About Me

I wanted to thank everyone who was interested in my house construction. Despite how much I hate blogs this would be the easiest way for me to share the progress. No talk about me standing in line at Target or other stuff no one cares about. Just construction, Good and bad.

Doors & hardware

I hired Jason to hang the doors. He came on Friday and was able to get them all done. A few of the doors he had to cut off a few inches from the height. This way I was able to order a few standard height doors which saved me about $350.

When I got home from work yesterday I went to Lowes to buy the supplies for this weekend. Make that trip number 43. I purchased all of the door hardware, electrical cover plates, more grout sponges, plumbing supplies and some wood for the built in shelves.




There is always that point when I get back to my car in the Lowes parking lot when I'm wondering if all of this stuff is going to fit? You have to get creative. Who says a Passat is not a good construction vehicle?

All of the doors are in and they fit! The last thing I needed was an incorrect order on these doors. They are a 4 week lead time and non refundable.



Installing all of the door hardware was pretty damn easy. It took me about 5 minutes per door. Unfortunately one of the sets was missing all of the screws. I'll have to go exchange it.
