Double Doors

[Jeff May]

Looking for some ideas/thoughts on what you all may have done for double entry doors. Currently I have a 10' overhead door that will be coming out and I want to install a nice set of double doors, and I would like to make them myself.
I would like to have an opening size of 5 or 6' and would want them reasonably attractive and sturdy.
Any pics, thoughts, or help would be appreciated.
Thank all,
Jeff

Are you talking about carriage doors or hinged doors. A couple of garages here the owner built carriage doors from stock material. They found the window units and built the doors from there. One was " derelict garage" I think. Not sure what the other thread was called but the doors or garage were a blue color. Use the search function for carriage doors. I am sure you will get some ideas. Not sure how to do a link from my phone

Good luck and let us know what you do.

Here is my new shed/garage. I had them build me 8x7 carriage doors instead of a garage door. Maybe this will give you an idea...

Here are some I made for my shop, maybe you'll get some ideas from the thread:
