Hi Friends,
It's been a long fourth dimension since my final post virtually the cupboard makeover. It's distressing to tell I haven't done much here, non only inwards the closet, but inwards the entire room.
That starting fourth dimension moving-picture exhibit was the ane I showed you lot for the reveal, you lot tin flaming depository fiscal establishment tally the post virtually the closet makeover correct HERE.
However, this side past times side picture, alongside a wider sentiment shows only about aspects that I strategically cropped out on the divulge picture.
I told you lot on that post that I was using a carpeting to meliorate trend the closet, I didn't attach the baseboards either. I'll exercise that later on installing the novel floor.
The top was opened upward because, that's the side past times side step: Installing the door.
As I told you lot before, it's going to last a sliding door, together with then I needed a header where to hang the door runway from.
The slice of woods on the ceiling, inwards the inwards a higher house picture, is a 2 x vi that was attached to a ceiling joist.
That 2 x vi volition serve to anchor only about other long 2 x ten from where the railing for the sliding door volition last attached.
The 2 x ten was going to last installed at the real top, inwards front end of the cupboard together with continuing on the entire wall. The studs on the wall were marked. This is real of import because is a super heavy piece, together with that's what's gonna back upward the door alongside all its hardware.
After mark the studs, I also installed a temporary modest back upward where the large slice of woods would lay spell nosotros (me together with my husband), would secure it to the wall. The modest slice of woods on the moving-picture exhibit inwards a higher house is only a remnant I used to mensurate that space.
I bought the 2 x ten x xvi from the Home Depot, that board is heavy, I couldn't conduct keep it alone! I stained it, in ane lawsuit dry out I began mark the spots to install the hardware for the track. The inwards a higher house moving-picture exhibit is of the Box Rail Brackets, I bought 5 of them, they each come upward alongside ane screw, together with that's what nosotros used.
The opening of the cupboard is 48". I bought a 8-Foot Trolley Track. I positioned it slightly below the middle of the board. Then, bringing the Box Rail Brackets, took the measurements where to drive the screws for the brackets. This is how it looked at this point, in ane lawsuit nosotros brought it to the room.
The positions of the studs were transfered to the board together with pre-drills were done earlier bringing this heavy slice onto the wall.
The Trolley Track was passed through the brackets earlier installing it on the wall.
One End Cap was placed at the real destination of the track. I bought ii of these, the other volition last used on the other side later on installing the door.
Now it was fourth dimension to select this babe to the wall.
These are the screws nosotros used to mountain it to the wall. Sorry virtually the blurry pic.
And hither is a pic of my hubby driving ane of the screws.
Let me tell you, nosotros couldn't conduct keep done it without this wooden back upward together with only about other nosotros installed unopen the cupboard that I didn't accept a moving-picture exhibit of. The slice of woods summation the runway were HEAVY, alongside my weak arms, this would've been impossible for me to tackle. I couldn't fifty-fifty drive those long screws! :/
Here is a unopen upward of the earlier together with after:
This part, wasn't difficult to do. The difficult business office was working alongside those heavy items.
This side past times side moving-picture exhibit looking upward the cupboard space. I all the same postulate to pigment that 2 x vi on the ceiling.
And hither is the entire wall. The door on the left side is the ane to move into the room.
It took us a long fourth dimension to install this header because my hubby was sick, he went through a double human knee surgical physical care for that didn't permit him to exercise much work, together with every bit I said, I couldn't conduct keep done without his help.
I'm straight off working on the door together with on those floors, mayhap side past times side calendar week I'll last writing virtually those.
The next are all the links to each of the projects done inwards this room:
