I wanted to still use the back doors that are originally on this trailer ( the trailer didn’t come with the 2 smaller top doors ) , I was needing to know how to add metal frame work on top of the bottom doors so I have fully enclosed back doors. I did see the frame work in one of your other videos so I am confident that I can get the doors made . Thank you for your videos. 😊I do love those tall home made doors that you built. Beautiful !
I love your video on how you repurpose horse trailer to be coffee trailer. I have one question for you, how do you get that horse trailer to get inside garage since most garage door height are only 7ft tall?
@@mengchhornchhun2783 For storage, most people either store them under carports or RV storage spaces. My garage door happens to be extra tall so it isn’t a problem for me. Let’s say neither one is an option, you could remove the wheels and lower the trailer onto some dolly’s like these amzn.to/3AIpFIQ and then push it into the garage since that would likely lower it enough to get into a traditional garage. I hope that helps!
Thanks for posting about this! I live in the Mojave Desert. It sometimes gets up to 120 degrees out here. What can I use on the plywood to stop the extreme heat in the summer and the rain in the winter from messing up my back doors on the edges?🤔
@@MageeNick You just have to get it as close to sealed as you can. These were horse trailers and were never designed to be water tight. I always recommend that people store their trailer either under a roof or in storage somewhere when not in use. However, it should all last many years even if it’s out in the elements constantly. Hope that helps!
@@michellegerlick5653 I use 1/4” carriage bolts and use acorn nuts on them. The acorn nuts actually make it look fancy and not ugly. I know what you mean about not wanting to see the fasteners. The acorn nuts make the fasteners a feature instead of an eyesore. Here’s the ones I use: amzn.to/3tmb8Pt Other fasters I use are some self tapping sheet metal screws and for trim use aluminum rivets like these: amzn.to/48cVuVe
@carriagehousetrailers awesome! Thank you so much! You've gotta be 1 of the nicest people on the TH-cam channels. You actually engage and answer questions and trust me, it's appreciated! Thanks again!!
I was looking forward to this video! Thank you for sharing this with us . I found this video very helpful for my rebuild . 😊
Glad it helped! I bet your build will be great!

Do you have the link for that video? The one that shows how to add the metal framework around the wood? Much appreciated!!

I use an extreme weather deck stain on mine. It should do the trick, although you could coat the edges with epoxy to really seal the grain up.
@@carriagehousetrailers Thank you! That was my plan.
How do you keep the water from getting in or keep the doors are sealed?

Do you have A video of making the window with the hydraulic
I think I have the footage. I just need to get it edited and uploaded. Thanks for the reminder!
Thank you for responding when you do can you let me know 😊
Also what kind of bolts ,nails, or screws do you use from the inside to the outside. I don’t want to really want to see the ends on the outside
