Following recent success with a framed T&G side gate I now need to replace carport doors my late father made some 40 years ago. Each door is approx. 77" x 46" (1955 x 1170) I will need to do a final trim to frame size on site as I will be making them in my workshop which is two counties away.
Anyways my question is please, advice on the best construction style (I am hoping to keep the cost down so will be a softwood) considered a rail and style, then boarded or the inset T&G as on the previous project. Further advice on timber sizes to ensure the door is stable depending on the style would be appreciated.
