The space under the stairs in the barn works great for storing my welders and I figured it made a lot of sense to build a door to help protect them and that I can lock up at the end of the day. First I needed to change the framing to give a little more depth to the space so my TIG welder will fit. Then I enclose the inside with plywood. I knew the door would be heavy and need a strong jamb to support it, so I used 2.5 x .25" angle, which I cut and welded in place. I built the door frame out of square tubing and welded on hinges to attach it to the jamb. I filled in the inside of the door with old barn wood and lastly I recessed a metal Coug Head into the center of the door. Go Cougs!
