against a solid wall with the numbered edges facing out. Placed in the order they
are numbered from 1-7
board, making sure you don’t glue between the boards as it may seep through
the grooves. Place the top rail back onto the glued boards making sure it stays
flush with the top edge. Begin at one edge using the supplied screws and drive
the screws through the pre-drilled holes in the rail. This rail will now be your
reference point for the other parts.

Step: 7. Attach the bottom rail in the same way as step 6 keeping it flush with
the bottom.
Step: 8
Glue and attach the middle rail, and position using the diagonal support
rails to align the rail correctly, making sure all continue to fit squarely. Once
positioned, securely attach it to the middle of the door with screws.
Step: 9 Glue and attach the diagonal rails to the top and bottom of the door
between the horizontal rails, and screw securely into place. At this point, your
door is finished! You are ready to stain and finish as desired.
Step: 3. Push the boards together, making sure the tongue is inserted fully into
the groove of each. Continue working across the door, aligning the boards so
they are tight and flush on the ends and flat against the wall

Step: 1. Unpack the pieces and lay out so you can see the labels and numbers.
All boards are marked and drilled.

Step: 4.
After all the vertical pieces are assembled, find and place the rail
labeled “top” on the top edge of the assembled door with the label facing down.
Next, find and place the bottom rail at the bottom edge of the door, and then do
the same with the middle style, placing it about midway up from the bottom.
You’ll align these in the next steps so the fit isn’t as important yet.

Step: 5.
Place the diagonal braces on the door beginning with the top brace
and then the lower brace, adjusting so that all parts fit roughly where they will
be attached.

Step: 2. Begin assembly by laying the long, tongue-and-grooved boards out
Step: 6. Lift the top rail and run glue beads through the middle of each vertical
