Hanging a Single Door Frame and Hinged Door on Polytunnel

Once you have built your polytunnel door, it is time to build the door frame on the end hoop and hang the door - this video shows you how.
Start by measuring 16in either side of centre on the end hoop or door rail (depending on the size of tunnel) and making a mark. Dig a hole underneath each of these marks. Place the first timber door post in the first hole with the inside edge lined up with the mark. Mark the post under the hoop/door rail and cut on this mark. Re-position the door post and, using a P Clip around the hoop/door rail, bolt the post to the clip - make sure that the leg of the 'P' runs down the outside face of the door post. Backfill the hole.
Hang the door on this post leaving adequate room at the bottom for the door to open without catching.
Place the second door post in the second hole and hold up to the door leaving a gap of approximately 6mm between the door and post. Hang the post using the same method as used when hanging the first post and backfill the hole.
Fit the lintel between the two posts 6mm above the door using a nail plate across the joins on the inside, and a 6in nail through the posts into the lintel.
