What happens here
A custom bifold door is constructed from a large sheet of maple plywood. Lines are marked and then cut part-way through the plywood using a track saw, creating a louvered effect. To prevent the thin door from warping or bending, 1 1/2-inch plywood strips are glued and screwed (using pocket holes) around the perimeter, acting as a rigid frame. This technique reinforces the door and provides a solid surface for attaching hardware. Hinges are installed to allow the door to swing open, and a modern black handle is attached.
Goal: Create and install a functional and decorative pantry door
