Sauna door - simple construction... But if not made according to technological requirements, it can cause a draft in the room or loss of heat. The correctness of the assembly and installation of the door determines how comfortable the hygienic and healthy procedure will be.
The most popular raw material used in the construction of sauna doors is wood. The material given by nature is characterized by several undoubted advantages:
Glass doors are often installed in baths. The transparent and durable material has the following advantages:
The glass door leaf is absolutely transparent
An exclusive disadvantage of glass as a material for a bath door is that it is sold at a high price. It is practically impossible to make a glass sheet on your own, that is, not in a factory environment.
The raw material for the manufacture of doors for a bath room can be metal. It has the following positive characteristics:
But it is logical to use metal only in some cases, since it has a significant drawback. The material is not suitable for the construction of doors separating the steam room from the washing room. It is recommended to create only a structure installed at the entrance to the bath from it.
Sometimes the bath door is made of heat-resistant plastic, which has the following properties:
The disadvantage of sauna doors made of high-temperature resistant plastic is considered to be their unattractive appearance. But you can forget about this significant drawback if you do plastic door with imitation of natural wood.
The best materials from which you can make a door to a bathhouse are planks cut from oak, aspen and exotic trees... This raw material will not release warm air from the room, will not deteriorate under the influence of different temperatures and will serve for many years without problems. Material for the manufacture of a bath door structure often a pine tree. However, it is better to create doors from it at the entrance to the room. Pine is not suitable for the construction of a structure on the border of a washing and a steam room, since it can release resin when heated.
Create indoor doors with high humidity you need exclusively from high-quality wood. It is customary to install a structure made of oak or cedar on the southern side of the bathhouse in order to protect the tree from oblique rain drops and thereby prevent the material from rotting.
Parts of a wooden door are supposed to be connected with dowels, which will make it durable and prevent heat loss.
To understand what materials will be required in the process of making a wooden door, and how many of them will be needed, you need to draw up drawings with dimensions. If you plan to insulate the entrance structure with modern materials, then it makes sense to make it not small, as in the old days, but large - in full height person. The traditional parameters of the door to the bathhouse are 2 × 0.8 m.
The construction of a bath door structure requires the purchase of the following materials:
Wanting to put the door not inside the room, but at the entrance, you will have to purchase additional materials:
To assemble the door frame you will need:
The construction of a wooden door for a bath is carried out using certain tools:
Self-construction of a wooden door for a bath involves the following:
When starting the installation of a wooden door, it must be borne in mind that the structure should not be skewed. With tilted uprights, the door will not be able to open freely. So that the operation of the door structure is not difficult, it is installed in stages:
Such doors are made only of glass, the thickness of which is at least 8 mm. This material is heat resistant, that is, when exposed to high temperature it will not burst and the door will not deform. The glass door leaf should not be closed tightly, so that the room is not stuffy. For this, a space with a height of about 5 cm is created between the door and the threshold.
The choice of material is influenced by what kind of glass door you plan to make. It can be created from a single sheet and supplemented with metal hinges with a handle. If this option is not to your liking, then the door is made with glass inserts, that is, from bar or paneled boxes. You can independently create and install a one-piece glass sheet. It is advisable to purchase a sheet of standard sizes: 1.7 m high and 0.8 m wide.
In order for the glass door between the washing room and the changing room to look aesthetically pleasing, its canvas must be tinted or decorated with a pattern. Absolutely transparent glass is not worth buying for one more reason: it is invisible, and therefore everyone will hit it on the first visits to the bath.
In addition to the glass sheet, for the manufacture of the door you will need:
To assemble a door from the prepared materials, you will need several tools:
Glass door construction is manufactured in stages:
Making a door for a bathhouse made of wood or glass is a difficult task, but doable. Most often, the door leading to the bath room is made of wood, since only a few can use the glass cutter.
The doors to the bathhouse are the finishing touch in the construction of your own health complex. From their the right choice and installation depends on the comfort of your rest, so do not be lazy to find out all the nuances and observe step by step technology when installing with your own hands.
All the described requirements are met by solid wood doors. In addition to them, metal-plastic (for the entrance) and glass (only for the steam room) are used. Options from MDF, metal and other similar materials cannot be used in the bath, since in such conditions they turn out to be impractical and unsafe.

Openings in self-built saunas, as a rule, differ from standard ones. Therefore, before making a door and a box for it, it is worth carrying out basic calculations:
If the result obtained differs from the standard models by only 1–2 cm, you can make standard door and just use thicker bars to secure the box in the opening.
A wooden door is the most common option for a bath. Despite the existence of new technologies, wood remains the most popular material for all types of sauna doors: entrance, interior, steam room. In order for them to last a long time, you should not be satisfied with inexpensive models, as they will quickly swell from moisture. You need to choose the right breed, for example:
Sometimes a light fragrant linden is used for doors, but it rots pretty quickly. Analogs from pine are also popular, but together with a pleasant smell, such wood gives off a sticky resin. Spruce is not so resinous, but less moisture resistant, so it is not suitable for a bath either.
Regardless of what kind of wood you prefer, the array must be of high quality, without knots, otherwise they will all fall out during operation. The optimum moisture content of the material is 15%.
Wooden doors of a type-setting type are assembled from identical parts, for example, a grooved floorboard. This is the best way for a beginner to make doors. Despite the simplicity of work, typesetting canvases can look very attractive, especially if you choose decorative forged hinges and handles for them. They look best in traditional log cabins (real or imitations) in a rustic style.
Original entry added to the bathhouse with a simple type-setting door The lacquered front door makes it more noble A simple type-setting door to the bathhouse looks stylish thanks to brutal fittings Such an original door to the bathhouse can be made from the remains of lining and boards Such a brutal door is perfect for a rest room.

Necessary materials:
Consider the process of making a type-setting door standard size 0.8x2 m:
Finishing interior doors for a bath is carried out with environmentally friendly impregnations, mineral oils, waxes. But it is better to leave the door to the steam room untreated, since there is always a risk that harmful components will begin to be released due to the temperature.
We start making the door frame:
We proceed to the installation of the door leaf in the box:
Your door is now ready for active use.
It is much more difficult to make wooden doors with panels than type-setting ones. Here you will have to connect a lot of curvilinear parts and very clearly maintain the geometry. Therefore, it is worth taking on such work only after you have experience in the manufacture of other types of wooden doors.
Since the articulations of the parts are especially sensitive to increased humidity and temperature, such models can only be installed in the dressing room and rest room. At the entrance to the bath, steam room or shower, they will last much less than the prescribed period.
The steering wheel on the door is an easy way to make it unusual Classic doors with simple panels are suitable for changing rooms and lounges By changing the size and proportions of the panels, you can create a completely different doors The door with asymmetrical panels looks very stylish This door design is the most durable option for a bath.
If making paneled door you cannot afford it yet, you can order a simple canvas and assemble the box yourself. It is made using the same technology as in the case of type-setting doors.
A frame door with insulation inside is most often assembled to create an entrance group. It consists of an inner frame, divided into cells to accommodate insulation (best of all stone wool) and outer skin. Its manufacture is a little more complicated than assembling a type-setting door, but easier than a panel door.
As external decorative cladding, you can use wooden planks, lining, thin grooved boards, MDF panels, metal sheets.
Required tools:
Necessary materials:
Consider the manufacture of a door measuring 1.92x0.82 m for a box with parameters 2x0.9 m:
If the doors will stand at the entrance, you can treat them with a stain, a high-quality antiseptic and cover them with several layers of varnish.
It is best to install doors made of tempered glass or triplex (glued from two layers) in the shower and steam rooms of the bath. For the manufacture of such structures, a specialized machine is required for processing the edges of sheets with a large thickness, as well as an oven for hardening the material after drilling the mounting holes, so it is impossible to make them in artisanal conditions. But you can order a canvas from a glass company and independently supplement it with fittings and install it in the opening.
Glass doors are always a win decorative solution as they give the sauna a modern and stylish look. It also keeps the temperature well in the steam room: when the inner side of the canvas heats up to 80 ° C, the outer one remains warm to the touch (about 40 ° C). In addition, the glass door is additional source natural light in a small, cramped steam room / shower room that does not always have a separate window.
The transparent glass door of the steam room looks good next to the same shower stall The glass door can be decorated with any sandblasting pattern
The thickness of the glass should be in the range of 6–12 mm, but 8–10 mm is most preferable. A thinner blade is easier to break, and a thicker blade will be too heavy and lead to faster wear on the hinges. The width of the door is limited by the wear resistance of the fittings, experts recommend choosing door leaves no more than 0.8 m wide. Such a wide heavy door will last longer if it is hung on 3 hinges. If you want to enclose the steam room with a glass wall, the door can be made narrower or double-leafed, and the additional canvases can be installed permanently. In such cases, the width of the addition is limited only by the area of the corridor (workers simply cannot carry a very wide and high canvas inside).
The glass does not have to be transparent, it can be decorated with a sandblast pattern, or completely matted. In addition, manufacturers offer colored glass, painted over in the mass (along the entire thickness of the material): graphite and bronze. There are options made of enlightened glass, without a greenish tint at the end.
Glass companies also often offer engraving on the canvas, but since such decor weakens the canvas, it is better not to use it in steam rooms. Options decorated with film, photo printing, glued fragments are also not worth considering, since high temperature and humidity have a bad effect on such decorations.
Glass companies produce doors different types opening: swing, sliding, pendulum. It is best to give preference to the swing option, since the most compact and durable fittings are used for them. The use of other mechanisms is an additional risk of burns on the guide.
Before ordering a glass door, complete the opening to the steam room. Only after that call the measurer, let him take measurements with an accuracy of 1 mm. If, after such preparation, the door does not fit in size, you will have the right to exchange the door leaf under warranty.

If you already know how wooden doors are mounted, you only need to familiarize yourself with the main differences:
Mandatory nuances:
Now you can make a beautiful and reliable bath door on their own... Follow the instructions and try to perform all actions as carefully as possible, and then the new door will delight you for decades with its appearance and flawless work.
The bath door is a fairly straightforward design. At the same time, it must be done truly competently so that the heat does not leave the steam room while you are taking water procedures.
In Russia, door structures for baths have always been made of wood. It is wood that has a full set of properties that are ideal for making doors to rooms where temperature drops and high humidity are always present. It has an excellent appearance, is easy to process, and is characterized by impeccable environmental friendliness.
Having decided to make the doors to the bath with your own hands, choosing a tree as a material, keep in mind that not all of its species are suitable for these purposes. Experts advise using aspen, birch, oak, durable and strong exotic trees. Such material practically does not dry out and does not deform during operation, guarantees reliable protection of the bath from drafts, creates a special atmosphere in the steam room, which makes washing very pleasant for a person. It is allowed to use pine wood. But only for the manufacture of entrance doors.
For the steam room, it is still better to use other tree species, which accumulate moisture much more slowly and serve for many decades. However, now there are many special compounds - antiseptics, designed to treat the inside of doors. Such compositions significantly extend the service life of wooden door structures. Also these days, doors are made from less traditional materials. Previously, they were not used for baths. But times have changed, and now it is not so rare to see baths with entrance structures made of metal, glass or plastic.
Doors made of heat-resistant special glass perfectly tolerate high temperatures and require minimal personal care. Such designs are especially popular in Turkish baths. But in Russian doubles they have not yet "taken root". For all its advantages, glass products have two "minuses": their cost is quite high, it is unrealistic to make such doors on your own at home.
Thermoplastic products are characterized by excellent performance characteristics - modern material, not afraid of temperature changes and water. The plastic is durable and durable. But in the Russian bath, it is worth noting that the constructions made of it look “unnatural”. It does not help that the plastic surface in the steam room can be made "like wood". Visually, it looks like wood, but it does not provide lovers of bath procedures with that “natural” warmth for which natural wood constructions are so famous.
Do-it-yourself reliable doors for a bath can be made of metal. More durable and durable material hard to find. Metal structures are suitable for installation at the entrance. And it is better to install wooden doors in the steam room itself.
As you can see from our short review, it is best to use wood for the manufacture of entrance structures to the steam room and the entrance to the bath. It fits in all respects. Next, we will figure out exactly how to make a high-quality door to the bath with our own hands, using natural wood... But first, let's take a look at the special requirements for door structures leading to the steam room and other bath rooms.
First of all, the doors for the premises of interest to us must withstand without problems elevated temperatures and constant humidity. The wood species that meet this requirement have been listed above. Note that, among other things, wood products have an excellent healing effect on the human body. Unfortunately, the most valuable types of wood can be expensive. Not everyone can afford to buy them.
To reduce the cost of natural materials and at the same time make your bath ideal for receiving wellness procedures, it is recommended to make a door leaf from less expensive wood, and then clap it with valuable wood clapboard. You should also take care of the fittings that will be used. For these purposes, it is necessary to select products that are highly resistant to moisture and are characterized by a low thermal conductivity.
In other words, you cannot put metal latches and handles on the door to the steam room, for example. They will 100% cause you to burn when the bath is heated. Optimally, when the door fittings are taken from wood. Wood door hinges are difficult to make. Therefore, it is recommended to make them from brass alloys that are not afraid of moisture. Metal hinges are also allowed. But they must be treated with special paint with anti-corrosion properties.
In terms of geometric dimensions, the door for a bath is always made smaller than for ordinary residential buildings, so that it can retain maximum heat. The recommended parameters of door bath structures are as follows:
It is desirable to manufacture outward-opening single-leaf doors that close and open quickly and easily. Having found out all the features of the bath doors, we can begin to describe the process of their manufacture on our own.
We begin work with creating a door leaf at the entrance to. A similar door can be made both to the steam room and to the relaxation compartment, if there is one. We use sheet pile boards 4–5 cm thick. They need to be cut to the required length. At the same time, keep in mind that the total height of your door structure will include the heights of the strapping beams and the leaf itself. That is, the length of the latter is always taken less (143 cm with a total door height of 150 cm).
Having prepared the boards, we make the canvas in the steam room according to the scheme below:
After a couple of days, we check the made structure for irregularities, small gaps and other minor flaws. Using a planer, we smooth out the unevenness found, and with a mixture of ordinary sawdust and PVA we close up the existing cracks.
The locks and handles on the doors to the steam room and other compartments, as well as the strapping, we will also make ourselves. We take wooden blocks, cut them to the required length. Vertical bars for strapping must correspond in length to the total height of the door, horizontal bars - to the width of the entrance structure. An important point! The length of the extreme horizontal bars (bottom and top) is taken less by 7 cm (53 cm with a door width of 60 cm).
In the bars, you will need to select a groove. This is done in two stages: a narrow groove with a depth of about 2.5 cm and a width of 2.6 cm is selected; select the second groove (over the first) with a depth of about 1 cm and a width of 5 cm. The need for two grooves arises if you want to sheathe the door. In one "groove" the lining will fit, in the other - directly grooved boards.
The grooves are selected with an end mill. It is also necessary to make a stepped tenon on horizontal bars, which must fit exactly into the groove. Now we just need to assemble the made strapping into one piece and check it with a square for the accuracy of the angles. If the corners are not perfectly straight, you will need to sharpen the groove slightly.
It seems that you will make the locks on the door, as well as handles, without any problems. They can be cut with a simple hacksaw according to your own sketch. If you don't want to mess around with small work, just buy ready-made wooden fittings from the store. You just have to make a frame for the door and install your own construction in the opening.
Many, tired of the bustle of the city, try to find an "outlet" for themselves in a private house or on suburban area and often decide to build a bathhouse. In this case, it often happens that we do not know how to carry out all the stages of its construction correctly, and in particular, how to make a door for a bath with our own hands.
In this article, we will tell you how you can make such a structure with your own hands, what dimensions it should have, and much more.
The bath must have at least 2 doors - the entrance door and the one that will lead to the steam room.
The door to the steam room has its own specifics:
Whatever you plan to build a bathhouse, doors for a bathhouse with your own hands, first of all, should reliably keep heat and steam in it, and only after that serve as an interior item for this structure. In this regard, bath doors should be wooden and deaf and preferably made according to old Russian technology ().
Advice! If your bath will be heated "on white", then it is recommended to install a door with one sash in it. If you prefer a smoky bath, then the door in it should be made with two doors.
When making a door to the steam room with your own hands, pay attention to its dimensions.
To keep the heat better, it will need to be made several sizes smaller than for a living space:
In the steam room, it is advisable to install single-leaf structures that open outward. The gap from the door to the floor should not exceed 5 cm.
For the steam room, it is advisable to make the door from linden, alder or aspen. You can use and conifers wood, but then you will need to treat their surface so that the resin does not stand out.
Required materials for the manufacture of such a structure:
The door leaf to the bathhouse is made in a certain sequence.
We will now tell you how to make a door to the bathhouse with your own hands:
Note! The spike should be slightly larger, so that later, when planting, it could be added to the harness.
The assembly of the bath door is reduced to assembling the strapping around the canvas.
For this:
Note! No gaps between the groove and the tenon are allowed.
The side of the door, which will be exposed to steam, must be protected with a vapor barrier material, on top of which you can then sheathe the structure with thin boards. A structure that will not be afraid of moisture can also come from a frame, which will need to be sheathed on both sides with special sheets of fiberglass.
The space between them will need to be filled with foam or mineral wool.
The main factor when installing the door to the steam room is the arrangement of the threshold. Ideally, its height should not exceed 15 cm. As for the structure that will separate the steam room from the washing room, in this case it is not necessary to make a threshold.
It is customary to leave a small gap between the floor and the door in the lower part for the passage of cold air into the steam room. The height of such a gap should not be more than 5 cm.
The front door to the bathhouse is assembled with your own hands using a jig, using ridges on the logs and grooves in the casing, in order to exclude the possibility of deformation of the structure during the shrinkage of our structure. We will make a box for the opening from square or rectangular thick beams. In the opening, it will need to be installed using the ridge method.
In the walls of our building, on the lower horizontal log, make nests and cut out the ridges. In the future, you will insert bars with pre-selected spikes into them. Place a massive log at the bottom of the doorway, then use it as a threshold.
If your bathhouse was built of bricks, then you should make the boxes for the doorway more massive. For these purposes, take boards with a thickness of 6 cm and a width of 10 cm.
The depth of the quarters that are selected from the workpiece must correspond to the dimensions of the bath structures. Their width, on average, should not exceed 3 cm. The connection must be made with the help of thorns.
It is necessary to assemble and install the box in such a way that the bath door can open outward. Level the box and fix it to the wall. When adjusting the structure, if possible, make sure that the box fits as tightly as possible to the jambs and the threshold.
Now you know that you can independently not only build a bathhouse, but also make a door in it so that it can maximally contribute to the retention of heat in this room. All you may need to implement your plan is a little patience, attentiveness and a little free time, and at the end of the work you will receive an ideal product that will help you to extend the service life of the structure you have erected several times (
A reliable door to the bathhouse, made of wood or other material with your own hands, not only serves to retain heat inside the building. It is also an element of the overall design that must meet the aesthetic needs of the owner. The choice of material for the bath door should be given special attention: the entrance can be made from a processed grooved board or lining, sheathed with insulation. Internal doors do not need heat-insulating properties, therefore both wooden and glass doors to the steam room are considered equally good.
Classic wooden door for a bath with your own hands can be made without special skills. But for this you have to choose high-quality wood that requires minimal processing. The lumber should be free of knots, cracks or rot marks, and the surface should be flat. The boards must be well dried, otherwise the door made of them will lead.
The best materials for making doors:
If the owner has the skills of a carpenter and necessary tools and equipment, then he can afford to independently make a paneled structure from edged boards.
When making a door for a bath in the entrance group, you can choose any kind of wood: it is less exposed to high temperatures than the entrance structure to the steam room. Internal canvases are best made of hardwood (oak, linden, etc.), which do not emit resin.
To insulate the canvas, an EPS sheet, roll insulation and upholstery(leatherette). When making interior doors in the bathhouse, they are not needed.
There are several ways to make a door leaf available to a person with minimal woodworking skills:
Door installation in the opening consists of the following steps:
To make the door to the bathhouse, you need to sequentially perform all these operations. The end result depends on the accuracy of the work and the accuracy of fitting all parts door block.
To complete each stage of the work, you need your own tools, but if the farm does not have complex devices, you can rent them. To collect the input or inner door to the bathhouse with your own hands step by step, you will need the following:
Bath door fittings may differ from those used for hanging doors in the house. The hinges serve as a decorative element, and the design wooden bath allows the use of forged and shaped products. Handles can be made from wood yourself. When buying ready-made ones, you should prefer the same material, because in a steam room it heats up not as much as metal.
The size of the door for a bath is determined by the size of the opening. For accuracy, measurements are taken in two places vertically and horizontally. If the door needs to be inserted into the bathhouse from a log house, then the opening should be prepared in advance, and then measurements should be made:
It is easier to determine the dimensions of the door leaf after installing the frame in the opening by measuring the vertical and horizontal distances in the vestibule.
The simplest option Do-it-yourself steam room doors - solid wood shield. To make it, you need to select grooved boards and lay them out on a flat surface. At the ends there are curved stripes - traces of tree rings. Adjacent parts should be positioned so that the direction of the rings is opposite to each other. This will prevent the door slats from being exposed to moisture.
The grooves of the boards and their protrusions must be connected so that a minimum gap remains. Cut 2 bars, the length of which is equal to the width of the door leaf. The bars are mounted on a boardboard at the top and bottom of the structure. Connection can be made different ways:
To assemble a door from a lining, boards with a thickness of at least 2.5 cm are needed, with selected quarters on the sides facing the inside of the canvas. The length of the vertical bars of the strapping should be equal to the height of the web, and the horizontal ones - to its width. Connect the frame parts in a half-wood way, selecting a piece of wood at the ends of the planks. Grease the recesses with glue, connect the parts and tighten with clamps. After drying, drill through holes and insert wooden dowels into them with glue.
Saw the lining in equal segments. Their length is equal to the distance between the boards in the selected quarters (vertically or horizontally). At the extreme lining, cut off the side with the groove, and put the part in the frame, in the groove of the selected quarter. Dock the rest of the elements, tightly driving the spikes into the grooves. Cut the last plank so that it fits snugly into the remaining gap. Attach a wide glazing bead along the perimeter of the frame.
When making such a canvas, it is worth considering that for its insulation, a heat-insulating layer must be placed inside the door. Therefore, you need to prepare an EPS sheet or other material in advance. Make the frame from a 3x3 cm bar:
Attach plywood or MDF to the frame on one side of the door. Put insulation between the bars and foam the gaps between the EPS and the strips. Close the top with a sheet of plywood and attach it with self-tapping screws along the perimeter and to the crossbars.
If the door leaf to the bathhouse is made of boards or lining, then it must be insulated in order to reduce heat loss during heating. For insulation, felt, batting or foamed polyethylene are used. The material must be measured according to the size of the door, cut and fixed on the canvas with furniture staples or nails, leaving free edges at least 5 cm wide.
Leatherette is well suited for door trim. The material is cut in such a way that it is possible to bend the edges under the insulation by 2-2.5 cm. In order for the upholstery to lie flat, fasten the material from the middle. Fasteners are decorative upholstery nails with large heads. To form a convex pattern between the nails, you need to pull the fishing line tightly.
Along the perimeter of the door, you need to attach leatherette rollers, inside which insulation is laid. The edges of the rollers are nailed to the door with decorative nails with a small step (5-10 cm). The seam can be made decorative: fill the nails closely, in 2 rows, in a zigzag, etc.
The door frame to the bathhouse is made of a thick block (at least 5 cm thick). Along the outer edge of the parts, on the side where the door will open, you need to select quarters along the entire length. Their depth should be equal to the thickness of the canvas, and the width is about 3 cm. Connect the door frame parts in the corners with screws or nails, after removing part of the inner ledge in the vestibule.
Installation of the door frame is carried out on the anchor, if the bath is made of concrete or brick. The box must be fixed in the opening with wedges, leveling in two planes vertically. Check the levelness of the sill and top bar. Drill 2 holes in the sidewalls for the anchors and insert the fasteners. Mounting foam fill in the gaps.
If the bath is from a log house, then on the wrong side of the sides it is necessary to make a groove for the previously installed casing bar. To do this, make parallel cuts, and choose the wood with a chisel. The box is attached to the bar, and not to the logs of the log house. The sill and headrail must be nailed to the casing. Such a design of the doorway in the bath is not blown out, and it is impossible to foam the gaps.
After installing the frame, you need to hang the bath door. When using shaped hinges, the curtain should be installed in the opening and fixed with wedges in order to obtain a uniform gap of 2-3 mm around the perimeter. Attach the hinge bracket with nails or self-tapping screws to the frame, and the shaped strip to the canvas.
If the loops are overhead, then you will need to make grooves for them on the edge of the canvas and in the narthex. Attach the hinge cards in the recesses so that they do not protrude above the surface of the wood. The pin parts are fixed on the frame with the spikes upward, and the counterpart is fixed on the canvas.
In conclusion, platbands are attached around the box, which cover the junction of the wall and the box. The door handles are placed at a comfortable height. If necessary, mount a padlock, latch or bolt hook.
