The problem: a 5′x20′ shed with a 3′ man door on the long side; tough to get in and out of with a car parked under the car port; impossible to get anything in and out with a car parked under the car port. An extremely poor design.
The solution: blow a hole in the side and cover it up with a sliding barn door. This allows for easier access with an adjacent car, eliminates door dings, and creates the opportunity to set up a work space in the shed.

A huge thanks goes out to kwah-li friends Bryan Jacob and John Barton for help on the project. Here is a final night shot after finally adding the 1×2′s to the door.
