Step 3Tools and Hardware
You'll also appreciate:
A good quality cordless drill
hammer
straightedge
carpenter's pencil or pen
measuring tape
work gloves
safety glasses
For the drill, you'll need several sizes of drill bits (in my case, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, and 1/2" ) and a Philip's head driver bit. Since you'll be switching between drilling pilot holes to driving screws, you will find a quick-change bit quite useful. If you do have access to a drill press, then a 3" hole saw will be quickest for cutting the entrance hole.
Hardware needed includes exterior grade wood screws, nails to form the door hinge, and larger duplex style nails to secure the door.
