In this video I give you a simple step by step plan to build a stylish and secure garbage can enclosure to keep pests out and keep the garbage in.
I use all pressure treated lumber, with common lumber sizes so that you don't have to source anything custom.
For a list of the tools used in the video see all links below:
Bosch 12" Mitre Saw amzn.to/35JxCJU
Bosch Vacuum amzn.to/3ckqI0m
Milwaukee Tape Measure amzn.to/3bedQHz
Freud 12" Saw Blade amzn.to/35JTHZ3
Ridgid Impact Driver amzn.to/35L1bLf
Ryobi Narrow Crown Stapler amzn.to/3ciXZsB
Garbage Cans
Gate Hinges
Door Latch
Canon C100 (Camera used to film) amzn.to/2YNUGpx

I have seen a few of these on RU-vid, Yours by far is the best.

@hoohaa29 3 года назад

As I'm new to trying some of these types of things.. are there instructions anywhere? The video was so helpful... but having steps I can look at often help. I can write things down if nothing out there, but wondered if there were already. Thanks and great video!

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 3 года назад

Sorry this is a custom build. Not sure if listening to my audio and typing it out would help. But the best part I find with videos is you can pause and play back. The intro does give an exact material list.

@mark3dmtubs450 2 года назад

If I missed it I apologize ahead, but if you weren't recording, roughly what kind of time frame do you think this would take to build?

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer Год назад

Oh I'd say 2hrs

@mfrumento 3 года назад

I'm sorry for all the questions, if I want a pneumatic lift to keep the lid open and not slam shut, do you have a recommendation? Thanks so much!

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 3 года назад

Pneumatic I don't. But some door dampers on richelieu or lee valley tools to slow the lid closing. There's interior door openers but if it's outside this would likely compromise the actuator.

@randallsaunders8927 2 года назад

Would it be better to use pocket hole screw as opposed to screwing into the end grain when building the frame?

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 2 года назад

That's up to you, I would pocket hole something I was doing for a more detailed finish but easier assembly and time I did this method. It's still holding together perfectly and we have transitioned it into a toy bin for outside toys. Which is harder on the frame than if it was garbage.

@flex_nyc9885 Год назад

what do you do to make sure both front doors close and align evenly?My 2 front doors close fine and latch but one door is more out-front than the other door

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer Год назад

That is either the lumber twisting or the frame being out of square. I use the slide bolts on the doors to help hold them true.

@tonydeborahsanchez8956 2 года назад

I'd like to build this to store our trash cans outside but our HOA requires dimensions before they'll approve placement. Can you tell me the LxWxH dimensions of your completed project? Thanks!

Sure can, 49 w x 26d x 42h

Do you have a material list for this project that you could provide. 😊

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 6 месяцев назад

Did you watch the video? 17 seconds in I have a written list 😉

@EAGLESFAN710 3 года назад

How much lower is the front than the back? What is the pitch of the lid? I’ve never built anything like this before but ready to try it.

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 3 года назад

The lid has a 2" slope, but you can always adjust this based on your own garbage cans. We actually use this to store kids toys now outside!

@johncooper6246 3 года назад

@@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer It has a 2" slope so would you say it is about 5 degrees?

So, it has been a couple years. How is it holding up? What about wasps and other nasty pests?

@HandcraftedbyChrisPalmer 11 месяцев назад

It's been 4.5 years lol and the kids put all their outdoor toys in it. It's still solid and works great. Had 1 wasp nest in all the years. Great functionality

Circular saw and jig saw is usually my method. Otherwise you can do dado blades on the tablesaw
