    Now there's more between you and the North Pole than a few strands of barb wire. Just in time too.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.

    I thought I read in a previous post about insulating the wall. Is that some sort of rigid foam board?

    Which is one of the reasons why I will have a 48ft wide door on the front it will be next to impossible to build anything inside that will be too large to get out of the building, that and the fact that lots of farm equipment can be 40 plus feet wide if it can not be folded up due to malfunctions the height plus the size makes this building worth 10 times more in an estate sale for after I'm gone

    Admiring the deceptive murals surrounding said door; I'm sure it will vex trespassers and miscreants...

    Absolutely.
    No one who lives near me or even in the neighboring counties would ever dream of entering a place with a chained door especially one chained from the inside even with open windows or in this case missing walls
