StephenM Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I'm trying to make a door opening with an angled wall on one side (see attached photo), but everything I've tried ends up being squared off. Any tips how to create a door opening with an angled wall? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 That looks a little tricky. You might need to create a false floor level to make that work. Definitely not an easy solution though. Hopefully someone has done that before and has a brilliantly simple solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Is this what you are after? I managed to do it without much trouble. Post the plan because there could be all sorts of settings getting in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is the right side of the doorway over the sidewalk that is presenting the issue. I suppose if you were to square the wall on the main structure it would work.... Is that what you were getting at ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenM Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Not quite, I'm trying to get the right side of the 6568 opening to be a 45 degree angle, but it just ends up being square instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I think you will actually need to do what I originally suggested and not use a doorway and use a 2nd level to define the top of the doorway and a room divider to create the opening.

Kbird1 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Chop is likely right as the doorway won't allow a 45° angle on the right side Jamb M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay thanks, so anything above the door opening would be a new floor? Not sure if you can help with how I would then go about making this wall (photo attached), if everything above the door opening is considered a 2nd level. I've also attached a photo of how the actual roof sits in relation to the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Yes the walkway in front of the stores will be a room that is set to something like 84" with an open below room above above that is only a foot or so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkMc Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Sorry misunderstood earlier. An alternative -Added two sided exterior partition wall, made pony wall at opening, adjust wall intersections, had to add a little parallel wall on left side. Don't know if it's easier since I hate wall intersections but attached anyway. Angle wall.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
