Door opening with an angled wall on one side

[StephenM]

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

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.

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.

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 ?

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.

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.

Chop is likely right as the doorway won't allow a 45° angle on the right side Jamb

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.

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.

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.
