Widen shed door

Have to widen the doors of my shed.. if I have to. The rider would fit, but not the deck. 46” deck. My girlfriend just says saw out the bottom of the shed doors/frame where the deck is getting caught. Ahaa. Don’t wanna walk out to a skunk in here or something with some giant holes in the bottom. Is it as easy as circular sawing out a new wider opening about 4” on each side and slapping the old doors back on there with a wider piece in the center to make them shut? Or new doors and all? New header I imagine? Amateur bob the builder here. Any advice is greatly appreciated! submitted by /u/grapeicecreame [link] [comments]
