Morning gang,
I'm building a fishing platform for the bow of my boat. My question is how to install carpet where my storage hatch doors fit. I would like them to fit snug and was curious if anyone has some advice. Is there some standard rule of thumb for gap clearance between the hatch covers and the deck? I'll be installing ss piano hinge on the outter edges port and starboard sides. and when the doors are close they will rest and be supported on inner 1 x 2" frame rails.
Thanks in advance!
I painted the treated wood with epoxy paint to seal and keep moisture out.
