My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Assuming you're talking about the barn door, it's clad in old, recycled corrugated roofing and the frame is made of metal fence poles I bought at Home Depot. I mitered and welded the corners and welded cross bars on the back side to attach the roofing. Then I took it to a local guy and had it powder-coated in black satin.
