This is the fully-covered frame with the door installed. The 4' x 6' door as specified in the kit was difficult to square and fit the opening. I added metal corner braces and a cross-beam, but two smaller 2-foot wide doors would still probably be easier to fit and use. If I have too much trouble I will rebuild the door later. You can't see it, but the door is held closed with a pivot hasp. It can be locked, but doesn't have to have a lock to keep the door closed.

The vents are standard aluminum 12" x 18" gable vents. They were about $10 each locally. I will be adding an attic-exhaust fan with thermostat to the other end. If the airflow isn't adequate with these vents I will add another pair directly above these.
