Hi all. Yes: once again, I am starting from scratch and cannot find all the info I need when searching the www ... and I know you guys will help me (?!).

We currently have an ugly, swing, corrugated iron garage door that faces north/west so gets a lot of sun, and I want to hide it with timber battens.

I need to know what timber to use (Karri? Merbau?), what would be a good width (to do vertically) batten, what gap is required between each one .... and I am sure there are a million things I haven't thought about!

Any help would be appreciated, even if just links to a good fact sheet or something that will help me!

Thanks!
