Cooling a Shed with Minimal Ventilation

[Evadig]

Can you just pull the siding off at least one of the doors, and replace it with 19 gauge 1/2” hardware cloth? A 3x10 roll should be more than enough, depending on the width of your door.

There’s no siding; it’s just paint and OSB. I’ve been thinking about making a screen door for it though!

Ah, ok. I was looking at the pic. Can the OSB be pulled off, leaving the (minimal) framing, and then attach the HWC? My phone has decided not to let me edit anything, but I’m looking at the OSB on back/siding look on front. One of those doors.

That would be a huge ventilation opening.

Oh, maybe there is siding then? I guess I never thought of it as siding. Putting hardware fabric on the door frame is a good idea.

I actually was looking for temporary relief, though, because I won't have the time to work on it for at least another week .

I hear ya.

It takes a while to find and install a screen door, and once it’s up, a newborn kitten could bust through it. But you’re on the right track, I think!
