JoieD, I'm sorry that it took me such a long time to get back to you, we had a very busy week-end
My husband is the builder so I'll answer the best that I can. We just used hinges that were recessed into the frame of the window and the coop frame, he really wasn't keen on doing it that way but they kept binding the other ways that we tried, we then attached the green trim.
The roof over the run is Tuftex from Lowes and it emits 35% light. We went with that one because our run/cop faces east and we were tring to take advantage of the morning sun to help with laying eggs in the winter, this way maybe we won't have to supplement any lighting.
