I made the opening and installed the jambs for this closet door over a year ago and planed on one 34" door but the boss felt that two smaller doors would work better which would mean 2 17" doors. As anyone with door experience knows they only come in even sizes. I could have cut down two 18's or used a 16 and a 18 or I could make two 17's. It was a good way to use up a couple of mediocre spalted maple boards and some blue stained pine. A little bigger crack between them than I would have like it was not that big a couple of months ago when I made them but the pine was a little on the wet side and it is shrinking, at least they won't bind up next summer when the humidity goes up.
