The Risinger Build Ep 20 – Trim Carpentry: Doors, Floors, Casing & Shelves

From The Build Show.

Welcome back to The Risinger Build! In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most rewarding yet challenging phases of construction—the trim stage. We’ll cover everything from baseboards and casing details to our approach for seamless pocket door installations using the Eclisse pocket door system.

Our goal? A clean, modern transitional look that blends classic and contemporary styles. We’re using custom-trimmed poplar, 5/8” thick baseboards, and solid core doors to ensure durability and craftsmanship. Plus, we’ll reveal our custom pocket door guide system, a simple yet game-changing alternative to standard bottom track holders.

Key topics covered:
✅ Installing hardwood floors before trim – Why it eliminates extra molding
✅ Pocket door installation hacks – Our tried-and-true method for smooth operation
✅ Baseboard & casing thickness tips – How to create a clean, shadow-line detail
✅ Closet customization strategy – Why we left the master closet blank for future flexibility

If you’re into high-performance home building, finish carpentry techniques, or just love seeing expert craftsmanship in action, this episode is for you!
