My husband and I decided to build a vocal booth on a budget, and I thought I'd share in case someone is looking for non pvc option that's also portable.
We found these wooden screen doors for a steal at Home depot. We got one 36 inch and (2)32 inch ones. We also got some non-mortise hinges (which means you don't have to cave into the door). They were just a few dollars a piece and are super easy to attach.
WE started this project by first making sure the doors lined up. Then we measured to space the hinges as even as possible.
I pre-drilled all the holes because the doors are pine wood, then attached one side of the hinge to the middle door before standing it up to attach the next side.
At this point we realized this hinge would not work the way we wanted as far as the booth being collapsible, so we ordered a different kind of hinge.
While waiting we went ahead and added the soundproofing using these foam boards we had from a past studio project. ( you can find these and other options at home depot).
I cut the foam to fit snug to avoid using any other fasteners, then we added moving blankets for added soundproofing on the inside of the doors using staples.
Hubby wanted one side to have a window, so we got one of the smaller acrylic sheets at home depot. I also pre-drilled the holes for this and attached with wood screws. We did add more foam above and below the window.
These are the other hinges we got (i found these on amazon) and they are called lift-off hinges. I attached the part with the hinge pin to the middle door, and the other half to the last door so we could easily take it off and put it on.
Here is how that last door looks with the moving blanket and some foam panels attached using hot glue. Here is how the other 2 doors look. The moving blanket does cover both here, we just left the corner unstapled so it would fold easily. And here is the complete vocal booth assembly!
