What kind of room is that? Honestly looks a little small for a man cave...Anyway I'd hang some alder doors and be done

Yeah it is pretty small! It works well though. I could take the basement but I generally don't like basements since they're so removed from everything else and it's undergoing reconstruction anyway. I'm at my parents' house since I'm just a wee (well, kinda) lad, so I'm happy with what I got!

I'd rather not use a shower curtain since that'd be really visible and ghetto, and doors are either a)too much or b)too large for such a small room with reasonable traffic (since my nephews like to hangout with me in there, a lot of people come in, I wish they wouldn't tho lol).

Err....yeah, Zebo has a point!, it could also be considered a dog box mate, man caves are normally the garage! That looks too small for a bar, couch and pole dancing!

🙁 I know it, one day when I get a real income and I have a real profession and house Ill get a real, sweet man cave.
 
Get standing life-sized cardboard cut-outs of the cast from some AWESOME movies and form a barracade with them.
 
You need to stack up pillows and boxes to fill the entry-way, and then tape up a piece of paper that says "No girlz allowed"
 
Get a pocket door or a bifold door. Putting a curtain there is gonna look cheap and shitty. Especially if you do it on the entrance to your man cave. You should rename it your lack-of-man cave if you can't muster up the man-skills to put a real door on. That's what everyone is gonna think when they see your ghetto curtain.

I'd opt for a sheet of plywood simply screwed into the door frame on both sides. It'd be a bit of a pain to get in and out, but it would ensure no screwdriver-challenged females get in while you're away.

You can get one of those extendable curtain rods and just put a door length currtain on it. It wouldn't look very pretty but it requires no drilling or anything.

This, they are installed with pressure, no need for screws or nails.

Or go with velcro and hang beads lol.
 
A) If you need to ask for help on constructing a man-cave, then you don't deserve a man-cave
B) if you need help on how to hang a curtain rod. You're clearly not a man

Got any pics of the inside of it?

I'm slowly revamping mine in a corner of my basement, would like to see what others have done for theirs.

Heh, I just made a separate thread for pictures of people's man caves for the same reason. I'll get a pic of mine later and post it in both threads!
 
Are you going to hang some hippy door beads in the doorway like this?

door that opens into the walkway is a better solution. that way you can lock it and not be surprised whilst jacking off.

It would also ensure non-manly males can't get in either.
