Jake made a point to give Marcus and Kristie their space so they could talk as he kept working on the barricade.  Fortunately the standard 8 foot plywood boards were just long enough to reach the large wooden beams on either side of the main door, "At least we won't have to cut these," he mumbled and he figured out where he wanted them.  He saw Dinah return with the sagging basket of fasteners and smiled.  He walked over and started finished through the assorted pieces of steel.  "Excellent," he said as he nodded at the young woman.  "These big lag bolts will be great to anchor into the main beams, and I can use the masonry screws to anchor the whole thing to the floor."<br/><br/>Jake first ensured that the glass door was as locked as it could be, before lifting the first piece of plywood and leaning it against the door.  It covered the first four feet of the opening from the floor up.  He propped it in place with his foot as he used a framing hammer and the long, ring shank nails to tack it in place.  As soon as he started pounding he realized it might be a little loud, but if Marcus and Kristine needed to talk more and couldn't hear, they could always duck into the office.  Once the board was secure enough to not fall down, he quickly grabbed a small ladder from a nearby isle.  He then lifted the next board up and repeated the process until he had a nice 8x8 foot sheet of wood blocking off the whole glassed in area.  He finished by taking an 8 foot long 2x4 and tacking in in with nails on the edge of the plywood on each side.<br/><br/>Jake stood back a bit to study his work before looking over at Dinah for approval.  He grabbed a pair of DeWalt impact drills, and outfitted one with a drill bit and another with a socket driver, each matching the lag bolts.  "Alright, lets try to get about 8 bolts into each board.  I'll drill pilot holes through the 2x4, the board and then into the beam if someone can follow me and sink in the bolts."  He laid the driver on the counter and quickly got to work drilling the holes.
