Plywood barn doors. The kind with a Z pattern. Two sheets of exterior 3/4" plywood with 1" by 3" pine trim. Use the hinges like JGrout mentioned or stove bolts(heads out).

That is what I used on my shed and our current garden shed., although the trim design non the garden shed is different.

As compared to single door I think double doors are much more secure. If you want more ideas on this matter it’s better to get the help of a company that provides window replacement services and installation.
