Bridgeport hole in the wall

Steel doors framed with 4" channel iron, yes! I'd love to see the faces of the SWAT team that tries to bash thru that with their door ram, nevermind the burglar with the prybar.

Don, if it's the SWAT team I'll just let 'em provided they say "pretty please" and the magic password. But the burglar guy is gonna just have to work hard lfor his keep just like the rest of us. V

LOL.

LOL, I can't remember how many times I thought something would be a short project and upon finishing, I reasoned that at "50 cents per hour" nobody could afford it.

The "worst" is when somebody else thinks it's easy (like wife....), my usual response is "yea, lets open the box and see if it just miracles itself there and works".

"Father" Darwin Power owned a welding and machine shop in Bass Harbor, Maine and had a reputation as a story teller. He once told me, "Bill was the best man I ever had working for me, he was so slow he couldn't screw up a job before I could stop him."

Some keyword spamming here since I don't find anything about Father on the 'net, and he deserves a mention: Father Power Darwin Power Power and Robinson Bass Harbor Town Hill

Ned, Two others I like are: "If you want a job done right give it to a lazy man". I think I read a "byline" in here that said. "Laziness is nothing more than resting before you get tired". V

While you are probably committed to the door idea, what also can be done in these cases is to make a removable wall section that is held in place with pins rather than going to all the fuss of hanging swinging doors.

Hi Roger. I actually gave serious thought to that. I opted for doors largely for cosmetic reasons. V
