    Default Garage Doors

    After 3 years of haggling with the board of directors, removing all non essential woodworking stuff like kids bikes, garden tools and general junk I have finally got the garage converted to a workshop. In fact my shiny new table saw is due to arrive Friday the last major tool purchase.
    My question is what to do about the 2 west facing roller doors that turn the shop into a sauna in summer and a fridge in winter.
    I have a pile of oregon salvaged from a house demolition that could transform intoh swing doors but the thought of maintenaince is a bit off putting and I'm not sure about my skill level.
    Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted so I can enjoy my new found obsession year round. Doors are 2 @ 2400W X 2100H

    Cheers

    Get a steel fabricator to weld up some frames for you and line the outside with colorbond cladding and then line the inside with ply or colorbond with insulation in between the 2

    Yep recon that's the way to go might even use the old doors as external cladding.

    Thanks
