$20 door hangers

[Speedo]

3/4" plywood & 2 sets of lower door brackets. No mirrors on doors, so I didn't have to space off the wall.

Very cool, you could even make a small padded ledge to rest the bottom of the door on and take some of the weight off the brackets. How much were the brackets?

 

[Speedo]

I thought about that, but it seems very sturdy using just the brackets. I think they were $10 for a pair from quadratec

Nice!!
I got tired of mines been around and got a piece of bed frame rail, drill few holes and a door hanger was born. I have no mirrors on the door as well.

Very resourceful. I like it

How 'bout this in a trailer....

I did mine in the driveway.... no parking in my garage. My brackets are TJ hinges from an auto recycler. $10.00 for 8.

Very cool, I like all of the ideas in this thread!

I’m looking at door hangers now. Is there no issue hanging the door with the latch side unsupported? That just seems to bother me.

Cannot imagine what the issue might be. They swing unsupported every time you open them.

Been doing this for over 20 years now.

 

[Serbonze]

For a few seconds, yes. Then when closed they are supported by the latch.

Ever leaned out an open door while backing up? But this is a silly conversation. You could be the first to include a latch on the wall.

 

[Serbonze]

Yes of course I’ve leaned out of door. Again, it’s a few seconds versus long term storage.

actually, if you've ever owned a GM, I understand the concern

I have a door dolly built out of PVC pipes that I put the doors in and ratchet strap them in place when moving them. it came with the jeep from the previous owner. It's a great way for me to store my doors in the garage and move them to and from the jeep.

What are the dimensions of these plates ? I have a fabricator at work who is great with things like this and a whole lot more

The doors are static on the hangers not subject to bouncing around as they would be by driving. I wouldn’t worry about it at all.

That’s how the ones you purchase from the stores do it, only it costs a whole lot more.
