Anyone know how much a full steel door weighs?
Just weighed my steel door. 55.5lbs. (1998 TJ Sport if that matters)
Seems like 1500 lbs when you take them off, but only about 60 lbsMuch appreciated! I found wall mounts that weren’t insanely expensive; just needed to make sure the doors weren’t breaking their 75 lb. load limit.
Go to the wreckers, buy some old TJ or YJ hinges. Be like $5.00 a pair.
Bolt them to a couple of studs.... done.

An extra 2x4 and some initiative should resolve the issue.I need mine flat against the wall
With proper spacing, you might could, but the farther way from the stud the head of the bolt is, the more leverage the door has against it.That's a good idea, but I need mine flat against the wall. The hinges won't be able to do that.
I picked up two of these wall hooks for just under $7 each. They work well!
