Any one like stainless?

[elevator joe]

The stainless rolling bench and sliding closet doors were at one time elevator doors that were repurposed into my garage from remodel jobs,which otherwise would have met the scrap pile.

oooooh aaaaaah

 

[bad_idea]

no i dont. it's hard to drill, cut, and is all around difficult to work with. ohhh, you mean to look at. looks good.

 

[PeterT]

No,,,

 

[mad57]

Very nice im a sucker for stainless.

 

[Frank The Plumber]

looks good.

I like the look of stainless Firewalls in Aircraft or Hot rods

Your cabinets look good

Note to Bad_Idea Get a stick of Boe lube from Van's Aircraft makes drilling a lot easier

 

[elevator joe]

Thanks!

 

[wintermute]

I like that. I also like that you added the up/down lights above. Where would someone even begin looking for retired elevator doors?

 

[RobertMo1988]

dam that is a great idea! i am going to talk to my dad and see what he can get, he does elevators too(30+), i have scrapped many of those doors, none that clean tho.

 

[MattColeMan]

Looks good Joe....I like how you included the up/down arrows - nice whimsical touch!

EDIT: wintermute noticed the arrows too!....

 

[RobertMo1988]

are they just the skin to the door, or half of one door.

 

[thomask]

Joe: Those doors are over the top. What a great reuse of materials. No rust problem for sure and a very retro look.

 

[colt zantop]

yeah..those look great!

 

[Steevo]

Pretty to look at, a PIA to maintain. I have enough stainless in the kitchen.
But yours looks pretty.

[Jack Olsen]

I LOVE everything stainless, it looks spiffy as hell. I just don't like scratches on stainless, like the 6 inch scratch on the bottom of my refrigerator door.

 

[bazzateer]

Do they play muzak when they open and close?

 

[Omphaloskeptic]

E.J., do they ever get stuck between floors? lol

They do indeed look good!

 

[csp]

I have one of those for my garage workbench top. They are very heavy!

 

[wilb1976]

Love the look and durability of it! I got some doors from a mod job in storage for that purpose also. Great job!

 

[the_saint]

Impressive.

Never even crossed my mind that elevator doors might be recycled, but obviously I haven't opened my mind.

Congrats!

 

[elevator joe]

Robert they're full doors,I had enough for my brother who did the same thing.

 

[shampoop]

Looks awesome!

 

[elevator joe]

hybrid, had to sacrifice the real door tracks and use pole barn tracks instead. relating them would be a interesting project!!??

 

[elevator joe]

Josh,behind all those stickers and pictures,are scratches in the stainless try it on your fridge.

 

[darkk]
