An Unusual way to Build an Insulated Folding Garage Door

- This week I'm building a Folding Door for my new Shop! It's made from 5mm thick steel angle iron and wood Insulated with 30mm thick EPS boards. This bi-fold design with the offset hinges allows me to fold out the doors to a full 180degree.

This one gets the full slow head nod. Sweet build.
I see welding that frame in place as a guaranteed way to get all the measurements exactly correct.
I watched the video with a smile on my face knowing that you'll do something unusual yet useful, and you didn't fail me ... beautiful .
😀 Thanks! Glad to hear that!
To get the size of the precision I was impressed with the way You to work. simple for me as a beginner .. 👍
Great job! We need more craft men’s in this world than entertainers . 👌
Thanks! Or the best of both worlds! Entertaining craftsmen and crafts women!
These look really great! I never would have thought of building the whole frame first and then cutting it apart. Really slick idea. Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic, the light bulb just turned on, you just inspired me.
Great approach to buld whole frame first, add hinges and only then cut it apart for perfect fit. Excellent design and work, thnx
I use this same technique when building wood fence gates, I run the 2x4 across both 4x4 post, build the frame, then cut it off after I put the hinges on. Very good technique for perfect fit doors/gates
It's actually smart way of doing it
Watched again 2 yrs later! Thinking taste might change! Nope ,still an awesome door!
Ha! Thanks!
What an amazing idea! I was looking for an aesthetic solution to a Gare/gate opening with a door, and this is it. I love it. Thank you for posting.
Videos like this usually attract endless armchair 'experts' telling you how you should have done it. Nice to see none here, just positive vibes....I thought it was great too!
Probably could have been cheaper and easier to use wood for the frame instead o steel.
Sycophants too
Thx for your inspiration, because of your video I build my own door. Because of the slightly bigger size i used a rail construction for the two connected doors to fold. Working like a charm ;)
I've been searching one like this, and finally found it.
Great job, very impressed, I am a 2nd generation door installer, loved your skill and craftsmanship .....PERFECT WELDS TOO
Nice how you combined the man door with the garage door.
What a smart production process! Looks gorgeous!!
Most látom hogy magyar vagy, már nagyon régóta követlek, szeretem a videóidat, a munkásságod. Csak így tovább!👍
Köszönöm szépen Gyula!
Szia.Én most tudtam meg!
WOW - they look FANTASTIC. Very nice job.
Happy to see that you put the diagonal Z-pieces in the right way so that they will keep the doors from sagging. A lot of people don't really think about the physics of those supports.
@Miserace Well actually it’s exactly the opposite when working with steel. 😄
@@tomfull6637 I believe this claim needs an explanation.
To my knowledge the direction of a compression brace has to be from top/far side to bottom/hinged side to actually serve a purpose, which is to transfer the force applied (or just the weight itself) at the far side to the bottom of the near (hinged)side. The force wants to push the far side down, gets redirected diagonally, trying to "compress" the brace, which it can't, so the door won't sag.
There is a way of putting a brace in the other way around. But then it has to be under tension, "pulling" the far bottom corner "up" into the top hinged corner.
I don't really get why the material should make a difference.... but i'm always happy to learn something new 👍
@@Miserace well as long as the brace is long lasting (wood + screws/nails are not but a welded metal brace is) it doesn’t matter if the brace is hanging (pulling) or standing (pushing) diagonally, the square (door) can never loose its 4 x 90 degrees angels owing to the brace.
In this video an angle bar (fairly resistant against bending) is used as brace. (And attached to the wood it gets extra bending resistance.
But...
Now imagine a brace made of flat steel bar!
Also imagine a naked door without wood ie just a frame with a diagonal brace.
A flat bar requires in pulling force some 250-350 Nm/mm2 x its cross section before it starts breaking. (25-35 Kp/mm2)
Pushing force on the other hand.... when exceeding a certain length (in relation to its width and thickness) and not very long actually, you start making a bow of the brace. In this case approx. a 2,5 meter (8’) brace, you only need a very little pressing force to start the brace to bow.
Hence the hanging brace is more reliable and foremost easier to calculate as you don’t have to consider the integrity of the bow resistance any attachments of surface dressing (wood or other) brings along.
What a pleasure to watch a craftsman create a beautiful object.
You always do such beautiful work, and I love the way you think through everything to solve and avoid problems.
Thanks a lot John! Solving maybe, avoiding ,not always!
I live in Nicaragua and this is the common way it's done here. Sometimes on sight and sometimes in the shop. Here they make their own hinges and catches. Only the locks are pre-manufactured. It's rare to use a wood finish but it is an option here. But the wood is hand sanded and finished from rough cut lumber. Most times the welders create beautiful artwork such as ornamental flowers and other designs on each panel. Absolutely incredible talent among the people of Nicaragua.
I wish I could include a pic.
omg i was thinking the same with angle iron , im glad you put a better picture in my head on how it works ! Thank you !!!
Excellent work man!! That's what skill looks like!
This is ace, basically home made bi-folding doors for a garage 👌🏼 (love the timber used too)
Kickass. How i love just about everything n will put metal in every thing needed or not doing it
That was cool Sebastian.
Thanks Don!
Outstanding!....and they look beautiful!
Great work. Looks great. I like how well that mortis style lock set fit the door.
They look great! That was a neat way to fit the insulation!
Thanks a lot Sharon!
Impressive skills in design and assembly! Bravo from the USA!
I wish I welded. These are ingenious. Thank you for making them and filming it, then posting them here!
Thanks a lot! Never to late to give it a try!
Absolutely brilliant!!
I've been fabricating and welding for 30 years. Very impressive bruh!
Pretty aesthetic design, simple yet stylish. Very cool
Yes! Love it! Great design and no nonsense!

Great way of making sure it fits the space. No house or doorway is exactly square.
Awesome job definitely like your craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing
Dude your a craftsman!! Much respect ✊🏿
I like how one side can be used as a pedestrian door!
I love it! Very nice ! Something that would go perfect in my container home that I plan to build.

Thanks! It still needs a lot of work but I’ll get there eventually!
@@Ollaris you will and it takes a lot of time. I've been busy for almost 2 years. Every time I get something new tend to want rearrange the whole workshop! Good luck and enjoy it!
Beautiful work, dude! Looks fantastic! 😃
Glad to see you back!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you very much! You too!

Following you from Morocco 🇲🇦!
Thanks a lot!
You need to come to Idaho and help me build this! I'll supply the beer and pizzas! Awesome job and exactly what I want!
And a plane ticket,visa and preferably a stay…😅
If I find a big bag of money 💰 I'll be calling you! I'm framing the garage opening in wood, what gauge / size steel do you recommend?
Lovely doors. Can’t wait to see the patina on them in a few years. Speedy recovery friend!
Now... All I need is a garage lol
Very good!
Awesome, saved and I will use that in the future.
Fantastic idea, and very good work.
Tolles Tor und schöne Mechanik

Imádom a csavaros észjárásod! :D De komolyan, most már biztos láttam többszáz asztalos/maker/stb. videót de csak a neked vannak olyan ötleteid ami miatt érdemes megnézni az _összes_ videód! Nagyon klassz lett ez az ajtó is, egyszer tuti lemásolom! Köszi!
Master craftsmen that was clean AF.
Love your work! Great way to build doors!
Nice work
