Fancy French Security Door

[MAC702]

This was for the same folks for whom I did the room divider.

By this time, I was doing this more full-time, and had invested in a bunch of new equipment. This was welded with a MM175 with CO2 gas.

The outside frame is 2" square tubing. The door frames are 1x2" rectangular tubing. Finish is Rust-Oleum gloss almond with the same metallic gold for the castings.

The big bolt heads are decorative only. If you look closely, you'll see tabs next to them with security-head lags.

Also, on the right-side frame, top and bottom, you'll see some stops that I put in to keep the door from swinging into the porch light.

The 24-ga perforated sheet is attached after painting with rivets.
