The Doors

On Monday the Plexiglass for the two doors arrived. I then began during a work lunch break to paint the wooden bars which would be used for the door frame (to give stability to the Plexiglass) with water-resistant lacquer. 

As it was raining outside, I left these to dry in the garage.

One of the Plexiglass doors. Each is 93cm x 175 cm, to fit into the rear door frame.

One of the doors with its frame mounted onto the Plexiglass. Just put in place at the van without fastening it yet.


Both doors approximately put in place, with their frame pointing outward.


Originally I wanted to put a frame on both side of the Plexiglass. But then it occurred to me that it would also be possible just to have the inside with wood - and show just the plain Plexiglass surface to the outside. Am not yet sure what to do...

The two Plexiglass doors - with frame towards inside. They still have the protective foil to prevent scratches.
