Dutch Door

Ray mentioned the door he installed this weekend in his last post. I wanted to add a few more notes about this door's history. The house my mom and aunt grew up in was unfortunately demolished recently to make way for yet another McMansion. My aunt visited the house one last time before it was torn down and the current owners asked her if she wanted any keepsakes before it was gone. My aunt rescued this dutch door, which was originally installed by her father in 1948. She gave it to us and it lived in our garage for well over a year in the hopes that we'd be able to use it in the cabin. I know it was not easy and I am so grateful to Ray for doing the extra work necessary to make this door work.
