Thank youCool and easy idea, nicely done. Simple and basic write-up.

LOL - it always sucks to do an install video like this especially when you have all the right tools but are trying to keep it real for people who don'tGreat idea, nice vid and write up. I would second the impact driver as you were sweating pretty hard running that ratchet
LOL - oh yeah. Back in the Stone Age of JeepinYou've done this before....easy peasy...
It seems like if there is an earthquake (Eddie will be on the side that remains) or the wall is not perfectly vertical that the doors will move. Should there be a catch on the other side to keep them in place?Not bad. And very affordable.
Too funny!!Can’t wait to see if there are any hater comments about being sponsored by the local lumberyard... must be since you’re using that sweet wooden gold for trivial things like hanging doors...
Thank youGreat idea, simple and elegant.
I've used this setup before and have never seen it to be a problem in the past.It seems like if there is an earthquake (Eddie will be on the side that remains) or the wall is not perfectly vertical that the doors will move. Should there be a catch on the other side to keep them in place?
JK is the sameGreat job! I’ll have to measure but the JK will have the same spacing for the eyelets?
I have scrap wood. So that saves 50% of the cost here in . Think I’ll give mine a coat of white paint, to match my Jeep. .
also next year we will be moving into a place where I will have a proper garage. So I can bring it with me.
OlllllllO
You bet and glad I could be of helpAwesome idea! Thanks for the write up.
That's the best part about this setup, it takes up very little room when not in useJust getting caught up, looks great, simple and takes up very little space on the wall when doors aren't on there
In the past, I've just installed one up high and one low and stacked the doors. I put the rear doors up high and the fronts down low.This is pretty awesome just in how easy it is to build! Any ideas on how to make this work for 4 doors? I could make 2 of them but I feel like maybe adding 2x8's to the center and adding a second set of bolts on edge would stand the second set of doors out enough they would lay flat against the wall?
Cool, just in my head I was worried about the second set of door setting too high. But I'm sure I could make it work comfortably. Now to finish my garage so I can mount these up!You bet and glad I could be of help

I know what you mean. Full doors weigh about 62 lbs and even if you can hold it up high, it can be difficult to line up the hinge pins even in the best of situations. You just need to have the lower doors sit closer to the ground and then it isn't too bad to do both.Cool, just in my head I was worried about the second set of door setting too high.

Agreed. Front doors down low and rear doors up high is so much easier on the lifting. Especially JL compared to JK in regards to door weight.In the past, I've just installed one up high and one low and stacked the doors. I put the rear doors up high and the fronts down low.
