My old door panels are shot. Looking for opinions on some of the aluminum ones out there. I like the diamond patterned ones, but the plain ones from SAV aren't bad either. Anyone have a preference and why?
Re: Door pa els
love the stainless steel ones. No matter which one you choose we have found that some sound proofing installed on the back of them really helps. You have to keep it back from all edges by a couple inches. The original ones don't act like a drum as much as metal styles do.
Re: Door pa els
Just to suggest another possible solution, I picked up some 1/8" ABS black plastic sheets that are smooth on the backside and have a pebble finish on the front. They were easy to cut with a saber saw and they don't rattle like the metal ones I had did.

Love the plastic idea! I wish I had a template lft. My panels were so bad they fell apart and went in the trash.
Did you find the plastic online?

Not online. I bought it locally at a plastic distributor, Midland Plastics. McMaster carries it but it's quite a bit more expensive from them. https://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-plas ... s/=18f0ho4
You could probably make a template out of a piece of poster board.

Re: Door pa els
I think im going to try it. I'll order some I found. I may have to ask for a measurement or two for the cup, but I'm going to try it.
