I should mention I happened across another manufactureres Prop yesterday advertised on a equiptment supply house , and while the're prop allows Youto physically change the door from Metal to Wood , either is hindged like a normal door, and is "bolted" shut each use with piece of U Channel 4 bolts through the door and two through the frame... each use you provide enough force to sheer two bolts on inward swing only... The friction force prop uses a tensioning device a metal door is set to maximumwhile a "wooden" door is less pressure like the real thing . Unlike the other prop the Friction force Prop one can utilize inward and outward swings , allows hydralic tools such as the hydraram, Baseball swing to gain a purchase point as well as any driving tools the door is built to take a beating while the other prop uses "replaceable doors" a cost consideration, while the Look and feel realistic, both the wooden as well as the exterior metal doors will offer a few breechs before needing replacement.. something to consider ...long term...Let me see if I can find they're advert so you can see for yourselves ...
