Hey Guys,
Me again getting my parts together:rolleyes

I called Rovers North and they sell only the entire door with the Alum. skin.
Who sells the frame only?
thanks!

I dont think you can get the frames only. You may try rocky mountain (parabolicsprings.com) they sell reproduction door bottoms for around $185/each (that was a few months ago).

My wife accuses me of having selective hearing, I think I must have selective reading as well:). I totally missed the word series in your post. I don't know what the difference is if any...

You can use Defender (or S3) 1/2 doors, but the door check bracket is different between the three of them. There are also differences between the latches, but the way they mount to the door are the same.
