Update: Here are the doors, installed.
Doors Installeed
We made these new doors from old materials. The pine tongue and groove was harvested from a barn in Lockport, New York this Fall, milled and reconstructed at the Rusted Grain woodshop into this pair of doors we just installed on a garage on Trinity Place in Buffalo.
ReUse Action and Rusted Grain can manufacture a variety of projects from reclaimed materials. These doors look great on the garage, but also would accent a room in a loft apartment or hous hold when installed as a sliding door (surface mounted). You’d have a attention grabber that would accent a room when it’s both opened and closed.
Costs vary depending on size and style, interior or exterior applications, and level of finish.

You all are amazing- I wish you’d move to Tampa~! There’s plenty of opportunity here, as noone is really doing what you do, except a very few individual woodworkers. As for construction debris…sadly no reuse- only rarely is any material even salvaged, unless one can snatch it out from under the jaws of the heavy machinery. I have a 1926 house which I’m presently repairing, and even I have to check the debris pile-after wresting heart pine away from my first contractor as he sawed it up stating ‘it’s no good- you can’t drive a nail in”. If anyone wants to escape those Buffalo winters, I have an empty house if you want to explore possibilities for ‘reuse-tampa’
