For an upcoming job I need to find or make some sliding glass doors, using barn door or similar hardware. Three panels, two operable and one fixed, mahogany frames and insulated glass panels. I got a quote for $10,000 from a custom door company, I’ve built doors and windows before so I’m comfortable giving it a try ’cause I think I can do it for less than 10k. I’ll use vertical grain stock, mortise-and-tenon joints, exterior glue.
What’s the best way to set the glass into the frames? Any advice on hardware companies? Solid or laminated wood members?
Thanks for any advice,
Mike
