    I am happy that you did not pay 100 bucks. I had some doors like that. There was no foam, Would have swore they were aluminum so I did not check with magnet, all the steel hardware was coming off easily, for some reason I checked the last panel and was surprised all parts of the door were steel. Better than looking stupid at the scale . Looked, felt, and smelled AL. The magnet knows all.

    Google first ask questions later!

    So if I remove the steel hinges from the door panels I could take the door panels in with the foam and stuff in them as dirty aluminum? I'm not sure if that's what you meant or not

    Yeah me too, I didn't even take money with me so I wouldn't spend any on it. The doors I have are either sheet steel or aluminum with foam insulation on the inside, I'll see if I can get pics of it tomorrow and check to see what metal it is too

    That makes me feel 100 times better, I'll call the yard to double check. Thank you so much!
