Door storage solution

[Cape taco12]

I think I'm having a user error situation. Attempting to hang gladiator doors on the ORC hangers. Front doors hang fine but I can't get both rear doors situated. The small metal piece that bolts to the inside of the door. Each rear door bumps into the other so I can at this time only hang one.

I'm probably missing something simple here.

You push that in as if the door was in closed position. It’s usually easier to close the door as much as you can before you remove that bolt

Really? There are numerous posts about NOT pushing that in because it's a major PITA to get back out.

Here's my solution.....as mentioned in an earlier reply trusting anchors into the existing studs was not an option, so I screwed two sheets of plywood on the wall across multiple studs and then painted to hide it as best as possible.....then utilized the Mopar lift "box" for decor and mounted some "J" type brackets!!!!

I gotta assume he means it’ll push in a certain amount before it disappears into your door.

Before testing this, I’d hook some wire to it so you can easily pull it back out. Just in case it sucks it all the way into the door.

Not all the way in. You close your door on your truck so that’s it’s as far as it can go that you can still undo the bolt. It will still stick out an inch or so and it still lines up just fine.

I saw plans online somewhere to build a cart out of PVC pipe. I might go that route so I can wheel them around to keep them out of the way. I think it was like 30 bucks to build.

Happen to have a link to those plans?

I built this but didnt mount it to a cart yet. I also have yet to remove the doors. Notice the updated version at the bottom. That's the one I did.

That the one I built. I built the updated version and the 6” spacing was a little too small for the front doors. I wedged them in, but will probably make the middle slots a tad wider. I didn’t glue anything together for that reason

What are the brackets?

think I'm going to add a pool noodle but it's working good and was super cheap... just screwed into the studs with some constructive screws. Fits all 4 doors.

I wanted one of these fancy metal ones that hangs the door from the hinge but I wasn't sure I could get it to mount where I needed it. So rather than risk the coin I made something for 8 bucks with some eye bolts. Works for me because I didn't have any wall space and needed something that didn't push into the garage. Posted it on Instructables in case anybody wants to try it and or improve on it. I should probably paint it at a minimum.
