Suggestions/rule of thumb for door hinges?
I'm making a door for a sound booth out of pine 2x4's and drywall that's
going to be about 44 1/2" wide, about 78" tall, 4 1/2" deep. The depth includes 3 1/2" for the 2x4's and 1/2" drywall on each side. Along with the frame of the door will be a couple of internal support members and R-13 insulation. So, it's going to be fairly hefty. My seat of the pants guess is it will weigh around around 80 - 100 lbs. give or take. In selecting hinges, should a 3-pack of 3.5" hinges from Home Depot do the job? Thanks for all shared wisdom. |
