The lower portion of my door seems to be bent outwards. The bottom of the door, when closed is about 2 inches from the inside edge of the floor. It seems that this is a rather wide gap. A previous owner has rigged up a combination of eyebolts thru the top and bottom door edges, which are then pulled together with wire and a turnbuckle. This is supposed to be bending the lower door edge upwards, and closer to the floor, but it isnt working. Has anyone else experienced this? My thought is to remove the entire door and jam it into some sort of a "form" device which will bend it back into the proper shape, and then
fiberglass some sort of stiffener to the inside and/or outside to help it stay in the proper shape. Has anybody got any advise?
While working on the door, I would like to make it more secure. As it stands, it would not take much to grab hold of the edges and rip it open, even when the factory installed handle is latched shut. I would like to install a pair of deadbolts, one approximately 1/3 rd of the way from the top, and the other approximatley 1/3rd of the way from the bottom. These would have to be accessable from both the outside (keyed lock) and the inside (handle) just like on the door of your house. Any advise? Thanks
