I was not having very good luck with annealing and bending aluminum trim so I made wooden door jams on the inside wall for the generic Benroy door to seal against. But, with the compression of the seal, the door is not flush with the outside wall and needs trimmed anyway. What other types of trim could be used than aluminum? Would ½”x 1/16 ” aluminum channel make the G-Ben door curve without annealing? Would ½”x 1/16” aluminum angle trim the door opening without annealing? I remember that MadJack was constructing doors without T-molding but couldn’t determine his trim from build pics.
Also, I am using plastic piano hinge. What is the best way to join or overlap the trim with the hinge?
