Title: Doors on a SS Perf
Post by: Uncle JJ on March 17, 2015, 06:35:58 AM
Has anyone here ever installed front doors on a SS Performer?  The opening is roughly 32" X 20".  Just wondering if some of the Weber gasser doors might fit the space.  Anybody tried this mod before?

Aw man, and hide the kettle? Remember, there's not actually a lot of shelf space there anyway, might as well leave 'er open.

But don't listen to me, I'm a naysayer. I bet it would look really cool if some doors fit. If not, a few old E-310 frames would make fine accessories.

I have not tried it, but it sounds like a great mod and has the benefit of hiding the propane tank.  The frame provides a great anchor point for the doors.

i think it'd be cool. although the sides and back would still be open, which is a little odd

chain mail fireplace curtains would be kinda cool too!
something like THIS (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YJAHPA/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000YJAHPA&linkCode=as2&tag=webketclu-20&linkId=TYNWAXMAXQ5VTCXY)

My plan is to enclose the side and back too - find a metal shop to cut some SS panels for me.  I've got some funky plans for this grill.

Maybe you can put the kettle on the gasser frame and gasify it.
