Doors on a SS Perf
« 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.

It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

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

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.
You can't always get what you want....but if you try sometimes you get what you need
