Any one have any pics on how you hung the door on your blind. I am building my blind and am kind of stumped on the door part. Thanks

Is it just the plywood that was cut out of the full sheet?
If so just go to the hardware store and grab u a couple of hinges. Also get some 1×2 boards to cover the gap around the door.....nailing them to the door....and get you some kind of latch.

I bought whats called a water heater door. It's pre-hung and included all the weather seals and hinges. It seals up nice and tight and the price was very reasonable

The one in the pic came from R&G mobile home supply in Euless. If you go that route call them and ask to special order it with Steel skin.

Or, you can go this route...a mobile trailer door I bought from a member here (Lonestar1955) for $100 each. If interested see this thread:
http://www.texashuntingforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/4482280/1

In fact, I ended up buying a number of these to convert all my deer stands that are being refurbished. My 4x8 is shown below.
