I currently have a cinder block pit, leading into a hole in my foundation gaining acess to the crawlspace. I am using a piece of plywood to cover the pit. Anyone know of any kits for a door to cover this pit? I have seen several metal type doors but can not find anyone who sells them. :eek:

I'm a tactical systems analyst, retired naval officer. I do restore and deal in straight razors and related antiquities, but I'm not "handy" when it comes to stuff around the house. I fell and I broke my fall with my hand and elbow crashing though the bathroom door. It is one of these fiber/particle wood affairs, that evidently has a cardboard superstructure inside (because now I can see in there). I think I could dope it back together for the most part, plane-n-fill, and paint. The problem is, I don't know what to do about the actual holes that were made by hand and elbow... I do have the chunks, but there's no real purchase for them because cheesy doors are pretty hallow. The alternative is to get another cheesy door and hang it, but I have no idea what's involved. I would think that these tract home doors are universally standard - is that not the case? I mean, it seems to me that all I'd need is a right hand, inward opening cheesy door and some paint: that it would come with a knob and hinges where they need to be! However, I'm not finding any indication of that online here. So, what do I need to do, and how much is this going to hurt my non-house handy head and wallet?
