Since we're going to be doing a bit of work to the shop this weekend,
I figured it would be good to open this discussion again.  I fully
support the mad max style door frame.  I can probably manage to get a
steel door from lowes if we can't get one elsewhere.  I think this is
the one we want:

I'm pretty sure it's the correct handedness for the frame we have, and
it also happens to be the cheapest solid steel door they have.
