Thanks for all the responses!
I checked out Barker Door, looks like good stuff, until.... shipping. Ouch.
I think for the box and front it shouldn't be too hard to construct - I will have lots of pieces of nice 1x4 that will be great for the sides, and for the bottom I think a piece of the wall panel we're using will work. Maybe some sort of simple bracing across the middle for extra support, since one will be for pots/pans.
Still undecided on the pulls - I reckon it depends on how much time there is to dedicate - we have to wait for 50+ weather to seal the **** out of the roof before we can do pretty much any construction on the inside, so it will be go-time after that, and smaller cost savers like that might not be worth it.
Gotta get the old girl up and running before the Dead tour in June!!
