Door Hinge Wall Mount on Etsy

Seems like a lot just to hang a couple of doors. I’m thinking just a modified wheeled dolly on the floor.

It works, works fine.

Nice. What Dolly is that?

These guys are doing something for the Bronco doors too, but it is pricey, but at lease you can move them around.

the convertible one from Harbor Freight. I think it was like $80. Straps another $15-20, moving blankets $6 each or so. Foam pipe insulation for the dolly cheap at Lowes.

Hard pass for $200. I can get creative and accomplish the same for about $40 at HD. Also probably get it so the door latches against the wall and can't swing open freely.

They also have a pretty cool "Hard Top Removal Tool". The description specifically mentions it's for a 4dr, so not sure whether it works for the 2dr or not. They also have the 'Bronco Tax' that everyone seems to have as it's $999.99. Way too much.

This is cool, but there has to be a cheaper solution to accomplish the same thing from Home Depot. I’m on the case to recreate this for under $100 and will report back ASAP

That hinge hanger is going to be carrying some serious weight. I don't think I would be using drywall anchors for that one.
What keeps the opposite end of the door form opening away from the wall? Or worse, both opening and banging into each other?

Nope.. it absolutely must be bolted through the drywall to studs.

Opening direction? That's pretty easy. Ever seen swinging doors on old skool western saloons in a cowboy movie? Know how they do that? They work without springs. The hinges are offset, so gravity pulls the door to that center position. Gravity, its a law. In our case you offset the bottom hinge location away from the wall relative to the top hinge location. That way gravity will pull the door towards the wall, so the interior of the door is in contact with drywall. You never, ever want a door on the wall to swing inwards towards a parked car. Check out the pin locations on my sketch above.

Isn't the Etsy posting very similar to the device I proposed back in September, 2021?

I'd share the specific details and dimensions, but I don't have any Bronco doors to play with. Sigh. Still waiting..

My original drawing... obviously for four doors mounted to a single stud under drywall.

Any progress with this? I've yet to see anything like this hit the market, looks like an awesome solution

Alas, no Bronco. (Reservation 28 Nov2020, Badlands Sasquatch hardtop trlr tow, v6). Is that a late 2023 Model Year?

I’ve got engineering knowledge and experience, steel and TIG welder at the ready. Anybody in Las Vegas with Bronco in hand, wanna volunteer to be first?

Saw this wall mount posted on Etsy. Hopefully this is first of many to come. Not sure which route I want to go yet. I would assume more options to choose from should be hitting the market soon.

I'm not a fan. It appears you put the doors in using the small nubs and existing hinge door brackets? No other support? Personally that's a lot of weight on 1-2 small points. I'd go with hung and hanger style. 3-4 points of contact.

Pretend you are opening the door on your vehicle. Where do you think all the weight is supported? Yup, on the two hinge points. And its plenty strong. Remember once the doors are hung on the hinge points for storage, there is no relative movement. (Earthquake aside). Not to worry.
