Mobile Welding- Cutting In A Walk Through Door On This Shipping Container
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2024
- In this video we will be installing a walk through door in a shipping container. I will be using a 6" zip disk on a 4 1/2" grinder. I will also be using a victor cutting torch with a scarfing tip. I will be welding with 1/8 8010 and 3/32 7018. I hope you enjoy the video and find it helpful.

You have no idea how glad I am you posted this I have to do this same job tomorrow. Thanks bro!
I’ve done 8 or 9 of these, most of them I also cutoff the swinging doors, framed it in and installed canister roll up doors like they use on storage buildings. I’ve always been a 7018 & 6010 guy, but I learned that on the side cutouts, a 6010 stitch weld is very prone to cracking! Most of these containers are built of “weathering” steels (Cor-Ten), and that might be the issue. Weathering steels are frequently used for bridge beams and things like railcars that are in crushed rock service. The stuff weathers to a uniform rusty appearance, then stops! Most of those bridge beams and railcars are never painted!
I don’t know who needs to hear this but I just ordered some things from ARoss’s store and the packaging and presentation is top notch. I have never been blown away by packaging alone. They even put candies in there for my wife. Quality shit guys
I agree. I have ordered the soapstone packs and they have always got here really fast.
I love that you never get in a hurry. 🙏
Amazing work cutting tacks off to recutt door jam .
The detailing in your craftsmanship 👍🏼
Grow up with doors that never shut well too tight.
Hi guys - if you don't want to put a "man door" in a container - but it is too much trouble opening the container doors all the time - it does make it easier you simply remove one set of cam lock bars from each door - the ones closest to the hinges - they are bolt on so it is quick and easy!! Just saying.
Good job Austin, turned out really nice. Thanks for sharing with us. Stay safe, Fred.
Thanks for sharing, I've got a 40' hi cube (she shed) windows a man door. Bathroom closet on back end. It's a quilters shop . Inside framed out like a pole barn electric heat lil fake propane wood burner. Sheet rocked painted and full carpet. On the door end are two hinged walls hung left and right for swinging walls two sewing machines and a 16" bed long arm quilt machine. Lady I built this for loves it!!
Wow that’s sounds really nice!
I've watched your videos for a while now and subscribed today, not just because of this video. It was time to. Thanks for all your efforts!
good job, Austin!
I've cut those before for a customer and I actually started it with the torch but figured out it was way easier with cutting wheel. It's a cleaner cut and no slag from the torch.
GREAT JOB!!
Now I am a Door Guy/Welder Fabricator. You actually did it the hard way. I cut mine out with a MILWAUKEE metal cutting saw. Awesome saw, would have taken 10 - 15 min, including a clean cut at the sill. Why use 1/2" flat stock? I cut the hole a 1/4" bigger then the throat of the frame. That way the frame seals against the container. Run some flat stock on the inside for bracing and done. I always install a latch guard for added safety.
The Hollow Metal Manufacturer here in Phoenix makes frames specifically for containers. I want to install one of those see how it turns out.
Contact me about the threshold. I have a HUGE tip for you.
Huge fan, Keep up the GREAT Work
Why not share the info with the rest of us?
@@papalilburn The way the Threshold was installed, Guaranteed to Leak.
The Fin on the Threshold needs to be trimmed back flush about 2".
The Jamb needs to be caulked where it meets the floor under the threshold.
Thanks for sharing the video Austin!!
Door opening out leaves the hinge pins exposed.
All a thief needs to do is remove the hinge pins to gain entrance unless you weld the end of the pins.
If you’re in the market for a plasma cutter and don’t have an air compressor handy, HypoTherm makes a unit with a self contained air compressor and air dryer. I think it’s called a Power Max 30. That model may be a little light duty for you but the machine does have a built in air compressor.
I take lunch at 11 also. Love it. I start my shift at 6, get off at 2:30 most days. Makes traffic much better lol
IDK man, I kinda like that JOLT when i'm welding soaking wet. Seems extra special if I'm at the grandparents' place welding off the ol tombstone while standing in a puddle because there's a small creek through the shop.
Also, I found it easiest (and stronger, too) to make my man door with tubing 2x4 or 2x3 with a 3/4 jamb the full height of the wall. Didn't want to mess with the prefab frames.
awesome video thank you !
I welded some shelves in a container at work. It was tough to weld the angle iron to the walls. Good job!
Mighty fine work
Thanks!
I'm a lefty. I always felt like grinding on the left was a left hand dominant thing. So, it's definitely the same.
Hypertherm makes a little plasma with its own air compressor built in. It would be perfect for what you do. Your welder should power it I think. Check 'em out, come on. Keep keeping on my friend ✌️
Hey Austin, one that works really good as a door stop, temporary or forever, a concrete stake with a short piece of pvc and cap works great. I'm sure y'all have wind in OK like we do in NM that'll ruin that door in a gust, lol. Great project thanks for sharing this one
Fine work sir!
Thanks!
Quick tip on flame cutting, score the line with your cut off disc and then cut with your torch. Your line will not burn off and the flame will follow the corner of the line leaving a nice smooth straight cut .
Nice! Thank you for that tip! That’s a good one!!!
I cut two bifold doors into the side of mine! Worked out very well! Would post photos if I could.
A carbide tipped blade on a 7 1/4" circular saw would have made a quick, clean cut on that.
Love the hat man
Great job buddy!👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏
Thanks 👍
As a boilermaker we use those all to often you should never be scared of using the equipment the right way
That door needs a latch cover plate. Keeps someone from easily shimming it open or using a cutoff tool to cut the deadbolt and latch.
Nice job!!!
Thank youuu
As far as construction adhesive goes, f26 is about the best you can get. It is also made here in my home town. I don't use liquid nails anymore.
We eat at 11 every day because we start work at 630 and clock out at 430. Sometimes you have to wait until they open at 11. Field crew surveyors. Also when on construction jobs staking out where everything goes we get back to work at 12--and get about an hour of "quiet time" on the job while the work crews take lunch at 12. If you go to a buffet you get first pickin's too. Maybe I need a container.
12:00 Just letting you know you can run a plasma cutter off oxygen vs. air compressor. It is a cleaner cut, too.
I bought just a cheap amazing reboot plasma for $400. I think it cuts as good as the hypertherm for smaller material.
Hey Austin, at the moment I do HVAC full time right, just trying to get my feet in the door doing welding, but anyways I use silicone almost every day and as silly as it sounds, if you want a really nice solid bead of silicone without it sticking to you, spit on your finger or just get your finger wet, idk how but it doesn’t stick to your finger when it wet, it blew my mind when I found that out but it’s a nice trick to have.😅
Nice… those are those little trade tricks that I absolutely love hearing about. Thanks for sharing!
@@arosswelding absolutely, you might not always think those little tricks are that useful but over the time you use those little tricks you’ll realize how much time those tricks save ya.
If you have the plasma cutter, rent a small high cfm commpressor! The plasma cutter is your friend for this job!!
I got whacked in the face with a grinder when I started out in the fab shop (no face shield on) but luckily it was with a flap disc, not a cutting wheel. Now im a Union Ironworker and I always tell my guys take 30 seconds to put your hood on before using a grinder. Safety first!!
30 seconds is time well spent for sure
Again if you cut into a container you need it inspected and certified.
Welding is my dream job
Since you said you got limited space I'm sure you know about Eastwood fabrication tools they make some Auto Body welders and sanding blocks and things like that they happened to make a very tiny and I think it's about a 4 and a half inch saw well it's for metal you could have used it to cut out that door it's about the size and profile of a DeWalt Grinder the reason I bring this up is it would fit in your side box because it is about the size of a grinder
Not to be a door installation guy, you done a excellent job old son. Really like the zip disc what and where do you get them?
13:30
And the way I like to do them a door like that I'll put a piece of plate on the door then I frame in the hole with two by two tubing if it's a larger span then I'll use 2 by 6 quarter wall 2 * 2 10 gauge have fun welding that
Just a quick question how would you control the climate in one of these shipping containers without constant hydro
Im guessing about an hour to cut out. Safety, what, you've taken the guard off, mortal sin!
Its worth paying more for a quality cut-off wheel. Like in this case, the wheel lasted for the entire cut. You probably would of burnt through 5 el-cheapo wheels from Horrible Fright.
What rod did you use to weld I just used 8010 pipeliners 5/32
They do make plasma cutters with a built in air compressor. If you’re going mobile with a plasma cutter you can have both equipments in one. It’s not a big unit at all.
When you got to have a power source to run that how to use plasma abuse gouge I've used cutting torch cut off wheel he called it a zip wheel look that's the best way to do it I used to do windows and doors and cut them things in half and different angles put them back together lot of fun country containers Bertram Texas check it out
@@okiedoke6373 he already has the power source, his Welder / Generator. The same machine that powered the grinder!
I will tell you if you don't use it you lose it. I have found that out about using the torch lately so I have been trying to use it more frequently. Yes I still like Zip discs and plasma. Every job has it's place.
is the KYOTO restaurant still open in stillwater?
had the rear case on a tractor tiller blow out, so i cut the case apart and welded in a carbon spring steel race for a larger 4 inch ford bearing... 6011 cast nickle iron to spring steel. the old bearing failed with a 50hp/800rpm load, the new one is ratted for 5000lbft or 600hp/800-1400rpm. ... only half an inch bigger, but that's the load range of a made in USA bearing that throws the Columbian made pot metal back in the trash.
Hello Sir , I got a question how do you keep your bottles from sliding out when they are laid down on a welding truck
If it swing out ie will sit against the door stop won’t be able to kick it
Expensive door.
Lots of value added to their frequent use of the container and the ease of the use of their container as well 😎👌
Drill a hole then use a saw all
I’ve built some out door bars for a couple restaurants in the past out if these. Pain in the rear because they bought the worst one they can find.
She’s slick.. c’mon 🤙🏼
From a security standpoint you would want that to swing in because if it swings out a thief can pry that open no problem but if it swings in it's going to be a little bit more difficult to get it open this makes a deadbolt a whole lot more effective good video though
A thief using a piece of pipe or scrap I-beam laying around (or bring their own sledgehammer) makes short work ramming a door In to gain entry.
You don't even need that all you need is a pipe wrench most people don't know this but you know that little Shield that's in a deadbolt best designed to keep the deadbolt from being crushed but since they put that on there and I used to work as a locksmith if you couldn't pick the lock you certainly could twist it out of position you take the back of the pipe wrench you strike the top of the shield that crushes it in you set the Jaws to grab and you push towards the bottom of the door this pulls the deadbolt out of the wall then you take that same pipe wrench and twist the doorknob off the door and you're in locks only keep honest men honest locks are only for the UN honest
Ahh subway.
The restaurant where every sandwich taste exactly the same regardless of the ingredients on it.
How do they do it?
6011 will bone the paint off. 3 32nd 1611. Professional welder, they will with 718.This is thin metal sixteen eleven Boss
I done some work on containers and it not fun welding on that thin wall
Austin, why did you choose to seal the gaps with silicone sealant instead of welding the metal with a continuous seam? a continuous weld is completely sealed and durable, right?
Just so I would not take the chance of warping the metal therefore causing the door not to shut right. I honestly feel like it probably would not war that bad on account of how them containers walls are corrugated and I used the half-inch plate and the door jam itself is corrugated or got some Brakes, a.k.a. Bends in it. But I just did not want to take a chance. I will try it out on my own container and see if it warps at all. I have heard of guys seam welding them. So I reckon it is possible.
@@arossweldingHello Austin ! Always enjoy your content Sir ! IDK if you’ve touched on this before, but you might be able to do an educational/historical piece on “Corten” steel which is used in these iconic shipping containers-Corten steel also is used in decorative/architectural/planter-landscape/outdoor art and garden/yard/small business projects-They had a cool website a few years back giving the specs on it🤙🏼Stay safe, be well!
How much did you charge for this job?
Hey I live in perkins
Do your country accepting foreign worker?
I have 3 year's of experience as construction helper/laborer.
Really need to use silicone
As far as a plasmas go you got to have two things you got to have air and you got to have electricity the hypertherm xp45 takes a 50 amp breaker a 225 welding machine will not give you full power then you have to back the power down to 30 a bobcat 250 or a Ranger 250 both have a 50 amp breaker when I am drag cutting using a straight edge you need 100 percent of that 45 amps if you're cutting 1/16 or 1/8 in the 45 is perfect if you're cutting 3/8 not so much that's why I don't even bother to carry a plasma on the truck you have to have 15,000 watts to power a plasma that's going to be productive on a job site similar to the hypertherm 65 or you're looking at 20,000 Watts for the 85 hobbyist you're fine but if you're cutting 20 ft sections of 3/8 plate to be honest with you I'm going to use a Milwaukee circular saw yeah it's pricey the blades are pricey but you can cut 1000 foot or better on a blade then it's cheaper than a cutting torch to run a dual air may be good for a hobbyist but I haven't found them useful in production I carry an air compressor for a gouge I also have an old-school SAE 350 to power that gouge downside is you don't have 240 120 60 HZ anyway that's just my experience
I call them pedestrian doors
my dream is small container home :) 22:04 kick the door like a Police :D
Much safer
13:31 I’m gonna a say 13 minutes. Yup, give or take 13.
Do you iron and starch your shirts yourself?
No, not now that I’m home and the cleaners here know how to Starch good. I did starch and press my own when I was pipelining in the north east.

@@arosswelding thank you!
Don't use silicone where paint needs to be. Urethane would be better.
Blood don’t hurt
you are an over explainer.
Run it slow
Hey guy, before doing your video, you should watch "The Container Guy." He would make you look a lot smarter in your own video. You could probably pick up a lot more content for what you do.
Yep I learn not too have you put a door in for me sorry but that looks like crap 💩 to me
I'll say 46 minutes on cutting the door out
Less talking while driving
Sorry don't talk so much , and no sucking up. Watch Rudan Roofing , you'll get it.
