Sound proof indeed. Holy smokes. Two is overkill for sure, but having one of these in my house would be amazing. I wish I could afford birch, but it's gonna have to do with the cheap stuff and the foam. My wife will love it. Thank you so much for the video. Crowbars for the win!
LOL. It's not overkill for Nashville sound guys. It's NEVER enough for them. Don't let birch scare you, it's the same price as primed hardboard. Only $128 for a solid core at HD. The only thing cheaper is a hollow door. It's not hard to do, just very hard to lift if you're not experienced. Thanks for watching.
Great to hear. I've done quite a few of these in Nashville with great results. They're not too challenging technically, just very heavy. If possible, get sheets of rubber that fit the door instead of using strips like I did here. It was very tedious. Good luck and thanks for watching.
I appreciate the kind words. The door design is not mine, I was following the ideas of the studio owner. They came out great and I've since done more for other recording artists in Nashville. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
They were standard 4", but on subsequent doors of this type I've gone with 4.5" commercial grade ball bearing. They'll both work the same, but I believe the commercial grade will be less likely to have any issues in the future as these doors are heavy. Thanks for watching.
Interesting video and great work. I'm building an in-home studio and picked up two 32 x 80 solid core doors with the intention of hanging them separately with an air gap in the same door opening. One door would swing outward, the second door would swing inward. Not sure a door closer is in my budget, lol.
Door closers aren't necessary, and I've done what you're describing in this video. ua-cam.com/video/OQTsCy-JCH8/v-deo.html When I work for the sound guys here in Nashville, they aren't a fan of the 2 separate door system. They don't complain that it doesn't work, they don't like how cumbersome it is to use. Good luck and thanks for watching.
It was provided by the studio owner and this is what he sent me - The foam is “adhesive backed open cell rubber” from Nashville Rubber & Gasket on Elm Tree Dr. very important that it’s open cell rubber. Thanks for watching.

@@askillthatpays I’m subscribing.!!
Thats a heavy duty door. Great job
Hey great video, what kinda door hinges did use for all the weight?

@ awesome thanks! Ordering now. Also do you have a video on how you built the custom door jam? Or what kinda wood i should use?

Do you have a link to that 1/2" sound proofing foam you used ?
It was provided by the studio owner and this is what he sent me -
The foam is “adhesive backed open cell rubber” from Nashville Rubber & Gasket on Elm Tree Dr. very important that it’s open cell rubber.
Thanks for watching.
