Instructions
I deciphered the instructions that go on the charging switchboard's door and came up with a pretty good rendition. This picture is actual size and can be printed on some plastic and riveted to the door. It needs a legal sized printer though. It uses 6 rivets.
Ron, the 12 5/8 includes the hinges and the height includes the mounting lug. The depth is the 3" sides plus the 1" doors plus the hinges. It all works out OK. The material is 1/8" or 11 gauge. They must have wanted bullets to bounce off it!
I think the doors just have the edges bent by a break and that gives a bit of a rounded corner.
