Step 2Materials
-3/4" galvanized steel pipe (Length will be determined from door measurements)
-2 x 4-directional coupling
-2 x 3-directional coupling
-2 x 45 degree coupling
-4 x 90 degree coupling
-2 x close nipple (meaning no pipe between threads)
-2 x 3/4" x 3" nipple
-2 x 3/4" x 4" nipple
-2 x 3/4" x 5.5" nipple (Length will be determined from door measurements. This is dependent on the depth of the door.)
-6 x 3/4" x 6" nipple
-duct tape
-sponge
-detachable links
-Pipe wrench
-measuring tape
-pipe insulation
-athletic tape*
-painters tape*
*=optional
NOTE: I could not find any stores that would cut and thread pipe in lengths shorter than 12". That is why I had to purchase individual nipples. If you can find a store or are capable of cutting and threading pipe in small increments, the cost of the project can be cut significantly.
