Anybody have any luck just diy-ing one of these?
This company seems really overpriced.

We are putting one of these in our basement. actually two of them. A larger one at 36" and a smaller one, maybe 26" (which isn't a standard size, it's going to underneath the stairs where the sub panel is.
If I had a sketch/plan, I have confidence I could build it. But not so much if I am doing it from scratch.
One issue I anticipate is these murphy brand doors are on an offset pin hinge which allows zero clearance to open it, since they are 6-10" thick. Regular hinges I think might pose a problem.
