Milt I was really hoping you would see this post as I respect your opinion . The door is 1 3/8 thick so it looks like you are recommending a 4 " hinge ? And to mortise/recess a 4 " hinge it will take up the full 1 3/8 door thickness ? The mounting dimensions you listed are very helpful . Yes I will add weatherstripping to the door stops and I will add a door sweep as well . I am also going to staple one layer of radiant barrier to the compressor side of the door AND one layer of 1/2 " thick foam . That's about the best I can do . So if I use a 4 " hinge go with three of them right ? If the hinges will use up the full thickness of the door then I can go with square hinges vs. rounded edge right ? I'm probably not using the correct terminology but I think you get it . I appreciate any advice you can provide .
