CHAPTER TWO
2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW
Doors were invented as a means of locking up entrances to secure lives and properties. Woods, plywood and grasses that are used in construction of doors do not last longer because they are susceptible to both environmental reactions such as humidity, temperature, harmattan, rain, termite and external forces such as pull and push forces which cause deformation of shape and structure of the door after short period of time.
As time goes on, better technological innovations were developed to find alternative ways, which brought about metal doors of different size, shape and pattern.
Again, metal doors are more rigid in nature than wood and grass doors. Metal doors have long life span and are not much susceptible to environmental attacks.
Metal doors in existence are of various design, and structures but this twin-panel design was made using materials like square pipes, plate sheets, for the construction as a way of improving on the existing ones. Electrodes were used for the fabrication in order to join the parent metals together. These factors make it stronger and more durable and possess the ability to withstand external forces and environmental influence. The shaking effect during harmattan period and also the stress and strain effects due to constant push and pull forces are drastically reduced to a very tolerable minimum level.
In this present project, the design was made very simple and the beautification purpose of the twin panel metal door is also taken into consideration by making a new design that occupied a test. This makes the door more durable, stress free and easy to use.
2.1 Analysis of Alternative Doors
Based on the improvement to increase men’s comfort, engineers in training learn design alternatives for making doors to meet up with the presence demand which give a long life span and adequate security.
Doors are in various designs which are as follows:
• Leather Door
• Wooden Door
• Flat Sheet Door
• Glass Metal Door
• Metal Door

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER ONE1.0 INTRODUCTIONDoor is a movable structure that is used as a means of closing off entrances for security purpose and also for the beautification of the area. In the ancient time, doors were not used and the people of then live comfortably in peace since there is trustworthiness among them, but as time goes on, some people gang up to become an enemy of progress, they started stealing another people’s properties and also terminate their live. This brings the people of thos ... Continue reading---
