door replacement and interior walls

Post by Judi » Wed Jun 18, 2003 3:03 pm

I purchased a mobile home this year; it is a 1082 Skyline; 56 X 24; and 24 X 10. The model is SCT5807. I need to replace the front and back doors; which are metal with foam and metal casings; can I replace them with wood casings and doors? Also, the entire interior is paneling; what can I use to hang pictures, etc., since there is nothing behind the paneling; and what are the studs made of? I hope you can help me. Thank you

You can replace them with a standard wood door, however, they will have to be cut down and custom jambed to this size. A lot of work and money, when there is a great selection of combination units on the market at a mobile home supplier. The studs are wood, 2 x 4's or the like, and you can use a nail in the studs to hang a picture.
