It is a 1998 Maxum 2400 SCR. I am guessing, but the dimensions are
approx 48 H x 24W x 3/8 thick. I looked on Maxum's site and they say the door is acrylic. Then I believe we are talking about a flat piece of acrylic, not something bent or molded? Is this the door to the head/chaging area? The reason you're being asked to pay so frickin much is that you're paying for the function, not the material. Carefully measure the door, and order an acrylic "table top" of exactly the same dimensions from a local plastic supplier. You will have a choice of colors and tints, and the materials price should be well under $100. Transfer the hinges and other hardware from the old door, or use the old door as a template to locate new hinges, etc, on the new piece of acrylic. Presto! Good as new, and you can be proud of doing it yourself and saving a couple of hundred bucks in the process. |

Take the old door to Tap Plastics or another plastic supplier, and they will cut a panel the same exact size. I think they cut for free, and even if they charge a couple of bucks, is money well spent. They have the equipment to cut without chipping and breaking. Bill |
