Grady 265 express microwave replace with door?

[Ramy]

Hi guys I'm looking to see if anyone has information on what door Can go in the place where the microwave goes.

I've seen some grady whites 265 with microwaves and some with a simple door for storage.

I would like to buy the door if anyone knows where.

Thank you

I'll assume you've tried the obvious route of checking with Grady. So if no luck there, you can try salvage yards like Flounder Pounder and googling for others. It wouldn't be all that hard to make one, out of starboard, for example. You've probably seen JBrinch88's posts on this site as he makes things like this for people. If not look/search for posts from him - I think the starboard one is the General section. Another option is to simply string a few shock cords across the front (hiding the fasteners behind the opening) and not even use a door.

Great ideas I'll give them a try in that order.

Thank you.

Another option is to have a canvas made with snaps and put it over. It will serve the same purpose. I am removing the fridge and microwave on my 272 Sailfish over the winter. My plan is to carpet the inside floor (will need to be made for the fridge area) and walls/ceilings of the compartments for aesthetics. I will use a canvas for the fridge area and may leave the microwave open or install a starboard "rail" to prevent things from falling out. Do a search on here for fridge removal or cabin storage and I am sure you'll find it. It looked pretty clean. Good luck!
