Calculate Door Weight







Formula

To calculate the Door Weight (\(DW\)):

\[ DW = \left(\frac{L}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{W}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{T}{12}\right) \times D \]

What is Door Weight?

Door weight is the total mass of a door based on the overall dimensions and the density of the material the door is made out of.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ DW = \left(\frac{80}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{36}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{1.75}{12}\right) \times 48 \approx 140.00 \text{ lbs} \]

The door weight is approximately 140.00 lbs.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ DW = \left(\frac{78}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{32}{12}\right) \times \left(\frac{1.5}{12}\right) \times 70 \approx 153.00 \text{ lbs} \]

The door weight is approximately 153.00 lbs.
