its ok mate i made mine outside and remembered to measure the outside door, unfortunately i forgot to measure the inside doors which are about 24mm smaller (oops) had to take all the doors off the hinges to get the tank in the house.

i built the ply box inside but was gonna take it outside to paint.

measured the door finally and it will fit.
