Thanks for this, I've Been spending the past few days learning as much as I could about steel grades and their properties but so far it just feels like a drop in a bucket. My next step is to attempt to figure out where these doors came from, what their use is and possibly their composition. I'm also looking into finding a possible buyer. Thanks again for posting in this thread.

I appreciate that knowledge. I may not have figured this if it weren't for your post.

Those are very thick pieces of stainless steel. I have to wonder if a metal artist would have a use for them. My first thought was someone that builds custom motorcycles?

Well, it is just another thought. You may want to spend some time browsing Etsy which could open your mind to other uses.
