Marina and Michel fabricate and install custom aluminum-framed doors, windows, and a large multi-panel gate for their studio workspace, which serves as a prototype environment for systems intended for a future aluminum electric catamaran.0:12 The project involves designing and building "camarão" (folding) style doors to span a large opening, a configuration they developed after professional serralheiros declined the work.4:28 They construct the frames from aluminum profiles and use ACM (aluminum composite material) panels for the infill, chosen for its lightweight properties and weather resistance.3:18 Installation requires a pulley system to lift the heavy panels into place, followed by manual alignment and riveting.9:45 The team also installs glass panes into the frames using rubber gaskets and a soapy water solution to ease the fit.7:26 The final gate design allows individual panels to rotate for ventilation or slide fully open to accommodate vehicle or boat access.13:48 The process highlights the challenges of DIY metal fabrication, including physical strain, the necessity of precise measurements for large-scale openings, and the difficulty of removing protective adhesive films from panels exposed to prolonged sunlight.14:29
