I've been planning to improvise by adding blocks above and below the ends of the door (beyond the strips I am gluing on) to protect the door from rope compression marks, then wrapping loops of tight rope every few inches, then tightening each loop by inserting a strong stick, twisting, and securing. It _sounds_ hokey but who knows--perhaps it's a time-honored technique. I'll let you know how it goes.
