I needed a door which I can easily open and close (and insert in a wooden wall) and I came into those nice doors from Mos Espa. I scaled them to 1:18 (115 mm height) and made a sliding channel to slide the door just like in the movie.
The sliding channel is made of 3 parts, one time the inner frame and 2 times the outer. I was able to print them in one shot, but if you have a smaller printer bed you can print them one by one. They are cleaned and glued together to form the sliding channel. The frame with wider opening goes inside. The door is inserted after the glue is completely cured and it shall slide freely.

Lando had inspected the new doors personally and although he hates the base color he said "They will do ... for now at least." later he recorded in his personal datalog "It's a shame ... pitch black ... they should deliver them gold plated." ;)
