Help sheet metal advice
#5
Square aluminum is much more expensive than steel, is more difficult and expensive to weld than steel and is more difficult to coat than steel. In other words, I would use thin wall steel tubing rather than aluminum for the frame.

18 gauge steel sheet with a "U" bend on the edges would work well for the doors.
