Back on the original idea by ZEUS using a "Door Kick Plate" as raw material, I was able to find the following info:
Source: www.WRhardware.com
Telephone: 1-800-225-2517
Pre-Cut sizes of Door Kick Plate available:
8" x 26"
10" x 26"
12" x 28"
14" x 28"
16" x 28"
18" x 28"
22" x 28"
24" x 28"
Of special note, this particular company does offer "custom sizing" available by telephone; and will custom cut and sell the exact size Kick Plate needed from raw stock, thereby eliminating waste and reducing cost. This source is definately worth further investigation.![]()

Scott,
Success. I found a piece 1/8' aluminum in the scrap bin that's already bent.
If the 9" height is not critical and you could live with 8" then I can actually get 2 out of this piece. If 9" is critical, I can only get 1.
Guidance?
Tom
BTW, it already has a nice brushed finish (as long as I don't mess it up during the cuts)!!! May wanna contact the magnabra guy to see if you can get some of that edge guard stuff he uses - it'd give it a really finished look.
