4" Pipe installed
This is the height of the 4" pipe, as installed. You may consider 5" or 6" pipe, which would require less cutting of the body. Using larger pipe will affect the other dimensions.

Fiberglass Cut for Hinge
OK, this may be a little more fiberglass than you are willing to cut. I don't know how much would be cut with the "Original" SB hinge. I have not had any problems on my doors. This picture is not my door, but a similar one.
