Bending aluminium

[GtheD]

I'm looking for somebody to apply T shaped aluminium extrusion around the perimeter of a restored caravan door. This is seemingly impossible. Obvs it's the corners that are the problem.

Can anybody help or advise please?

You need to use a shrinker/stretcher, where are you based, someone on here may have one.

Ah. Ok. I'm based in Portsmouth. Would a shrinker/stretcher bend this. I can't see how it would feed in given the T shape?

In a word no! from the image you've shown you need to buy some ally extrusion of some sort.

Which way does it need to go? You can shrink or stretch the flat part if it needs to go up or down as the image shows it, left or right however won't work.

Thanks for responding It needs to go as pic:

The flat vertical part goes along the door edge. It curves round the corners of a door, two of which are 90 degrees, two curved as seen.

If I can't diy I'm quite happy to pay someone to do it but question is who?
