Re: A lonely door
Do you have flying equipment?
If you do, you could fly the door in when it's needed, maybe have a small lip behind it with a stageweight or two to make it steady when it's opened and closed (I assume it needs to be openable?). Also make sure you have some form of catch or lock so that you don't get it swinging open and knocking lanterns/other scenery when it's flown out.
If you don't have the necessary flying equipment, is it possible to use the brackets, but incorporate the brackets into the design somehow? Such as making a small porch. If you can turn the door 3D rather than 2D then it will stand up on it's own.
If I take the porch idea as an example. You could have two low walls coming out and a small roof (style depending on the show of course) coming out above the door. Then two posts going from the walls to the roof to provide support.
Is the stage on a rake?
What do you actually need it for, and why does it have to be so 'slimline'?
