Customer wants to put a 5'-4" wide door in a 16", non-load bearing masonry wall (4" brick, 8" CMU, 4" brick). There is only about 4 ft. of masonry above the door and I am not going to count on arching action due to the doors location. I would typically use a small I-beam welded above a 15" plate.
Any other options? 4 angle irons? What would y'all use that does not look like terrible? (no surface mounted channels, please)
