FRAME? No dremel will do that. I think you need to get more specific about what you want to do.

You can forget the dremel and buy air tools. You'll burn through 5 dremels on one door.

I'd second that no dremel is going to handle this job.

an electric handheld grinder will do the trick also.... assuming you get the correct wheel.
