Warped Plywood Doors

Does anyone know of any hardware available to correct warped plywood doors?
They are 2/0 x 7/0 and 1 1/8" thick. I considered angle irons the length of the doors, but that would be real ugly. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Warped Plywood Doors

John, I think that you are in for some new doors. Trying to straighten them with angles may cause them to twist. Now you have invested time and money into a converted problem AND it's ugly.
Think about more stable doors for replacement.
