I’m sending all the exterior doors to rehab!
I’m tired of them falling apart and dragging down the whole household – so hopefully this will clean up their act.
The exteriors of the doors are getting a coat of Benjamin Moore Toucan Black while the interiors / moldings are getting the standard Behr Ultra Pure White in a semi gloss finish.
The back door that enters the den (the one we use pretty exclusively) had a screen over the window in the middle that swings open (what is that called?). The screen had been torn to shreds at the bottom were my little dog Iggy loved to escape through it when we wanted a bit of fresh air.
You can see the hole down there on the right: that weird little bit of bright clear area.
We ripped off the molding and the old screen and started patching and painting. We need to get a replacement screen and molding and will patch it all up again like new!
There is obviously still more to do…
Oh and the deadbolts don’t fit. I guess we have to drill a big hole in my fresh paint. Urgh.
