This photograph from the Alex Handyman portfolio shows surface preparation on a door with a glass panel.

A look at the preparation stage

The door is positioned horizontally while the surface around the glazing is sanded. This is a work-in-progress photograph; it documents the preparation stage rather than a finished painted door.

When describing a door project, tell us whether you need hardware adjustment, surface preparation, painting or another specific task. A close-up of the affected area and a full view of the door help explain the work.

Describe the finish you want

For a painting request, identify the surfaces to include and let us know whether you already have the paint. Our interior painting page explains what to send for an initial review.
