The smooth moulded faces accept paint well, allowing you to achieve a professional finish on-site. Plan for two coats of quality interior paint over the base coat for optimal coverage and durability.
- Light sand the white base coat before painting
- Apply two coats of quality interior paint
- Allow adequate drying time between coats
- Smooth faces provide excellent paint finish
Pre-installation checks

Verify you have all necessary hardware including hinges, latch, and handles before beginning installation. Store the door flat indoors to prevent moisture absorption and warping.
