What you receive and preparation
The door arrives with a white textured base coat applied to both faces and edges. The textured finish is designed to provide a professional appearance when painted and helps conceal minor surface imperfections. Before hanging, inspect the door for any damage in transit. The white base coat may require light sanding if you prefer a smoother finish before painting, though the texture is suitable for direct painting with quality interior paint.
