Yes, we are still working at replacing our front door.
Progress: we decided on different doorknobs
(found these in our shop.)
Progress: the non-working mortise lock
got replaced with one that is almost the same size.
Progress: I didn't like the shiny finish I had applied earlier,
so I sanded down and did two coats of hand
rubbed poly. I think I will do one more coat.
Problems: * I still have the other side to do!
* I still have to get on our Handyman's radar -- he will
need to find old looking hinges and figure out how to hang
a door that is 1/4" too small for the opening.
I'm wondering if he can add 1/4 inch thick board to the inside of the door casing to make it fit.....
ReplyDeleteOh well, I'm sure that between all of you it will be hanging up pretty soon!
