[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What do you mean by "they are in bad shape"? Is it just the drips and chips or is it something more fundamental?[/quote] There are some deep gouges and uneven surfaces where key holes were filled and settled. The only way to make them look good is to scrape, sand, fill and paint. Not sure it's worth the effort or lead exposure. But I love good old doors so I'm torn.[/quote] You might try Community Forklift off Route 1 in NE Maryland. They have recycled old doors: if yours are typical 30"x80" you may have luck on finding a replacement that is without deep defects. I've been meaning to go out there as I have old solid doors too. It's a hike for me, maybe you are closer.[/quote]
