Restore front door

Hynes4 · 2014-08-03 22:20:45

Hi I need to get front door restored. It is a 1920s door with stained glass. It could do with some care and attention. I am in Dublin and I could do with some recommendations. I am having no luck scanning the internet. Thanks

So when you say restored, do you want ti stripped back down to bare and start again?

There is a couple of places that do this for you, they will take door away, dip it, strip it in a day and rehang door. then its up to you to paint it.

I am concerned that the glass is bit as secure as it should be. There is also some paint on the glass. Around the door there are glass panels that could be replaced as they are not stained and have cracks and paint. I will repaint door
