Interior Door Painting

Smooth, durable painting for interior doors, frames and hardware areas, brushed or sprayed for a factory-smooth look.

Interior doors are touched hundreds of times a day, and the paint shows it. Fingerprints, scuffs, chips near the knob and yellowed glossy finishes make a home look worn even when the walls are fresh. Repainting doors is one of the most satisfying upgrades, because a row of crisp, smooth doors in a hallway changes the whole feel of the house. Whether you have flat hollow-core doors or six-panel solid doors, a good door finish depends on prep, the right coating and a method that leaves no brush marks.

We remove hardware or mask it, clean and sand the surfaces, fill dings, prime as needed and apply a hard enamel finish. For the smoothest result, doors can be sprayed in place with careful masking or removed and painted flat so drips and sags are avoided. We also paint the door frames, edges and jambs for a complete look, and we let each coat cure so the finish resists marks. Colors range from classic white to bold choices for an accent door.

Smooth methods

Spraying or flat painting gives a factory-like finish without brush marks, runs or drips.

Edges and frames

The door edges, jambs and frames are painted too, so everything matches.

Hard enamels

Door-rated enamels resist fingerprints and wear and clean easily with a damp cloth.

Knobs and hinges are removed or masked so paint lines are clean.

Questions

Interior Door Painting FAQ

Can you paint doors without taking them off?

Yes, with careful masking and spraying, though removing doors gives the very smoothest result.

What sheen is best for doors?

Semi-gloss or satin are the most durable and easiest to clean.

Can you paint over stained wood doors?

Yes, with sanding and a bonding primer. We can also refinish the stain.

How long before doors can be used?

Doors can be used when dry, but a few days of curing makes the finish tougher.

Do you paint front doors too?

Yes. See our front door and shutter painting page.
