Janet Pizaro on Oct 05, 2015I would remove and replace the doors. By the time you go through the expense of covering them you might as well just replace the doors. Try the big box stores for closeouts.Helpful Reply

Kathryn Bechen on Oct 05, 2015Slats are hard and if already painted and they look bad, I agree with Janet and would replace them from Lowe's or Home Goods as it would simply be the easiest option in all likelihood. Or, you could remove the paint and start over with new paint but that's a ton of work, messy, stinky, and may not still turn out so great in the end anyway!Helpful Reply

Z on Oct 06, 2015This summer I started to remove paint from slatted (louvered) doors for our screened in porch and boy what a job that was. I agree with Janet, because you already painted them and are not happy, I'd think about replacing them too. Since some brands are made better and therefore it might be worth saving, it would be helpful if you shared a picture of your doors to make sure there wasn't something else that could be done.Helpful Reply

Kathy Ezell on Oct 06, 2015Weaving ribbon through the slats can change the look as well as attaching framed out mirrors to the doors which will hide slats.Helpful Reply

Lynn Wood Herold on Oct 06, 2015I priced the ones at lowes and home depot. They run around $200 to 250.00 per closet I have 4 sets of closet doors with 2 on each closet. I thought about buying pieces of thin wood and covering them on both sides where the slates are. Then repainting. does that sound reasonable?Helpful Reply
