Door Transformation | Habitat Restore Find
My goal with this door project was simple: make it look old
1. antique/industrial elements
2. little bit of french influence
3. layers of metal and wood details
4. carved detail
5. mis-matched add ons
6. gritty, grungy, dirty, and aging gray-ish paint.

Before Picture
Starting at the top, this curved detail piece had broken off a little shelf I had in my garage
I added three metal tiles to the front, three to the back, and cut a hole in the center one and added some screen.
Keeping along with the idea of mis-matching hardware add ons, I found a hook lock, a knob with a random floral backplate, and a random wood detail piece.
Moving down the very tall door, I mounted an empty square frame, with a random square detail piece in the center.
And, a random handle on a random piece of wood.
Some views from behind
Just in case someone needs a bottle opener…
Dark trim around the door will go on soon.
