Whoops! Here's a picture! Knotty pine paneling so it's a no on painting to match wall. And it's not possible to add a bookcase as it's in a narrowish hall.
How can I cover my ugly furnace door?

The furnace door is soooo ugly! And it's right next to the bathroom so it's in plain sight. Yes, it's functional so I guess air needs to be allowed in. Something easy and inexpensive and safe that looks nice. Any ideas?
Photo? When I had that, I painted same color as the wall.
Here are some ideas. I personally like the bookcase on hinges that swings open.

Hello, why don't you paint it to match the wall color or paint it a nice accent color, it will look cleaner with new paint as well.
No pic....but if it has panel/louvered sections maybe replace with some nice metal gratinghttps://www.homedepot.com/p/M-D-Building-Products-1-ft-x-2-ft-Cloverleaf-Mill-Aluminum-Sheet-57559/301425711?cm_mmc=Shopping%7CG%7CBase%7CD25H%7C25-4_BUILDERS_HARDWARE%7CNA%7CPLA%7c71700000035978695%7c58700004046980559%7c92700037059910574&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-KmfzMnN3gIVB8pkCh0xUQlkEAQYAiABEgJBNvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Pull out metal frame and make your own here's basic idea you'll need to make it your own size to fit opening http://lovegrowswild.com/2014/05/galvanized-metal-menu-board/ then you'll have to add hinges to door frame and door. I'd say 4 self closing kitchen cupboard ones mounted on inside of door maybe 6 if needed
I would paint it a pop of color
