My
son continued to paint his room - green. As he occupied himself with
that task, I began on my next task - removing the excess door. I
never do shut it, and do not need a door between the hallway and
kitchen, so decided to remove it. Easier said than done...
As
you can see, there is a lot of paint on the screws... My first task
was to scrape it off them so I could unscrew them. This was not so
hard on the top 3 screws - but the bottom 3 gave me more trouble -
one thread had worn and one has so much paint in, it was difficult.
In the end, I used pliers to unscrew them, once I had them a little
unscrewed.
The
final screw would not budge - in the end, I held the door itself and twisted
it until it dislodged the screw a little - and then I could release it using
the pliers. Finally - the door was off - and I had a mess.
