7611 Favorites: Door to the Basement

I took my friends through the house and when we got to the basement, one of them marveled at the door. Isn’t it great? So very wide.

It’s also perfectly weighted and makes a satisfying clink of the latch falling when it closes. I’m guessing this door was salvaged from some other building, but it might have been bought new for the house.

It needs some reglazing, and perhaps a paint job, but I enjoy that when my brother duct taped the cracks in the middle window, he made it look like a figure kicking up its heels.
