Unable Install Closet Doors After Painting in Low Humidity
I painted a set of closet doors (double) in the garage, under very dry (humidity) conditions. It was a real struggle to install the doors as the hinges did not want to align. Finally after some finagling, I got the doors on the hinges, but they did not close properly (rubbing against each other). They were in the garage for about three weeks as I was busy with other stuff, and apparently they shrank a bit. Hoping this will reverse after acclimating in the house but now the doors are pretty much sealed with latex paint so we'll see. The humidity averages around 20% outside in Denver during the summer and inside my house around 40%.
