Next Steps: Punch list-the committee discussed how to treat the new front door which was delivered sanded and ready for finish. Members talked about marine varnish vs. paint and concluded that a good primer and paint would hold up longer to weather than varnish. Mike moved to paint the door white which will be done by the committee. Richard seconded. All in favor. Herb will talk with the contractor doing the front exterior about what’s needed to hang the door. Ann will research the best primer and white paint. The panic hardware on the current front door will try to be transferred to the new door. Members discussed buying an electronic programable deadbolt for the two front doors which can be programmed with three different codes and can be easily changed. Herb will price locks and a kickplate for the door. Members also discussed the potential need for a new exterior and interior door for the basement front step bump-out. Herb will request final building inspection to determine if interior doors are adequate. Herb will price and order new exterior bump-out door.
