Galen...Don't worry, I always use bridge shoes on doors!
I liked the way the doors turned out........until I painted the building, then they just looked like some discolored, ready to rot off their nonexistant hinges, pieces of junk............so I painted them a little more traditional. My original idea was to keep all but the roof trim green ( roof trim would be white), but after seeing the white roof trim, It just made the doors look even lousier, Kurt suggested painting the doors green and the trim white to match the windows.
Here are some pics.....I think the decision was the right one:

The roof trim, though no big deal, adds a little sense of support to the fairly large overhang.
I originally weathered the building more than you see in the pics, but it, like the doors, just looked too run down. I wanted this coal house to look like a busy place and not on its "last legs".
