If you do want to do the best job of painting the doors then take
them off and paint them flat. This will give a far neater finish.

But the doors would then be more susceptible to contamination (dust
settling etc), vertically painted panels always turn out cleaner than
horizontal panels.


Hopefully the doors will be painted in a largely dust free house,
rather then in a relatively dusty woodworking shop.

The*room of a house may offer better protection from dust than a
woodworking shop, but will it offer enough?

You could stand your doors in the bath leaning slightly inward to
protect the painted face but there's usually too much dust floating
around the average house, simply walking around the room can cause
dust to circulate that will eventually settle on horizontal surfaces.
