We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Appelation Controlee
saying something like:

The door is a large one compared to
what's typical today, and it's heavy, so I want to take a millimetre or two
off the area that's causing the problem, but I want to do it without
removing the door.

Other than the obvious angle grinder, is there an easy way to do this?

With the non-removal of the door in mind, I'd think about running a
hacksaw blade along the bottom, in a padsaw handle. Can't you take the
triangular drip section off, to work on it?

Or try a strip of very coarse sandpaper fed under the door and rubbed
backwards and forwards ...I did this once and used a piece of floor
sanding stuff that had been left behind .

Thanks for the suggestions - I already tried sandpaper, but much to-ing and
fro-ing resulted in little change. The timber strip is quite subsantial,
and it's unlikely it could be removed without destroying it. It's as much
part of the door as the mouldings surrounding the panels.
I'll try the hacksaw blade and let you know.
