- What I am trying ( on yet a new version of the model) is to move the verts until they outline the door, select the edges and bevel. Extrude the new faces inward, then bevel the edges along the extruded contour. I've only tried this on a test. I will post the new version tomorrow.

also, how dense should the mesh be before sub-D? Is the mesh that I posted too dense? Can I go looser and still get clean sharp details? Thanks.

I would be interested in this too.
