During Ramadan, as Eid-ul-Fitr approaches, families prepare to welcome loved ones. A clean and shiny main door sets a positive first impression. A well-maintained entrance reflects hospitality and enhances your home’s festive vibe.
Step 1 – Gather Cleaning Supplies
Start by collecting all necessary cleaning tools:
- Bucket with warm water
- Mild dish soap or all-purpose cleaner
- Microfiber cloth or soft sponge
- Scrub brush (for stubborn spots)
- Towel or dry cloth
- Duster
- Glass cleaner (for glass doors)
- Wood polish (for wooden doors)
- Gloves (for protection)
Step 2 – Dust the Surface Thoroughly
Use a dry cloth or duster to remove dust, dirt, and cobwebs. Focus on corners, door frames, hinges, and decorative grooves. This ensures no dust mixes with your cleaning solution later.
Step 3 – Wash the Door Gently
Mix a small amount of mild soap in warm water. Dip a cloth or sponge in the solution and clean the door from top to bottom. For persistent stains, use a soft-bristled brush. Use appropriate cleaners for glass or wood to avoid damage.
Step 4 – Rinse and Dry
Wipe off soap residue with a clean, damp cloth. Immediately dry the surface using a microfiber towel to avoid watermarks. This step gives the door a polished and clean appearance.
Step 5 – Add Festive Decor and Final Touches
- Apply wood polish for a glossy finish on wooden doors.
- Add decorations like flower garlands, lanterns, or Eid-themed stickers.
- Clean doorknobs and hinges using a disinfectant for added hygiene.
Final Check Before Eid
Ensure every part of the door, including knobs and frames, looks clean and festive. A sparkling door not only enhances the charm of your home but also creates a heartfelt welcome for your Eid guests.
