Latex exterior paint. How cold is too cold?
I am doing 2 doors for a guy. Low 40’s daytime temps. I am thinking wait for spring on the paint
You're pushing it at low 40s, IMO. That implies overnight lows lower than 32, which is too cold. I have 50 stuck in my head as the low, but don't know why. I think I might call the manufacturer.

I think you need solvent based paint for anything below about 50F. Some WB products can't be used below 65F. If you must use WB I would take the doors off and close in the openings, or wait till Spring as you said. Actually, I would take the doors off regardless of what product you use or when you do it.
