Lighting door slabs in a studio?

The size of the doors, resp. the large needed shooting distance, wouldn't make me shooting them from above. Can't you rent simple sawhorses, which are hidden by the doors, to lean the doors to? Leaning the doors slightly back-angled is also possible.

You need a pretty wide distance for the main light to avoid severe fall-off, i.e to get an even light across the door.

What background is planned?
