Use a

Smoothing Plane

instead of sandpaper

Smoothing planes - when set up and used properly - can eliminate a lot of sanding. Here's a tip for planing doors: Don't assemble the door and then plane it; you'll have to plane around corners and that's tricky. Instead, before assembly, plane the rails down so the stiles will be a little proud when the door is assembled.Then glue up the door and plane the stiles flush to the rails.
