Restoring old wood exterior doors

I am trying to restore an old exterior door that has a few wooden parts that are pulling away from the door and the paint is chipping. What is the best way to repair a wood and and paint it? I would like a new door but it will cost way over $800 because the house is 100 years old and the door is not "standard". Any advice?
