Question

Accepted Answer

the door has to be painted (passive meaning)

Answer

NEED + V-ing = passive necessity (the thing has to be done TO IT). «The door needs painting» = the door has to be painted. Equivalent to: «The door needs to be painted». Subject is INANIMATE — that's why -ing form works.
