Ok, but without a given mass or weight for the door there is no hope of finding any torques or forces. Are you quite sure there is nothing given? Any diagram?

So the professor said he forgot to say that we can express our Fg with the mass of door m, therefore Fg isn't unknown anymore and I can express everything with the terms m,g,d and l now, thanks for your time :)
