There are two sets of textures, I can't tell you about normal maps but there are plenty on the nexus, were you trying to make a sci fi style door texture?. One provides the overlay the other the bump mapping and depth to the texture, the second is the ?????n.dds file and if you look at it will have hardly any detail except a few area's and these relate to thing's like muscle tone, the depth ridges on the door panelling and so forth.
When you open the pre existing texture to modify or overwrite use it as the template and then construct your texture over it so that when it is loaded by the nif it look's right, good attempt as you actually have something showing it just does not align right, good luck and keep trying and learning.
Hopefully someone more skilled will give you some URL to check out.
I was just messing around Photoshop (witch I have no experience whatsoever) and dicided to start putting metal pieces together to make a metal door. I actually made everything from scratch even the fail mapping witch didn't came out anywhere near what I wanted. I wanted to make the metal pieces pop out but they look like they wh*%# just stamped there lol.
