If they're landing on the door frame, then spraying that with Oro or equivalent means that the next time they land on it they'll die in a few minutes.
If you can see the nest then a good dose of ordinary fly spray will take care of them.
If you can see the nest but it's out a reach, you can buy wasp killer that sends out a jet of spray reaching about three metres.

Hi there, we have a spray from Mercadona in a yellow and black can, spray when it starts to go dark, they are less active

WD40 works just as well and probably a lot cheaper

The other thing to be mindful of is that wasps are territorial, which means if whatever you spray them with just kills them, a new breed will be back the following year.
I found WD40 gets rid of the wasp colony, kills the nesting area and prevents their return.
The choice of whatever you use is entirely up to you but be advised, whatever you spray them with needs to be done either around first light or last light when they are docile. Anything outside of this will likely cause them to swarm.
