A thoughtfully chosen colour can enhance your home’s kerb appeal, whether you want it to stand out or seamlessly complement its surroundings.
Finding the right colour and finish may feel challenging, but often the best choice beautifully aligns with your home’s unique style.
How to Go About Finding the Best Front Door Colour in 3 Steps
Step 1 – Determine Your Home’s Style
Different architectural designs can help guide your choice of colour. Picking a shade that complements the style ensures everything feels cohesive and creates a beautifully consistent look.
Step 2 – Analyse Lighting and Location
Location matters, especially when it comes to lighting. A door colour that shines in bright sunlight can look quite different in the shade. Be sure to consider both natural and artificial lighting to find the perfect shade.
Step 3 – Factor in Maintenance and Durability
When choosing a colour, think about how it will stand the test of time. Consider the weather it will face and how much upkeep it might need to stay looking its best.

What Does Your Chosen Colour of Your Front Door Say About You?
Grey and Black: Sophisticated and Striking
Grey and black doors have a sleek, sophisticated vibe. These neutral tones are a perfect match for modern homes and those in cities.
Red: Confident and Bold
Nothing makes a statement quite like a red door. It radiates confidence and, in many cultures, is seen as a symbol of luck and good fortune.
Blue: Serene and Relaxing
Blue is all about peace, serenity, and stability. It’s the perfect choice for creating a calm and welcoming entrance to your property.
Green: Renewal and Prosperity
Green inspires balance, growth, and a deep connection to nature. It’s a colour that represents renewal and prosperity.
