Favorite Front Door Colors

Posted on July 16, 2019

Your front door is the thing visitors and outsiders see first. Make an impression with a new front door color. It’s a weekend project that will make a big impact on your home. Here are our favorite front door colors.


Bright

Go beyond white with bright colors that are taking over front doors this year. The brightest are receiving the most acclaim. With the exceptions of historic homes, which need a more traditional door, colors like lime and turquoise are making a big impact. Take into consideration the surrounding colors of your property and choose a hue that works in the palette.


Teal

In recent seasons, teal has been growing in popularity. It’s a gender safe, trend forward inside and out of your home. It’s a great way to add a pop of color to an otherwise neutral color scheme. 


Red

While red doors have been popular for quite some time, the newest trend is to choose a deep, dark burgundy or cranberry. It’s really popular for homes that are black and white. The color is inviting and soothing and sets a great tone for your home.


Brick

Working with brick can be challenging because of the variations within the bricks. To ease the choice, most brick homeowners just go with a white door. It matches everything, right? True, but add some style by choosing a black or slate colored front door. You’ll have the benefit of adding to the value of your home according to Zillow.


Shutters

It’s normal to match your front door to your shutters as an architectural accent. When painting a home, it’s usually a main color, trim color and shutter and door color. Don’t feel required to follow this rule. Use the trim or main color on the door, or get really creative and pick something completely new.


Brown

When considering brown for the exterior of a home, it’s usually a taupe or barely brown. Try adding a deep, dark chocolate to the front door. If your door is wood, try a dark stain. Match your trim as well. Paired with a white home, this is especially chic.


Add style and curb appeal to your home with an afternoon and a gallon of paint. A new front door color can completely change the feel of your home.
