Colour Ideas for Painting Your Front Door

Colour Ideas for Painting Your Front Door

When you’re looking to give your house a quick refresh or if you’ve recently painted your exterior and you’re looking for a simple way to make it pop, look no further than your own front door. A big, bold colour choice can make even a plain white exterior draw the eye and really tie the whole thing together. Think of your front door as an accent to the rest of your home or building exterior. The right colour can deliver the wow factor like nothing else.

Be bright

If you’re not exactly the subtle type, nothing will get more attention than a bright and dazzling color choice, particularly against a more subtle or even a contrasting colour. Think of a brilliant lime green or a burst of sunshine yellow. Are your walls a light shade of blue? How about a burnt sunset orange to bring out the best in both colors? Going this route is definitely a brave choice and not for the faint of heart, but the reward will be incredible.

Be bold

If bright isn’t your thing, a bold, rich shade might be just thing you’re looking for. A classic crimson red or forest green will bring a lovely sense of class to your home or business. If your exterior is a lighter shade, consider a darker shade of the same colour to add a deepness and richness to the pallet. Deeper, warmer colors will give you that classic feel while still providing a much-needed oomph to your exterior.

Take it black

When it comes to house and exterior paint, black is often an under-looked color. We tend to associate it with the drab and the depressing, but there’s a certain elegance to a black accent that cannot be ignored. Especially if you’re looking for a stark contrast for a light exterior, look no further. Not to mention that a glossy black door will make a very big statement no matter the color of the rest of the building. Brick especially will stand out with a sleek ebony front door.

Two-tones and accents

What if you’re stuck between two colours and you can’t choose? Well, what if you tried both? A two-tone door is a fun way to experiment with colour and catch the eye. We guaranteed you’ll stand out from the rest of the block. Whether it’s painting your panels a slightly different shade or even just a thin outline as an accent, the use of multiple colours on your front door is an inspired choice. Gold accents along the panel work can give new depths and dimension to any color. They can also really spruce up an old paint job if you don’t want to redo the whole thing.

There are lots of options for this small, but crucial, portion of your exterior. And whether you chose a two-tone lime green and cherry red accented masterpiece or something slightly more conservative, we’re here to help. Call us now on 086 608 1817.
