I want to repaint my front door which is black, yuck! Siding is beige, I am thinking bright blue?

[Aneeda72]

I looked on line at colors. My house is beige with white trim. I am thinking bright blue, maybe yellow, or possibly lime. Lime might be too much since the inside of the house is painted green. What do you think? The black door was from the previous owners and I can't stand it.

A soft Terracotta might be nice ?

 

[C'est Moi]

I'd probably like the black one best.

 

[Ruth n Jersey]

I think a deep maroon would look nice.

Blue is a cold colour.

Red is warm and welcoming.

 

[Aunt Bea]

I would stick with high gloss black and a shiny brass knocker or a glossy dark green.

 

[Falcon]

Good point Laurie. Black is not very welcome.

 

[twinkles]

country blue would be my choice

 

[Mollypops]

I sort of like the red.

HOA here must approve all outdoor paint choices.

 

[Aneeda72]

We don't have an HOA.

I'd probably just go with a darker brown or terracotta like Wren suggested, but I was never one for bright colors. My house has beige siding with dark brown trim, front door is dark brown stained wood, but is hidden by a glass/screen security door.

I like black doors.

Also red on a white house w/ black shutters, or green.

Take a picture. Print it. Get clor chips. Cut them to fit. See what they look like. Make the decision. Sand the door. Prime it. Get a small roller . Two coats. Lightly sand in between coats. Take a pictur. Post it here. I'm guessing that blue color that's not bright and in style now.

I see a red door, and I want it painted black,
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black.
(Good old Mick! My band used to do Paint It Black.)

Paint it blue. John Macsai, the late, great, famous architect, had blue front doors. He loved the color, and even had his famous, curved highrise at 1150 N. Lake Shore Drive, in Chicago, done up with a complete blue facade. They later painted over the blue. Ruined its impact. I went to school with his oldest daughter. We were good buddies, for many years.

I would like a deep, vibrant red. I always have loved red doors.

I just read an article a month ago about black doors and resale value of homes.

I love a red front door.

 

[hollydolly]

Yep the Brick red with beige and white would look the best IMO...we used to have that exact colour, but now we have a white UPVC framed Glass door, so no more painting
