We've gone for blue - see what you think. Great idea about the planters I'm going to have a look. It's South facing would lavender thrive, it gets really hot out there?

Hi Suzy - have you had a look at our range of doors? We're currently running a number of offers that could help shave off some of the cost of a new front and/or back door. Plus, all the doors we make are completely made-to-order, so a tricky size is no problem. We'd love to send one of our design experts out to go over exactly what you need and give you a quote. It's totally free, and you can set it up online here: https://www.anglianhome.co.uk/form/?from=10310 But if you wanted to have a look and see what our doors look like on real houses we've got a handy tool that lets you try before you buy, so to speak: https://www.anglianhome.co.uk/visualiser/?from=10310 Let us know if we can help! Good luck with your search.

Hi, are you in the UK? Just that I’ve never seen sand used in that way. With the path you could add small pea shingle around the paving slabs to tidy it up a bit. If that is your front garden on the left, then as Ellie suggests, planting will help. However, sand is not nutritious enough to grow plants in, unless you have the climate to grow cacti and succulents. What to grow depends on your location and whether the area is sunny or shady. A pot either side of the front door would look smart.

Hi Sonia! I’m hoping to be able to get one through a door and window company as you say. The door I ordered was from a door company who sent out a surveyor to measure up the space and get the sizing right. But he said that they don’t make doors wide enough for what I want (even though I checked this with their customer services multi times!). He also said that even with their widest door we wouldn’t be able to also fit a side-panel. Sorry for the brain-dump! It’s all very frustrating since the whole point of the renovation is to make our bungalow accessible. Elki.
