Which colour would you go for the front door / brown frame?
I thought teal or a vibrant dark blue or burgundy or something else? Ideas pleeease? Thank you!

Front door dilemma!!
Comments (4)Personally i love wood doors and despise plastic etc. However, our bench joiner who works in wood highly recommended composite over wood because of the movement real wood goes through. Just be aware if you choose wood that it might need some adjusting and a lot of looking after. We ended up with composite but our house is 60's so it suits it....See MoreArrrrrrrr front door dilemma!
Comments (10)Hi Kerrul, I'd definitely go for a more traditional door - and timber is enormously durable and secure! The last image you've shown is not (as far as I'm aware) a traditional 1920's style door - the proportions were generally in thirds; with a top sold panel of timber or glass of 1/3rd, and the bottom section of 2/3rds often in linear panels. However, if it is just a storm porch before getting to the main front door, then perhaps all of it could be glazed, with a central glazed French door, and allow clear sight lines to your original timer front door? Good luck with it all! K :)...See MoreFront door dilemma

Comments (35)Re: the door. We're leaning towards dark, probably anthracite. I'll post a picture if and when we get around to changing it! Re: roof. I'm not a massive fan of painted roofs. There are quite a few bungalows nearby us that have had their roofs treated and to me there's something about them that looks odd. I'd rather save my pennies and replace it. Re: garden. Ha, ha! Fortunately we're perfectly happy with our garden........See More

2 years agoI think you could go bolder as grey is such a good foil for other colours. I love a bright door! I’ve gone F&B’s Cooks Blue. My friend said it should be called Bluebell Blue! As suggested above, do the frame in grey like your windows and just paint the door in your chosen colour.
