8 Outstanding Front Door Colors for a Home that Wows

Now that summer is in full swing, it’s time to work on brightening your outdoor spaces. You’re thinking of all the typical ones like your backyard (see here for tips on that) and front yard. But did you ever think of your front door? It’s the first thing people see when they come to visit your home and it can add so much personality with very little effort. Break out the painting supplies people because we are going to be upping your home’s wow factor with just a few pieces of painting equipment (or just hiring a pro). I suggest choosing a high gloss finish to give your door a polished look.

1. Blue 

Pick a deep blue like Van Deusen Blue to brighten up a white exterior.

For a neutral lover, black can still make a bold statement on your door. Try Soot for a clean shade of black.
