One of the number one questions when it comes to renovating a home: what are the best front door paint colors?! Well, if you’ve seen my shows on HGTV, “Help! I Wrecked My House” or “Hidden Potential”, or even follow along on my Instagram, you know that I’m BIG on curb appeal. you know that I’m BIG on curb appeal. I also talk about curb appeal in my book, House Story. It’s the first impression your home makes to the world. And do we want our first impression to be a dull one?! Of course not! One of the easiest ways to customize the front of your home (with major impact) is to paint your front door. Sure, your front door may already be painted—but does its current color say anything meaningful about your personal style or you and your family? If you answered no, let’s spice things up a little! Interior designers might have a lot of different opinions or recommendations when it comes to picking a front door paint color, but when it comes down to it, remember the most important thing to ask yourself is if it Builds Your Happy. Today I’m spilling some front door paint secrets to help you bring a little more LIFE to the exterior of your home. Read on for my top 10 picks of the best front door paint colors. My 10 Favorite Front Door Colors 1. Blank Canvas, Behr This welcoming white is a perfect choice for a front door. Blank Canvas pairs well with a variety of different home colors, making it the best option if you’re having a hard time finding the right color or making a final decision. If you want to refresh the look of your door without opting for something out of the ordinary, stick to this color. 2. Colondade Gray, Sherwin Williams Colonnade Gray is the perfect warm gray color for a front door. If you’re looking for a fresh new door color that works with a warm, neutral color palette, this is an ideal paint color for you. It’s timeless and classic, you really can’t go wrong! 3. Vermilion, Behr An earthy red, Vermillion is a stand-out front door paint color. This paint can be used on indoor and outdoor projects, allowing you to get creative and use it multiple times. It’s unexpected but so good. This color can work for a variety of different design styles, whether your home is a cozy cottage, or you’re going for a more elevated, modern look. 4. Vintage Vessel, Sherwin Williams This color, Vintage Vessel, is such a breath of fresh air. It’s a go-to color for homes that have a beachy or Craftsman vibe, and will look great from the street! A perfect choice for those seeking to switch up the look and feel of the exterior of your home. 5. Half Sea Fog, Behr I think Half Sea Fog is such a beautiful front door color, especially for those looking for a coastal vibe. It’s a blue-gray color that offers a peaceful and tranquil feel before entering into your home. A blue front door is welcoming for all who enter and a perfect choice for those who live near the sea. 6. Hubbard Squash, Sherwin Williams Hubbard Squash is such a buttery, satisfying yellow color. It would work with both Craftsman and even more modern home exteriors, and is sure to bring a smile to anyone who passes through this sunny door. I love this color for young families or those looking to revamp the exterior of their home without spending a ton of money! This is such a fun way to boost your home’s curb appeal. 7. Georgian Blue, Sherwin Williams Ahh, Georgian Blue, what a deep and rich blue color. Again, this paint color would work on more exterior styles than you might think, and it will bring so much depth to your curb appeal. This dark blue color pairs nicely with a more neutral, or lighter, colored house. 8. Copper Mountain, Sherwin Williams An unexpected color that ends up amazing is definitely Copper Mountain. This color is a great way to do something different with your front door while maintaining a more cohesive look with the rest of your exterior. Pro tip: trimming this deep orange color with a nice, bright white paint will make it pop nicely. A perfect choice! 9. Baroness, Sherwin Williams I know what you’re thinking: “Purple, Jas?!” Seriously guys, trust me. But with Baroness, this shade of purple looks so fresh and welcoming on a front door, and it will definitely set your home’s curb appeal apart from the rest of the street. This is a perfect choice if you’re searching for something a bit different than any other neutral color. Don’t be afraid to step out of the box—you’re welcome! 10. Night Owl, Sherwin Williams One of my favorite cool gray tones has to be Night Owl. If you’re more of a cool gray person than a warm gray person, I got you. This color is timeless, but also rich. Adding a fun metal door knocker will take it to the next level! There you have it, my top 10 front door paint colors! Whether you’re in the process of renovating your home, you just bought a new home, or you simply want to refresh the look of your forever home, I highly recommend choosing one of these front door paint colors. If you think about it, your front door is the first impression your guests will see of your home. It’s also something you have to look at everyday, so you better love the color! Choose a color that best Builds Your Happy and there’s no going wrong.

Our Sapele wood screen doors are 1 3/4″ thick with beveled rails and wide side stiles for durability and beauty. For our screen door joinery we use a mortise and tenon to insure the strongest and most authentic mechanical construction. This particular product is one of our stock size doors. Need a double door? Order two stock doors at the appropriate size as well as an astragal. This particular door has a PVC flat panel insert in the lower portion. This panel can be painted, but of course not stained. Therefore, this style of door is best if you plan to paint your door. Keep in mind that our astragals are 1/2″ thick, and will be attached by the customer on site to the non-active door. You want to account for this additional 1/2″ width, as well as 1/4″ gap between your doors, and 1/4″ gap on either side of your doors, when calculating the size of your opening. Sapele is an excellent wood to use for screen doors due to its rot and insect resistance. However, as with any wood, there will be defects in the wood including small checks and voids. We repair these with a combination of brown tinted epoxy or Sapele inlays. The doors can be painted or stained. The epoxy may be visible on a stained door but we do our best to make it look like natural wood grain. We build our doors to last! Our typical door has a 4 3/4” top, and side rails and a 5 ½” bottom rail. The mid rail is 4”. Give us a little grace – those number can vary depending on the door style and wood condition. **Doors are not painted (or stained) and do not include hardware. The screen, as well as door installation instructions, are shipped with the door. The doors are treated with Woodlife which helps to prevent mold and warping, as well as extending the life of an untreated door. The doors do not come in a jamb as most doors are hung directly on a porch column. The last photo in this series is an actual photo of the door as it will arrive, if ordered not primed.
