Use Front Door or Side Door? Easy choice

Comments (12)I would choose a forest green, but I would also stay away from all of the Astrobright colors - they are a bit too electric, I think.

Comments (2)All the same color because it's essentially one in the same element. In other words, you can have a door with no side lights but you can't have side lights without a door. That's why it doesn't make sense to paint the side lights a different color from the door....See Moremrspete
