I'm not really clear on whether you have to replace your front door or not. Can you continue to use your current door or is it necessary to put in a new one? If it's just the storm door your husband wants, can you find a skilled carpenter to build you one to go one your current door? Then stain it to match, so it disappears. Alternatively, tell your husband you don't want to compromise with "good enough" and will keeping searching until you find "perfect." He may come to love your current door before you track down something you like better. If you must replace your door, there is a lot of choice out there. We used "Rogue Valley" door and it's beautiful and well-made. Although we could not see that exact door, we could see samples of that manufacturer and others at a local millwork supplier. I suggest contacting the manufacturers to find out who within 100 miles or so has samples of their doors. It will be worth your time to make sure you have chosen the right door. Is your NE Nebraska or New England?

I am doing the same as DLM. Mahogany door stained on outside and inside. My interior will have white trim. Wood floors and some stained wood stair parts, and other wood accents to pull it together. Or you can paint your interior door.

Widen the walkway to the front door. Right now it's difficult to tell whether the entry is on the path on the right or the path on the left. You don't have to curve it since people will naturally want to take the shortest path to their destination. You could even just line the outside of the existing walkway with another material (stone, brick, stained concrete, etc) to add interest. Trim the shrubs back from the walkway. Right now they are completely obscuring that there is an entry when you're standing in front of the house. The goal is for people to see where the entry is and feel invited to walk there. You could consider re-landscaping the whole front bed or along the walkway if you like, but at a minimum that hedge needs to be trimmed back. Our minds are also naturally drawn to walk towards light. Right now it looks like you have a single small light to the left of the door. I wonder if putting a larger light there and maybe adding more lights (one maybe at the very end to the right of the door) to entice people to walk towards your door would help.

Thanks Millworkman. It does not need to be fiberglass. It'll ultimately be painted black or a dark color. I'll check into the lumber yard. From my early research, the solid wood doors look to be at least double the cost which I'm trying to avoid for a what would be the garage storage door. Found this for the side entry door: link The other door is a double door to the garage storage area. Two 24" doors.
