What color to paint wood front door on red brick house?
Comments (6)Using DHs work historic work building for inspiration, I've decided to go with.... - Red Brick house (this color stays! LOL) - All trim Medium-dark slight bluish gray. (not institutional looking). Including window molding, door trim, eaves, etc.. - Sandy-beige, deep warm cream color for door. Now, I've just got to FIND the above mentioned door color. If anyone here knows what I "mean" by the above description, and a good name and brand of paint color, please let me know! Thank you very much! And thanks for the suggestions....See MoreShow me the other side of your front door....
Comments (11)Really hard to get a good pic. I just put in some window film--super easy to install--and removed curtains. Color is SW Extra White semi-gloss. We do want to install a peephole so we can see out. The outside surface is a glossy black.

Comments (20)It is hard. It’s a big investment. The main design of your home is a mix of styles so personal choice. The wood garage doors and trims are a bit trendy and not cheap so prefer paint rather than the wood. But if using wood, cedar is best with good stain protection. It does require more maintenance. And using it on Gar doors and posts are help integrate them. A little split rail decorative fence on left side of yard would help balance the look. Nice mock ups!!...See MoreShould I get a wood stained glass door or a painted front door?
Comments (8)If you are talking about real wood think about maintenance. We had a stained mahogany door at our previous house. The sun did a number on it and it had to be redone yearly. It was even under a covered porch but the front of the house faced east and the sun still came under the porch and torched half of the door. Went with a painted door in current house and the front faces west and the door still looks good. It is under a porch as well. As beautiful as wood doors are I would not do one again....See MoreMrs Pete
