There is no way to see how this will lok in your house from seeing someone elses house. If you even want any help here we need to know what your style is and also pics of your house showing your style. I live black doors and black windows but not in every house.

I decided to do black doors in my mid century ranch. Also have black windows. I love it. But black shows dust more than white. But I still love it.

Thanks all! There are many Chicago suburban homes with black windows, and it looks beautiful. Not sure about the climate, but as we are seeing them pop up more and more, I'm assuming builders have come up with the proper insulation for these windows. Yes, I would keep them uncovered, though I've seen them with white curtains and that looks amazing as well. Thanks again for all the intel. Appreciate it!

instead of the black, have you thought about bronze? and instead of beige, why not do a dark charcoal or black trim? I think if you got your black window it would tend to tie it together better than beige and the one odd black window. ya know? I have a similar style home. I did a black french casement window for my kitchen window that looks right out the front porch. there is only one other white window on the front of the house. this is a horrible picture because it was right after painting and nothing was cleaned up, but it gives you an idea. the trim is Wrought Iron. you can just see the black window in the background

Can you post a picture of the back of your house? What about white windows? Maybe paint the portico posts and porch railings white as well? The first image is similar. That might allow you to use the black door if you really like the look of a black door. Not sure how it would look with keeping the soffit color the same, but just throwing out ideas! The second image is a house with similar colors as yours, with a black door, which looks nice too. Granted, both houses have shutters and your home is not conducive to adding shutters.

I would be careful about the three-pane patio door you are considering. If the panes are too narrow (meaning if you are intending to decrease the size of the individual panes that you currently have, in favor of adding a third pane) the divide can end up looking like prison bars that block a lot of the incoming liight and obstruct your view due to added trim around the individual panes. Also, consider how you will dress the wider door for light control and privacy--patio doors are often a challenge. Your current patio door doesn't line up at the top with the window above the sink, and the window in the adjacent living room? Maybe a taller patio door would work better than wider patio doors? If you have two-lite windows in the adjoining room I would keep it consistant, both in color and number of lites..

Our interior doors are painted SW Urbane Bronze with white trim. We like it, but as Patricia said above, it might not be for every house.

thank you for the responses. i know every house is different, but i just wanted to know if there was a general trend or rule against it.

i think it would look good in my house. i will have the paint done first and then try out.
