What color door do you think??

External Image

I need a change to the outside of the house. we are saving up to redo and widen the driveway and brick the walkway and stoop.

But I thought and quick and relatively inexpensive way to change it is changing the color of the front door.


Any suggestions:

BTW we have a new roof since this pic it's darker than this roof.

I'd do navy blue or burgandy. It will change the entire look of the home.

I have a major soft spot for burgandy and red doors. Always wanted. I painted mine burgandy and love it ! But it's all person preference. Navy would be beautiful too and so would dark gray.

we have similar color siding- like a light gray. we painted our door a dark navy blue ( its actually called " Gentleman's Gray", but its really a deep blue). i love the contrast of the dark color with the light color and how the door "pops". this isn't the best pic, but you get the idea....External Image

LOL I think if you do burgandy you won't be too shocked since the color is muted. If you do brick red, you might say wow there is my door lol
