Open the front door to a unique look

Having trouble figuring out what color you want your front door to be?  Deciding on the style of front door is the first step.  Whether you choose wood, fiberglass or steel–each have strengths and weaknesses.  But if you are deciding to paint your front door, there are many color options that are trending these days.  Consider this:  Your front door is the first thing people see and commands the most attention from the street.

“People are starting to branch out,” says Amy Wax, an architectural color consultant in Montclair, New Jersey. “They realize the color of the front door introduces the world to the people inside, and it can be unexpected and playful.”
