2023 Front Door Paint Colours (that aren't black)

While neighborhoods continue to be redefined by black and white exteriors, there is still room for colour. Here are 14 of the prettiest front door paint colours to choose instead of painting your door black.

A black front door is and always will be a classic choice for many exteriors. But we are in a moment where entire neighborhoods are being built or “updated” to the most uniform exterior colour trend the world has ever seen: black and white.

So right now, a black front door simply doesn’t have the mystique it used to have. 

Because every house has one.

Stop painting your front door black

So, it’s time to think beyond black for your front door colour. If I were a part of one of these ubiquitous neighborhoods, I’d rather be able to say, my house is the one with the happy green door. 💚

And truth be told, right now that’s the only thing that will make your white house different from your neighbours white house.

Here’s the thing that’s great too. It’s ONLY PAINT. Painting a door is a pretty easy weekend project. And the potential curb appeal you’ll add is outsized to the cost.

So what’s holding you back?

Not sure which colour is best for your exterior? Try this.

Harmonize on key – consider existing exterior colours

Front doors look great in a surprising range of colours. The trickiest thing you need to pay attention too is how saturated or muted the colour is in the context to the other colours and finishes on your home’s exterior. For instance, on homes with an earthy exterior colour palette, especially with brick or stone, choosing a colour that is too clean will certainly look off.

Front door colours for a black and white house

But let’s look at colours that will look good on a white house with black windows or accents.

First, have you noticed how black painted doors often look simply like holes in the facade – kind of like black windows?

My director of eDesign painted the main entry door that goes from the garden to her cream garage black some years back. She said she couldn’t count how many times that at a glance the door looked like it had been left open.

The good news is a black and white exterior colour scheme can handle a very wide range of accent colours. So I’m going to show you some of the best front door colours my team and I are into right now to help inspire you.

 

Terrence, Chief Technology Officer

“Since a white house can have really any colour according to Maria, I would go for a playful colour with vintage vibes like salmon or pistachio to bring some joy to the otherwise stark feeling of black and white. ”

Lisa, eDesign

“I think brighter and more saturated colours are having quite the moment right now as alot of us crave a little more visual interest for our homes and would be the perfect solution for brightening up and creating a happier look on a classic white exterior. 

This vibrant periwinkle colour would be so fun to repeat in porch decor and a leafy green would connect beautifly to lush green surroundings.”

“A black and white house looks especially classic with an eye catching red door. Poinsettia is a clear pink leaning red that gives a fresh take on the traditional red. I like a rich blue with some warmth so that it stands out with black accents.”

Benjamin Moore Blue Danube

 

Kristy, Social Media Director

Just like cognac warms up black and white interior schemes, it makes a pretty focal point at the entrance. Deep teal green is always a beautiful choice. Teals and blue seem to be trending here with the MK team.

“This summer, I’m planning to give my front door a beautiful new update. My heritage home has a classic white exterior with a charming brick foundation, so I’m considering a terracotta hue to add a touch of warmth that perfectly complements the brick (and some well-placed terracotta pots on my front porch). 

But, as someone who loves to play with color, I’m also eyeing a rich blue-green shade, similar to the colour of my back door. Adding a pop of colour to your front door is a simple update that can really breathe new life into your home’s exterior – no matter how old your home is.” 

Benjamin Moore Warmed Cognac

Benjamin Moore Dragonfly

 

Shana, eDesign Customer Service

“Saffron gold is uplifting. Yellow can be tricky for a front door since some look too bright. But this is a darker and richer gold looks pretty and regal with a white exterior. For a calm look, a muted mid toned aqua or slate colour always looks polished. It would provide soft contrast to any white exterior, traditional or modern.”

Sherwin Williams Sunflower

 

Sherwin Willams Mountain Stream

 

Tricia, Director of eDesign

“I know I’m often in the minority for my love of earthy moss greens, but they are having a moment and are a good choice for creating a grounded look on a white exterior with black accents.  And a muted lilac colour is sophisticated in an unexpected way and really easy to repeat in plantings.”

Farrow & Ball Sap Green

 

Behr Dream Sunset

 

Sheila, eDesign

“It always works to take a classic colour like primary blue or red and shift it slightly for a more interesting and custom designer look. Salsa Dancing is the perfect meeting of red and orange, and Lucerne has that dash of green that brings deep beautiful water to mind instantly. ”

Wanting to create the perfect first impression for your home? Look no further than our list of front door color ideas; exploring everything from timeless favorites to more impactful, contemporary shades.

Complementing front door ideas is important, but so, too, is the note the color will strike, be it cheerful and welcoming or more formal and classic. The best front door color ideas can refresh the exterior of a home, catch the eye from the street for all the right reasons, and might even increase a home’s value.

Whether you make a statement with a bright pink door or opt for more classic black or white, your front door is a chance to truly express your style – and let people know what they can expect for the design of the inside of your home.

Our 14 favorite front door color ideas

Victoria Yardley, managing director of Victory Colours , says, 'the front door is often the first glimpse visitors get into the home, so create one that showcases your personality and interior flair.'

When planning your front door color ideas, always bear in mind that your front door design will affect which front door paint ideas suit, as well as the period of your home and the color of paintwork visible from the street and your front porch ideas. 

So, whether you've been exploring our front door colors to avoid and now need insight on what works well, instead, or feel like your front door simply needs a refresh, be inspired by our collection of colorful ideas.

1. Create a colorful contrast

A front door is a great place to really be bold with color and to create a stylish element of contrast with the style of your home's exterior. 

Melissa Holt from Cabana Rehab Interiors says, 'typically we recommend contrasting the front door color to the body of the home to create a focal point and add curb appeal. If your house is darker then a lighter color adds interest, whether that is paint or a lighter wood stain. A lighter color house can carry the visual weight of a darker door while maintaining a welcoming feel.'

As shown here, the bright purple door establishes an elegant juxtaposition with the natural stonework and traditional style of the property, making for an eye-catching use of color and a stylish mix of the old and new. 

2. Establish a theme

If you're wanting to create a more cohesive and unified look for your front door color ideas, be inspired by the colors used for your window treatment ideas.  

This front door, painted a simple, light gray, perfectly coordinates with the palette of blues and greens used across the window blinds, creating a colorful and characterful entrance into the home. With matching fabric used on the outdoor cushion, we love the inviting, indoor-outdoor feel that is created, and how the front door works in harmony with the entrance design.

3. Take the lead from your house color

Coordinating your front door color ideas with the color of your home's exterior can be a great option for both traditional and modern properties, and can establish a clean and coordinated look.

As shown above, the white front door works perfectly with this classic property, with the front door perfectly in keeping with the more traditional architecture.

4. Showcase the timeless beauty of nature

Color palettes rooted in nature, from mossy greens to sky blues and buttery yellows, are renowned to make us feel more grounded and calm – and they can blend in beautifully with an outdoor space, too, so are wonderful options to consider for your front door color ideas.

But why not take this celebration of the outdoors to the next level and choose a natural, wooden front door where the timeless beauty of nature can speak for itself? 

This warming, wooden door design by Urban Front shown above, works in unison with the coordinating wooden front porch ideas – a great look to consider for porch ceiling ideas, establishing a timeless and rustic look rich in natural material.

5. Go for natural tones with blues and greens

Allow nature to be a guide and put front door color ideas in shades of blue or green at the top of your list of preferences. Either will blend beautifully with foliage alongside the front door or in nearby borders for a harmonious look.

Muted shades like this blue or nature-inspired greens are a perfect partner to traditional homes, too, ensuring the front door is attention-grabbing but sympathetic to the architecture.

6. Refresh in a day with white

Painting the front door is one of the speediest ways to boost a home’s curb appeal. ‘It’s a one-day project that can make a world of difference to the appearance of your home,’ says Matthew Brown, Sadolin, and Sandtex technical consultant.

‘As the first thing people see when visiting your home, the color and look of your front door really should be a considered choice. Taking note of the style of the door, along with the trim and siding that frames it can change the whole look of the exterior.’

For a smart but subtle entrance, follow this home’s lead with the door painted to match the façade. Bear in mind that cleaning a front door is a more regular task the lighter the front door paint color.

7. Follow color principles

The traditional practice of Feng Shui could assist in selecting a front door color. ‘For Feng Shui front door colors, the front door plays a major role in welcoming positive energy into the house,’ says practitioner Eddie Tee of Fengshuied!  

‘When we are going for more striking colors, there is a concept of colors that can be applied to choosing one based on the sector where the front door is located within the property or the direction it is facing. This can be generally broken down to the guide below:

‘This concept is centered around avoiding an energy clash with the nature of energy entering via a specific direction. However, it should be noted that in modern times where the shape of houses is getting more creative, this concept is no longer as widely practiced as decades ago.

A more straightforward way of choosing? ‘It can also be said that in Chinese culture, red front doors are generally considered as auspicious,’ says Eddie. ‘They bring good luck and abundance.’

For further inspiration, explore the other colors people paint their front doors for good luck.

8. Let color bloom with floral-inspired shades

For a truly cohesive front yard or for cottage front door ideas, choose a front door color that picks up one of the hues from among the planting’s palette.  

For this home, it’s a delicate lavender shade that will echo the wisteria that grows around it once it’s in bloom. 

Likewise, flowers in hot shades can be combined with front door color ideas in red or orange and borders of sunny blooms with a yellow door.

9. Highlight a door’s detail with front door paint colors

There’s no rule that says you have to paint a paneled front door in a single color, and if you want to emphasize its detail, there’s nothing better than choosing a selection of hues for the task.

The key to success? Pick harmonious colors to use on the different elements of the design, and repeat shades from windows and siding, too, to pull the look together and make a striking impression on the street.

10. Smarten up with black

For classic good looks, black is a winning choice for a front door color. ‘A glossy black front door is always in style,’ says certified color expert and interior decorator Pattie Kelly of Inspired Home Interiors . Black can be a natural partner to more traditional style homes, and it’s a shade that will pop, making the front door a focal point. 

But if a bolder hue is your instinct, don’t be afraid. ‘A colorful front door is a fantastic way to make a statement and add some punch to your front porch,’ Pattie continues. ‘The most important thing is to choose a color that you love so you smile every time you come home.’

11. Finish a double door

(Image credit: Little Greene)

Double front doors are an imposing feature in their own right, so a quieter finish can be the perfect choice for a home with one of these. A white like this is a timeless choice, and although the paint finish will need to be renewed over time due to the effects of the sun and weather, it won’t go out of style. 

When selecting any color for a front door, be aware that if you live in a community with a homeowners’ association (HOA), there may be rules on front door finishes. ‘Double check with your HOA in case some colors aren’t permitted,’ says Pattie Kelly.

12. Go for gray for a contemporary front door color

(Image credit: Benjamin Moore)

For a front door color that stands out from an exterior in white, beige, or cream, consider gray. It’s a more contemporary choice than black or navy, but is equally handsome, and eminently suitable for a classic paneled door design.

A gray door can also prove easier to keep clean than black and navy as mid to lighter tones won’t make any dust or dirt that adheres to the door’s surface as obvious.

13. Choose a front door color with staying power

(Image credit: Benjamin Moore)

Whichever hue is selected from among the range of front door color ideas, it’s important to bear maintenance in mind. ‘You do want to think about how much sun the door gets, so west and south-facing doors can fade quickly due to the amount of direct sunlight,’ says interior designer and color expert Jennifer Guerin, owner of JG Color Studios .

‘Stay within naturally pigmented hues that won’t fade as fast as the more synthetic bold tones that will need a constant touch up. Using a high-quality paint, such as Fine Paints of Europe gloss , which has longer staying power, or Benjamin Moore’s Aura Exterior Paint , also known for its protective quality that lasts for years even with high sun volume.’

14. Select a different color for the front door's interior

(Image credit: Crown)

Don’t forget that the color you pick for the exterior of your front door doesn’t have to be repeated on the interior side. You may want to pick a more light-reflective shade for inside, especially if the door is solid, features stained glass, or has minimal glazing, as this will help brighten up an entranceway short on daylight – also a great choice for when exploring, what colors brighten up an entryway.

A different color for the interior can also link the door to the rest of the hallway ideas or entryway ideas, as well as to the palette picked throughout the home. 

What are popular front door colors?

It is no surprise that black reigns as one of the most popular front door colors, closely followed by other classic shades such as white and gray.  

However, the latest interior design trends and color trends are seeing a brave and bold resurgence of embracing color in the home, and what better way to make your home feel more uplifting and welcoming than a colorful front door?

We also continue to be inspired by the beauty of the natural world that surrounds us, with blues and greens another popular choice for front door color ideas.

What color door increases home value?

‘Finishes that are neutral in color can increase home value simply by the way they attract a larger audience,’ says Yoselin Castro, senior interior designer at Mackenzie Collier Interiors . 

‘Homes painted in colors like black or white make it easier for people to see themselves in the space and personalize it with their own style, as it’s almost like working with a blank canvas. This is true with front door colors too – while it may only cost you a few hundred dollars to change the color of your door if you’re trying to sell a home, it’s better to keep it safe and opt for neutral exterior paint colors. ’

“For a home to be alive and truly stylish, it must be open to the real world: scattered treasures and inherent frailty,” says American design writer Deborah Needleman. But the front door should not be left open in the literal sense, because this is a long-term investment that protects your home from frosty weather, extraneous noise and uninvited guests.

Since many people not only care about functionality, but also follow the latest design trends, let's look at 7 options for fashionable entrance doors to an apartment or house for 2023.

Dark Doors

Every space needs a bit of dark, and it doesn't have to be black. Now among the current palette, anthracite, deep gray and graphite occupy a special place.

On the one hand, these are the most practical solutions, on the other hand, they perfectly combine rigor and conciseness, allowing you to beat the interior with light or bright accents.

Model: Model 10

Contrasting doors

Designers are ready to resort to the theme of contrasts in almost any project. If someone makes their choice in favor of small details, such as accessories, table lamps, vases, then others stop at more “global” items within the apartment.

Simply put, you can install entrance doors that will not merge with the color of the walls, but, on the contrary, will become a catchy element. This popular trend of 2023 will highlight the beauty of the hallway - the calling card of your home.

Minimalist doors

Sometimes less is more, especially when it comes to front doors. The reason is quite simple: their main function is safety, not decoration (at least from the outside).

Of course, the doors are selected according to the general concept of the apartment in order to create harmony throughout the interior. And although the minimalist style is rarely used in its purest form, it masterfully becomes the basis for mixing others and combines the philosophy of simplicity, freedom and moderation.

Different types of finishes on both sides

Metal doors with double-glazed windows are suitable for cottages and country houses. In our assortment, you can pay attention to the Argos 77 model.

Thermal break doors

Thermal break is a special but based on the basic laws of physics technology. To exclude heat loss, it separates two metal elements in contact with each other, that is, it delimits the outer cold part of the door from the inner one. Thus, always remaining warm from the side of the apartment, the canvas is reliably protected from freezing.

Thermal break designs are not so much a trend as a profitable investment. Strong and durable, they will keep the heat in the apartment and, among other things, perform the function of sound insulation.

Note that thermal breaks can be both in the canvas and in the box.

Non-standard fittings: railing handle

Despite the fact that the main task of door fittings (locks, hinges, anti-removable bolts) is burglary resistance, some of its elements can be designed a little original. For example, choose an ergonomic railing handle.

Belwooddoors' Argos Grand 77 street door model has an optional LED lighting that will effectively highlight the design of the leaf and the handle of a non-standard shape.

trendy options for the interior of 2023

One of the most important elements of zoning a living space are interior doors. In apartments and private houses where there are several rooms, they provide separation of space, retain heat, protect from loud sounds. In addition, the doors are an important decor item, helping to create a cozy interior. Beautiful, originally decorated, with high-quality fittings, the doors of 2023 will transform any room, emphasize the impeccable taste of the owner, and make life in a house or apartment as comfortable as possible.


Fashion doors 2023: types and features

Standard sizes of interior doors are from 190 cm or 200 cm in length and from 60 cm to 80 cm in width. Narrow models are suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and more massive options for living rooms.

In 2023, manufacturers decided to move away from the classic door sizes and proposed to make some changes to their design.

What will be in trend:

  1. Wide interior doors

For an enlarged doorway (more than 80 cm), it is suggested to use designs with a solid leaf or leaf models.

The two sashes do not have to be the same size and design. The option looks stylish when one, wider, sash is deaf from a dense material, and the second is decorated with additional details, for example, a glass insert.

An original solution - three-leaf interior doors with the same decor on the sides and a bright accent in the middle. This door design will be a great addition to the neoclassical interior.

You can use any materials and models of a wide interior door that you think are suitable and appropriate.

  1. High door constructions

Modern variants of interior doors with a height of more than 2 meters are in trend. They will add respectability to any home, but they also have a practical side. High doors visually lengthen the walls in a low room, and it seems more spacious.

The length of the door can be increased both with the help of the door leaf itself, and thanks to the transom of various shapes and decor: rectangular, semicircular, deaf, with glazing. The main thing here is to choose the right color and material. With a glass transom, you can improve the natural lighting of the room.

In terms of design, you have a choice - a strict and concise version of interior doors or their original and vintage design.


  1. Sliding interior doors

If you are looking for the best solution for zoning a small room, then a sliding door design will come in handy. It will save space and serve as a partition between rooms, for example, it will separate the kitchen and dining room, bedroom and living room.

Glass and mirror inserts or an all-glass sliding structure will visually enlarge the space and make the room brighter. For more isolation, you can use fogged, patterned glass or a partition with alternating transparent and opaque stripes.

  1. Pocket structures

Pocket sliding door structures are not hinged, but are opened by moving into a special opening in the wall. They save a lot of space, look modern and beautiful. Such doors are an ideal way to separate the working area from the bedroom, the corner for eating from the place for cooking in a modern home. They are more convenient and reliable than conventional doors, easy to install. The pocket design came in 2023 from the 18th century. Its classic version is made of wood and decorated with glass inserts.


  1. Minimalistic doorway

If you have furnished an apartment in a minimalist style, then ordinary doors, devoid of decorative elements, will be the final detail of the interior. Neutral, discreet colors or the range that matches the color of the walls are used. The trend of 2023 is when the doors merge with the wall and seem to disappear. The door frame is indicated only by the handle. These concealed doors look stylish, but require professional installation.

How to choose a door color: trendy shades of 2023

The color scheme of interior doors plays an important role in interior design. After all, a deviation from the overall color palette can both improve and spoil the overall picture. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a shade carefully, taking into account the general style and decor elements. You should also be guided by the current color schemes of the next season.

Neutrals never go out of style. They are ideally combined with different colors and can be organically weaved into any style. If the color of the door overlaps with the color of other elements in the room, this will create a harmonious interior.

The neutral palette includes: beige, pale pink, muted green, calm blue, gray.

Dark shades can create bold contrasts in a room if that's what you're after. At the same time, this palette is a classic for decorating interior doors. Dark doors are ideal for high-tech interiors, loft, minimalism, neoclassic, etc.

In 2023, black is the trendy dark color. The effect of contrast is enhanced if such a door is decorated with glass or shiny gray metal inserts. The second fashionable shade for interior doors is classic brown. Coloring in a natural wood palette will perfectly complement any interior. Various shades of brown are allowed.

Bold, unusual colors in the design of interior doors will add a touch of boldness and originality to your interior. Pay attention that the selected bright shade does not suppress the color of other elements of the room.

Next season's trend will be :

Bold colors can be combined with polar shades to create a harmonious contrast in your home decor, creating a unique design.

Materials for interior doors

The trends in door production in 2023 are moving towards the use of natural and modern materials. Wood remains a classic and still relevant solution.

Solid is a natural solid material that is non-toxic, breathable, durable and looks very beautiful. Doors that are made from a single piece of wood are luxurious, presentable, organically fit into any design and quite expensive. However, the array, with improper care and high humidity, can swell and deform, it is prone to burning. The material requires the use of especially high-quality fittings.

More budget option - glued solid . This is a door panel of several smaller arrays connected with glue. It has the same properties as a one-piece massive structure.

Be careful when choosing a glued solid. Make sure that the material that connects the elements of the door is environmentally friendly and developed on a natural basis.

Doors made from cheaper types of wood - MDF or chipboard, covered with veneer or polymer film, boast lower cost, ease of maintenance, light construction, no special requirements for fittings. However, they have questions. How long will they serve? Are the fasteners that hold the wood together safe? To what extent are doors warped? If you are satisfied with the answers to these questions, then you can purchase such a door design for your home.


Rare materials are plastic, metal, glass, textiles, etc. Plastic doors are made of aluminum profile, they are soundproof, airtight, but their appearance is more suitable for office space, and not for a cozy apartment. Glass doors are the decoration of any living room. They can be processed by hand painting, photo printing, stained glass or mosaics. But there is a caveat - choose tempered glass door structures, as they will last longer. Fabric, paper, bamboo doors are more like a screen and a decorative element. They are of no practical use.

Interior doors made of solid, glued, chipboard and fiber boards look beautiful with various metal and glass inserts. So in the option you choose, natural and modern trends in the manufacture of interior structures will be combined.

Door decoration in 2023: design ideas

Your interior doors will look fashionable if you choose them correctly. Classic models are always relevant in any interior, but if you want to get an original design, choose trendy decors.

Interesting ways to decorate :

  1. Inlaying 2023 does not mean applying many small details to the wood base, but vice versa. Choose abstract paintings or landscapes with minimal detail so that the door leaf looks like a large panel.

  2. Hand-painted is the current trend in door design. The method of application and the plot of the picture should correspond to the overall design of the room. The image can be applied to a wood or glass surface. If you have an ethnic or eclectic interior, choose interior doors with oriental-style arabesque painting.

  3. Stained glass . This decoration method is suitable for any interior design. For example, for a room decorated in a historical style, you can choose stained-glass windows with flowers, plants, patterns with leaves, for an ethno-interior it is better to use mosaic decoration from small and large elements, and for a minimalistic design and hi-tech, stained-glass windows in the style of geometric abstractionism are suitable . A stained-glass window can decorate both the door leaf itself and the transom or door leaves.

Interior doors designed in one of the three ways presented will be an attractive accent in any room.

Fashionable doors: how to choose fittings

When it comes to decorating doors, don't overlook such an important element as fittings. In particular, we are talking about door handles. They can make even the most ordinary interior doors modern and interesting.

For more elegance and modernity, choose brass fittings with an impressive length and original design.

For a minimalist interior, almost invisible door handles are suitable, which have only practical benefits.

A room in a historical style, such as Empire or Baroque, will be perfectly complemented by doors with bronze fittings decorated with rhinestones.

The trend of 2023 will be crystal stone door handles and a large insect molded from metal.

Properly selected, and most importantly, high-quality fittings will be the final chord in the overall picture, giving the appearance of the door completeness and attractiveness.

What to look for when choosing entrance doors?

Entrance door structures that separate the living space from the street are less dependent on fashion trends than interior options. Strength is important for them, and the decor is selected based on the style of the building and facade.

Great emphasis is placed on practicality. The front door should be reliable and strong, protect from the cold and sounds from outside. Only then comes the decorative component.

Massive wooden structures remain in trend. Multi-layer high doors with deep carvings and forged metal details look impressive. They can also have transoms as an additional decorative element.


Individualism and originality are also in fashion. Therefore, the owners of houses choose neon, bright yellow, red or deeper colors - blue, green, etc.

The region of its installation plays an important role when choosing an entrance door. It is important that the coating does not freeze in winter, and in summer it is resistant to ultraviolet radiation.

In the abundance of various materials, shades and ways of decorating doors, it is not difficult to choose the option that will meet your requirements and tastes.
