Exterior Front Door Designs
Exterior front doors can be purchased in a very wide variety of styles and designs.
Any front entry way can be customized with custom front doors. Glass, wood, single and double doors.
There’s nothing like having custom exterior doors for home entrance ways.
This is the first thing anyone will see or TOUCH when at your home. Choosing the right door design makes any home look one hundred times more attractive and inviting.
Materials to choose from for your front doors are wood, and fiberglass. There’s also a wide variety of glass style doors, stained glass, tinted glass and clear glass can be arranged to your liking with any modern door style.
There are many set up possibilities for how you arrange your doors and windows. A single door could be paired up with two vertical glass windows on either side. Potentially an arched top glass above the front door, I like to call these arrangements french front doors.
Double doors create an increasingly more welcoming appearance with a considerable increase in equity, quality and curb appeal. Double custom front doors are usually situated by themselves inside a well decorated entrance way. Typically these will not be surrounded by small windows but can be infused with larger glass windows within the doors themselves, which will still allow sunlight to make your entrance just as welcoming.
The options available for wood doors are incredible this style is what I prefer no matter what other characteristics my home has. Wooden front doors can be customized not only with their design, but with the stain and finish. The limitations of stains which you can use on these doors are endless. Mahogany doors are a great way to maintain either a modern style, or to mimic antique exterior doors. There is of coarse another option which is to get a paint able door.
I’m not a big fan of painted doors but it is cheaper, and actually can be quite a bit more unique as it’s easier to mix and match different colors. For example a bright yellow house with black shutters might look great with a bright white or yellow painted door, where as a dark brown house with cedar siding would be great for stained solid wood doors.
A great budget friendly alternative to using wood, is to install fiberglass exterior doors instead. These are typically not to be painted or stained, and come with only colors available from your supplier and can’t really be customized. Also a fiberglass door is typically a lot simpler and much less detailed as far as the designs go. You probably won’t find anything too fancy but what’s true is this, they ARE SOLID, they do not fade, chip or peel, and most of all they are 100% resistant to weather. Wood doors are the complete opposite except for being solid, but a huge amount of personality and character to any home.
With all that said I’m sure that it will be an extremely gratifying experience when your exterior front doors are installed and have everybody in town turning their head because your house caught their eye.
