A front door sets the first impression of your home. The right colour creates a welcoming atmosphere and enhances your property’s curb appeal. Astraframe offers Composite front doors in a range of colour options. However, you can also choose any RAL colour for a completely custom finish.
What Are the Most Popular Welcoming Colours
Classic Red
Red front doors signal warmth and hospitality. This traditional choice works well with both modern and period properties. A deep red like burgundy adds sophistication, while brighter cherry reds create energy and vibrancy.
Timeless Blue
Blue front doors project calmness and stability. Navy blue delivers elegance, while lighter blues like powder blue or turquoise create a fresh, coastal feel. Blue pairs exceptionally well with white or neutral exteriors.
Natural Green
Green front doors connect with nature and create harmony. Sage green offers subtle charm, while deeper forest greens provide richness and depth. Green works particularly well with brick exteriors and natural landscaping.
Current Colour Trends
Black Takes the Lead
Black has become the most searched front door colour in 2024, overtaking grey as the top choice. This classic shade projects sophistication and pairs well with any exterior colour.
Grey Remains Strong
Grey continues to be a popular choice for its versatility. Darker greys like Anthracite grey create modern appeal, while lighter greys like Agate grey offer subtle elegance.
