FAQS

1. SHOULD YOUR FRONT DOOR MATCH YOUR INTERIOR?

All doors should match the style of your home. If you have a colonial or traditional style home, do not use mid-century or modern interior doors. You can opt for classic wooden doors that match the rest of your décor.

2. SHOULD THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF A FRONT DOOR BE THE SAME COLOR?

Whether you install a swing front door or a sliding front door, it should always be painted the same color inside out to keep things uniform and even.

3. SHOULD YOU PAINT THE EDGES OF A DOOR?

The edges of a front door should always be painted differently from the door. I would suggest you paint the door in vibrant color and paint the edges white or black depending upon the color of your walls.
