Our Go-To Front Door Paint Colors

Design
February 15, 2021

One of the things we get asked most frequently are our go-to favorite hues for paint! We love making a statement at the front door, so we’re excited to share our go-to hues. Read on for our favorite front door paint colors, and get ready to refresh your home exterior!

Picking a paint color, let alone the perfect color, can be a little bit of a struggle. Not only are there so many shades of seemingly similar colors, there are also so many brands to choose from. And truth be told, you have to try them for yourselves in your own space, and at every time of day and night, to see just how the color/s interact in their new environment. So it goes without saying, lighting is key. Every hue, especially the noteworthy ones you see mentioned all over Pinterest and Instagram, can look subtly or drastically different in your space. Even in our own photos here, the time of day the shot was taken, or how it was edited, all make a difference in how it makes its debut.

All that to say, we’re here to help! We’ve curated our take on the perfect front door paint colors, MGD team approved. Scroll down to find our favorite designer hues to help you up your curb appeal!
