What does your front door say about you? Our front doors are the portals to our our homes. They are the very first thing your guests see before they even enter your entryway. Your front door can tell your visitors a great deal about you, your home and lifestyle. In real estate, it is said that a seller needs to wow the buyer from the moment he or she steps out of the car. A buyer is scanning a property and knows within a mere 45 seconds whether your home is what he or she wants or not. Therefore, the front door holds a great deal of power. Think about those powerful 45 seconds – What would they say about your home? What does your front door and the color you’ve chosen to paint it, say about you?
Are you traditional and elegant in approach, like organization? This is what a black or white door may suggest. While dark green and navy doors might indicate that you are more traditional and classic and perhaps you have an easy and relaxing way about you. Bright colors such red, oranges and yellows might indicate that you are outgoing, fun-loving, love whimsy, and perhaps enjoys entertaining and hosting guests. High gloss offers both drama and sophistication. What does your front door say about you?

Hi Anne! For a blue similar to this door I recommend Benjamin Moore Dark Royal Blue 2065-20. It would be gorgeous lacquered!
