What Colours To Avoid On A Front Door?

White is one of the most popular colours of doors in the UK, largely due to the popularity of UPVC doors.

But, when it comes to paint, white and very light neutral colours like cream and mushroom look beautiful, but they should be avoided if you can.

Light colours in a high traffic area like this will show absolutely every single mark, dust, dirt and debris. Which is a little bit inevitable with a door that faces a likely wet and windy winter!

It’s also best to go for something darker than a neutral so minimal maintenance is required, and it doesn’t have to be cleaned everyday to still look presentable.
