First impressions are everything, so make sure your front door is visually appealing as well as high performing. Your front door will be the first thing guests see, so it’s important it makes a positive impression. Replacing and updating your front door will transform how your home looks both in the inside and the outside.
With decor trends ever changing, front doors are a fantastic way to breathe life into a home. But what’s on trend with front doors this year?
Simply and minimalist front doors are falling out of favour with homeowners. Recently, there has been a push towards more detailed front door designs. Bright colours and inlaid panels are just some of the design features that can really upgrade a profile. Bold moulding is another popular interior design aspect for front doors.
Homeowners are looking for a unique installation that will help their new profile make an impact. We offer a range of glazed panels and design details, helping create a show stopping installation. Personalise your new front door further with the likes of specialist letter plates and handles for a truly bespoke finished design.
Oversized exterior glazed elements have seen a huge rise in popularity over recent years. Adding double glazing into your front door can help flood a space with natural light, brightening up darker hallways.
Many people are concerned adding glazing to home will compromise the security or thermal efficiency of a space. Our glazing is robust and thermally efficient. This means heat will not escape from your property and your home will not be any more expensive to run. Thanks to their durability and multi point locking systems, glazed door designs will not be a weak pot for unwanted intruders to gain entry though.

Woodgrain finishes continue to be a popular front door trend. They mimic the look of authentic timber without compromising on modern benefits like weatherproofing and durability. Whether it be a light oak colour or deep mahogany, this traditional aesthetic will continue to be a trend in the world of front doors.
As far as solid colours go, red is maintaining its popularity as a popular red door shade. Red front doors make a bold statement and will create a fantastic first impression. This shade works will in all types of architecture and design, especially brick buildings.
Various shades of blue are becoming more and more popular. Trends are leaning towards elegant navy blues with lighter shades now becoming more popular. Light blue is a popular alternative to white, adding a calm serenity to a property. Pale greens are also a popular colour choice in country cottages, thanks to their earthiness.
If you want a darker front door, try our dark greens, which give you a natural look. Another popular black alternative is a grey door. Darker greys and blacks are a long lasting front door trend of the last decade, giving your home a unique finish.
Neutral colours like greys and blacks can increase the market value of your home should you ever come to sell it. These colours are often more appealing, because they are minimalist and modern. Brighter colours make a stronger statement, which is very personal to the individual but prospective buyers may struggle to see themselves living in the home.
Choose a front door that suits the period of your property and fits your personal preferences. Think about your existing features and surroundings. Consider your brickwork, masonry paint, existing double glazing and front pathway when picking your new front door. Your new front door should seamlessly blend into your home.
It is important, no matter the trends, to pick a front door colour that you love. Don’t just choose one to fit in with everyone else in your area. If a bright colour isn’t your aesthetic preference, you can still create visual impact with contrasting finishes and design details.
