When it comes to choosing your new front door colour is the key, it not only reflects what you think about your home, it is also an investment that can and should transform the appearance of a property. But what colour and which style. Colours that were never previously available other than as a painted options are now available in the “through coloured” GRP skins so the choice is greater
First impressions really do count when it comes to choosing a colour, recent research suggests that it takes seconds to decide whether or not to buy a property and the first impression of it is the exterior and the focal point of the exterior – the front door –it is here that you stand and wait before entering the possible home of your dreams. If the colour is not to your taste and you are uncertain of the style the viewing starts from a negative perspective. See http://www.telegraph.co.uk/property/3358262/First-impressions.html
There is one colour that looks good on any property, and in any style, nothing matches the sophistication and timeless elegance of black
If you have any doubts try thinking of all the famous buildings of real quality that you know, with very few exceptions the doors will be one of two types, either a beautifully carved and stained and made of natural wood, the likes of which now are rarely manufactured, or it will be a black, matt or full gloss it is immaterial if its black. Look no further than one of the most famous addresses in the country which carries a number ten and is a classic example of this elegance. It is the only way in – and out – of the prime minister’s residence – a black Georgian door flanked by a dutiful police officer –it has been in position operating for some three hundred years and but for a period between 1908 – 1916 has always been black – for more information see

Except of course when it went pink in support of breast cancer charities
