Make a Statement with Benjamin Moore Front Door Colors
Your front door is more than an entryway—it's a reflection of your home's personality, and the perfect paint color on your door sets the whole tone for how you welcome others into your home! A bold red exudes confidence, a beautiful blue signals sophistication, and a cheerful yellow sings a vibrant welcome. And classic black? Black combines old-world charm with a dash of intrigue.
With our selection of Benjamin Moore's rich, high-quality hues here at the Color Store, you're not just picking a paint color—you're painting a statement. So, why settle for boring when your front door can be unforgettable?
A Red Door Has Always Meant More
Red front doors have a rich history. In early America, a red door symbolized a warm welcome to weary travelers, while in Chinese culture, red doors represent luck, good health, and prosperity. Interestingly, red doors used to be a nod to rebellion in Ireland when Queen Victoria ordered doors to be painted black.
Today, red doors are a bold, vibrant focal point, and Benjamin Moore Caliente AF-290 takes red paint to the next level. This fiery hue elevates a classic colonial with confidence and energy. It provides just the right amount of contrast when it sits against muted earth tones or classic architectural detail.
The Blue Hues Bring the Tranquility
A blue front door has long been tied to tradition and meaning—symbolizing safety and serenity. Benjamin Moore Yarmouth Blue HC-150 especially embodies serenity beautifully, with its soft, weathered tone that gives the sense of being by the sea. True to its name, this muted blue looks perfect on a classic bungalow or Cape Cod-style house, where it plays off natural wood siding. It's a door color that goes beyond welcoming you inside; it soothes you like the rhythmic ebb and flow of the water (even smack dab in the Midwest)!
Sunshiny Yellow Makes for a Warm Welcome
Some colors have a way of lifting your spirits, and yellow is undoubtedly one of those colors. Benjamin Moore Sunny Days 172—a classic medium yellow with a hint of marigold—brings instant warmth to a home's exterior. It's the perfect fit for a cozy cottage, where it pops against white trim and a charming garden path. Even on rainy days, this door color acts as a little reminder to stay on the bright side as it welcomes you home.
A Black Door Holds Timeless Allure
And last but not least, we have the very charming and slightly mysterious black door. Benjamin Moore Black HC-190 epitomizes classic sophistication. It's a natural fit for a historic brick home in older districts, where craftsmanship meets character. Picture it: a stately black door framed by flickering lamps that glow warmly against weathered brick and wrought-iron railings. This isn't just an entryway—it's a storied piece of the past.
