Dark Blue Door

Werner Straube

For a more traditional look, match your door's color to your home's architectural style. Deep navy blue creates a formal feel suited to historic and traditional homes. Dazzling turquoise and baby blue doors, on the other hand, create a free-spirited, unconventional look.

Cottage-Style Entry

Janet Mesic-Mackie

White casing highlights this turquoise door, which makes a splash thanks to its complementary color partners. When choosing a blue hue for your front door, consider the color of walkways and exterior siding (here, it's brick red and cedar shingles). Select a shade found on the opposite side of the color wheel to create noteworthy contrast.

Classic Blue Front Door

David Tsay

Painting your front door blue is one way to make a fine first impression. To double your entry's impact, consider replacing an ordinary door with a distinctively detailed version. Though solid in nature, this door delights thanks to its delft-blue color and board-and-batten details.

Blue-Gray Door

Matthew Benson

Roof shingles enhance a home's appearance and typically coordinate with a home's siding color. They also offer a great place to find color inspiration for your front door. This blue-gray door, a main player in this abode's cohesive look, carries the color of the roof shingles closer to eye level.

Coastal-Inspired Entryway

Michael Partenio

Framed by roof-supporting columns, this front door demands attention. The homeowners referenced their coastal locale by painting the door a deep-sea blue that pops against the home's siding and trim. Vividly glazed containers and blue-toned pavers carry the door's hue further into the landscape.

Bright Aqua Door

Michael Partenio

Use color to highlight your home's exterior features. Tucked into a sidewall, this front door was barely noticeable until the homeowners painted it a brilliant aqua. The seaworthy hue furthers the home's beach-cottage style and provides a breezy counterpoint to the stucco siding and stone-clad setting.

Slate Blue Front Door

Consider smoky teal tones contemporary takes on navy blue. These shades make excellent choices when you want to make a subtle yet fashion-forward statement. This paneled front door, which steps off the lighter blue-gray siding, also connects to the greens in the surrounding landscape.

Peacock Blue Door

Jay Wilde

Go bold with color for a whimsical, welcoming entryway. Though a fanciful monogram and knocker make a statement on this plank door, it's the door's bright hue that draws people down the garden path. Green-glazed posts and shutters in a complementary hue amplify this garden shed door's importance and visibility.

Bold Front Door Color

Ryann Ford

Doors fade from view when set back on a facade or shaded by a porch roof. Use a high-energy, high-contrast paint color to carry your front door into the limelight. This aquamarine door stands out brilliantly against warm-gray siding.

Navy Blue Front Door

Werner Straube

Federalist architectural styles, born in our country's Colonial times, call for understated color choices. Though different in hue, this blue front door and black shutters play together nicely because they bear the same visual weight. Their variation in hues offers contrast without disrupting the home's peaceable personality.

Suggested Paint Color: Tidal M510-6, Behr

Inviting Front Door Color

Brie Williams

This vivid blue door beckons arriving guests up the entry path. Though set back and shaded by the porch roof, the bright turquoise hue brings the door forward to brighten the porch's shadows. It can now be more easily seen and appreciated by passersby.

Robin's Egg Blue Accents

Brie Williams

Painting the front door and the shutters a vibrant shade adds can't-miss curb appeal to a monochromatic exterior. This one-color treatment is especially effective on straight-lined structures with little architectural embellishment. Here, a robin's egg blue pairs perfectly with French-inspired exterior elements like arched windows and stucco siding.

Turquoise Front Door Design

Jay Wilde

Unique door designs require thoughtful consideration when it comes to color. High-gloss turquoise paint makes this door shine with a striking finish that shifts along with the light. Turquoise repeats on a house-number plaque and bench pillows to further liven up the neutral exterior.

Displaying a single color in different ways and varying tones creates pleasingly put-together spaces. Cobalt blue paint turns this front door into a focal point. Periwinkle chairs, bluish flagstones, and worn and shiny blue flowerpots provide finishing touches that result in a captivatingly well-rounded composition.
