Painting your front door instantly creates curb appeal and is one of the simplest ways to refresh the outside of your home. ✨
Looking for a small project with big impact? Start with your front door.
✅ Choose a shade that’ll make you smile every time you pull into the driveway.
✅ Use a high-quality exterior paint in a satin finish, resistant to the elements.
✅ Pop the door off the hinges and remove the hardware.
✅ Give it a good scrub and let it dry.
✅ Sand it down with 120-grit sandpaper for a flawless base.
✅ Use painter’s tape to protect those decorative details.
✅ Apply a solid coat of primer, followed by 2–3 coats of paint.
✅ Let it dry completely.
