Spring Refresh: Transform Your Home’s Entryway with a New Front Door & Paint
As the seasons change, it’s the perfect time to give your home’s exterior a fresh, welcoming look. One of the most impactful (and cost-effective) ways to upgrade your curb appeal is by refreshing your front door and entryway paint.
At Dad For Hire, we recently completed a stunning front door and entryway makeover that completely revitalized the home’s appearance. Today, we’re sharing the before-and-after photos, along with tips on how a simple update can make a big difference for your home this spring and summer.
Before: A Dated, Worn-Out Entryway
The home’s original front door had seen better days—faded paint, minor wear and tear, and an aged color that no longer complemented the house. The surrounding trim and entryway walls were also looking tired, with peeling paint and a lack of contrast.
Key Issues:
✔ Faded, bubbling or chipped paint on the door and trim
✔ Lack of contrast between the door and siding
✔ Wear and tear from weather exposure
After: A Bold, Inviting Entryway
We transformed this home’s entrance with a freshly painted front door in a rich, modern hue, along with crisp, clean trim and a repainted entryway. The result? Instant curb appeal and a welcoming first impression.
Key Improvements:
✔ New front door paint in a standout color (deep navy, classic black, or bold red are great choices)
✔ Freshly painted trim & siding for a polished look
✔ Added contrast to highlight architectural details
✔ Sealed & protected surfaces to withstand summer sun and rain
Why Refresh Your Front Door & Entryway for Spring/Summer?
Boost Curb Appeal – Your front door is the focal point of your home’s exterior. A fresh coat of paint makes it pop.
Increase Home Value – A well-maintained entryway enhances perceived (and actual) home value.
Protect Against Weather – Quality exterior paint helps guard against UV rays, moisture, and temperature changes.
Quick & Affordable Update – Compared to major renovations, painting is a budget-friendly way to make a big impact.
Choosing the Right Front Door Color
Not sure which color to pick? Here are some trending (and timeless) options:
Classic Black – Sleek and sophisticated
Deep Blue or Navy – Modern and inviting
Bold Red or Brick – Warm and traditional
Soft Sage or Gray-Green – Subtle and earthy
Pro Tip: Match your door color to your home’s existing siding and roof tones for a cohesive look.
