Your home’s entry door is the first thing guests see, so you have the power to create a lasting impression for each person who visits your home. Use these incredible tips to make your entry door stand out!

Add Greenery Around the Doorway

Nothing communicates a welcoming home environment quite like natural elements. Add potted plants and flowers on the porch or incorporate hanging plants from the ceiling of the overhang at the front door. Each addition will make your entryway cozy and inviting.

Upgrade the Door’s Handle and Lock

Select a sleek, brushed nickel handle and a sturdy deadbolt with a modern design to complement your door’s rich finish. If you’re looking to enhance the charm of your rustic-styled home, then a bronze finish, a traditional arch-shaped deadbolt, and vintage-inspired door handles will complement your wooden entry door.

By upgrading your door’s handle and lock, you can transform its appearance and add elegance to your entryway while strengthening your home’s security.

Improve the Porch Lighting

Neighbors can’t see all your new additions without sufficient lighting. A helpful tip to make your entry door stand out is to fix up the porch lighting. Hang a rustic lantern above the doorframe, or add two recessed spotlights on the sides of the door. Fully illuminate each decoration by placing electric candles or lanterns on the floor. Every light you add will make your entry door radiate beauty!

Decorate the Front Porch for Each Holiday

Decorating your front porch for each holiday is a festive way to add unquestionable charm to your front porch. This could involve wreaths, banners, or other decorative elements that correspond with each holiday season. It’s a simple yet effective way to keep your home’s entrance looking inviting all year round.

Replace the Entry Mat

A worn-out entry mat can undermine the appeal of your otherwise charming front door. Replacing the entry mat is an easy and affordable way to refresh the appearance of your home’s entryway. Choose a mat with a fun, welcoming message or a bold design to make a statement. Perhaps you’ll accumulate a collection of seasonal entry mats to stay stylish throughout the year!

Choose a Custom Carved Door

Not all entry doors have simplistic panels and traditional patterns. One opportunity to make your entry door stand out is to choose custom carved doors.
