Our Composite Front Door Colour Trends

Composite doors are so versatile when it comes to style and colour, there are so many options it can often be difficult to choose the right design for your home.

To help, we have pulled together a guide showing the colour trends that are emerging.

Composite Door - Maxwell - Contemporary Collection - Anthracite Grey

 

Grey

A top colour trend for front doors at present, Anthracite Grey is often the colour of choice for the most style-conscious of homeowners. Not only is it a timeless colour but will look great all year round so it’s no wonder it is a popular colour choice.   Shadow Grey delivers a lighter tone in comparison to the dark hues of anthracite, either way, grey is a sure firm favourite for those who desire a sophisticated, modern and stylish alternative to black.
