How To Give Your Entrance A Great Modern Look

How to modernise your entrance

Your home is one of your proudest possessions and it’s always a lovely feeling when someone compliments it.

Can’t remember the last time that a house visitor showered it with praise? Perhaps your entrance needs a makeover as it is a huge focal point.

As well as attracting plaudits, a modernised entrance will also put value on your home, so it’s worth the time, money and effort involved in sprucing it up.

New front door

A pretty-looking front door is a must, so if your current front door isn’t up to standard, explore the replacement door range of Mitchell Glass either online or in our Galashiels showroom.

Any of our UPVC, composite or aluminium designs will give your home the kerb appeal it needs and make it wonderfully stylish again.

After pinpointing a design that you like, you will be asked what coloured finish you want. White is a traditional favourite, but something more modern, a grey shade is probably your best bet. There’s also the option of having a dual-coloured door, allowing you to have different finishes externally and internally.

Wide range of colours

Plants outside

To emphasise a new door, or to just liven up your current door, put a pair of plants outside to frame it.

Topiary trees are a popular choice of plant for this purpose, which are normally beautifully trimmed and look completely immaculate.

It wouldn’t be advisable to put more than a couple of plants on display for fear that it just becomes a bit too much – less is more.

Dress your door

Attractive door furniture

Any door needs to be accessorised with hardware and included in our furniture suites is many different types of handles and door knockers, and much more.

You will see very traditional door knockers, such as designs with animal faces, along with modern alternatives, like chrome bars and rings, which are very simplistic, but in a good way.

The latest fashion is to also add an oversized number plate to a door, or alternatively, have it installed on one of the walls next to it.

Finishing touches

Statements like these will leave you with one of the most stunning entrances on the street. If you decide you need and want a new door, just request a quote from Mitchell Glass here.
