Your front door is one of the first things someone sees when visiting your house. It makes the first impression, setting the tone for your home’s style and personality. That’s why we think you should really consider the design and look of your door before making your choice.

As we progress further into 2024, we’re seeing some new trends in front door design that offer an insight into what people want to say about their homes. Whether you prefer classic elegance or modern flair, here are the top five front door design trends to consider this year:

1. Bold Colours

The classics are the classics for a reason and grey, black, and white are still very much a popular choice for front door colour. However, we are seeing an uptick in the amount of people choosing to stand out with their door colour.

We attribute this trend to the boost in popularity of maximalist design and people wanting to make a strong, bold, and colourful statement with their homes.

2. Modern Privacy Glass

With modern style entryways, the more natural light the better, that means big apertures and sidelights. However, there appears to be a move towards ensuring that those big windows don’t result in less privacy. Homeowners are opting for sophisticated contemporary frosted or etched glass panels that provide privacy without compromising on that natural light

3. Natural Wood Finishes

The timeless appeal of natural wood continues to dominate front door trends in 2024. This trend isn’t just limited to one style, we’re seeing traditional stained natural wood looks that reference Victorian styles alongside modern, minimalist styles with a fresh timber look.

With a surge in homeowners stripping painted woodwork internally, that treatment is spreading to the outside with customers selecting natural wood looks for their front door as well.

4. Modern Decorative Glass

Another trend that transcends genres is that of modern decorative glass designs. From maximalist to minimalist, 2024 customers are opting for new styles of decorative door glass. From sleek, geometric shapes to intricate etched designs and stained glass, homeowners are no longer shy of customising their door glazing as well as the style and colour.

5. Extra-large Entrances

In the world of modern architecture, extra-large entrances are becoming a more common way to add drama and luxury to a property. We’re seeing an increase in double doors on larger properties as well as large glazes panels either side of doorways to again bring increasing amounts of natural light into entryways.
