So take a look through our selection and pick the one that appeals the most!

1. ​Iron latticework

114, URBN URBN Minimalist house

Flat iron latticework can make your entrance look modern and artistic when used with the right lighting.

2. ​Neat statement

Make a neat statement with metal planks worked into a gate for the main entrance. The wooden and chrome door on the side also shows off a combination of varied materials.

3. ​Elegant yet raw

The raw wooden appeal of this slim and elegant door is heightened by the panel that rises above the porch, in one long line of timber.

4. ​Steel beauty

The steel porch and door offer robust privacy, while slits in the porch let natural light in.

​5. Wood and glass

With stone detailing on the side, this wooden and glass door makes quite a rich statement. The large glass panel on top helps natural light to filter in generously.

6. ​Aligned to the side

Your front door can be aligned to the side with a large border for the frame as it swings open.

7. ​Imposing double door

Choose wooden double doors and an exposed concrete facade to make a rich, modern statement.

8. ​Frosted glass

The ethereal good looks of this home come from the stone frame holding the frosted glass doors in place. As here, you can also layer the look with glass around the frame.

9. ​Edgy good looks

This door creates a spectacularly edgy statement that shines with its illuminated frame. The steel door stands out thanks to the lighting.

​10. Open look

This open look has been layered with concrete pillars and a wide wooden door set in a black metal frame

11. ​Flights of whimsy

Designed by the architects at Excelencia En Diseno, this whimsical entrance is surrounded by a neat stone frame and glass wall, while the large door swings open on hinges placed at the top and bottom only.

​12. A bright door

For vibrant pop of colour, use a bright red door in a plain white or wooden facade.

​13. All in the details

The glass panel on the side of these double black doors makes a cool monochrome statement.

​14. Practical style

This elegant high doorway has a panel on top to match the rest of the facade. The linear dimensions make the building seem even loftier.

15. Floating door

The door on the side of this house is a wooden one with a small panel to let in natural light. This style can be used for a bright and quirky look. Use wood for the door to offset a stone or white-washed facade.
