Painting your front entryway door black may seem intimidating or even out of your comfort zone; but let me tell you, it’s so worth it! Black is not only a sophisticated color – it also pairs well with other accent colors. I’m excited to share what I think is the best black paint for your front entryway door.
Tricorn Black by Sherwin-Williams is my favorite shade of black. Tricorn Black is a true black with no undertones.
I painted our Entryway door last year in the color Black Beauty by Benjamin Moore but unknowingly received it in gloss, which was way too shiny once applied to the door. To cut down the shine, I painted over the Black Beauty with the Tricorn Black in semi-gloss.
Don’t forget to prep before painting. It’s a tedious process, but it yields a better paint job in the end.
The entryway door makes a huge statement because I not only painted the door but also included the sidelights to make the entryway door appear larger.
If you’re still on the fence about painting your front door black, hopefully, the results I accomplished with my entryway door makeover are enough to convince you to take the plunge.
