What’s The Most Popular Composite Door Colour?

Published: 18th February 2025

Choosing the right colour for your new front door or back door is an important decision. With composite doors becoming such a popular choice for both front and back doors, it’s no surprise that colour plays a major role in their appeal. Below, we’ll cover the most popular composite door colours and how you can make the right choice for your home.

 

Anthracite Grey Composite Doors

Anthracite Grey is one of the most sought-after composite front door colours. This classic shade offers a sleek and modern look that complements a variety of property styles, from contemporary new builds to traditional homes. Its neutral tone also matches any hardware choice, whether you prefer a polished chrome finish or a more understated black handle. Anthracite Grey is also an excellent choice for homeowners looking for a grey front door that stands out without being overly bold. Grey composite doors are versatile and easy to maintain, making them both practical and stylish.

 

Chartwell Green Composite Doors

For a softer, more traditional look, Chartwell Green remains a favourite among homeowners. This charming shade is perfect for cottages, Victorian terraces, and other period properties. Its subtle green tone adds character and warmth, making it ideal for those looking to create a welcoming entrance.

Chartwell Green is particularly popular for 1930s composite front doors, as it captures the classic aesthetic of that era. Pair it with decorative glass or traditional door knockers for a truly timeless appearance.

Looking to update your composite back door too? Chartwell Green is a fantastic choice for garden-facing doors, blending seamlessly with outdoor spaces. Download our composite door brochure to get more information on our green composite door colours.

 

Black Composite Doors

Black composite doors are a popular choice for homeowners seeking a bold, statement-making entrance. In the UK, nearly one in five people choose a black front door. A black composite front door works beautifully on both traditional and contemporary properties, offering a sharp contrast to lighter brickwork or exterior paint colours.

Thanks to their ability to hide dirt and wear, black doors are not only chic but also practical for busy households. Pair a black composite door with stainless steel hardware or obscured glass for a striking finish.

 

Blue Composite Doors

A blue composite door is a versatile choice, with shades ranging from Violet Blue to Duck Egg Blue. Blue is a popular option for homeowners looking to add personality without straying too far from traditional styles. Classic Blue works well on period properties, such as Victorian-style composite doors, while lighter blues, such as Powder Blue, pair beautifully with our Cottage Collection and are perfect for coastal homes or those wanting a fresh and airy feel.

 

Dusty Pink Composite Doors

For those wanting something a little more unique, Dusty Pink composite doors are growing in popularity. This muted pink shade adds a modern yet playful touch to your entrance, making it ideal for homeowners who want to stand out. Dusty Pink works beautifully on 1930s composite front doors, adding character and charm to the outside of your home. While Dusty Pink may not be as traditional as grey or black, it’s a great choice for those who want their home to have a personal touch.

Why Colour Matters for Composite Doors

The colour of your composite front door or composite back door must complement the style of your home. A well-chosen door colour can:

  • Enhance your home’s kerb appeal.
  • Reflect your personal style and taste.
  • Tie together exterior features, such as windows, brickwork, or landscaping.
  • Add long-lasting character to your property.

Whether you choose a grey front door for a modern look, a green composite door for traditional charm, or a bold black composite door, at Hurst Doors we offer a range of composite door colours to suit every preference.

 

Choosing the Right Colour for Your Composite Door

If you’re unsure which colour to choose, here are some tips to help you decide:

  • Consider The Style of Your Property: Period properties often suit softer tones like Chartwell Green or Duck Egg Blue, while modern homes benefit from bold colours like Anthracite Grey or black.
  • Think About Longevity: Neutral colours like grey and black are timeless and won’t go out of style. These colours work with both Classic door styles and Contemporary door styles.
  • Match Existing Features: Ensure your door complements other exterior elements, such as window frames or garden features.
