Who knew 'door furniture' was a term? 😂

Have one on order - silver grey RAL 7001. Ordered it a month ago but won't be fitted till late October. Apparently the world and his wife have been spending their holiday money on new doors & windows.

Oxford Blue . Was bright red, I stripped and repainted it last year while on furlough.

@Ohshittt Coffin furniture is also a term. I use it a lot at work (Archaeologist)

You’ve just reminded me of a time when I used to type up case notes for a forensic archaeologist, which was probably the last time I wrote ‘coffin furniture’. Grin

Dark blue. Don't know the make but it's pvc that looks like wood and has some lovely hardware.

RandomUsernameHere · 09/07/2021 20:54

Dark green. I didn't choose it but quite like the colour.

LadyEloise · 09/07/2021 20:55

I passed a house today where the owners change the door colour frequently.
I usually glance in as I'm driving past it to sed what they've done.
It's a white, detached double fronted house. The door had been pale pink, black, pale blue and now is a deep pink. Almost a puce colour. .
Very different. Very nice

@Wbeezer I was thinking of painting my garden door this colour, would you mind positing a picture so I can see what it looks like please?

Dancingonmoonlight · 09/07/2021 20:58

Is it better to have glossy or Matt door paint? I like glossy on doors but I don’t know why as we use matt paint everywhere else. I wonder if gloss would scratch?

LadyEloise · 09/07/2021 21:02

I think the door colour might be Dingle by Sandtex - it's purple not puce. Blush

Could somebody do a link please.
It's on Santex.ie - Ten colourful doors that are perfect for spring. It's the second one down.

LadyEloise · 09/07/2021 21:04

Aggh the door is in Dingle. Dingle isn't the name of the paint colour.
Jesus wept. 🙈

TheLovelinessOfDemons · 09/07/2021 21:06

Forest green.

starfishmummy · 09/07/2021 21:06

British Racing Green. Cant remember the brand but nearly everyone does it.
