Front door or the start of the house jewelry....

When OB came over on Saturday, besides going over the financials we looked at the schedule and looked at what we needed to be deciding on so it could be ordered in time to get to the site on time (JIT for you B folk out there....). The question of doors come up and we spent a good deal of time looking through the catalog for the front door. I never knew there were so many types, styles, warranties, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Links to our first, second and third choices are below: (I couldn't get the pics to come over correctly)

(note--this model without the "red art glass"--just plain clear for us, thank you....)

(see note above)

Any thoughts????? (I'd love to see if the comment button actually works---please be nice)

The other issue is that the plan calls out for an EIGHT FOOT DOOR---all of the above are not of that stature. The eight footers that we looked at were not that inspiring so may scale back and just have a SEVEN FOOT DOOR. Like I will ever come close to ducking to get inside.....

I like #1 and #3! And I like the red--adds a bit of "panache"! Of course, this is from the one with a front door painted "merlot"...

I liked the first one. But, what style is your home to be? That might make a difference.

What a crazy project!
