dusty5 Where did you get this door? Trying to get one like this

kristinbflo Hi Brian,
Can you please tell me where to get the knocker and peephole combo. We are in the process of building a home, and I just love that look!!! Also, we are having a tough time finalizing our brick, and would GREATLY appreciate it if you could tell us what brick you used. We are supposed to have our brick finalized this week, so any help would be wonderful!
Thanks!

Gretchen Greer gretchen@yahoo.com Would love to see more pictures of this house Thanks!

Anne DeCocco Looks like a gray stain to me. Goes great with those bricks.

rcwright I live in Kentucky, building a new home and desperately want the manufacturer and name of the brick used on the front of this home

bulldawgy Yes, it is smoother, cool, and easy to clean. If your porch gets no sun, then bluestone is traditional and beautiful. Our old pool deck was in the random ashlar pattern and was lovely(just like your picture). I think you have to weigh how easy it is to mop on a porch, food and drinks get spilled. How rough is the actual bluestone you are considering using? I think heat will only be increased if the porch gets sun. We had to run across our pool deck barefoot to a shade spot going youch, youch! If your porch is not getting much sun, it would be fine. I would just consider ability to clean easily and beauty. You can pressure wash a pool deck easily, a screened porch, not so easily. Our current screened porch is cola stained concrete with large diagonal cuts and is easy to mop. You could also consider some large porcelain tiles with a stone look. Ah, but nothing really beats the pure beauty of real stone.

bamamom deedeelouise, great question. I hope others will respond as well.
We just redid the deck that is attached to the house, raised, and covered/screened it in. I decided to do an area rug for this winter and have plans to tile it next spring. The sun comes in around 4/4:30, so maybe the tile would not get to hot that late in the day.
I'm deep south as well.
Thanks.
