Here's a similar door

I’m confused about your question - you want tile advise for the porch? Who will be doing your install?

I want advice on the porch, yes. I just don't have an exterior shot because the door will take 16 weeks.

IMO any tile willhave issues in an earthquake just like they do in old houses where the floors move . I think a conctrete would work but honestly I need to see the house not just this very poorly done tile

I detest the tile. It honestly looks like left over interior tile thrown on there or something. We're about the 5th owners. Here's the house...

Single resurface in the same cement finish as your driveway. Keep it simple.
