Can somebody provide help in recommending what double doors would look best on this home?

    I do need advice on the interior entry way- type of flooring paint and stairwell.

    looking to keep the Tuscan look but tie in a Parisian flare.

    The EXTERIOR ENTRY, NOT THE FOYER.

    The home is transitional contemporary so no heavy iron doors on this house.


    You can see the house looks so much better without the awnings.



    I can see you have a very creative frieze or relief on the upper portion of the house. I'm not sure that gold is the right paint color.



    I think they shoud closer to a stone color.


    All the awnings have seen better days. If sun control is an issue there maybe better ways to address that instead of all these random shape awnings.


    I think the current selection of 8 panel doors fits the design of the house perfectly for the period. I would NOT REPLACE THE DOORS.

    Maybe they need to be refinished, and you might want to consider something besides the current storm doors for the entry.

    I just googled exterior double doors , but I believe that one of these was from Wayfair.

    Get rid of the double doors, they are inherent leakers without a major overhang. 42" single door with sideliets wpould be my go to every time. A real lumberyard would be where you want to shop for exterior doors. There or a custom millwork shop if the quality wants to be higher.

    I need to see the space you are asking about. Those awnings look out of place so much better picture of the front of the home please .. I grew up in a home with double doors in Calagry and never had an issue I happen to like them often for ease of entry to large items and they just suit some homes . I cannot see your doors and as for controlling heat and UV interior solar shades do a great job without those awnings that IMO do not suit the house at all.
