How Doors Can Enhance Your Home’s Aesthetics

How Doors Can Enhance Your Home’s Aesthetics

When considering making home updates, front door replacement is not usually at the top of the list. Typically, once a person walks through the door, it is forgotten in favor of the other design elements in the house. The front door, however, can be a very important factor that directly affects the aesthetics of your home. Below are reasons you might consider moving ‘new front door installation’ to the front of your mind.

Increased Curb Appeal

The color of your door may be more important than you think! It has been shown that people tend to like when a front door matches the other elements of the house. So if you’re looking to impress others with your design choices, going with a door that fits in well with your roof, shutters, and garage door is right for you. On the other hand, it can be an exciting design choice to pick a bold color for your front door. This contrast can be visually appealing as long as the color fits in with the other colors of the home. Both a door that matches perfectly or one that coordinates but also stands out will make people want to stop and take a look.

The material you choose for your door can also intrigue guests. A door made of stainless steel is considered more safe, and therefore may increase curb appeal. Most people want peace of mind when buying a new home and a front door that comes with decreased risk of robbery is an easy way to incentivize future buyers.

Make a Statement

Many modern front doors for homes have become statement pieces for the house. For instance, you can have an artisan wood door designed for your home that includes carvings and holds lots of beauty. These doors act similarly to a painting on a wall, catching the attention of people walking by or visiting the home. The front door becomes another design element of the house, making the home feel more luxurious and increasing visual appeal.

Artisanal wood is not the only way to create a high-quality grand impression. Luxury modern entrance doors can involve bold designs and compelling materials. These statement doors are a great way for the owner of the home to express themself and bring more of their personal style into their home. Combining personal style and the architectural style of a designer is the best way to create an inviting and aesthetically pleasing arrangement.

Increase Natural Light

A front door that is filled with windows is a great way to create a warm entrance into a home. Windows and doors often go hand in hand, so combining the two can help brighten your space. Depending on the style of your home, allowing more light to enter through the front could be a great way to boost energy efficiency in your home as well. The more natural light you are getting, the less you will need to rely on electricity.

People tend to enjoy natural light more than artificial, so the more ways you can add it into your home the better. A door with windows will also increase the aesthetics of your home because the style will look more custom than an average wood door.

What Our Clients Say

Customer Reviews

White Oak Construction,
Thank you for the wonderful job you did replacing my old roof!!
You came in a very timely manner, a lot sooner than expected.
You corrected an error in ordering before installation began, which saved time and money..... Good job to the employee that caught the mistake!!!
Everything was cleaned up and discarded post installation.
The new roof looks great and everything is up to code.  Which gives me peace of mind looking toward the future. I wanted to wait until I got low hanging trees cut away from the roof before taking pictures.
Thank you for granting me a professional and nice installation process.
Nina Ziegelman
We are very pleased with the doors, storm door and all the wrapping work on several door frames. The guys working on this job were very knowledgeable and proficient.  I highly recommend White Oak Constuction and the workers.
Gloria & Kenneth
Our experience with White Oak Construction was an awesome one. Russel and Donnie were wonderful with the a thorough over view and break down of the products. We appreciated the patience and knowledge they had when explaining the products. After seeing a demonstration, we decided this is the product for us. Appointment scheduling was quick with the work done within the next week. James and Sam came and replaced a sliding glass door and window. It was done fast and efficient with any and all questions answered. About a week later my dog did happen to knock our new screen off the track and I was worried about how to get it back on, I gave White Oak a call and they came and fixed it. I will definitely be getting additional work done with White Oak.
Desiree
We had a wonderful experience with Matt and Eric from White Oak. Like most homeowners, we dreaded the process of finding a company we could trust, navigating all the ins and outs, and, quite frankly, all the things we don’t know. White Oak provided an on-site walk through, asked questions to better understand the challenges of the property, and even climbed into the attic to inspect it and prevent any unforeseen issues. We were happily surprised with how knowledgeable they were and comforted by how candidly they spoke with us about our concerns over taking on such a costly project. They listened to us and put our minds at ease by explaining the available financing options. We feel comfortable with White Oak because they've been around for 40 years and have a reputation for guaranteeing the quality of their products and workmanship.

I had 4 old, rusted basement windows replaced with new, energy-efficient windows. The White Oak sales people were personable and knowledgeable. The men who installed the windows did a great job. They removed the old windows and handled an unexpected glitch with speed. The new windows were installed, framed, and sealed in just a few hours. The new windows definitely improve the look of the basement both inside and out. I look forward to opening the new windows this summer and allowing some fresh air to circulate. That has not been an option in the past.

We recently had 4 windows and a front door installed in our home by White Oak Construction. The White Oak crew arrived on time and made quick work of our installation project. The door and the windows look great! We are very pleased with their professional workmanship and would like to give a special shout out to Rick, who was very informative and friendly throughout the process. Thank you, White Oak!

I was in the market for a bay window and had spoken with several construction companies when I encountered White Oak Construction at the Indiana State Fair. I met with Jeff Long and Joe Myers and was impressed with their window demonstration. I would definitely recommend White Oak Construction for their high-quality windows and excellent price.
Cheryl Black
White Oak Construction is such a fantastic company. I have talked to numerous employees of White Oak and I get the same result ... they make me happy. I am very satisfied with all of their work in numerous areas of my house. They didn’t tell me what I needed, they showed me what I needed and I like that. Paul was awesome. He treated me with respect and made me feel like I was a family friend. Thank you for a job well done.
Mary C. Smith

Coy A. Gentz
Seven years ago we had you install 14 windows ni our home and we loved them. We had 4 newer windows at the time and decided that we would not replace them. Over time those inferior windows that were bought at a local store began to fail and the room became drafty and cold. So we called you again and had you replace those 4 windows along with 2 windows ni the garage. We are so happy with the new windows. They look so great and are so easy to clean. We were so happy with al of the people that help to get our windows. They were al very friendly and helpful. They are excellent windows and worth every penny that we spent. The installation was great! Thanks again for doing another great job on our windows. Sincerely, John and Marian Dykes
John and Marian Dykes
I just wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude to every single employee at White Oak Construction. Without exaggeration, every single person I dealt with from your company took the time to get to know me as a person and allow me to get to know them, and their families/lives - who they are. I’ve seen a lot in my 64 years on this earth, but I’ve never seen the likes of the quality of your people and workmanship.
Crystal Miller
White Oak Construction contacted us at exactly the time we were looking for a contractor to replace our rotted cedar siding. Rather than replace our cedar siding, the White Oak team suggested we use vinyl instead to save money on future cedar replacements and upkeep. We loved that suggestion but had one requirement: that they maintain our home’s unique siding design and placement. White Oak finished our project in just 6 weeks and did a beautiful job duplicating the siding design. We appreciated their attention to detail and commitment to keeping us in the loop every step of the way. Even our neighbors have noticed and complimented their work!
Harding and Carol Kennedy
I would like to thank all of the people involved in this. I had my roof replaced and the entire process was smooth and well done. The job was done to my satisfaction and very high quality. The entire job took less than half of the time I expected and the quality of the work is outstanding. I would recommend calling this company for roof repair or replacement to anyone that needs the work done.
Robert Brooking
Would like to say thank you for putting my front window in my house. I have had several compliments on how good it looks! They were quick and thorough. Went right to work and didn’t stop until they were done. Cleaned up so well it did not look like they had even been here.
Connie Wayren
On August 18th our new door was delivered and installed. It is so beautiful! I could not have imagined how great it was going to look. It changes the look of the entire house and has such a nice tight seal. Scott, the young man who installed it, is beyond words. What great work. Installed and cleaned up in a couple hours. Our salesman Rob was top notch also. He helped me pick the color for the door and I want him to know how perfect it was. I feel that I have the most beautiful front door in town. This is the second time we have used White Oak Construction and I promise you if you need work done they do quality work and use quality products. They are better than all the rest.
Matt and Mariellen Tipton
We are so happy with our new windows from White Oak Construction! From the sales team to the installation technician, everyone was so quick to help us in this process. Not only are the windows of excellent quality, the installation was very fast. We are so happy with our windows and we look forward to working with White Oak again in the future! Thank you everyone!
Allie Bland
On October 6, 2020, I had three of the six windows in my house replaced by White Oak Construction. The windows I had replaced are in the front room of my house. Two of the windows face the east and one faces the north. The two that face the east were originally double hung windows and were replaced with an encasement window with a tint to it. The tint reflects the sunlight which has helped to keep the front room from getting too warm. The other window was a double hung window replaced with another double hung window. This window has a half screen which allows me to open it from the top or bottom. This feature is very beneficial to me as I have a large dog. The old windows were twenty years old and leaking a lot of air. The front window was about to fall out because they had come loose from the frame of the house.
Victoria Irwin
White Oak Construction gave me a free estimate of my roof and siding and found that I needed drip edge installed on my roof. The two gentlemen showed me what my roof looked like, what it should look like, and why it was needed. The installers who did the work did an excellent job, they were able to complete it in one day and showed me the work. Very well done! I would definitely do work with them in the future if I have other needs.
Jonathan OCain
Thank you for working with us to install 6 new replacement windows. The people that we interacted with from the sales team through installation were great, both helpful and friendly. We had 8 windows replaced by White Oak Construction a couple of years ago and when we needed these windows replaced, we knew that they would do a good job and give us the kind of quality windows we wanted at a reasonable price.
