Customize Your Door with Exterior Door Accessories
We get it – doors can seem a bit boring at times. When you think about customization, personalization, or accessories, doors aren’t usually the first part of your home that comes to mind. But there are numerous exterior door accessories that you can use to enhance your door to make it more appealing beyond its basic function and help it stand out against a sea of regular, drab doors. Whether you’re trying to match a specific style, promote natural light, or just add some enhanced protection, we’ve put together a few exterior door accessories that will help you get the job done.
How to Customize Your Door
Glass Inserts
Decorative, textured, or even clear glass inserts can give your door an added flair and serve as the only exterior door accessories to allow natural light to shine through. A basic slab door may not be appealing, but adding a glass insert enables you to showcase your own style and tie it into other elements of your home.
Hinges and Straps
Hinges are often subtle in terms of exterior door accessories, but they can also be quite decorative. Stylish garage doors will often have large faux hinges to make them look like antique barn doors, but you can also utilize this style of hinge to make your front door look more prominent. Your hinges should be equipped to handle the weight of your door and provide a secure entry point, but there’s no reason they can’t be fancy.
Clavos:
These small round (or square) metal accents provide an interesting way to customize your door. Typically found in Rustic or Craftsman style homes, clavos provide a metallic look and add weight to your entry. Clavos are easy to apply and do not have to be installed to the interior of your home. And, they are an easy upgrade to provide curb appeal on a budget.
Speakeasy:
Your home and entry door may not have an option to add glass. Speakeasy accessories are not only a great option to keep your privacy, but also allow you to see who is at your door. And, with their metal frame, it provides an accent that works well with my home styles and provides security.
