What color should I paint my front door?

DH is chomping at the bit (read: driving me nuts) about painting our front door. I have no clue what color to choose. The front of our house is red brick; the sides are grayish siding. What would you do?

Do you have shutters?

Picture? Maybe black?

With red brick? If the house was all gray, I'd think about red.

I'm horrible with decisions like this.

No. (I'd like to though)

This is the color of the brick. (It's the best I can do until I'm actually at home.)

Tlex, I had not considered yellow, but that might look nice.

@Mevaroo‌ navy was my big idea last night. DH wasn't a fan because too many coats of paint... But DH doesn't get a vote.

@Avswolf‌ I love that teal one too! You gals have been so helpful.

We just did our shutters and front door in a cobalt blue. I can post a pic when we get home.

We did ours a dark teal and LOVE it. I like that messy green TLex suggested too

Yellow!

Ok the screen door is hiding the front door but you can see the shutters. It's a different blue..not really navy.. maybe royal?
A few people thought it was purple but I think they are color blind!

I love it @TessyMessy‌!

I love the second one,
@vshumway‌!

We're going to Home Depot tomorrow. I've promised DH we'll make a selection. Otherwise I'd make a poll and make you choose for me.
