Contemporary door design Traditional design with v-groove

Red has long been a classic choice for homeowners seeking a bold statement for their front door, and in 2025, it's all about manifesting the life you want—starting right at your doorstep. Our Bespoke Doors are now available in seven colours, with the bold new addition of 'Pillar Box Red'. Throughout history, a red door has symbolized prosperity, stability, and success. This colour carries a legacy of being both classic and fearless—so who wouldn’t want to attract all that good energy?

Pillar Box Red is a vivid, iconic shade of red famously associated with the British postal service. The colour takes its name from the traditional red post boxes, known as "pillar boxes," which were first introduced in the United Kingdom in the 1850s.

This rich, bold red has a slightly warm undertone, often described as a classic, timeless shade. RAL 3020, this red exudes confidence and energy, making it a standout choice for any front door. Its vibrant yet sophisticated hue ensures high visibility, instantly elevating curb appeal while maintaining a sense of warmth and welcome. Whether paired with traditional brick, crisp white render, or sleek modern exteriors, this colour choice remains versatile and has proven to never go out of style.

Pillar Box Red continues to evoke a sense of nostalgia and national pride, symbolizing a deep connection to history and community. Its timeless appeal, rooted in tradition, makes it not only a bold and striking choice for front doors but also a colour that resonates with both the past and the present.

Whether you’re drawn to its rich historical significance or its ability to make a statement, Pillar Box Red remains a staple hue for homeowners. It’s a colour that doesn’t just decorate a space—it brings it to life.

Manifest that main-character moment—starting with your front door.
