Use Front Door Accessories For Added Curb Appeal

The property industry is a competitive market. If you’re putting your home up for sale it’s important to give a good first impression to potential buyers. A tasteful interior decor will increase the chance of selling your property. However, ignoring the appearance of the entrance could also put off buyers. A good first step is to add some good quality front door accessories for some extra curb appeal.

Here are some things you can do to improve the appearance of your property.

Letterbox

A polished metal letter-plate gives a dark coloured door some added features. Just make sure that it matches the same finish as any front door accessories that are fitted to the front door.

Door Knocker

To ensure your door has a balanced look simply add a door knocker to your front door. A traditional knocker gives your door a classic look.

House Letters & Door Numbers

Ensure that any house letters and door numbers are fitted in a contrasting colour to the front door – this will also make your property easier to find from the road. If you already have metal furniture fitted to the door, try matching this with metal screw fixed door numbers and door letters – they also look more prestigious, when compared to cheap plastic stick-on versions and are a more likely to stay fixed to the door.

New Door

If your door is in such a bad state of repair, maybe the time has come to purchase a new one entirely. There are so many to choose from, so we recommend that you visit Dawes & Green our door specialist website. They have a wide selection of contemporary doors and traditional doors available.

Tidy Up The Garden

Put black bin bags in rubbish bins and keep the entrance area clear and tidy. If you have to, take rubbish bags to the dump yourself.

Flower Basket

Finally, one of the last things you could do to make your property more inviting is to fit a flower basket to an exterior wall. Obviously this will depend on the time of year that you are putting your property on the market. However, spring flowers are inexpensive and are available in many places such as garden centres, supermarkets, even many grocery shops. Place plants and flowers in good quality planters and pots to give your home a welcoming appearance.
