Professional Painting in Vancouver: French, Patio & Back Doors

French and patio doors basically function like windows and are most visually successful when painted the same colour as the windows of the house.

French doors can be treated as a window or as a door. If you choose to treat them as windows, then paint them the same as the other windows on the house. French doors look good accented when they are part of a larger architectural pattern (like an archade) or are a major statement
