How Anthracite uPVC Back Doors compare to other finishes
When looking for a new back door, finish is as important as style, and Anthracite Grey is perfect for capturing a modern aesthetic – but how does it compare to other finishes? To found out, we need to look at:
- Anthracite Grey itself: A dark grey finish
- Black and White: Stark and contrasting
- Lighter finishes: For calmer environments
- Woodgrains: For natural looks
uPVC Doors in Anthracite Grey
What is Anthracite: A dark grey not too far from Black.
Description: Our Anthracite Grey finish is not only suited to modern homes due to its neutral tone, but with its dark shade provides a commanding presence within your doorway, as dark finishes are perfect for giving homes a formal air.
Black and White uPVC Doors
Why Black or White: Extreme shades that are great for contrast.
Description: Our Half Flat Panel Black uPVC Back Doors and Half Flat Panel White uPVC Doors are ideal for bringing out contrast within homes. These two finishes are stark, while Anthracite Grey stands out without overpowering.
uPVC Doors in soft tones
Our soft tones: The light Agate Grey and pastel Chartwell Green.
Description: Both softer shades, Half Flat Panel Agate Grey uPVC Back Doors and the colourful Half Flat Panel Chartwell Green uPVC Doors provide a more relaxed tone than Anthracite Grey, which is more suited to creating a serious atmosphere.
Woodgrains for uPVC Doors
Our woodgrains: The dark Rosewood, light Irish Oak and medial Golden Oak.
Description: Perfect for a natural appearance, our Half Flat panel Golden Oak uPVC Back Doors and the lighter Half Flat Panel Classic Irish Oak uPVC Doors look like traditional timber doors, while our Half Flat panel Rosewood uPVC Back Doors offer a darker and formal tone akin to Anthracite Grey. The wooden effect is well-suited to traditional styles, while the solid finish of Anthracite Grey works with contemporary homes.
To summarise, Anthracite Grey is ideal for formal and contemporary doorways, when compared to stark tones such as Black and White, the more light-hearted tones of Agate Grey and Chartwell Green, and more traditional woodgrains.
