Grey Composite Doors are exciting?
Back in the late 80’s early 90’s a television programme called “Spitting Image” created a caricature of the then prime Minister – Mr John Major – based upon their assessment of his character and his demeanour they turned the very healthy looking individual on the left into the “grey” and “boring” character on the left.
Although “grey” was regarded as aboring colour long before this”Spitting Image”, the image of a grey John Major was one that was to live on long after the end of the programme.
To steal a phrase from the “Empowered by colour” web site – “The colour grey is an unemotional colour. It is detached, neutral, impartial and indecisive – the fence-sitter.”
“In the meaning of colours, grey is conservative, boring, drab and depressing on the one hand and elegant and formal on the other, yet never glamorous”
-all of which may explain the unfortunate “tag” that has dogged Mr Major for years.
At Global Door, we cannot support this view that “Grey is boring” far from it we think that our grey doors are exciting, bold and very glamourous indeed
Whether it be a traditional door or a contemporary door every one of our twenty one styles is available with a grey exterior and when the styles are matched with compatible hardware and glazing they can look stunning the term “drab and depressing” simply does not apply to any of our doors take the two examples below –
one contemporary with diamond pattern glazing and matching glass and stunning bow handle”elegant (most certainly) and formal (never)”
one traditional with classic patterned glazing and gold hardware “elegant (definitely) and formal (possibly) “
and in our opinion they are both most certainly glamourous,
as are all of our range of doors when selected in grey.
If there are any lingering doubts as to how good a Grey door can look check out our “gallery page” use the filter to find the colour of your choice (in this case grey- but a dozen other colours are available) and there you will find photographs of doors we have already installed like this”2 panel 4 square with side panels and top box”
We chose this image deliberately because it is not a simple door and frame but a complex mix of door, frame side panel and glazing and it is grey and it could never be described as boring plus it showcases that we at Global Door, do not do just the simple stuff we have doors and frames to match any location.
Join the grey revolution – order your new grey front door from Global Door, lets destroy that boring image forever.
