Q: Should both sides of a door be painted / stained the same color?

Replacing interior doors: the doors we are replacing are wood stained on both sides. We have painted our bedrooms and I wondered if I should paint the bedroom side the same color and stain the outer side or should it be the same on both sides?

  • A: Totally a personal choice



    The short answer is you can do either to suit your preference; but make sure to paint/stain the corresponding edge to match:

    Open the door halfway - the edge you see should match the side you see... the other two should match as well
