WE HAVE A WINNER... announcing the front door colour you chose for the Build It House!

Last month, we invited our readers, website users and social media followers to help us select the best colour for the Build It Education House’s Funkyfront Door, which will be manufactured and supplied by Kloeber.

We want to make a real statement here, and the Funkyfront range is the perfect fit. It gives us plenty of design options, from the panel and frame style through to the ironmongery – plus our choice of the 213 colours in the RAL Classic collection. Our shortlist included a bright orange (RAL 2009), a classy dark blue (RAL 5011), grey-yellow to match the window frames (RAL 7034) and a zingy yellow (RAL 1023). We can have a dual-colour finish, so we’re going with white on the inside face to match the decor internally.

Hundreds of you cast your votes for our front door colour, and it was a closerun thing for a while, with blue, yellow and orange neck-and-neck in the initial stages. But by the end, a clear winner emerged – and I’m pleased to announce the winner is RAL 2009 Traffic Orange. We can’t wait to see it in the flesh!
