Hi.
Our home is getting a reno because we will probably sell it when we retire in a few years. It was built in 1988 and the outside has been repainted a few times. It has "black and tan" bricks (brown, maroon and navy) with a dark blue tile roof, tan features above the door and windows, and the original bronze anodised window frames.
The window frames have discoloured from all the sunlight on them, and I am thinking of painting them charcoal, same as I repainted the guttering and fascia. Last year we bought a clear awning over the huge front window. The awning has a charcoal frame.
I want to get some security screens for the front door (maybe) and front windows (definitely). Do you think I should go for charcoal frames or stick to bronze? If we keep the current old fashioned aluminium mesh screen door, would you get matching mesh window screens, or get the modern steel mesh like was discussed a few weeks ago in the crimsafe thread?
I'll have to get a new photo tomorrow
Thanks
