Back door paint color?

Front door is red on a grey siding with white trim. What color for the back doors? 1 French door off kitchen and 1 entrance to garage on same elevation in back. Both lead to a deck.
Thanks!

Thanks to all who replied. We ditched the shutters, sun was just too much for the fake vinyl shutters. I'm into the red, maybe not periwinkle, but peacock blue is a contender.

    3 ideas popped into my mind. Depending on your decor and taste, you could: match the back doors to the front, or do something fun like a bright, sunny yellow! If that's not your cup of tea, something more classic like a Williamsburg blue could work. Like I said, it all depends on your taste and decor! Maybe start with some paint samples first (most home improvement stores will be able to mix small sizes for you to test), before you spend tons of $$ on full sized gallons. Have with it!

    Greg, it is tough to decide this, without seeing the door. If you have a favorite color, you can use this, or use white/red trim. If you have green shutters on your windows, you can use your choice on which color you desire. Ours is white., and our windows are trimmed in white. So, to us this is a cleaner color. Greg, lay diff colors next to your door, and see which one looks the cleanest to you. I hope this helps you. J.
