My front door is in the middle of a two car car port. People always walk around my house looking for the entrance. What do you think of an Orange door with the number 25 in elongated script? It is a 70's house with white cement brick ground floor and ship lap ceder on top floor. Thank you for your help, Carole

Go for it! It's going to look great. Give it a good scrubbing and remove all loose paint with a light sanding. Remove the door knob. Use a foam roller to apply a primer, and at least 2 coats of exterior enamel paint.
I love a bright front door color. It adds such curb appeal and your guests will easily spot it. Good luck.
I agree ... you can always change if you aren't happy but I bet you will like it.

I'd try to make then entire entrance more visible/attractive; if they can't see the door, changing the color won't matter; Put flower pots with colorful plants ( real or artificial) on either side; put up a porch light with an LED bulb that you can leave on all day;
if you use that area for your cars/storage, etc., try to 'declutter' as best you can; put a 'SIGN' on the corner of the carport - on the side most likely to be where people would enter ... use the flower pots/and a cute sign ...

Place full length shutters on each side of the door. Paint them an eye catching color. A "Welcome" wreath on the door, maybe battery lights on the wreath.
