Best Flooring for Entrance Porch
+3
We will be adding an entrance porch to our cottage and not sure what the best flooring options are.
It will be unheated, which means minus temperatures in winter and high temperatures in the hot summer days. We have heavy duty click vinyl planks in the cottage and enough left over to use in the entrance, but not sure the environment would be suitable.
It will be utilized as a shoe storage, wet coat and umbrella area.

I like tile. I also think that it really looks wonderful to have your porch done in tile as well for special effects. -

I recommend vinyl plank flooring. It is easy to install, comes in lots of patterns, and is very reasonable. Also, it is completely waterproof, which is great for an entryway. Check your local home center or flooring stores for options in your area. -

I agree with Michele! Vinyl planks. Your click vinyl planks would work great! -

One of the longest to use is plastic wood - this may be expensive, otherwise use fir 2 X 4's
