Create an Appealing Entrance

The entrance to your home is one of the most important parts of your mobile home, yet often neglected. When a guest approaches, your entrance sets the tone for the rest of your home.

A new front door can easily be fitted on the old frame, or you could even give your door a new finish or stain. Perhaps the door handle or hinges have seen better days. Replace these minor parts and you are well on your way to a beautiful transformation. You can take it all a step further by cleaning up around the entrance, perhaps painting the front of your home and even adding an awning above your front door. Add some potted plants for color and that touch of nature too.
