Burgundy red to purple if you want bold.
I like a dark terra cotta red on a grey house. door and window trim white or off white. really mkes the door “pop”.
An off white or linen color. Or a light blue.

Red. A rich deep red with lots of brass: door handle, kickplate, big brass knocker, brass mail slot. Full glass storm door with the frame painted the same red to protect the door but not take away from its beauty.
Many Victorian houses had red doors. It meant God dwelled within. Many Lutheran and Episcopalian churches also paint their doors red for the same reason.
