[Vastu dos and don’ts for the main door]
Always have a bright light at the entrance but avoid red lights. The main door should be well-lit in the evening.
Never place a mirror opposite the main door.
Decorate the entrance with green plants, if there is space.
The main door should open at 90 degrees, without any obstacles in the way.
Ensure that the hinges are oiled regularly and door accessories are polished. There should not be any broken or chipped wood, or missing screws at the entrance. Extra nails must be removed.
Always put up a name plate. A metal name plate is recommended, if the door is in the north or west direction. Use a wooden name plate, if the door is in the south or east direction.
The main door should always have a threshold, (marble or wood), as it is believed that it absorbs negative vibes and allows only positive energy to pass through. Decorate the main door with divine symbols like, Om, swastika, cross, etc., and put rangolis on the floor, as they are considered auspicious and invite good fortune.
