There are several meanings behind a red door.

In Feng Shui, a red front door means "welcome." Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophy in which the arrangement and color of objects in a room relates to the flow of energy. The front door is known as the "Mouth of Chi" where energy enters. If you believe in or follow Feng Shui, painting your front door red would create welcoming energy.

A red door means "welcome" in an old early American tradition. If a family had a red front door tired travelers traveling by horse and buggy would know that a home was a welcoming place to rest. They would be able to spend the night there.

A red door provides protection. In Biblical times, the Hebrew slaves were instructed to smear blood of a lamb on their front doors to protect their first born from the angel of death. In old Catholicism churches painted the doors of the church red to represent the blood of Christ. Passing through the door would mean that you were on holy ground. Some believe a red door protects the occupants from evil.

A red front door means mortgage-free. In Scotland, homeowners would paint their front door red to signify that they had paid off their mortgage.

How do you change pink paint to red paint?

red is a primary color so no colors make up red if that is what you mean Red is NOT a primary color of pigments. They used to think it was. But your color printer on your computer makes red by mixing magenta and yellow. You can do that with paint too. I wish schoolteachers would stop teaching the old color theory. It's wrong. The true primaries have been known for over 50 years, but too many people want the old primaries taught because "the masters" used them.
