The Front Door Edit / No. 01 Alex & Carley
Lombard, Illinois

They knew the front needed work. They just had no idea where to start.

A mid-century modern on a quiet Chicagoland street. Gray brick, charcoal trim, and a front entry that hadn’t been touched in years. Their mail comes to the door, not the curb, so everything happens at the front door.

Fig. 1 Episode 01 · Alex & Carley, in full. Filmed on location. Run time 13:12.
The reveal

Same house.
Different welcome.

Nothing structural moved. Behr Cracked Pepper on the garage and trim, Behr Milkweed Pod on the door, new beds along the front. A locking wall mount replaced a worn-out one, a package box took the porch corner, and the numbers finally read from the street. Five jobs, one day, no permits.

Before After
Fig. 2 The same frame, before and after. Drag the handle, or use the arrow keys.
The plan

Five jobs, one day.

The schedule
Frequently asked
Which mailbox is in Episode 01?
The Locking Wall Mount Mailbox in Large, in black. It hangs flat beside the door, it locks, and it needs no post and no mounting plate.
Do I need a post with a wall mount mailbox?
No. A wall mount hangs on the wall beside your door, so there is no post and no surface plate. Only post mount mailboxes, locking or non-locking, need an In-Ground Post.
What color are the address numbers on this house?
Black, set on gray brick beside the door. Silver reads better on a dark surface, so if your siding or brick is dark, choose silver instead.
Can I get these in a color other than black?
Yes. Every piece in Episode 01 comes in a deep, evolving color library, so you can match the trim, the door, or the brick rather than defaulting to black.
Is the Package Box locking?
Yes. The Package Box locks, and couriers can drop a delivery in without a key. You open it with yours.
When does the next episode go live?
Roughly monthly. Episode 01 lands on a Tuesday; after that they settle onto the last Monday of the month. Episode 02 and Episode 03 are coming soon, and the series hub lists each one as it is dated.
