Fact: In most cases the colour red serves as an enhancer, and by putting it randomly by or on the door all you would do is enhance any energy that is in that area.

Statistically speaking, less than one in ten houses will benefit from having the fire element located at the entrance. More likely, if a household is experiencing problems, there is a good chance that the door is located in an area that already has negative energy. Adding red is only going to increase this problem, not take it away. So, do not paint the door red unless so advised by an experienced feng shui consultant.
