Vastu for Main Door

(For House / Flats / Plots / Office / Factories / Hotels )


Significance of Vastu for Main Door

People rarely appreciate how crucial the main door of house, flat or office is.

The main door functions as both a physical point of entry for residents and a channel for cosmic energy. The primary entrance is critical to achieving harmony between the house and the larger universe.

Vastu principles state that the placement of the main gate must be carefully studied in order to establish a harmonious relationship between the house and its cosmic surroundings.


How do I check the facing of the house?

The ‘facing’ of the house refers to the direction you face when leaving (coming out) the house.

Kindly Note:

You can use a compass to figure out the direction. Place the compass on the floor and watch which direction it points as you exit the house. This direction will be facing of the your house

If you do not have a traditional compass. You can use your smartphone. Most phones have a Compass App. If you don’t already have one, download a free App.

Now you may put your phone on the ground and observe what direction it shows in your compass App, This direction will be facing your residence. 

Always keep the compass or phone on the ground so that it is not tilted in any one direction. Note down the direction it is showing. For example:

  • While coming out of your home, you face North – then you have a North facing house
  • Similarly, if you face South while coming out of your home, then you have a South facing house

Can “house facing” directions and the “main door entrance” direction be different?

Yes. In most cases, the direction of the “house facing” and the “main door” directions are different.

According to Vastu, you should check the location of your main door from the center of the house (Bramhsthana).

North is the favorite direction for property buyers, whether buying a house, flat, office, or plot.

The North has more auspicious padas (entrances) than any other direction. This is one of the reasons why Vastu shastra considers the North to be particularly auspicious.

The north has 8 potential entries, much like the other directions. Three of them are lucky. Build your main entrance at N3 (Mukhya), N4 (Bhallat), or N5 (Soma). This lucky padas is illustrated by a red arrow in the image below.

North is the direction of water. You can also have a garden or open area in this direction. As a result, many individuals love this direction.Vastu Mandala - Vastu for Main Door Facing North

However, this region is ruled by “Diti”, Mother of asuras,. The Diti door never delivers positive results and might potentially endanger people.

Also, because the NE is the location of theVastu Purusha Mandala’s head, hence it is not a good entrance direction.

There is a famous myth. West is the direction of darkness. As a result, many Vastu experts recommend avoiding a home or apartment facing west.

However, the west direction is highlighted in Vastu for its function in providing stability, encouraging financial prosperity, and facilitating a sense of security and balance.

Actually, quite a few wealthy businessmen have houses facing south. The southern gateway is also home to the Kedarnath temple, Mahakaleshwar Jyotirling, and a large number of enterprises.

Consequently, you don’t have to be concerned. Just be careful to maintain the door in its correct position.

The shoe rack should therefore be kept to the “side of the door” rather than in front of it.

Instead of having an open shoe rack, choose a closed cabinet or cupboard.

The shoe rack can be placed anywhere other than from north to east. Maintaining this rack in the West or North West is good option

Name Plate Vastu

The nameplate will be the first thing a guest notices as they enter your home. Make sure your front door has a beautiful nameplate to attract success, wealth, and happiness.

Shape: The ideal nameplate is believed to be rectangular.

Material: If the door is toward the north or west of the house, the native should use a metal nameplate. Make use of a wooden nameplate if the door is facing any other direction. However, marble nameplate is fine for any direction

Name – Ensure that the nameplate shows the full name, not simply the surname. The first letter of the name must be capitalized.

Religious symbols –  like Sri, Om, and Swastik can also be included on the nameplate. It helps to bring prosperity and protects from negative energy.

If the nameplate deteriorates and the letters get damaged, please replace it. The nameplate should always be nice, clean, and in excellent condition.

If you choose, you can add a small light bulb above the nameplate to increase positive energy.

On the main door, two nameplates should never be kept together.
