What color is Behr Rusty Gate?

Behr Rusty Gate M200-7 is a deep, earthy red with brown undertones, similar to weathered iron touched by orange rust. Its depth makes it read more grounded than bright, especially on a full wall or a front door. In strong daylight, the red notes come forward, while north-facing rooms may pull out its darker, almost oxblood-brown side. It suits a dining room, study, mudroom cabinetry, or exterior shutters where a substantial color feels appropriate. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, walnut, charcoal stone, and muted olive green for a finish that feels collected rather than overly rustic.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 19.12%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
