I've been trying to decide what to do with my blah front door that is half glass but even replacing the half glass with a fancy glass insert is $500 plus labor. But that's big box price for you.Martihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559847090671071342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592342156309750688.post-78977247941196797022012-12-29T06:23:28.564-08:002012-12-29T06:23:28.564-08:00Thrilled to find this.

I have a full-glass front door (just like this but without the panes) that is unimpressive and I've been looking for a new door, but can't find any that I like because I don't want to lose the light that comes in. Seeing this, I'm going to add panes and paint the door.

Then I saw where they do glass door inserts for fiberglass and steel doors. I have a fan shape window at the top with brass/gold in the glass. I prefer to have a small rectangle window instead of the fan shape and want the iron color instead of the gold. The guy said he couldn't change the fan shape because everytime he has tried it he messed it up. So I asked for a price to simply replace the window for the iron look verses the gold and it was 200.00 dollars! I had just about given up hope when I saw this post! Thank you, thank you because now I will research this process further with a window and door store and I may find a better price and solution to my problem.
