At this point, looks like we'll exchange two doors, one for the other.
Another door was found in the barn, which has a window, and the same handing
as the door coming out.

I'm still curious to learn. Even if I might not actually do the window
install.

The bigger deal is finding the metal frame. The terms in the industry
are "vision panel" and "half light". Anyone who deals in hollow metal
should have the kits or be able to get them. They do NOT normally
supply the glass so you are looking for 2 suppliers. I prefer the 2
piece metal kits, put the screws on the not locked side.

It makes a bit of difference what grade of door and more so what filler
is in the door. As others have said, many weapons will work.


Before you drag that heavy beast from the barn, check the hinge layout
and the strike height. There are no two door manufacturers that use the
same layout. If all the doors were bought at one time and are all
original you are probably good to go, but certainly check. If the
hinges won't make, you can go to 1/2 mortise or 1/2 surface hinges or
one of the newer continuous hinges. Continuous hinges are over $100.

Best of luck.
