After getting a quote to replace our front doors and outer window panes for over $10,000, we decided to look into the option of glass inserts. We didn't realize initially that a pane could be inserted into the middle of our door as there was no pre-existing pane. But What a Pane assured us that this was no problem.
What a Pane came to visit the home and take measurements as the glass inserts would require to be custom made given the unusual height of the front door. We ordered the style we liked and the team came back to install the inserts within the time frame promised.
What a Pane has a great selection of rod iron inserts to choose from. We could not be happier with the end result (as shown with the pictures below).
This is one company that I think should actually be charging more for their service than they are. Given the amount of work to make the custom inserts and the time and effort involved to install them, this is worth every penny. The cost of installing the pane inserts was cheaper than the taxes alone if we had replaced the overall doors!
