I have an old house with low ceilings which means that the exterior door frames are non-standard. I want an exterior combination door and have had to cut down the next larger standard door to fit. This means I cut through the dowels holding the door together and then have to reinforce the corners with steel angles.
My wife wants a door with a large, open, glass area; the bigger then better without and mullons, etc. so that we can see the old-fashioned inside door.
Glass is heavy so what dimensions would make sense for the side pieces? Also would mortise and tenon joints be the strongest rather than doweled?

Larson has several models they will make in custom sizes. I just got a full view of theirs that was only 6'2"
