   What's the thickness of the doors. Commercial steel entry door suppliers have glazing frame kits. See if any stock sizes come close. Those I've used are to sandwich a 1-3/4" door. M/F frames slide together and fastened to themselves with counter sunk screws from the inside. Applied with a good grade of sealant, they are water tite.

   *Eureka!These frames can be ordered in any size using 2" increments.They can be ordered to 1 3/8" spec but that's 4 weeks and a 50% upcharge. I'll work with the 1 3/4" stock size!Price about $150 per frame but since we can go to a 60" frame (or more) we drop to two windows in the 14 foot door. Cal - You Da Man!Peter

   *Glad to be of help. One more thing, check w/glass supplier so it don't break the first time you raise that door. There's always something else to think about.

   Hello
   I need to find windows for a steel garage door. Dimension is 16 x 48.
   These used to be available but now discontinued. Need the frames at least or complete units - need 5 of them.
   Any leads appreciated.
   I could set to buiilding frames from wood but would prefer aluminum or the snap frame plastic units so trying all sources first!
   I am working with a garage door shop here in Denver for my doors but they're stumped on these windows.
   Thanks
   Peter
