The prior owners of my 1948 home removed the outside door in my
dining room and replaced the opening with glass block. I want to remove the
glass block and install an in-swinging french door. It is a fairly small door (32″)Can someone suggest a safe way to remove the glass block so I can re-install a new door and jamb ? Is there anything I should be looking out for, or tricks-of-the-trade I might use to make this a do-it-yourself job ?
