Front Door Windows


 This was a fantastic little project. My wonderful neighbors approached me with an opportunity I simply could not refuse. They wanted 3 CRESTVIEW Door kit windows to be installed in their once plain old front door--actually it turned out to be a cool old Stanley metal / foam door. Nothing the old Jigsaw couldn't handle.


It was a challenge to get the cut just right. Lets just say layout went on, and on and on until EVERYTHING was aligned in harmony. The cutting went just fine--slow and steady with the patented Denny (Overkill)  Millner "Fan Cuts" used to great effect. This prevents the jig saw blade from binding and bending in the material when approaching your corners. 



I was very impressed with the product and the install went in very smooth. Good design, solid instructions written clearly and made in the USA (out of Austin, Texas). My only complaint was not enough dowell material was provided. But we overcame.


The home owners did a fabulous job painting and now the door not only glows on the outside, but the light coming inside really transforms the entry and adds so much warmth to the house.
