The Seaport Windows and Doors team recently completed an impressive custom entry door installation in Huntington Beach, CA. This project featured a 36” craftsman-style entry door complemented by two sidelites—one operable and one fixed. This design offers the functionality of a double-door entry with a fresh, modern look. The new door system features: A ¾ lite craftsman-style entry door with SDL bars and a bottom raised panel. Full-lite sidelites with acid-etched glass for privacy and light transmission. This low maintenance glass resists fingerprints and smudges, adding both function and aesthetic appeal. A composite jamb, bronze sill with adjustable riser, new interior casing, a floor transition piece, and Emtek hardware. A beautiful stain finish to complete the look.

Privacy Without Sacrificing Light 

Frosted glass offers an ideal solution for homeowners who want privacy but don’t want to block natural light. The 3/4 lite frosted glass on this door ensures that the entryway remains bright and welcoming during the day while obscuring views from the outside. This feature enhances the home’s curb appeal and contributes to a more energy-efficient and naturally lit interior space.

The Added Benefit of Operable Sidelites

Including sidelites on both sides of the door adds to the overall charm and functionality of the entryway. One of the sidelites in this project is operable, providing additional ventilation and flexibility when needed. This unique feature allows fresh air to flow into the home, especially during warm Huntington Beach afternoons, and it widens the entryway when open. It’s a thoughtful addition that combines style with practicality, enhancing the overall entryway experience.
