The Scavenger is a sucker for anything Craftsman, and when we can finally afford that funky bungalow upstate, we are SO getting a front door like this 20's Pine Entrance door. We think it's a far better solution than those assembly line doors from home improvement stores, and much more fiscally responsible than anything custom. -MM

Except for when the winter wind comes blowing through. I have 2 beautiful doors like that on my house, nearly all glass--love the light, hate the freeze.
Simpson Doors makes new Craftsman doors similar to that. They are reasonably priced, come in several woods, and are well-made. I replaced all the doors in my house with their Shaker ones.
The old glass (rippled and soft) in vintage doors is what you can't duplicate. But the glazing issue is correct. Those old doors don't provide much insulation.
