    been in the glass buisness 30 + years of my life, have done literaly 100s maybe 1000s of these exact installs, with that said, you nailed it, step by step 100% perfect. nice work, great video.

    As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement ruclips.net/user/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!

    Love this ! Always remember to paint the top and bottom of any door (interior or exterior). Reason one is for moisture/humidity and reason two is to help form a barrier for termites. Raw door edges tend to draw moisture and cause warping or swelling.

    I've worked in a door shop for over two years now and one thing that will help in the future is to caulk around the glass. From what it looked like you got an ODL brand or sister brand and the seal between the door and the frame (the little black foam pad on the insert) isn't the best so just running a little bit of caulking around will help with that.

      Off topic I know but since there is no “jesus of Bethlehem”
      HERE is The REAL MESSIAH, Who they REALLY Crucified for the sins of man
      From the Dead Sea Scrolls Exodus 3 Scroll, "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote
      Paleo Hebrew Direct Translation
      Yad "Hand"
      He "Breath"
      Vav "Nail"
      He "Breath"
      YaH's Name:
      (Ya)d + (H)e, as YaH is what Moses called Him as well all throughout the Book of Isaiah and Psalms, "this is My Name for all generations" (Exodus 3)
      YaH The Creator:
      Yad He, (Hand Breath), as YaH's "Hand" Formed man from the dust of the Earth and His "Breath" made him a living being (Adam)
      YaH's Sacrifice of Crucifixion:
      Vav He (Nail Breath), the "Nail" through the "Hand", that whosoever shall call YaH Savior, His Breath brings forth life (Salvation)
      How YaH arrives:
      YaH arrives via the Tent of Meeting (Exodus 33:7:11), NOT through childbirth (Isaiah 45:10)
      Why they demanded YaH to be Crucified:
      YaH was Crucified according to Hebrew law (Deuteronomy 21), to be Hung on an Almond Tree for BLASPHEMY, as the Messiah claimed He was YaH.
      He was YaH
      Isaiah 42:8
      "I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.
      Isaiah 43:11
      I, I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.
      Isaiah 45:5
      I am YaH, and there is NONE ELSE

      Jesus Christ died for all of our sins. He died the death we all deserved. He was the perfect one who never sinned once, but he loved us so much he decided to die for us so our sins would be paid for and we can enter the Kingdom of Heaven before God the Father blamelessly. He is the living son of God who wants to know us and have a personal relationship with us. No matter what you have done no matter how far gone you think you are Jesus can and will save you. All you have to do is confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior. Believe that he died on the cross for your sins and had a bodily resurrection 3 days later. We cannot be saved by our works but by faith in Christ alone. Repent and turn to Christ. You will have joy, happiness, love, and peace beyond understanding.

      There's glass around the door already, adding glass to the door itself doesn't add any additional vulnerability. A good security system is probably already in place.

Maybe... haha! The list of tools is particularly kick ass. Your time to post it is much appreciated.

    I have a full view insert in my door, installed by Zabitat. These glass inserts are either double or triple pane (if decorative glass), 1” thick, and the glass is tempered. If people want to break into your home, they have better chance by breaking your regular windows than with this door glass. Zabitat has a large selection of inserts from a privacy level of 1, which is clear glass, to a level of privacy of 9, which means people can’t look inside. They also offer Severe Weather glass, for areas with tornadoes and hurricane winds. Their website is very educating.

    I’ve been contemplating inserting glass inserts in my double front doors since my front hallway is so dark. Thanks for the video and the links. I think I’m going to do this. Maybe I’ll hire someone to do the install, however. 🤔

    Love the DIY and production quality of these videos. Have you ever done a “how to” on how you plan out and film tour videos? Would love to see one.

    Nice job! Love the video! I’m going to try and convince my husband to do this with me! I’ve been trying to talk him into a new door with a window.

    Looks great! I think it'd look even sharper if the inside panes were also black on the outside!
