A grand entrance, including decorative doorglass with coordinating sidelights and transoms, is not only a great way to bring more natural light into the home but also personalizes and distinguishes one home from another. In one research study, 90 percent of homeowners surveyed agreed that a front entry with decorative glass added value to the curb appeal of the home.

You want doors that let in plenty of natural light, but want to preserve your privacy as well. Integral door treatments provide the privacy and protection you're looking for, along with a few other added benefits, such as energy efficiency, safety and convenience.

As you've visited communities scouting out ideas for your new home, you're bound to have seen stylish entryways. You know the ones. They have full view doors and two sidelights, maybe even a transom - all filled with decorative doorglass. Why settle for a plain entryway, when you can personalize and make a statement?
