Has anyone had a whole door including sidelights put in

We are thinking it may be time for a new door. We would want to replace the sidelights next to it too. Has anyone done this? Does it come in one piece? Is Home Depot a good place to go for this?

one piece...never replace just a door slab...it will not seal properly and you will have nothing but problems
should come built in the frame.

I think this is what I was thinking. Please excuse my ignorance, but it does come in one piece then? So you get a door with the sidelights too? It comes all in one piece?

I had it done. It was all one peice. I had a window/door company put it in. It was $$$$ but it was also the kind I chose.

Ours was supposed to come pre-mulled, but HD screwed up, so it was mulled on-site.

we replaced ours - i think our door cost around $2500 including side lights -

i highly recommend getting a fiber glass door - there are some relly nice looking ones - and they usually qualify for the energy discount

other places to look are the show rooms at lumber stores - Florence has a bunch, so does Kleet

most handy man can install and just order from a lumber store - mattering on your door size you may take a while to come in - some we looked at 3-4 month lead time - that is why we had to go wood even though i wanted fiber glass
