Hi all,
We just moved into our house a month ago, and noticed the sun rises behind the house, so the front/entry way is always pretty dark and gloomy. We have noticed when the front doors are open, it does bring in a good bit more light...the doors are solid wood with fogged out windows toward the top (that dont bring much light in when closed), so we were thinking of getting a double storm door, so we can keep the wooden doors open during some of the day to allow light come through the storm doors and even slide down the top glass of the storm doors to get in some air when we want to. Do these type of double doors exist for entry way doors? I cant seem to find them anywhere. Id like the option of having it closed up (but completely see thru/glass) and the option to have top half (or all) open to a screen. If not this, any other ideas to bring more light into this area?

Any thoughts?

Thanks so much!
