We want to replace our existing front door and side-light. Any recommendations on where to purchase a good one and someone to install it?

I don't have a specific company, but I would buy the door from a door and window company and have them install it. Installing a door correctly is not easy, and not something I would want a typical handyman or jack-of-all-trades guy to do.

I agree, ours was not installed properly and undue pressure is placed on the upper hinge pin causing it to squeak and even bend. This condition is not corrected with any type of lubrication. The entire door needs to be removed and rehung properly. Not a handyman type task.

Whomever you buy from should also be the installer, and make sure it and the install meets the current building code (hurricane force winds, etc.), not a handyman type project.

We just requested two quotes to add a glass insert to our existing door or just replace it (we are considering the options).. We called Perry's EntryPoint.

You should take out one of the hinge screws that are closest to the center of the jamb and run a long screw with the same head into the stud that is behind the jamb. Maybe 2-1/2” screw. Also hinges can be replaced easily

To answer your question, Thermatru would be the door manufacturer of choice. They have a online website where you can design your own door and sidelights configuration and then take it to a local Thermatru dealer and get a quote and order it. Try Romac first.
Therma tru is the nation's leading door manufacturer.

There website is Thermatru.com

We had them cut out our solid door and install full length designer glass and matching side light, love it. About 1600.00.
