A: The stationary door latches to the top of the frame so when you close the operating door if is held in place. But you can open the operating door, then unlatch the stationary door and open it as well, therefore creating a two door wide opening. They work just like your exterior doors do!

A: Yes - a clear large opening. The door frame can be mounted either way to put the dead side on the left or right. The dead side is latched with 2 pins (requires drilling into the threshold and header). With the live side open and the dead side unlatched and open, the only obstruction remaining is the perimeter frame, which in most cases is larger than the actual door opening. .

A: I wonder if the picture is wrong. The doors I bought were opposite of what your picture shows, provided you are on the outside looking in. Which would resolve your issue.

A: Hello George,
Let's say you're outside facing the door. If the sliding door handle is on the left, then yes, it can be switched. That's the way my door is. I love this security door as it also provides privacy and safety during hurricanes. I'm looking forward to buy a smaller one for the garage/backyard door...
Good luck!

A: If the sign is all in one piece , you should be able to connect it to the door with no real trouble. Either wire it through the screening or use self-tapping screws to permanently affix it to the metalwork.

Answer This Question
A: Thank you for your interest in our Arcada Surface Mount Double Door. The Arcada double door configuration comes with an expanded metal screen which is welded in place and cannot be removed. It does not have the option for glass. We do not have security doors in a 72 x 80 configuration that have glass. We do however have a single door that comes with a glass and screen option and and looks much like the Arcada. It is called the Arbor and can be seen on homedepot.com using internet id #203080846. This door cannot be used for a double door configuration. I hope this information is helpful for you.
