Door Stop/Locking

Does anyone know what this part is called? It is attached to the top of a doorway and stops and locks our doors. One is missing and one is broken (pictured). What are they called and where can I get them?

Glass Craft Front Entry Double Doors

Purchased around four months back and had installed by professional recommended by retailer.

Doors have iron work on outside with four obvious hinges (2 on left side; 2 on right side) of each door.

They're obviously there to use to swing open iron work to clean glass.

How do these open?

Why can't I post pics to clarify?

All in, doors cost $15k and I can't even clean them.

Installer wasn't sure either.

Anyone???

Help? Impossible to find a part…

My significant other bought this house in November last year. We knew the door knob was messed up but didn’t occur to us it was going to be so hard to fix.

This is a pre fab sun room, the issue is the circle hole is some style they don’t make anymore or something because everything I find is trying to use a square part. I just need this door to be able to lock. In a perfect world some kind of digital lock but… I’ll settle for working locking door !

Storm Door Replacement Question

Hi all -

I’m trying to replace a storm door on the side of my house. Believe it or not the measurements are about 29” by 73”. I can not find anything that size online. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or am I going to have to go with someone making a custom door?

Can’t get this door to open

This is my front door I pulled the door handle off but I can’t get this bolt to retract. It used to work when I’d spin it to the left but now nothing.

Is it true that if a door has a transom, you cannot replace it with a pre-hung set that does not include the transom?

I read that in this case, you can replace the door with a slab door, and it is very difficulty, requiring high precision to make everything fit together seamlessly.

Right now a pre-hung door costs $1500 more than a slab - with the EXACTLY same door. If the transom must be custom made - which I suspect to be the case, as I don't seem to see many standard sizes or shapes of the transoms, the cost would be significantly higher.

I'm going to hire a skilled carpenter for the job. Is slab door a good way to go? Did you have experience with using a slab door for replacement?

I'm attaching a picture of my door her. The home is 21 years old and the door frame is good.
