1/2 Inserts

At ALDA Doors, we offer a range of customizable exterior doors, including those with 1/2 inserts, designed to meet both aesthetic and functional needs. The 1/2 insert is a glass panel that covers the door’s upper half, allowing abundant natural light to brighten your entryway while maintaining privacy in the lower section. This insert type is ideal for homeowners who want a well-lit entrance without fully exposing the interior to the outside view.

The term “1/2 insert” comes from its design, where the glass covers exactly half the door’s height. This configuration balances light entry with privacy and security, making it a popular choice for many homes. The glass used can be clear, frosted, or decorative, depending on your preferences, and is typically double-glazed for added insulation and energy efficiency.

All our front doors are fully customizable to your desired insert size and shape.
