I just replaced a wooden door with "full glass" that leads onto a second floor deck. I used a fiberglass unit this time. The insulated glass had fogged and the wood was starting to rot on the old one. I ordered all these upper floor doors as out-swing when I built the house because, well, I wanted them that way. I think all the door shop did on those doors was install the threshold reversed, as the glazing strips were outside and the hinges were for shit. That particular door takes a lot of sun and used to take rain as well before I put up a canvas awning.

The new door was heavy as hell, but next time my guys say they can't hang a door by themselves I can easily call bullshit. There is about 3 hrs work for one man and 5 minutes for two dumb guys. One smart guy can do the work of two dumb guys in about 8 minutes, without straining himself.

The new door leaf is a little bit smaller than the wooden one, so I have to get a bottom sweep and shim out the hinges to close the gaps.
