ok, i guess i didn't make myselg clear. i already have a new door and the framed glass for the sideof the door. what i need now is just the panel itself, with a window hole in it already, or able to cut a 4ft window hole in it without screwing up the pattern on the panel. see, i can use someones old pc and redo it. i guess fiberglass or steele would work.

The task sounds somewhat ambitious. I`m also wondering about the numbers. If you`re looking for panel only, one would have to assume you have an exsisting side lite. Why not modify exsisting panel? If what you say is true(13X80 panel) you will quit probably have some installation issues. Unless you have more than 13 inches inside the jambs, the "window" will lap into the rabbits. There won`t be any room for finish trim. How thick is this "window"? Keep in mind the panel is probably an inch and three quarters thick. Also the glass height sounds little tall. If the panel has an embosed panel at the bottom, "window" may intrude on it. You may have to get what is called a flush panel. If I haven`t detered you from your task, check with local door distributors. They will most likely have what you seek. Yellow Pages.

If you want an insulated window you can order custom made from a buidling supply. If single pane (1/4") will do build a frame with a 12" x 48" rough opening, then sandwich the glass between wood trim.

TYPICALLY A SIDE LITE REFERS TO THE WINDOW NEXT TO THE DOOR... BUT, IF IT IS IN THE DOOR, STEEL DOOR, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO FIND THE/ OR A MANUFACTURER OF THAT TYPE OF DOOR, WHO IS PUTTING THAT SIZE OF GLASS IN HIS PRODUCTS. OTHERWISE REPLACE THE DOOR, IT WILL BE, CHEAPER & EASIER, CONSIDERED TIME & ENERGY TO DO IT THE OTHER WAY!
