We have iron double doors and they ARE heavy. They are very well balanced though and open and close like "butterrrr". My toddler grandchildren have no problem moving them once they are open. Price these doors before you fall in love with either idea. Our door was reasonable (4K +) but they can run much higher. Your hardware for these doors is not inexpensive either, and if you have the requirements that Renovator spoke of for your area of not being able to leave one side latched- a double may not be worth the security hassles. Our double door is inside a security gated courtyard so we often leave it open in nice weather when kiddos are not around.

New idea: move the door all the way to the right, and place one large 24” side Light on the side... then we have plenty of clearance. A 24”’side light is pretty wide....

People have storm doors because, they open doors and pull down the screen for air. A storm door has a security lock on it, for safety. Phantom screens are wrecked by children and pets go right through them and can escape your property and end lost or worse. I personally, would never ever be without storm doors on my house. I have very nice wood doors, and they are original to the house and still in excellent condition because they were protected with storm doors.

42” wide 8 ft tall. Mahogany Wood. I don’t think we paid much more for this door than a fiberglass door with sidelights. I wanted a door that visitors couldn’t see through. I had my builder put in a peephole. So far so good. https://residential.masonite.com/product-overview/exterior-doors/wood-door-collections/torrefied-wood-doors/
