Keypad and remote control to my GDO have been operating fine. Then today when I tried to close my GDO with my remote it would not work. I tried the one in my wife's car and it would not close the door either. So, I got out and attempted to use the remote pad and it would not operate. Both were purchased about a year and half ago and installed at the same time. What could the problem be that would stop them from opening my GDO?

Thanks everyone! You all were very helpful in thinking through how the door will look with the other elements of the house. I have the same gothic style grille in several dormer windows above as well as some other decorative elements so I think that the solid door will best pull all of those pieces together. Also, I really want the transom to stand out and not blend in with the door below. I must say...I was definitely leaning the other way as I think the second door is beautiful but your input helped me visualize how it will look when combined with the windows, etc. Thanks again! Carsonheim - I'm getting it from a building supply company but I'm not sure who their supplier is. The woman has been great. She has called several supplies and gotten quotes for me in various wood species and other options. I think I'll be very pleased with the door assuming it is what she's requested. I'm waiting on confirmation on some of the details but it is very reasonably price...at least compared to the initial quote I got for the same door.

Kolbe wins! A couple different window experts (the ones who told me to buy Marvin windows, no less) said Kolbe door, so that's that. Thanks, guys!

Post 2. Please help me organize my living room. There are too many doors going in and out of it. I have a sectional that is semi U shape that measures 9x7x13 feet. Door #1 opens right into the center of the living. I'm just worried that placing my sectional near that door will make it awkward with the limited space. Our house is located on the corner and both doors have porches. Its hard to choose which one is the main entrance. Also, can I have any space for a small entry way??? please see pics.
