hey all,

I’ve got a rear garden level kitchen, and I’m interested in taking the large window that faces the yard and turning it into a door (maybe an insulated french double door.) This would entail removing the window and knocking out the back wall below it, and installing a doorframe and door. Are there any structural issues I should consider/worry about? And anyone have a rough guess what a job like that might cost? It would basically provide garden access directly off the kitchen rather through the narrow side hall.
