Following. OP, let us know what you wind up doing. Our front door needs to be replaced and not thrilled with the options.

They have worked with landmark before. You can for example have a triple pane transom window that looks like double hung from the outside, where the top part is fixed and the lower half is a tilt&turn

@augustiner thanks for this referral! I am working on a landmark apartment combination and we need a few doors and windows. Will check them out

Do you mean in the traditional style with modern enhancements? Like double pane and built in weather seal and perhaps insulated panels?
Someone is doing this in this city and i know this because a decade ago someone contacted me to make doors. I proposed run of the mill traditional doors. They were not happy with what i proposed and found someone who made a custom traditional looking modern insulated unit and it really looks the part.
