Project Story
ProVia Front Door and Sidelight Conversion in Castro Valley, CA
AMG Doors & Windows transformed this Castro Valley home's original double-door entrance into a new ProVia single front door with two coordinated sidelites. The redesigned configuration creates a more balanced entry, introduces additional glass around the door, and gives the front of the home a completely updated appearance.
1. Project Overview
The service, brand, and reason for replacement
AMG Doors & Windows transformed this Castro Valley home's original double-door entrance into a new ProVia single front door with two coordinated sidelites. The redesigned configuration creates a more balanced entry, introduces additional glass around the door, and gives the front of the home a completely updated appearance.
2. Homeowner Pain Points
What the homeowner was dealing with
The home originally had two front entry doors filling the main opening. While the double-door configuration created a wide entrance, the homeowner selected a different layout for the replacement project. The new design needed to make effective use of the existing opening while creating a clearly defined central front door and maintaining visual width through matching sidelites.
3. AMG Solution
What AMG Doors & Windows installed
AMG Doors & Windows replaced the original double doors with a ProVia entry system featuring one central front door and two coordinated sidelites. The redesigned layout establishes the front door as the visual center of the entrance while the sidelites fill the remaining opening on both sides. This preserves the scale of the original entry while creating a more detailed and balanced architectural arrangement.

What We Installed
What AMG Doors & Windows installed
For this Castro Valley home, AMG installed a complete ProVia front entry system — one central front door flanked by two coordinated sidelites — using the existing double-door opening.
4. Installation Details
How AMG installed this front door
The original pair of double entry doors was removed and the opening was prepared for a new configuration. AMG installed a ProVia front entry system consisting of one central single front door and two coordinated sidelites filling the remaining opening on either side.
5. Final Result
The improvement for the homeowner
The completed ProVia entry gives the home a new architectural focal point. Replacing the original double doors with a central door and two sidelites creates a more balanced arrangement across the full entrance, provides a clear visual distinction between the operating front door and the surrounding glass elements, and updates the home's curb appeal while preserving the substantial scale of the original entry opening.
Why we recommended this product:
The completed project demonstrates how an existing double-door entrance can be redesigned rather than simply replaced with another pair of doors. The new proportions create a strong visual center while the matched sidelites help the entry appear intentional and coordinated rather than leaving unused space around the new door.
