Front Door Makeover | Making a Glass door

What happens here

Using an impact driver, remove the screws securing the hinges to the door frame. With the screws removed, carefully lift the existing solid front door off its hinges and transport it to a suitable workspace, such as a garage or outdoor workbench. Also, remove all existing hardware from the door, such as the doorknob and lock, which will be replaced.

Goal: Detaching the front door and preparing it for modification.
