Page 1 of 1 Catherine Hostetler - 1623 E Wayne From: Steve Szaday To: Hostetler, Catherine Date: 6/6/2013 3:30 PM Subject: 1623 E Wayne CC: Feasel, Elicia I met with Brian Barnes at his house at 1623 E Wayne to determine what could be done in regards to the replacement of his entry doors and his french doors at the front of his home. These doors both face to the south and have had little or no coverage from the elements. The french doors are rotted from underneath and have deteriorated at a rate differently and the doors no longer securely close nor fit properly. The front entry door has accents via trim and medallions that have been glued onto the surface that are now chipped and coming off. The description in the file mentioned raised panel door which is why I questioned the originality of the current door. After printing the pictures I took at the site, you pointed out the casement surrounding the doorway which entails leading lines that match those on the door itself. The door framing has shifted enough that the locks barely make contact when closed. The home owner expressed a desire to replace the french doors with visibly similar ones made out of modern more durable material that would offer more security. In regards to the front door he would like to replace his current door with a new door that had some windows to allow some natural light to enter the dark entryway. He would also like to have something pre -hung so that the overall doorway is more secure. I understand his concerns as neither doorway would take little more than a strong push to enter his house.I hope that a door that fits the appearance of the house is available.
