This couple, Dan and Kathy, were referred to me by a Hammond Lumber associate with a couple different jobs in mind. One was installing an exterior door they had chosen ahead of time and the other was to have installed a deadbolt lock into a different exterior door. Both jobs went very well and the couple was pleased enough with the results to ask for my business cards to handout.
Here is the door supplied by Hammond Lumber. It is a 2/8 6/8, half glass panel, left hand in-swing, frame saver exterior door. 
The screws go behind the weatherstrip!
The red lines in the above right photo represent the coil stock aluminum pieces that I bent around the brick molding that cased the new door.
Along with installing one exterior door, I was asked to install a deadbolt lock mechanism into this couple's other exterior door. I picked up a Dewalt brand lock-jig that made the install of the deadbolt a breeze. Just to be sure I read the lock for the specs on the call out of the hole and distance from the door edge it needed to be. In this case the distance needed to be 2-3/8" inches and that was found on the striker mechanism which is seen below. 
Nice Work Jon !!
