A modern front door with sidelights and a transom can brighten an entryway and create a more expansive look. Of the listed products, the mahogany prehung door is the closest match because it includes sidelights; the black steel door offers a modern privacy-glass style but has no listed sidelights or transom. The other three selections are privacy films for existing glass, not doors. No product in this selection is listed with a transom, so confirm the full door configuration before ordering.

Mahogany Door With Sidelights
This Door Major Store model is the closest listed match for a buyer specifically seeking a front door with sidelights. It is described as a 36-by-80-inch, prehung and prefinished mahogany door with two 12-inch sidelights, a six-lite design, and a dark walnut finish. The wood construction and glazing suit an entry where natural light and a traditional material are priorities.
Best for: Homeowners looking for a wood entry door with sidelights already included. Choose this if the listed right-hand configuration and overall dimensions match the opening. Limitation: A transom is not mentioned, and the listing describes a dark walnut finish rather than a range of finishes.
Modern Pinnacle Black Steel Door
The Modern Pinnacle is a 36-by-80-inch prehung exterior door described as galvanized steel, prefinished black, and right-hand inswing. Its five aligned horizontal frosted glass panels provide a clean, contemporary appearance while allowing light through and limiting visibility, according to the product features.
Best for: Buyers who prioritize modern lines and privacy glass over a complete sidelights-and-transom assembly. The listed frosted panels make it a better choice when privacy matters at the door itself. Limitation: Sidelights and a transom are not listed as included, so this is not a direct match for a complete glazed entry system.
Diamond Privacy Film, 35.4-Inch Width
This bofeifs static-cling film is a window treatment rather than a door. The 35.4-by-118.1-inch roll has a frosted diamond pattern intended to obscure views while letting natural light through. The feature list also claims 99% UV protection, heat blocking, and glare reduction. It is described as water-activated, repositionable, reusable, and removable without adhesive residue.
Best for: Buyers who already have wide sidelights or other entry glass and want added privacy without replacing the door. Limitation: Measure the glass first; the film does not add a transom or change the door assembly.
Diamond Privacy Film, 29.5-Inch Width
This 29.5-by-118.1-inch version has the same listed diamond design and static-cling installation approach as the other bofeifs films. The frosted surface is intended to preserve incoming light while obscuring visibility. The product description recommends measuring in advance and choosing enough material to avoid piecing sections together.
Best for: Entry glass that needs a medium-width film roll. Choose it by comparing its width with the actual glass panel, not the full door opening. Limitation: It is an accessory for existing glass, not a front door, sidelight, or transom.
Diamond Privacy Film, 17.5-Inch Width
The 17.5-by-118.1-inch film is the narrowest listed size and shares the static-cling diamond pattern, light-filtering privacy, and removal-without-adhesive features. It can be considered for narrow existing sidelights when the measured glass width suits the roll.
Best for: Narrow glass panels where a wider roll could create more trimming waste. Limitation: Confirm coverage dimensions before buying; a narrow roll may require multiple pieces for wider glass, which the listing advises avoiding when possible.
Buying Guide: How To Choose A Door With Sidelights And Transom
Do you need the door, sidelights, and transom together?
Check whether the listing includes the complete assembly or only the door slab and frame. A sidelight is a vertical glass panel beside the door; a transom is a window above it. In this selection, only the mahogany product explicitly lists sidelights, and none lists a transom. Ask the seller to confirm the exact included components before planning installation.
What should you measure?
Measure the rough opening and verify the door width, height, frame, and configuration against the product details. Also confirm handing and swing direction. For privacy film, measure each glass panel separately and compare its dimensions with the roll width and length. Do not assume the door’s nominal size includes sidelights or a transom.
Which material and glass style fit your priorities?
Mahogany offers a wood appearance and a dark walnut finish in the listed model. The steel option emphasizes a black modern look and frosted horizontal glass. Compare the desired appearance, daylight, and privacy level. Product descriptions do not establish that these doors are interchangeable or suitable for every opening.
When is privacy film a better choice?
Film may suit an entry that already has glass and needs more visual screening without replacing the door. Static-cling installation is described as water-activated and repositionable, but careful sizing and smooth application matter. Film is not a substitute for a door assembly or a transom.
