At a minimum, look for the following:
Each door should be built one at a time to your requirements and not limited to a couple of selections for door element dimensions, materials, build techniques, or finishes. Your door should be dimensionally appropriate and aesthetically pleasing for your door opening size and your home while choosing dimensions for all door elements; including kickboard height, stile width, rail width, muntins, window size, and arch radius.
