A strange request: the Customer of the Day
We sell Andersen patio doors in single-door and double-door styles.

This guy and his wife were in there looking at the door, and falling in love with the locking system (it has lock bolts at the top, middle and bottom of the door), and talking to us about buying one. "But it has to be in black." (Which can't be done on an Andersen--they're vinyl-wrapped, and the wrapping would just curl up and fall off after a few days' exposure to the sun.)

It turns out that someone broke into their home through the front door and they were considering replacing the broken-through door with one of these.

Now let me ask you something: if you were trying to buy a door to replace one that someone had broken into, would you choose an all-glass door?

1. Maybe
If it was level 3 bullet resisting. Of course then each door would weigh about 500 pounds.
