Airlock Begone

At sometime an exterior door had been added to the living room and an airlock built in front of it on the porch.  We wanted to remove the airlock and change the door into a large window which we had picked up from a house being remodeled.

The window was two double hung sections, bronze metal on the outside and wood on the inside.

We carefully removed the siding from the airlock so we could use it later (below the siding is maple flooring.)

Front wall of the airlock removed and the side wall is in process of being removed.

We will use this door in the kitchen porch as the exterior door.

The airlock, door and tile on the floor are gone.

We still need to remove the siding to the right.
