Probably not if the door is white pine and the opening is rectangular.   It
becomes a lot more involved if the door is Mahogany and the opening is oval,
like the one I've been dealing with.

It's a given that the center of the door will be about an inch thick, or
more.  And when the exterior stop is 1/2" and the interior stop is also
1/2",  it doesn't leave much room for glass.  ;>)
