I decided to do a little more work on the door, but first my wife and I made a trip to the door and window store to have a look. Nothing like going out on Super Bowl Sunday to shop! Here is a nice Milgard vinyl door on display. You don't see this brand much back east in New England where I grew up, but lots of homes in the west have Milgard installed. It is considered one of the better quality vinyl door and window manufacturers. Vinyl doors are not as rigid as wood or wood clad doors like Andersen or Marvin, but for a door that is 6 feet wide like ours it should work. They are usually less expensive too, which helps the budget!
When breaking out the stucco, use a medium sized hammer and use short quick hammer blows. The Estwing steel hammers work well because they damp less vibration which sends more energy into the stucco, breaking it up faster! Lots of hammer blows means increase risk of tendinitis, so stock up on Advil!
