Any good recommendations for a door for an ADU in SoCal?

Hi,

My friend is building an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) in their backyard in Los Angeles area and wondered what might be some good choices for a front door that is 3 ft-0 in wide, 6 ft-8 in high, and 1 3/4 inch thick? They will want to install a Schlage smart encode lock in it. It's mostly going to be for renters in a class B+/A neighborhood, so it needs to be nice looking but also last. Just wondering if there are some brands and/or suppliers that are known to provide good solid choices that would fill this need. Thanks in advance.

    @Bruce P. Hey Bruce, I believe you can contact few window and door suppliers for the door. I do have a referral in irwindale. He supplies our windows and doors for my development projects.

    The people already mentioned good options above. We laid out our ADU so that we have privacy from our main house. However, to have natural light, we bought the front door from Home Depot that has glass in it with a built in shade. That way we can get natural light when we want it, or privacy when we need it.
