SMART ENTRYWAY
A smart entryway includes an entrance door assembly configured to allow users (e.g., residents) to enter and exit a first space (e.g., a residence) and a storage assembly configured to allow secondary users (e.g., deliverymen) in a second space (e.g., a porch) to store items for later retrieval by the users. A portion of the storage assembly may be optionally refrigerated or heated. A security assembly is provided between the entrance door assembly and the storage assembly. The security assembly includes an authentication device to authenticate users and secondary users and a locking device to unlock the storage assembly and the entrance door assembly upon authentication. The locking device is provided behind the authentication device and concealed from the second space. When a first door of the storage assembly accessible from the first space is opened, a second door of the storage assembly accessible from the second space is locked.
Modular closet door and hinge system
A closet assembly includes a fixed portion that is configured to be disposed at a closet opening and an operable door portion that is configured to move relative to the fixed portion between a closed position and an open position. A hinge assembly is configured to attach between the operable door portion and the structural opening, such that the operable door portion moves via the hinge assembly. The hinge assembly includes an upper base bracket and a lower base bracket that each have a plate portion and a cylindrical projection extending substantially orthogonal from a planar extent of the plate portion. The hinge assembly also includes a door bracket that has a vertical member extending between upper and lower horizontal members. The upper and lower horizontal members are pivotally coupled with the cylindrical projections of the respective upper and lower base brackets.
Pet Vestibule
A pet vestibule configured for being attached to a door and to swing open with the door. Vestibule provides a protected shelter area for pets and animals to come and go into a structure without the need for human assistance, while also inhibiting rain, snow, and other inclement weather from entering the structure through the pet door.

Delivery-Receiving Door
A delivery-receiving door is an apparatus that is used to collect deliveries and store them for storage and subsequent access. The apparatus includes an exterior door, a collapsible tube, a controller, a first access mechanism, and a second access mechanism. The exterior door is similar to a conventional entryway door, allowing selective hinged entry into a living space. The collapsible tube is mounted to the exterior door. This allows the collapsible tube to expand for containment of items. The controller is a computer that accepts electrical input signals related to the first access mechanism and the second access mechanism, and subsequently delivers electrical output signals. The first access mechanism allows for input of delivered packages and items into the collapsible tube, while the second access mechanism allows for removal of delivered packages and items from the collapsible tube.
Doors including customizable and removable storage
A modular insert useful for storing one or more objects, designed and configured to inset within a door having one or more cavities. The modular insert includes a frame having a plurality of walls and a top panel movably affixed to the frame or the door. Some of the walls may have apertures to facilitate securing the modular insert to an interior support structure of the door. Also provided is a door suitable for receiving one or more modular inserts, the door having one or more cavities to receive and support the modular inserts.
