Well, be that as it may... That is not the question now...

The question is whether there are people here who have installed old wooden doors, what the experiences are, and whether it is possible to open the door via "Summer".

The glass of the door can be replaced. It is even possible to "double up" the wood to increase the insulation value. The insulation value should not be a problem there, although the renovation of a wooden door by a carpenter also costs money, and the price difference to a new door then is not really there anymore.

For the locks, there are renovation locks, e.g. from Fuhr, which are very good. I have a motor lock from this manufacturer with a fingerprint scanner and opening via remote control. However, the carpenter has to mill the appropriate holes for this, which also costs money.

By the way, as a tip: cheap and technically absolutely good high-quality doors are most easily obtained as display models/stock doors. I recommend, for example, 1001Tür or Suedesign (that's where I got mine). But other manufacturers also have a "bargain bin" or "stock doors" section. They are then "only" standard sizes, but often also with side panels, and standard usually fits in new buildings.
