10. The door of claim 8 , further comprising at least one second strip of the double-sided adhesive tape adhering the impact side trim to the impact side panel, and at least one third strip of the double-sided adhesive tape adhering the secure side trim to the secure side panel.

11. The door of claim 1 , further comprising at least one bead of the glazing material forming a seal between an inner edge of the impact side trim opening and the pane.

12. The door of claim 8 , wherein the secure side outer layer further comprises an anti-spall film formed on the glass layer of the secure side outer layer, and wherein the at least one bead of glazing material is adhered to the anti-spall film.

13. The door of claim 1 , wherein the door body further comprises a bracket assembly including a plurality of brackets;

wherein each bracket comprises a base portion, a first flange extending from the base portion by a first distance, and a second flange extending from the base portion by a second distance greater than the first distance;

wherein the first flanges are coupled to the impact side door panel and at least partially surround the impact side panel opening; and

wherein the second flanges are coupled to the secure side door panel and at least partially surround the secure side panel opening.

14. The door of claim 13 , wherein the secure side outer layer is adhered to the second flanges.

15. The door of claim 13 , wherein the bracket assembly further comprises a plurality of slots, wherein each of the slots is formed in one of the base portions, and wherein a corresponding one of the fasteners extends through each of the slots.

16. The door of claim 1 , wherein the pane area is less than the impact side panel opening area.

17. A method, comprising:

preparing a door body including a first door panel, a second door panel, and an internal cavity formed between the first door panel and the second door panel, wherein the first door panel includes a first panel opening having a first panel opening area, wherein the second panel includes a second panel having a second panel opening area greater than the first panel opening area, and wherein the second panel opening is aligned with the first panel opening;

preparing a light assembly, wherein preparing the light assembly includes:

preparing a first trim including a first trim opening having a first trim opening area corresponding to the first panel opening area;
