Replacing glass insert for entry door

Looking at replacing our current entry door glass. Right now it's just an older sheet of glass with a frame that makes it look like 9 panels. Based on what I'm measuring in comparison to what I've found online, it's a 22"x36" sheet with a frame.
Any recommendations on where to get replacements? I've considered removing the frame and getting one with a decorative glass piece, or maybe one of those window inserts that have blinds.

Why are you wanting to replace?
Probably much easier just to replace the door.
HD and Lowes may have glass replacement inserts.

The glass has a lot of razor scratches from when I painted over it poorly years ago and tried to fix it up. It's also a fine fiberglass door. If it's worth about the same to replace the door itself I can do that in the future and just do nothing now.

Call a glass shop and tell them you need a 22x36 insert. Itll be a new frame and glass. Frame should have screws on the inside of the house. Should be around $100 or so.

Years ago, my wife and I got a place to do custom glass inserts on our door. It isn't cheap but you get something you like. They will have set patterns you can choose from or help you create your own design. There were multiple places in LAfayette so I am sure there will be several in the Baton ROuge are that do it (I'm assuming Baton Rouge because you are probably stuck in traffic 
).
We did eventually replace the door (it was from 1981 when the house was built) with a fiberglass entry door and panels. Do not regret the custom inserts when we did that.
