How to make a door with a window The simply trick to make doors with glass is that you have to make two doors, one for the frame and one for the glass / gate. So now we get started. First make a brush at the place the door should be and give it a door texture with a window. In the example I have taken the fifties_dr5 texture.  Then you have to carve out the black part and put in a brush with a glass texture  Now make the frame to a func_door  Give it the following keys at the entity inspector:  Then select the window and make a func_door out of it, too.  Give it the following keys:  The rendermode and renderamt key is important to make the glass transparent. The lip of -36 tells the program that the window is at the same position when the door is open, as the picture shows. Position 1 is when the door is open and position 2 is when it's closed.  IMPORTANT: The two doors must have the same angle, target, speed and wait value!!!
Two ways to open that door
There are two ways to open the two doors at the same time. The first way is that you trigger the door with a button. Make a brush and make it a func_button. Then give it following keys:  The key target shows the target of the button, the key wait shows the time after which the button is available again and the key spawnflags = 1 says that the button shouldn't move.  The second way to open it, is to trigger it with a trigger_multiple. Simply make this trigger in front of the door so when the player moves at it will be activated. Then give it the following keys:  The keys are mostly the same as by the func_button, only the key spawnflags is different. The value 256 here only says that the trigger is activated by touching.
