Springs are balanced to the door, the opener is calibrated, and decorative hardware can be added for extra traditional character.

Short panel vs long panel
Short panels create a busier, more detailed look that suits smaller doors and traditional homes. Long panels give a cleaner, more expansive feel that works well on double-wide doors.
There is no functional difference; it is purely aesthetic. Your pro can show examples of each on similar homes.
Another detail worth deciding early is window placement. Top-section windows are standard, but some homeowners prefer a clean, windowless look for maximum privacy and a lower price. Decorative hardware, hinges and handles that suggest carriage-house styling, can also be added to raised-panel doors later, so you are not locked into every choice on day one.
