   I'm having trouble picturing this arrangement, so this might not work, but have you considered  small spring tension rods, for at least the rectangular windows? I have often seen them for side light , with a rod at the top and bottom of the window. This would prevent the curtain from getting closed in the door, if I'm getting the right picture. There is a catalogue called Smith and something (sorry! try google search for curtains and Smith). It is full of window treatment options that might give you an idea to try and/or be a source for unusual curtain rods. I think that I'd also avoid screwing into a metal door. (We have screw holes in a metal door from an idea gone wrong). Good luck, and I'll pass on the catalogue name if I find it.

   I know you'd like to sew, but with the round window and the square windows, cloth coverings I do not think would look very nice.

   Plus, being a door the rods would have to be top and bottom to keep the cloth from whipping around when the door opened and shut.

   I once had a window that needed a light cover, but not to blacken out the light...just soften the setting sun from killing your eyes. I purchased some cellophane-like stuff at a hardware store that cut to the size of the window. It was perfect. Did you consider this?
