1. A door with a window for a household appliance, the door comprising: a) an outer frame to house the window, the outer frame including walls which define a hollow space;b) a single tempered glass pane;c) an inner frame to further house the window, where said inner frame comprises an inner face and an outer face, a first gutter disposed on the outer face and proximate to the window, a silicon strip having a width ranging from approximately 0.5 cm to approximately 10 cm poured into the first gutter, the tempered glass pane placed over the silicon strip, a second gutter having grooves and disposed on the inner face, a periphery of the second gutter located proximate to an outer periphery of the inner frame, wherein said second gutter receives a first seal affixed to the second gutter by anchors in the grooves, the inner frame further comprising at least two pairs of assembly holes arranged to receive fastening means to form a joined assembly of the inner frame to the outer frame;d) at least one plate to support a safety latch, said plate being fastened over an edge of the inner face of the inner frame;e) at least one hinge fastened to a border of the assembly of the inner frame and the outer frame, wherein said border is opposite to the edge of the inner face of the inner frame; andf) a handle including hook-type fasteners received in the hollow space of the outer frame to provide an interference fit to fasten the handle through the walls which define the hollow space of the outer frame,wherein the single tempered glass pane and the silicon strip are placed between the outer frame and the inner frame, wherein the hook-type fasteners comprise a first group of fasteners being placed substantially in the same direction towards the door interior and a second group of fasteners being placed on a lower wall of the handle. 2. The door of claim 1, wherein the appliance comprises a household electric appliance, wherein the hinges comprise a first hinge part which latches to the border of the outer frame and inner frame assembly, and a second hinge part which in turn comprises a first hole and a second hole adjacent to one another, the first hole having a greater diameter than the second hole and through which a fastening means is received to couple said second hinge part to a cabinet of the household electric appliance, and further wherein the inner frame has at least one receptor cavity on each lateral side of the inner frame. 3. The door of claim 2, wherein the hinges and the inner frame allow bidirectional pivotal movement to the door. 4. The door of claim 1, wherein the appliance comprises a household electric appliance and further comprising a second plate fastened to the edge of the inner face of the inner frame. 5. A clothes dryer comprising a cabinet having the door of claim 1. 6. The door of claim 1, wherein the first and second groups of fasteners each comprises at least three hook-type fasteners, the fasteners of the second group being substantially opposed therebetween. 7. The door of claim 6, wherein a first fastener and a third fastener of the hook-type fasteners placed on the lower wall are substantially opposed to one another, and a second fastener of the hook-type fasteners placed on the lower wall is placed in a substantially outwardly direction relative to the door. 8. An assembly method for a door with a window for an appliance, the method comprising: a) providing an outer frame to house the window, the outer frame including walls which define a hollow space,b) providing a single tempered glass pane,c) providing an inner frame to further house the window, said inner frame having an inner face and an outer face, disposing on said outer face a first gutter located proximate to the window, disposing on said inner face a second gutter with grooves, and locating a periphery of the second gutter proximate to an outer periphery of the inner frame,d) pouring a silicon strip in plastic state, the silicon strip having a width ranging from approximately 0.5 cm to approximately 10 cm into the first gutter,e) placing on the silicon strip in plastic state the tempered glass pane and curing the silicon strip to create a seal between the tempered glass pane and the inner frame, wherein the single tempered glass pane and the silicon strip are arranged between the outer frame and the inner frame,f) housing and affixing a first seal to the second gutter by anchors in the grooves;g) passing a fastener through at least two pairs of assembly holes to form a joined assembly of the inner frame to the outer frame;h) fastening at least one plate arranged to support a safety latch on one edge of the inner face of the inner frame;i) fastening at least one hinge to a border of the assembly of the inner frame and the outer frame, said border being opposite to the edge of the inner face of the inner frame; andj) fastening a handle in the hollow space of the outer frame through the walls, said handle including a first group of hook-type fasteners being placed in the same direction towards the door interior and a second group of hook-type fasteners being placed on a lower wall of the handle. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein a speed for pouring the silicone strip ranges from about 135 mm/s to about 160 mm/s. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the speed for pouring the silicone strip ranges from about 145 mm/s to about 152 mm/s. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein a pressure for pouring the silicon strip ranges from about 84 psi to about 90 psi. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the pressure for pouring the silicon strip ranges from about 84 psi to about 87 psi. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein the curing for the silicon strip is performed at room temperature with a humidity ranging from about 40% to about 55%. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the humidity for the curing ranges from about 45% to about 52%. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the humidity for the curing ranges from about 48% to about 51%.
