Did the old japanese houses and temples have shoji screen on the outside aswell?

or where they just shoji screens inside that u could just poke ur finger through and hit brick wall behind it?...Did the old japanese houses and temples have shoji screen on the outside aswell?
No brick walls. They were all wood and paper construction. The doors were shoji style with paper covering and slid in tracks. They had exterior 'storm doors' that were all wood which were in sliding tracks so they could be closed and locked at night or when away.
