It gave him second degree burns on two of his fingers. I called a repairman out to check it out. He pretty much told me that it shouldn't get that hot to cause a burn. Is it normal for an oven door to get that hot? Should the door or insulation be replaced?

These may be blocked, or you may have a bad door seal. If a bad seal and your electronic control is near the top of the door, get it fixed real soon as it will eventually destroy the control.
