To install the storm door, you must verify that the opening width, height and mounting surface
are suitable size to properly install into the opening.
1. Measure the width at the top (W1), middle (W2), and bottom (W3) of the opening (see Figure 1).
Measure from the inside of the exterior trim. Utilizing the narrowest width, reference chart below.
2. Measure the height at the left and right of the opening, from the bottom of the exterior trim at the
top of opening down to the sill at the bottom of opening. Reference chart for height compliance.
Nominal Storm Door Widths*Opening Widths Opening Heights
36"x 80"35 ⁄" – 36 ⁄" 80" (80" – 80 ⁄")
34"x 80"33 ⁄" – 34 ⁄" 80" (80" – 80 ⁄")
32"x 80"31 ⁄" – 32 ⁄" 80" (80" – 80 ⁄")
30"x 80"29 ⁄" – 30 ⁄" 80" (80" – 80 ⁄")
3. Make sure that the exterior trim meets the mounting surface requirements. The assembly needs
a minimum of ¾" at surface on exterior trim face, 1" minimum depth of mounting surface (see
Figure 2). A minimum depth of 3 ⁄ inches for storm door handle clearance. (see Figure 3).
• ¾" minimum at surface on exterior trim face (see Figure 2)
• 1" minimum depth of mounting surface (see Figure 2)
• minimum depth of 3 ⁄ inches for storm door handle clearance (see Figure 3)
If your opening does not t within these dimensions, call the Solution Center at 1-800-933-3626,
as there may be a solution that will work for your opening. .
* Nominal storm doors sizes are listed. The actual storm door frame width and height will be less.
Example: A nominal size of 36” x 80” may have an actual storm door frame size of 35 ⁄” x 79 ⁄”.

Verify that the exterior brickmould, trim board or casing (exterior trim) is rmly attached to the opening
structure and is a material that is suitable to suciently fasten the storm door to the door opening. The
storm door will sag over time if the mounting surface is not suciently fastened to the entryway.

The insect screen is intended for reasonable insect
control and not the retention of objects, persons, or
pets within the interior. The insect screen material
will not stop a person from falling through the door.
Follow manufacturers' instructions for hand and power
tools. Always wear safety glasses. Failure to do so could
result in injury, product or property damage.
Windows and doors can be heavy. Use safe lifting techniques and a reasonable number of people with enough
strength to lift, carry, and install window and door products. Heavier windows and doors will require mechanical
assistance. Failure to do so could result in injury, product or property damage.
Metal fasteners and components could corrode when exposed to preservative-
treated or re-retardent treated lumber. Use approved fasteners and components
to fasten window or door. Failure to do so could cause a failure resulting in injury,
product or property damage.
Fastener must attach to a structural framing member with a 1" minimum fastener
embedment. Failure to do so could result in injury, product or property damage.
DO NOT remove screws that attached installation clips or gusset plates to window
or door frames. Doing so could result in injury, product or property damage.
Storm doors have small
parts. Small parts if
swallowed could pose a
choking hazard to young
children. Dispose of unused,
loose, or easily removed small
parts. Failure to do so could
result in injury.
Metal components of the entry and the storm door
may become hot when exposed to sunlight.

1. Most homeowners prefer to have the storm door
handle on the same side as the entry door handle.
In shallow door openings, this can cause the two
handles to interfere (see Figure 4).
2. Check for potential interference by measuring up
from the Door Sill 40 ½". Measure in from mounting
surface on brickmould 3 ⁄". This is roughly the
location and depth of the storm door handle.
3. If you anticipate interference, purchase a storm door
hinged on the opposite side of your entry door.
In this step, you will conrm that your storm door hinges on the correct side.
1. To determine the exterior and interior of the door panel: at the bottom of the door,
the interior side has a sweep with screws (Figure 5). The exterior is the side without
a sweep and screws.
2. Left Handed (Figure 6): From the exterior, a left handed storm door will have the handle
holes on the left side of the storm door. See pages 4-8 for installation instructions.
3. Right Handed (Figure 7): From the exterior, a right handed storm door will have the handle
holes on the right side of the storm door. See pages 9-13 for installation instructions.

1. Remove door from carton, grasping it as shown.
Support door’s weight by the door frame, not by
hinge and latch rails.
2. Set aside rain cap extender and the screw covers
for use in a later step
Ensure all clips are properly attached.
1. With door standing from the exterior, ensure
latch rail is properly seated in orange spacer clips
(I), and ensure bottom spacer (J) is attached to
bottom of door and slid to handle side.
NOTE: See troubleshooting section at end of install
guide if bottom spacer becomes detached.

Storm door will close more quickly when the entry door is open. To achieve the proper closing speed, you will need
to adjust the closer using the built-in adjustment screw. Check for safe closing speed with your entry door in both
the closed and open position. To prevent injury, make sure people and/or pets are completely through the opening
before allowing the storm door to close freely.
WARNING
1. Open the door and then let it close.
Note the speed at which the door closes.
2. Use a at blade screwdriver to adjust the
closer to the desired speed. For a faster closing
speed, turn the adjustment screw to the left
(counterclockwise).
For a slower closing speed, turn the adjustment
screw to the right (clockwise).
3. Test the speed at which the door closes after
each adjustment. Adjust the screw to achieve
the desired door closing speed.
