I struggled tremendously to get the screw covers or weather stripping installed on the sides. The top piece went on easy. Finally I used a blow dryer on the side screw covers to make them more flexible, then I ran my flat head screwdriver blade down the groove for the "short leg" in order to open up the groove a little, and it finally snapped in place.

Howdy. Good job Handyman. A few years ago, I was buying new Larson storm doors wholesale for $86 and offering them installed on Craigslist for $199. I got a lot of business from homeowners; and not just from my storm door marketing honey trap. It was during that time, I decided how much easier it is when you install the same brand over and over. Now, I use the "same brand technique" on ceiling fans, disposals, locks, doors, faucets, toilets, etc. - The other day (Thursday) I had to buy a different brand set of glass shower doors to install. Sure enough, it took me twice as long as my regular Sterling brand. The excess, hidden profit, or loss, is how familiar are you with the brand, instructions, process and technique? - I think the Larson storm doors are still only $109 at Lowes. Anderson's are very expensive compared. -

Depends on the angle of the threshold of the inside door. Sometimes you just don't have a choice unless you purchase both doors at the same time. It's not a problem though if the storm has a low profile sweep.

In my mind, if it were on the other side, and storms were bad enough to catch the door, it would slam into the side of the porch there. With it up this way, the hinges should stop it from hitting the house, and if it’s bad enough winds it’ll just rip off anyway.

They don't come with safety springs. So when you remove the old door save the spring and hardware. You probably won't find a place to attach to the new door because they're paper-thin plastic. Suggest you hang the door opposite your prevailing wind, or else hold on tight while holding groceries, purse and a baby.

This is true, but in my case it was dictated by my deck approach from my drive, and the swing of the inside door. I shy away from having opposing swing doors, Ex. (Storm opens from left and inside opens from right). Then you always feel like you're crawling into an opening to get to your inside door handle.

KableGuyCGY Those handles are made to flip up so kids and pets can’t easily and accidentally pull down and get out.
thanks for describing in detail every step, you really made be better understand what i was going to be doing. some how to videos are awful and don’t explain anything and just fast forward.

Hi "The Handyman" yes there should have been a door latch in the box. Good news we are mailing one out! Bad news the door will need to be taken completely out to install the latch.
Explain how you measure the door... is that the inside opening?
Amazing how simple & easy that install went. That Anderson storm door is Top Quality construction. The strike still has me puzzled though & how does the deadbolt work❓

It does work without a strike plate. The design has the lock tenon engaging the edge of latch rail - sits just behind it. His point about not losing any of the clips that hold the assembly together is valid.

Anderson/Emco and Larson are pretty closely matched. This particular series is easy to install and durable, Larson had really picked up their quality, though over a few years back.
Wow, I spend 30 minutes just trying to line up the screw holes for the lock set.
Bottom weatherstrip pre-installed too? Very different from the bad old days....

Great job
P.s thanks for mentioning the right or left hand swing too ☺ I would have forgot about that☺ your storm door looks really nice too☺
Thanks
Can you secure the door? And does it come with a key?
How much did you charge them? DFW texas probably around $200 for a storm.

When yellow tools finally start to grow up, they change in color; just wait....when they’re all grown up, they turn red🤣🤣😉 Always a pleasure to watch your vids & see what you’re working on👍🏻 Looking forward to the next one, & just maybe you can do a short review on those makita tools for us (your thoughts/opinions from real world everyday use). Cheers✌🏼
What brand of door is this and where did you get it please? This is exactly what I am looking for, a pre-framed storm door that you slap in place, screw down, shim and adjust, and done. Thank you in advance.

What should be the charge to remove/install this storm door?
I have an Andersen 3000 that was installed before we purchased the house. This storm door's latch and deadbolt is too far away at full lock to actually keep the door shut. How can i fix this?
So how did you you the lock cause the latch like a door lock have to create a hole correct
Is there a catch for the dead bolt that you were playing with?? I don’t see a catch for that either??
Man getting ready to do 3 of these in a few minutes. Sitting here at customers waiting. Asked if i could hold off for few minutes. He’s getting his kids to school. Anyway, i told him 1.5 hrs a door estimated. Lololol but we will see if he got the correct doors, he wants two of them on a French door so i have to build out the jam on two.
Left hand swing.... is that from the inside or outside?
what door did you have, brand etc - thx
Interesting. Reminds me of watching my grandfather and father working. Some people learn through verbal /text instructions while others learn through just watching.....periodically asking questions along the way like...*"Does it matter what size the door is vs the door frame? Also, what if the storm door doesn't come with any hardware? "*
nice property here !!!
ok the dog is hilarious!
Outstanding
What brand of door did you use? Link? Thanks!

Hey thank you, I agree with other comments, (as a social media guy) I would just add a voice over when editting ❤
Curious Why did you stop warring you vest and start using a tool belt again? The one you have in this video is pretty small but looks like it would carry every thing you need for small jobs.
Howdy. Good job Handyman. A few years ago, I was buying new Larson storm doors wholesale for $86 and offering them installed on Craigslist for $199. I got a lot of business from homeowners; and not just from my storm door marketing honey trap. It was during that time, I decided how much easier it is when you install the same brand over and over. Now, I use the "same brand technique" on ceiling fans, disposals, locks, doors, faucets, toilets, etc. - The other day (Thursday) I had to buy a different brand set of glass shower doors to install. Sure enough, it took me twice as long as my regular Sterling brand. The excess, hidden profit, or loss, is how familiar are you with the brand, instructions, process and technique? - I think the Larson storm doors are still only $109 at Lowes. Anderson's are very expensive compared. -
I thought you couldn’t do it in a hardie board trim ?
My favorite part of this video is the German Shorthair ❤
I notice that the storm door is butt up against the threshold of the main door. I've seen some storm doors that don't even come close. Is this a best practice?
@strozyvoodoo5395

Depends on the angle of the threshold of the inside door. Sometimes you just don't have a choice unless you purchase both doors at the same time. It's not a problem though if the storm has a low profile sweep.
Cool
So when it says "left hand swing" i'm guessing that means from the inside going out?
@strozyvoodoo5395
2 жыл бұрын
It just means the side the handle is on. It's actually opposite the way the door actually swings.
Just asking, Wouldn't a storm door swinging the other way have been a better idea?
@williamc.5325

In my mind, if it were on the other side, and storms were bad enough to catch the door, it would slam into the side of the porch there. With it up this way, the hinges should stop it from hitting the house, and if it’s bad enough winds it’ll just rip off anyway.

Storms doors almost always should open towards the outside and be opposite swing of entry door. I say almost always because there are always some strange circumstances but he definitely installed it correctly.
great video. I didn't learn a single thing...
They don't come with safety springs. So when you remove the old door save the spring and hardware. You probably won't find a place to attach to the new door because they're paper-thin plastic. Suggest you hang the door opposite your prevailing wind, or else hold on tight while holding groceries, purse and a baby.

This is true, but in my case it was dictated by my deck approach from my drive, and the swing of the inside door. I shy away from having opposing swing doors, Ex. (Storm opens from left and inside opens from right). Then you always feel like you're crawling into an opening to get to your inside door handle.

Decent vid, just one curious question.....why would u have the door swing against the flow of the deck? That part makes no sense. We're switching our our partly for that reason. And they're soooo ugly.
