Storm Door & Security Door Installation
Storm doors add insulation, ventilation and protection for your entry door, and security doors add a layer of protection against forced entry. A bad fit makes them rattle, stick and let in drafts. NorTech connects you with vetted licensed contractors who set their own price and install the door so it closes smoothly and locks securely.

Choosing storm, screen or security
A full-view storm door has interchangeable glass and screen panels, so you can let air in during mild weather and seal it in winter. Screen-only doors provide ventilation at the lowest cost, while retractable screens disappear when not needed. Security doors use heavy steel frames, tamper-resistant hinges and multi-point locks to resist forced entry. The contractor considers your entry door, exposure and needs, and explains differences in strength, appearance and visibility. Share the make and finish of your entry door, because a storm door that clashes with it, or blocks hardware, can detract from the look of the entrance.
Fit, hardware and weatherproofing
The door must fit squarely in the opening with even gaps on all sides. Pneumatic closers should close the door gently but firmly and may need adjustment with the seasons. Latches, handles and locks should align with the strike plate, and security doors benefit from long screws into the framing. Weatherstripping and a drip cap keep out rain and drafts. A careful installer checks the swing, the closer and the latch before leaving. Measure the swing space on the porch before you order, since a door that opens into a railing or a step can be awkward or unsafe to use.
Maintenance and getting the most from it
Clean tracks and glass, lubricate hinges and locks and replace screen mesh as it wears. In winter, switch to glass panels, and in summer, vent with screens. Security doors may need periodic tightening and rust prevention. Make sure security doors can be opened from inside without a key, since fire safety rules require easy exit. Keep installation paperwork for warranty claims and to order replacement parts. Test the closer speed and the latch every season, and tighten the screws on the hinges and strike plate if you notice any loosening.
