Quick answers

How do I measure for a storm door?

Measure the width between the inside edges of the brick mould at the top, middle and bottom, and the height from the sill to the underside of the top trim. Use the smallest width and check the opening for square before ordering.

Does storm door glass need to be safety glass?

Yes, storm door glazing falls under federal safety rules. The federal glazing standard 16 CFR 1201 lists storm doors and combination doors among the products its glazing safety requirements cover.

Why does my storm door slam or not close all the way?

The closer is usually set wrong: its adjustment screw controls closing speed and the hold-open position sets its tension. Adjusting the closer, checking the wind chain, and freeing a binding sweep normally fix a door that slams or stays open.
