<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Since my daughter and son-in-law purchased a house that was 100 years old, Kathy and I decided to give them a new front door as a wedding gift. So, after the wedding, we took them to the local lumber yard to pick out a new front door and a storm door to go with it.<\/p>\n
Once they had found the perfect door, the man at the counter directed them to a selection of storm doors. Since they had already decided on the swing for the main door, the salesman quickly pointed out a storm door with a complimentary swing. So, we purchased it.<\/p>\n
The first requirement, was installing the door glass. I guess the manufacture was too lazy to install the glass so, we were required to do so.<\/p>\n
No problem. Just install the 6 foot clipping retainer on either side of the window.<\/p>\n
Problem!!! The clip doesn’t fit. After an hour, it was installed. Great!!!<\/p>\n
Well, while the box for the storm door said that it was a right hand swing, when we started installing it, we discovered that it could be either. No problem, until we read the worthless instructions.<\/p>\n
The directions were vague and the pictures were indecipherable. So, we were left guessing. This meant a trip to the lumber yard to look at the display.<\/p>\n
Once we looked at the display, it all made sense. Unfortunately, each time we had a question, we needed to make a trip to the lumber yard. This, of course, took time and gas for each trip to the lumber yard.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, we got the storm door installed but it took as much effort as it did for installing the outside door.<\/p>\n
Once, while we were inspecting the display door, we saw another couple looking at these doors. I wanted to say, “NO!!!, don’t do it”, but I didn’t.<\/p>\n
While the new door is installed, the next time I will look at a different brand.<\/p>\n
