Can I install a storm door over my wood door?

We strongly recommend avoiding the use of a storm door over your wood entry door. Storm doors trap heat between the two doors, creating an environment where excessive heat and humidity can build up. This trapped heat significantly increases the risk of warping, cracking, and other damage to the wood.

Please note that installing a storm door over your wood door will void the warranty. Our warranty is based on proper usage and installation practices, and storm door use is considered a condition that places your wood door at a much higher risk of damage.

If additional protection is needed, we recommend considering a properly sized overhang to shield your entryway from direct exposure to the elements. A well-designed overhang not only safeguards your door but also enhances the beauty and longevity of your home's entrance.
