Screen & Storm Inserts
(Can be sold separately for other screen and storm window projects you may have.)
General Info
|
Vintage Doors screen doors feature a removable screen insert which can be replaced by an optional tempered glass or Plexiglas storm insert to help you to keep out old man winter and making it a snap to stain or paint your door.
Screen and storm inserts are only visible from the interior view of the screen door.
Both inserts are cased with a ¾ aluminum frame (white or bronze).
Inserts are housed within a separate ¾ wooden framework/decorative molding which surround the perimeter of the door’s openings. This is the wooden area to the right of the white or bronze frame shown in the photos to the right.
The screen or storm is sandwiched into this housing by several small flush clips as shown in both photos on the right.

Screen & Storm inserts are made with your choice of a white or bronze frame - shown above.
Screen/storm doors feature a one piece insert on the inside of the door itself. Oversized doors may require a two piece, split set-up. Even if your door size does not require it, you may opt to have a two piece set-up for a small fee. A two piece screen/storm set-up is ideal if you have pets that may rip or scratch the screen or for kids who may push on the screen itself. If a replacement is needed, only one out of the two inserts will need to be replaced, rather than the entire insert for a one piece set-up.

Tempered Glass Storm Inserts:
- $115 for doors up to 36" x 84"
- $115 - $145 for oversized doors depending on size

Tempered glass is 5 times stronger than standard glass. If broken under extreme pressure, tempered storms will crumble into many small round pebbles which will not injure anyone badly making it a safety glass.
Plexiglas Storm Inserts:
- $115 for doors up to 36" x 84"
- Not available for some oversized doors.
Plexiglas is a weather resitant thermoplastic, very durable, slightly flexes and bends without breaking but is a soft material which increases the likelihood of scratches.
(Tempered glass & Plexiglas can be sold seperately framed as storm panels or unframed.)
