Q:Wind caught my door when I was exiting with my hands full. Blew it wide open, tore the closer screws out of the door frame. Shouldn't there be a chain or something to prevent that?

Answer This Question
A: Thank you for your question. We apologize for the inconvenience that you have experienced. Please be advised that we do not recommend installing wind chains on our storm doors. Our experience, which is backed up by tests conducted by our engineering department, is that a wind chain does not significantly increase the ability of the door to resist wind damage. In fact, our tests indicate that, under certain conditions, the presence of a wind chain may actually increase the likelihood of damage to the door and door jamb. Because of this, we strongly discourage the installation of wind chains on our doors and do not offer one. Any damages from the door would be excluded from coverage under the terms of the door's warranty. - Laine

Q:Do I need to have clearance to open the door beyond 90 degrees to disengage the mechanism that holds it open? If so, how far beyond 90 degrees? Thank you!

Answer This Question
A: Thank you for your question. The typical opening range of a storm door is between 80º and 90º. When allowing the storm door to close on its own, the storm door should close to within nearly 6" - 8" inches from the frame, bounce away slightly and then close completely and latch.

Q:When you reverse the door, is the screen pull down handle on the outside?

1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Thank you for your question. The Andersen 2000 Series Storm Door is a universal door. When changing the handing of the door, you just need to reinstall the hinge and the handle set without actually reversing the storm door. The window handle should stay in the inside part of the door. You may review the installation manual for more information. - Laine
