    I'm a handy guy that has done more house work than I feel I should have, but as a now older fella, I found the instructions a little intimidating. I appreciate your video instructional and the way you did it in every respect. Keep up the good work, and God bless you and your family.

    I just installed my first storm door, a Larson just like this one in this video that is reversable. The box says it's easy to install, but it took me an entire day just to figure out how to actually hang the door. I learned how to drill through the metal. Had to go to Lowe's to purchase metal drill bits. This door doesn't come put together you have to assemble all of it. It is turning out to be a major project with a big learning curve for me. But I did it!

    Before you put all of the hinge screws in check the door clearance at top and edge. I had to drop mine down a 1/16th of an inch cus the door was scrapping at the top of the door jam. I used the temporary attachment holes to lower it by drilling a hole at the lowest point of 2 unused ones and installed screws leaving 1/8th inch loose then removed the other temporary screws and the door settled down and now I have room at the top.

    ok...got the Larson door from Lowes with large dog door at bottom price 307$. I measured 10x and made sure it was level. The instructions were easy and when I watched your video and followed the instructions,( believe the instructions!) it went together simply. Only thing that happened is that the head of the manufacture screw for strike plate broke off in door frame. Ill deal with that later . it took approximately 2 hours because I'm cautiously slow :). now to get the dogs through the door

    I want to hand a storm door this spring and the instructions look difficult. You seem to simplify the entire process. I going to buy a Larsen door so i can follow your steps.

    I installed this door on my back porch less than 6 months ago and it's already starting to show signs of damage at the bottom. I don't understand the way they designed this where they have that strip at the bottom but they don't say to caulk it and I just figured that water will go down into the channel and drain out but it appears that it allows the water in and then the door saps up the water into the particle board. Any suggestions? I think I'm just probably going to have to caulk it all over the place to try and keep the moisture out of the bottom channel.

      I don't have that bottom strip touching the bottom of my door. There is at least a 1/2" gap in between mine. You could remove it and try to cut it down somehow. Then drill new holes and remount it. I have 3 of these doors and don't have that issue.

      @@CountryLivingExperience ty... there is about a quarter of an inch+ Gap between the bottom of the threshold and the door. It's not touching the door. I know water has to get in there because it's not instructed to caulk and I think of too much water gets in there it builds up. Thanks for your feedback though :-)

    Hi, I’m looking to install a similar Larson storm door on my existing decorative exterior front door which has sidelights- and I just noticed that the door knob goes past the door frame/trim- giving me no cavity whatsoever to install this storm door- ugh. So I’m assuming I would need add a frame and build out and add additional trim/moulding to give me a cavity to mount the storm door framing onto. I’m assuming there is no other way around it, correct?

    • @CountryLivingExperience

      I think you are correct. Without seeing it, I couldn't say for sure though. It is very odd that your door handle sticks out that far.

    A winter storm smashed our storm door, so I just got back from Lowes with a Larson Bismark door. It's $125 and looks very much like the one you installed. If there are any differences, I suspect they're minor and I feel a lot more confident tackling this project after watching your video.
    I noticed that you didn't apply any caulk to your door. Is this something you didn't have time for, or do you feel it isn't necessary? If I don't have to do it, I'd just as soon not bother.

    • @CountryLivingExperience
      @CountryLivingExperience  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't feel that the caulking was necessary because it is not getting directly hit with any rain. It just depends on where your door is located.

    • @pat.traynor

      Mine will be unprotected, so I guess I should go with the caulking. Thanks again for a great video.

Just got the highview and the edges of the glass are full of fingerprint smudges and there is swarf all over and some black grease to around the metal joints on the lower part of mine. FYI swarf is metal particles/shavings from the machining process.

    This door looks like the Model #37098032 It is advertised as a "Reversa Screen for top or bottom venting" I've read the reviews on this door and many have complained about the door leaking to the inside through the screen. One reviewer stated that if you install the door for top venting it will leak. Your door looks to be installed for bottom venting and I'd like to know if it's leaking?

      @@CountryLivingExperience I felt it was one of the more study doors. Most of the more expensive doors had to much glass in them. Other doors with the retractable screens had a poorly designed latch at the top which I felt wouldn't get latched properly every time. Only thing I don't like about this door is the locking handle. I would have preferred the fancy lever style handles that have the deadbolt but all those doors had the problems I mentioned above. I wonder if there is an up grade I can install on these doors. 🤔
