Storm doors for patio doors? |
|
My brother has them on his french doors - the storm is a slider. I have two doors that I would love to put storms on (they both face north and winter is on its way)but I can't find anything on the web that even talks about this type of storm door.
My basement door consists of three panels with the center one being the door - it opens in. A slider wouldn't work, unless I have the panels reconfigured and put the door on the end instead of the middle -I wonder if that is even possible.
Does anyone have any ideas?

1. What about special glass films? |
|
I know there are films to reduce sunlight and heat entry. And I think the ones I've seen in home improvement stores are also supposed to help keep heat inside in winter, to some extent.

picture of yours. I read your description several times and still am not sure what you have.
A picture is worth a thousand words. :)

Ever hear of making storm windows with Plexiglas and tubing? They friction fit on the inside frame.
