The Storm King closer was one of the best made. Before you go and replace them, I recommend that you try to lubricate them first. You would be surprised what a little oil or WD40 will do.
That said, the closest replacement closer we have is our 40-079. The tube length is 9", though, which means you may need to drill new installation holes. Take note that the closer, storm door bracket, and jamb bracket lengths might come out the same. |

It would, but keep in mind that you should try applying lubricant to your current storm door closer first. It may still work. You may also want to turn the adjustment screw located toward the door, at the end of closer.

If you need to lubricate the closer, I would spray the rod that comes out of the back end of the closer. However, I don't believe that your problem is that the door is having trouble closing; if anything, your door is closing too fast. Now, you said you turned the adjustment screw on the end of the closer. You said you loosened the adjustment screw., but you should have to tighten the screw to slow it down. Turn the screw clockwise. |
