I am trying to find replacement plastic strips to keep the glass in place. I will need a full set. Also will want a locking replacement handle for the door.

The pictures are the thickness of the glass insert, and the door where the glass and plastic strip should be.

Thank you for your help.

Hello there, Conor.

Would it be possible for us to see a photo of the end profile for the strip you show here? We'd also like to see photos of the handle in question. Cole Sewell has been out of business for some time now so we won't have an exact match but we should still be able to help.

Thank you for the quick response. I unfortunately do not have any of the strip available.

If the strip is a retainer strip then we recommend considering something like our 70-180 storm door clip and drilling a hole for a 33-020 screw. This is how storm door companies did it once upon a time, and we still find it to be an effective and simple solution.

The 70-180 would need to be secured on the face of the door with a 33-020 screw. The end leg of the clip has a 1/2" reach and should be pressed up against the screen or glass panel in the door holding it in place. I would suggest installing four or five on each side and maybe two at the top.

As for the handle set, our 40-049 appears to be the best option in our inventory. Take a look at the specifications and see what you think.
