Screen/window retainer strip

Question

I am trying to locate the retainer strip which secures either the screen or storm window into my storm door. There are 4 pieces of this strip, right, left, top and bottom.
I cannot find a manufacturer tag on the door so Inhave no idea who made it.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Glenn

Hi there!

I think we can help, but our solution is a little different. The problem with these long retainer strips is that every different door company changes the style that they use almost every year. This makes it next to impossible to keep up. As such, we suggest 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 press 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.
