Hello,

The problem with these long retainer strips is that each door company changes the style that they use almost every year. This makes it next to impossible for companies like ours to keep up. 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.

Would I need 2 sets or 4 sets?

Thank you,

The number of clips that you need depends on the size of the door but I would suggest installing four or five on each side and maybe two at the top to start.

When you're ready, these parts can be purchased directly on our website or by calling our customer service department at (888) 991-1929.
