Thank you for contacting us! We don't sell a replacement for this retainer strip, unfortunately. Every manufacturer has their own idea of how they should be sized and the design is changed often so it's very difficult to supply. The best we can offer is our 70-180 storm door clip and drill 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.
