storm doors

Outer entrance barriers

Storm doors are secondary exterior doors installed outside a home's main entrance, providing an extra layer of protection against weather, improving insulation, and allowing ventilation when fitted with screens.

They typically have interchangeable glass and screen panels for seasonal adjustment: We swap the glass for screens in the storm door every spring.
