Arch Home Improvements on Aug 01, 2013If you have a storm door with glass over the door the temperature can get 180 degrees or more between the doors. Make sure that the glass on the storm door is changed to screen when the weather is hot.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Aug 01, 2013How the metal gets refinished depends upon the metal the door is made of, Aluminum requires special primers, steel the same. However you cannot simply use a latex paint and expect it to last. Special paints such as Rustoleum is suggested. Their paint line is designed to be used on metals. But remember the door needs to be sanded, primed then painted using materials that are designed to be used on the metal type the door is made of.Helpful Reply
