Basically, the door frame is mounted to the door panel. All you have to do is set it in the opening and screw it down. There is no cutting involved. Hacksaws aren’t needed. Neither are squares. In theory it’s easy.

However, in theory a root canal is also easy too. But there’s a reason we leave it to the professionals–because we don’t need the pain involved!

Another note is that the Pella storm door line was recently bought out by Larson Storm doors. Now, Pella storm doors are made by Larson, and are available at Lowe's tores nationwide. The good news is they’ve taken the best of both lines and are combining their doors. The bad new is they haven’t updated installation instructions yet. So go with your gut when installing.
