How Much Does It Cost to Install a Storm Door or Window?
We understand that cost is a major factor when it comes to deciding on storm door and window installations or repairs. Lancaster Paint and Glass offers convenient services designed to make the process as affordable and hassle-free as possible. Depending on the type of storm door, size, material, and other factors, installing a storm door can range from $150-$600. Storm windows are even more cost-effective and typically range from $100-$400 per unit. If you live in Lancaster County and choose to have one of our technicians come to your home for a consultation, there may be some additional charges associated with travel time and labor costs.
Storm Door and Window Installation
Our storm door and window installations provide superior protection against harsh weather conditions while enhancing the curb appeal of your home. To make things easy for our customers, we offer cost-effective storm door and window installations as well as fast turnaround times. In addition, all of our installations come with a one-year warranty to guarantee quality workmanship every time.
Services include measuring the opening of your window or door, prepping the area for installation, installing weather seals around the frame, and ensuring a perfect fit for your new panel. We use only high-quality materials to ensure durability and maximum energy efficiency.
Storm panels can be replaced with glass or safety glass. For your safety, the federal building code requires that we replace door panels with safety glass (tempered/laminated glass or plexiglass).
If needed, we can come to your Lancaster County property to measure your door or window for custom storm panels. We can also fabricate fixed storm panels to fit into a wide variety of door and window frames – from single panel frames to traditional casements. We’ll ensure a secure seal around the edges for maximum energy efficiency and protection against the elements.
Please note that these panels will not fit into most pre-fabricated triple track window frames. However, they are usually compatible with other frames. Before you order a fixed storm panel, we suggest that you insert a piece of metal as a sample to make sure it fits.

FAQs
What Is the Benefit of a Storm Door or Window?
Installing storm doors and windows provides numerous benefits, including better protection from inclement weather, improved energy efficiency, increased security against intruders, extra insulation against outside noise, and enhanced curb appeal. Storm doors are also very durable and low maintenance; they’re constructed from strong materials like aluminum or fiberglass and hold up well against winds of up to 80 mph.
What Is the Benefit of a Screen Door or Window?
Screen doors and windows are especially beneficial when it comes to allowing fresh air into your home. By increasing air circulation and allowing natural light to enter, they can help to reduce your energy bills. Door and window screens also provide an extra layer of security against intruders (including pests).
Can I Repair Storm or Screen Doors and Windows Myself?
When it comes to storm or screen door and window repairs, it’s important to understand that not all DIY methods are safe or cost-effective. We advise against repairing these fixtures yourself, as doing so without the proper knowledge and experience can lead to more costly repair work down the line. Not only can you cause more damage by using the wrong tools or materials, but you also risk injury from incorrect installation techniques. Plus, many home improvement stores don’t offer warranties on individual components, leaving you with no recourse if your repair job fails.
Should I Bring My Repair Item to You?
Because it is faster and generally more cost-effective, we recommend that you bring your storm panel or screen repair item to us. If you live in Lancaster County and prefer that we visit you, you can contact us here or call us at 717-299-7321 to book an appointment. Please have the following information ready:
- Full name, address, phone number
- Specific location of door or window, including which floor it is located on (so we know whether to bring a ladder). Please also indicate whether the repair is needed in the front, back, or side of your house and ensure that we can access the repair item while you are not home (e.g. in the case that you have a gated or fenced backyard).
