Storm door repair costs $150 to $400 on average, according to the issue. Common repairs include reframing, fixing locks or hinges, and replacing the screen or glass.

A handyman costs $50 to $80 per hour for small and basic repairs.

Repairing a storm door is worth it if the damage is minor and the door is less than 10 years old. Consider replacing an older storm door with greater damages, unless it has historical value.

Storm door replacement costs $500 to $1,050 on average.

A well-maintained storm door lasts 15 to 30 years on average, depending on the door quality and climate. Regular cleaning, repairing small issues quickly, and using the door gently make the door last longer.

While no glass is fully hurricane-proof, the strongest storm-door glass types are:

• Thicker impact-resistant glass
• Polycarbonate-glazed glass
• Laminated glass
• Tempered glass

Storm doors made with these glass types are less likely to crack in high winds with a lot of debris outside.
