Storm Door Installation: Why It’s a Must Before Wisconsin Winter Hits

How Storm Door Installation Can Save Your Home from Harsh Wisconsin Winters

When winter hits in Wisconsin, it doesn’t hold back. Between the bitter wind, ice, and snow buildup, your home’s exterior takes a beating, especially the front entry. One smart, preventative upgrade that offers lasting value? Storm door installation. 

At Renewal by Andersen, we know the importance of preparing your home for harsh seasonal changes. Here’s how adding a storm door now can protect your investment and improve energy efficiency all season long. 

Trap Warm Air and Keep Drafts Out 

A storm door adds an insulating barrier between your primary entry door and the outside world. That extra layer helps reduce cold-air infiltration and keeps your indoor air where it belongs, inside. 

Even if your main door isn’t the most energy-efficient, a storm door can dramatically reduce heat loss and help stabilize indoor temperatures. 

Protect Your Entry Door from Salt, Ice & Snow 

Storm doors take the brunt of winter’s wrath, shielding your main door from moisture, road salt and icy debris. This is crucial in Wisconsin where snow can linger and cause damage over time. 

Boost Your Energy Efficiency (and Lower Your Heating Bills) 

Wisconsin winters are long and expensive. When your home leaks heat through door gaps, your furnace has to work overtime. A storm door helps seal those problem areas, leading to improved energy performance and real savings on your utility bills. 

A simple install today can mean a warmer, more efficient home tomorrow. 

Let the Light In, Not the Cold 

Many storm door models feature full-view glass panels that allow natural light into your home, even during the shortest, darkest days of the year. That extra sunlight makes your entryway feel more inviting without sacrificing insulation or protection. 

Enhance Security and Peace of Mind 

Modern storm doors offer more than just weather protection; they also add a layer of safety. With reinforced glass, secure locks, and impact-resistant construction, a storm door strengthens your home’s security year-round. 

Elevate Curb Appeal and Home Value 

A high-quality storm door enhances the look of your entryway while offering functional value. Whether you’re planning to stay put or looking to sell in the future, it’s a smart way to boost your home’s overall appearance and marketability. 

Get Ahead of the Snow: Install Your Storm Door Now 

When it comes to preparing for winter, timing matters. Storm door installation is most effective when done before the deep freeze arrives, so don’t wait for the first snowfall to take action. Renewal by Andersen can help you choose and install the perfect storm door to suit your home.

Hear From Our Customers

This was a great crew to work with. Both the original install manager we worked with (Jay) and the install team (Daniel, Mason, Tony, Ethan, and Jose). Everyone was very professional and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions and the end result on the house is great. In 3 days they replaced an old bay window with a new bay window, a set of french doors on the patio with a sliding patio door, and our old front door with a new front door and storm door.

I cant express how happy we are with choosing Andersen for our window installation. Our sales representative was knowledgeable with product and answered any questions we had without hesitation. I did also fill out a survey that was sent in an email, but sadly I failed to personally name the two gentlemen that performed the actual installation. Barrett and Francisco were our guys, and let me tell you, they were outstanding!!! They did Excellent work and were professional as well as efficient and made this a smooth, none evasive process for us. I strongly recommend this company and these installers to anyone in need of windows!!! My husband and I could not be more pleased we chose Andersen for replacing our windows!!!

Jason and Brett did an awesome job installing our doors. We had separate installers a month earlier for our windows who also did a fantastic job. They were all very professional and cleaned up almost better than the area looked before the installation! Since these were both jobs that took more than one day the installers were great at keeping us informed on the status of where the project was at along the way.
