In 1995 I installed an upper end Larson Storm door on our front entrance. Last December I found some deterioration at the bottom of the door related to weather. After 17 years of service I figured I would just go buy another storm door.
I was looking at new Larson doors at the big box store and noticed they had a "lifetime warranty". I figured what the heck and delved into it.
Long story short they gave me $100 for my original door to be placed to the purchase of a new one. I bought 3 new Larson doors!
They have my continued business!

They do make a good product.The one on your front door has been there for 18 years and this wind has not tore it up.
Not like some of the other doors out there.

Good to know. I've got one on my front door as well. Going on 11 or 12 years now and it still looks good.

They are good doors and that was a heckuva deal.
I love stories like this. It gives me hope for the country.

Most are made in Brookings, SD. Good corporate citizen too, supplying doors for Habitat homes and supporting the community in a variety of ways.

I think I've installed a dozen or so Larsons through the years. That is what I always reccomend.

If you have to take a second shot then you probably shouldn't have taken the first shot.

The Larcon we just ahd installed has receding glass upper portion that uncovers a screen. Just slides up and down internally w/o removal. Sweet. lt has two clsing pistons and in general looks lke it will last forever.

For all of you buying Larson products. I work for one of Larson's suppliers, so. THANK YOU. You are keeping me working in this crap economy.
