1.
Using a tape measure, find and mark the
vertical center of the storm door. For 80”
storm doors, the measurement will be 39
1/2”. For 78” storm doors, the measurement
will be 38 1/2”.
2.
Check to make sure there will be no
interference between the primary door
handle and storm door handle prior to
drilling. Move the template up or down if
necessary to avoid interference.
1.
Place the center line of the template (M) at the location
marked on the door. Fold the template around the edge of
the door, aligning the door edge lines on the template with
the door edges. Tape the template in place.
2.
Drill holes from each side of door frame according to the
template, drilling 1/8” shallow starter holes first. For proper
alignment of holes and to eliminate burrs, drill each hole
from its own side of the door. Do not drill completely
through the door from one side only.
3.
Remove the template and properly discard.
