| Mid-view | $350 – $700 |
| High-view | $375 – $750 |
| Full-view | $425 – $950 |
| Ventilating | $425 – $975 |

| Low-E glass | $475 – $1,000 |
| Security | $475 – $1,150 |
| Double | $800 – $1,800 |

Door prices by material (Angi, materials only)
| Material | Average cost |
|---|---|
| Vinyl | $100 – $500 |
| Aluminum | $150 – $500 |
| Composite | $150 – $600 |
| Steel | $150 – $1,000 |
| Glass (full panel) | $250 – $1,100 |
| Wood | $275 – $1,500 |
Vinyl and aluminum are the budget picks; steel is the choice for storm-prone regions; wood looks best and costs most.3 Homewyse prices a popular aluminum storm door with weatherstripped frame and lockset at $331 to $506 retail – squarely in Angi’s aluminum band.2,3
Labor and extras
| Item | Cost |

| Install labor | $175 – $350 (HomeGuide); $250 – $450 (Angi) |

| Glass upgrades per pane | Low-E $25 – $50; tempered $50 – $80; beveled $50 – $80 (Angi) |

Labor is where the sources split: HomeGuide’s $175 to $350 against Angi’s $250 to $450 per door. Angi’s $435 national average comes from 1,298 verified projects, but it is unclear whether that figure bundles the door – read both as labor-plus-basics bookends and get itemized local quotes.
DIY or hire
Storm doors are sold as pre-hung kits designed for homeowner installation – a drill, level, measuring tape, and 2 to 4 hours is the whole job on a standard frame. Home Depot’s storm door section shows current kit prices (plain link, not affiliate). Hire out for out-of-square frames, custom sizes, or double doors. One comparison worth knowing: a screen door ($175 to $500 installed) buys ventilation only; the storm door’s glass adds weather protection and insulation.1
