- Ventilating storm door: interchangeable glass/screen panels; $350–$750 installed.

Installation Quality
Installation quality matters more than product grade for long-term window performance. A premium window poorly installed performs worse than a mid-range window done right.
- Rough opening prep: flashing tape over sill, sides, head.
- Foam insulation: low-expansion foam around perimeter.
- Interior + exterior caulk: paintable silicone or polyurethane.
- Exterior trim / brickmold: replace rotten trim; flash head properly.
- Interior trim: shim for level; reinstall or replace casing.
- Manufacturer warranty: void without proper install; verify contractor certification.
