Good Door, Decent Instructions
I installed this door yesterday, and I'm very happy with how it turned out. I have never installed a door before, but I followed the instructions and everything went pretty smoothly. If you decide to purchase this door for your home, here are some lessons I learned along the way.
You'll need a 7/16" drill bit. That's a BIG drill bit. Even if you have an assortment of drill bits in your toolbox, don't assume you have 7/16". Buying one added approximately $20 to the cost of the project.
The instructions were good overall, but they were sometimes inaccurate or misleading. For example, in one place they referred to using the 2" flathead screws. The included screws were actually phillips. That's not a huge problem, but it was a bit confusing for a few minutes. Also, the instructions sometimes instruct you to pre-drill pilot holes in the door when the necessary holes are already pre-drilled from the factory. This again created some momentary confusion as I wondered whether I was looking in the right place.
You could probably make-do with an electric drill, but having an impact driver made several steps much easier - especially when installing the handle. This door can work with a left-hand or right-hand swing installation, meaning you have to manually drill holes for the handle. That's where the aforementioned 7/16" drill bit comes in. You'll also drill six even larger holes using the included 13/16" drill bit. I slowed WAY down for this process since drilling the wrong hole in the wrong place could totally ruin the door. Thankfully, a paper template was included that makes this process relatively intuitive. I'm attaching a photo I took in the middle of my installation yesterday depicting the size and quantity of the holes (you'll have to do this on both sides of the door).
Overall, I'm very pleased with the door. 5 stars!

WARP, WILL NOT CLOSE
We purchased this storm door over a year ago. Shortly after it was installed it stopped closing properly. Nine out of ten times as you pass through it will not close on its own. We have replaced the spring bracket twice, this morning
I discovered that it broke for the third time. The storm door has swung open on its own and broke our porch light.

Great door and ordering experience. The door itself is very well built and the installation, while it took time, was straightforward.
The ordering process and door installation was trouble free. Great experience

Doesn’t close properly
I’ve replaced the retractable spring twice already. Brackets are very weak. It’s as if the unit is warped. Won’t be buying another

The install definitely tested my DIY skills but the end...
The install definitely tested my DIY skills but the end product was perfect. The hardware holes were not pre-drilled so somewhat nerve racking drilling through the metal but the stencil worked great. Extremely important to follow the step-by-step instructions but they are comprehensive. Second door I have bought and installed! Great design and functional with the hidden screen.

Poor Manufacturing Quality
Don't be fooled by the Anderson name. Product arrived missing the pull-down screen handle. Replacement handle sent under warranty. While installing handle glass frame came apart. Looks like they attempt to use an interference fit to keep the aluminum frame connected to the interior corner L braces. My pressing on handle screw so it would cut threads in provided pilot hole caused enough flexure in the upper glass frame to cause it to come apart. I will NOT buy again.

Nice door, AWFUL instructions
2hour install? The instructions weren’t at all clear. None of the parts or pieces are labeled. Pre-drilled holes were off. The illustration of one piece showed it “L” shaped, found out it’s flat. And more than once we found that the instructions were out of sequence and we needed to back track. Started at 10:30 AM. Started cussing at 2:45PM. Hoping to have the handle set on tomorrow. The door looks good, but not at all worth the hassle. Pay for the easy install door!

Very good value
Fairly easy to install, the drilling hardware for the handle and lock isn't great. Door also does not seal completely around door frame and you may need to fill with caulking or other insulator. Door looks beautiful and feels solid. I tinted mine and it offers some privacy while open and has helped reduce the heat in the front room. Watch their installation video, it will help fill in the gaps from the instructions, which are piecemealed and not completed user friendly.

Would return it if I could
This door feels high-quality, however it has some issues such that I’d like to get a different brand. When it rains water will leak into the house from the inside lower corner right under the glass. The threshold was not tall enough to completely cover the gap at the bottom of the door. The closure always slams at the very end, no matter how slow you adjust the door to close. It did assemble fairly easily, but all in all, I would return this door if I wasn’t already outside the 90 day window.
