The door separated where the hinges are mounted. I was told it will not be warrantied.




They DO NOT stand behind their product. Why do they even bother to have a warranty if it will not be honored. DON'T BUY ANDERSEN PRODUCTS. PALM COAST, FLORIDA -- Purchased Andersen 3000 storm door. Upon hanging, noticed top right corner of door panel strip (across top) was a little wider than the rest of the door thus preventing it to shut. Also it had a very sharp rough unfinished endHad to use a grinder to bring it into tolerance (yes the door was level, square and true). Also the sweep was all deformed and twisted. Upon install found one of the 2 sweep screws attaching it was already stripped out so I couldn't adjust that side. The worst part of the installation was the screw channel covers; almost impossible to install. A number of years ago I purchased an EMCO 400 door. The door rotted thru in 5 years. No more Andersen for me! BERLIN, MARYLAND -- Bought storm door had it professionally installed. The cylinder fell off including the hinges, because of a strong wind.




Home Depot said it was covered under warranty. Called Andersen, they said it was not covered, we had to pay for the replacement part. Will never buy Andersen again, why say you have a warranty if you don't? LANCASTER, PENNSYLVANIA -- I purchased an Andersen Storm door. I wish I had read these reviews first! The door is an absolute rip off, the latch doesn't work (it's less than a week old). The installation was a nightmare and all of the inner parts of the latches are plastic! The cost was not in keeping with the quality. I will NEVER purchase anything by Andersen again! EVANSTON, ILLINOIS -- In March 2010 I purchased a mid-level Andersen storm door from our local Home Depot. As I am not knowledgeable on the installation of a storm door, I hired a handyman to pick up the door, transport it and install it on my home. All was well until approximately 9 months ago when I noticed tiny cracks had begun appearing near the bottom on both the inside and outside of the door. As time went by these cracks became quite apparent and began pulling apart.




When touched, these tears emitted some type of dust which puffed out onto the ground below. Not knowing what this dust is or if it might be hazardous is quite unsettling and it was obvious that this door was failing rather quickly. After inquiring at Home Depot on what could be causing the issue with my Andersen door, I was reminded that the door had a 12 year warranty and I should call Andersen to find out if this issue was covered. Andersen very quickly realized there was a material defect because my warranty was indeed approved via Andersen's e-mail notification shortly thereafter. Unfortunately, no representative followed up within the specified ten days they stated in the warranty approval e-mail with any further instructions so I finally called the designated number to inquire about the approved warranty. Upon my query, I was told there were two options for the door replacement. I could return only the door for no fee or I could return everything, including the frame for a fee of $55.




I was then told that Andersen regrettably would not cover the cost I would incur to have this door removed, transported, exchanged, new door transported and once again installed. Their reasoning was that labor is not covered under their warranty and I would understand that completely if the door were being replaced due to something I had caused. Unfortunately for Andersen, it was not the labor that failed, it was the door that I purchased from them in good faith and paid to have transported and installed already once before which failed. After speaking to three people at Andersen - a customer service representative, a manager and then a technical person, I have been repeatedly told that the cost for the transport and new install would not be covered due to their warranty not covering labor. As of this writing, my opinion of Andersen as a company has dropped several levels. I purchased their product in good faith, and now that it failed, I should not be punished by having to incur additional costs imposed by their product failure.




Further, I have a friend who has a somewhat older Andersen storm door which I had the opportunity to see recently and it is in terrible shape with the outside flaking and peeling off all around the frame. Because of the condition of her very similar door, I have no expectation that the replacement door will hold up any better than the door I am replacing which means I will incur additional costs in years to come. At the very least, Andersen should reimburse me the cost of having another door transported and installed since it was their product failure that is causing me to incur the cost. Such an amount is likely only a modest cost to a company like Andersen, but quite meaningful to my bank account. To not cover this cost is a very bad deal for me, the customer who put faith in their product and the solid reputation of their name. My recommendation is to purchase from ANY other company than Andersen. Not only are they no longer using quality materials that stand up to normal wear and tear (and by that I mean a normal Chicago summer and winter), but their level of customer service is a fright to deal with.




BAYPORT, MINNESOTA -- In the fall of 2014 we bought a Series 4000 Andersen storm door from Home Depot, feeling the company's reputation spoke for itself. The door was more expensive than any other door we looked at but, we bought it anyway, despite 2 friends and our handyman trying to talk us out of it. We should have listened to them. The door was beautiful when it went in but within 2 months it started dragging on the bottom of the door. Upon closer inspection, we discovered the hinges were warping and the weld on the door itself was coming apart. Despite trying to adjust the door repeatedly, it got to the point it wouldn't close. Andersen would only send a new hinge but refuses to fix the door which is a complete loss and will not latch at all. Trust me, this door's poor quality is only exceeded by Andersen's abysmal customer service. Run, don't walk from this door and Andersen in general. They are both pathetic! WINTER HAVEN, FLORIDA -- As many others have written, I purchased an Andersen Storm Door, 3000 model.




The door has a closer that requires you to latch it to keep it open. The latch does not release properly and at this point does not work at all. In a lengthy chat with their customer service department, I was told that the latch has been redesigned with better materials, so when I buy a new one, I will not experience this problem. I explained that I should not have to pay for something that they discovered defective, but after far too long on hold with customer service, and supervisors, they refused to send me a new part. Apparently, they do not think a satisfied customer is worth a $30 part. DES MOINES, IOWA -- I am in the process of replacing my 3rd door due to the flaking problem these doors have due to poor workmanship or material. I am not willing to pay another fee as well as pay someone to install another door. I do not feel I should keep paying money for something that is not the customer's fault. I can't afford to keep replacing this door every year; It seems the door only lasts for 1 year then it starts flaking away.




We originally purchased the 1st door in Nov. 2012 (Home Depot # 349 in Kenner, LA) and paid someone to install the 1st door. My 2nd door was replaced in August 2013 at a cost of $65.00 (returning the door) plus an additional $160 to reinstall the 2nd door. So this is the 3rd door and having the same problem as the last 2. The wood core inside of the bottom panel keeps coming through the metal due to rotting out. My door is under the roof and not directly in the rain. I am requesting my money back or a credit towards a clear glass door. I will probably get neither one. This door was customized to fit my house so it was more costly. NEW YORK -- My Emco storm door series 300 is rotting and bulging out. It's 5 years old. I called Ecco and replaced it - had to reinstall handles. Drill holes in the door took about 2 hours to do. My complaint is it's going to happen again. I noticed the bottom of the door is not sealed and you can see the wood if you can call it wood. It's that pressed crap wood that when it gets wet it swells.
