Pella Storm Door Warranty


Congratulations on choosing a Pella storm door to protect and beautify your home. This superior quality door has been designed to give you years of trouble-free service, and you are protected by this limited warranty:

Pella warrants to the original homeowner purchaser of this storm door that it will, without charge to the purchaser, repair or exchange, at its option, any door determined to be defective in material or workmanship for 20 years after the purchase date. The purchaser will be responsible for transporting the door to and from the nearest Pella storm door dealer. Should the door be determined to defective in material or workmanship after 20 years from the purchase date, the original purchaser may buy one new Pella storm door at 50% off the then-current manufacturer’s suggested retail list price for as long as the original purchaser owns the home on which the door was installed. The purchase must be made directly from the factory, and all transportation charges are the responsibility of the purchaser.

Should the door be determined to be defective and the purchaser incurs a reinstallation cost within three years of the purchase date, he or she may be reimbursed for these costs up to a maximum of $25.00, upon furnishing a copy of the invoice for the reinstallation costs.

As a condition of this warranty, it is required that the door be used for residential use only in an owner-occupied home, that it be installed properly as an operating door according to manufacturer’s instructions, and that it not be altered in any way. For multi-unit housing applications, ask your dealer for a copy of the appropriate warranty or phone Pella’s Customer Service Department at the phone number listed below. This warranty is not transferable.
