Default Custom storm door

I need to replace my custom storm door. It was fitted at that time (
before i bought the house ) with extra enclosures. I've shopped around
and most places are asking way out of hand for a simple storm door,
even if its custom made. The last quote I got was around $647.I suspect
that price does not include labor. Is it possible to get a door that
would fit that very enclosure? The door itself measures 32 1/2 wide to
82" in height. lowes and HD are out of the question, they insist that
they have to go by the regular measure of that opening and if necessary
add padded enclosures.


Why not just trim out the door to the standard 80X32 with trim strips? Then
go to any Box Store and buy your standard storm door to fit that opening.
Simple Stupid even if you live in NYC.

Well some of us stupid ones write here so we can get so called 'experts' like u the opportunity to criticize us. What is a Box store and where does one get trim strips? I hope this is not an embarrassing question to one with such expertise. i thought this was a forum where one can ask questions.
