A pella storm door that is difficult to open or close may be the result of a faulty or misaligned door latch.
Pella storm door handle wont open.
Pry off the plastic covers loosen the screws and slide the strikes up or down a few millimeters.
If the door hangs or doesn t latch the door latch is not properly aligned.
If you cant get help from pella let me know and i will see if the lock is available.
Twist the hinge rail screws a quarter turn each counterclockwise using a flat screwdriver.
You will very likely need a new lock as the spring inside has probably broken.

A loose handle should be tightened to function properly.
This loosens the tension in the hinges to make the door easier to open.
I even walked around to the outside of the door and nothing.

The hinge rail runs vertically along the hinge side of the door.
Once the mechanism has been released adjust stiff pella sliding door locks by loosening the screws holding the latching strikes on the inside of the door frame.
The handle is moving freely on both sides and it appears to be unlocked but it just won t open.
I have a full view pella storm door that is now refusing to open.
