030: How to Fix a Storm Door Closer

Amy’s storm door is slamming shut.   What can she do?   She can turn the screw on the closer clockwise until the door doesn’t slam shut.   Amy could also adjust the pin position. The pin connects the closer to the door bracket.    But ultimately, I recommend replacing the close if it’s more than 10-15 years old. This typically is the fix that works the best if the closer is that old.   Find a door closer that gets 4 or 5 star reviews.  I like looking online at reviews then taking the old closer to the local store to make sure the new one matches.    A new door closer with good reviews will cost $15-$35.     Today’s Quick Tip is about bathroom remodeling.   I recently went to the Covering’s Tile conference in Orlando with my buddy Steve.   Btw, if you’re looking to remodel your bathroom and want a dream space you should totally call Steve if you live in Pittsburgh   http://www.srwcontractinginc.com/   Anyhow, if you’re going to remodel your bathroom you should look into getting system of products made by the same company.   For example, get the shower pan, waterproofing membrane, thin-set, and grout from the same company.   This helps maintain the warranty on all the different products.         Submit your DIY question or Quick Tip by   Calling me at 800-965-0023   Visiting http://www.homerepairtutor.com/podcast/ and use the SpeakPipe recorder   Or signing up to my email newsletter and responding back to me       Do you need help with your bathroom?   Check out Bathroom Repair Tutor   http://bathroomrepairtutor.com/   Our memberships are limited to 100 people on a monthly basis.
