I was so happy to finally have found a store that could custom make me a set of storm doors that would be exactly like the ones that were on my house originally. I had bought this house only six months ago and knew that if I wanted to update it, it would have to come out looking like it did about two hundred years ago. It had been labeled a historic home in the city and there were strict rules on renovating them.

The original storm doors looked to be made of wrought iron, but I was not sure that I could afford wrought iron doors or not. I talked with the store owner for a little while and discussed my options and how much it was going to cost me. He was familiar with my house and was glad to find out that I was going to be renovating it over the next couple of years.

The store owner offered to make my wrought iron doors for a thirty percent discount, so that I did not have to cheat the look of the house with vinyl or wood. I thanked him and paid him up front for my new doors. He promised to have them finished in about a month and I was happy with that.
