R. Iser: I had a issue with the air arm and customer service replaced it. The replacement arm works great. Highly recommend Ideal for your storm door needs, they stand behind their products.

Geob DonteGeob Donte: They market the cylinder as 10.5" in length. This is a replacement for my wind damaged Wright pneumatic closer. My Wright cylinder was exactly 10.5". This closer is slightly shorter(which is a little frustrating), but nonetheless, I was able to get it to work. Unfortunately, I couldn't replace with the same model, beacause I needed in overnight product, so the door wouldn't rip off the hinges.
It appears this closer to be just as strong and durable as my Wright closer that lasted well over 15 years.
Easy to install and adjust.

trevor: The cylinder is larger in width than either my front or rear screen door cylinders (by almost 50%) but doesnt rub when installed. It does require a bit of adjustment from the set screw in the rear of the cylinder to find the sweet spot where it doesn't slam shut but shuts smoothly on it's own. In the end I would definitely buy it again.

Chapin: It was easy to install. All the hardware was included for the installation. For my application, which was for a steel type security screen door, I pre-drilled all the holes on the wooden door jamb and the steel door. I applied some grease to the screws going into the steel door to make it easier to turn the screws going into the steel door, working them back and forth by hand until they seated properly. (I used a large screwdriver it so I wouldn't snap off the screw heads by using my electric impact driver). It's a very strong door closer and I was pleased with its performance so far. It was so strong by itself, I didn't need to install the chain, but I saved it just in case. I was concerned to use it on my steel door, but it worked out fine. Oh yeah, I didn't install it on top of the door jamb, but rather on the middle section of the door, horizontally with the door knob/dead bolt. The steel door had horizontal metal flat bars which made it easy to install.

Ken Anderson: Our big old house is an 1890 Victorian. It has a hallway leading to the back bedrooms. That hallway has a door. Our big old house is full of teenagers. 4 of them. And their friends. The teenagers are brain dead. They can’t remember anything. Like how to close the hallway door. And keep it closed! So my wife and I get to listen to their music and laughter. All the time. Day and night. Because the hallway door isn’t closed. My wife and I deserve some peace and quiet. We’ve earned it.

And we’ve finally figured out how to get it !!!

We can’t shoot the teenagers because that’s against the law. But we can make sure the hallway door stays closed. How? Through the simple expedient of installing a pneumatic door closer. What a stroke of genius! Should have done that years ago. But it only recently crossed our tired, feeble little minds.

The unit we selected was the SK1730W Heavy Duty Door Closer in White by Ideal Security Inc. Cost was less than $16. It’s quiet, unobtrusive and boy oh boy, does it ever work well! We’re now enjoying the sound of silence. Well, almost.

Installation was easy, and only...
