Storm Door Advice Wanted

Out here on the East Coast we have Home Depot and Lowes as the two major Home Centers. I have purchased Anderson Insulated glass storm doors from Home Depot and I am quite satisfied with them. They are well made and provide good heat/cool insulation. The 4000 and 3000 series are particularly good.

Why not sand it to get rid of the corrosion and to roughen the surface, wash it, then paint it to match the main door?

Not much work, or expense. Getting a new door and hanging it entails both.

Jack S - The door is too far gone for sanding and painting. See the photo links below. It looks as though it rotted from the inside out. By the time I noticed it was bubbling a couple of years ago, the damage was too severe for repair.

That door is pretty f*d up. Have a lot of drive-bys there or something?

Nope - it's had a pretty easy life. It is used just 1 time a day. I'm thinking it was defective or just cheap, because it looks like it rotted from the inside out due to water penetration.
