Albuquerque’s clear skies, sudden dust storms, and intense UV exposure create a unique challenge for residential entrances. A well-built storm door adds a vital layer of protection, energy efficiency, and curb appeal. At CountBricks, we combine decades of field experience with real-time AI estimating to help homeowners and contractors choose, price, and install storm doors in Albuquerque quickly and correctly.
• Temperature swings from chilly dawns to 100-degree afternoons demand a tight seal
• Frequent wind gusts carry abrasive desert sand that wears down primary doors
• High UV index can fade finishes—low-E glass and UV-resistant coatings preserve color
• Monsoon rains arrive fast; a storm door deflects driving water away from the interior jamb
Residential construction in Albuquerque mixes adobe style, pueblo revival, and contemporary stucco. Each façade has distinct jamb depths, sill heights, and color palettes. The CountBricks material database tracks these architectural nuances so our voice-driven platform can recommend the correct frame width, hardware finish, and mounting method while you talk through project details on site.
Aluminum Frame
• Lightweight and rust-proof—great for dry climates
• Powder-coat options withstand UV, matching common stucco and trim colors
Steel Frame
• Highest impact resistance; ideal for homes exposed to blowing debris
• Heavier to hang—CountBricks installers verify hinge backing during our AI-guided pre-check
Composite/Vinyl Frame
• Thermal break design reduces heat transfer, trimming cooling bills
• Requires precise sizing; CountBricks AI takeoffs calculate rough opening tolerances in seconds
Many Albuquerque homeowners want fresh evening airflow without inviting insects. CountBricks offers:
• Full-view tempered glass panels for winter insulation
• Retractable screens for breezy summer nights
• Multi-pane low-E glass that blocks 75% of UV while maintaining clear sightlines over the Sandias

An Albuquerque homeowner in the Northeast Heights needed a storm door that complemented adobe-style trim while keeping cooling costs down. Using CountBricks’ AI blueprint takeoff, we measured a 36" x 80" opening directly from a smartphone photo. The system suggested a composite frame with low-E glass and a bronze powder-coat that matched the vigas overhead.
