Bill,  Some storm doors have a long piano type hinge from top to bottom.
Try using W-40 on the full legth of the hinge. After spraying with lube, try
swinging the door back and forth a few times if the squeak doesn't quit, try
spraying again with a spray type lubricant.

Spiro's mention of storm doors reminded me that I meant to ask this:
WE have three storm doors altogether, and two are associated with a sort of
three-seasons room. These two have developped some really loud squeals when
the door is opened or closed. There has to be a way of getting a lubricant
to the hinge, but there don't seem to be pins that could be extracted.
Anybody have experience with this?
Thanks.
