The main door behind the storm door never got very hot before the storm door was installed.
My cousin s front door was like this and the door handle was uncomfortably hot to the touch.
Now the glass in my storm door is acting like a magnifying glass and making the surface of the regular door too hot to touch.
Recently put a storm door on my front door which faces directly south.
This really cools down your hot front door handle.
But look at your house color scheme if it goes well.
Add a door handle cover.
Slides on easily like a glove for your door handle and protects your metal handle from heating up in the sun.
Inelegant but better than burning your hands all the time.
Our handle covers come in three colors patterns.
If not then choose a very light color.
Landscaping get some obstruction to block the sun consider front door landscaping that will offer natural protection trees are the best option but take a few years to get big.
The weather does not have to be hot in order for a metal storm door or screen door handle to heat up and cause burns.

Keeps your metal door handle from becoming hot in the sun.
The door is glass top to bottom and faces west and gets so hot that the metal door handles are too hot to touch.
Makes door handle easy to grip.
You could probably get venetian blinds for inside the storm door would let in light when you wanted it in the morning shade the door in the afternoon or as others pointed out look for reflective glass.
Need gloves or pot holders to open the storm door even from the inside in the afternoon.
Also there is shade screen which you may or not be able to hang in front of your door depending on hoa landlord rules.
