The door systems we install
Six ways to open
the same wall.
Pick a door and watch the same patio opening change, with how it moves drawn from above. We measure the opening and the structure around it and specify the system that fits.
Same opening, same wall: only the door changes. The drawing shows how each one moves.
Impact glass for doors
Same front door, after dark:
pick the glass.
Every impact glass is laminated and stays in the frame when it breaks. On a front door the question is mostly who can see in once the lights are on.
Same impact strength in all four. Tint, privacy and Low-E can be combined on one door.
Frame colors
One back porch,
three frame colors.
The frames are the lines you see from the pool. Watch the same house change and pick the one that fits it.
Aluminum frames with a powder coat built for the Florida sun (AAMA 2604). Vinyl from CWS comes in white and a few other colors.
The sill
Raised or flush:
where the water stops.
The bottom of a door is where rain gets in. Compare the two sills on the same slider, with the cut through each one.
Where the water is actually stopped
Before the panels go in, the sill track is bedded in sealant on a treated buck and anchored into the slab at the spacing the approval drawing sets. A raised or a flush sill is only as dry as this step.
The lock
One lever,
three points holding.
In a storm the wind pushes and pulls the whole leaf, not just the spot where the handle is. A multi-point lock ties the door to the frame along its full height.
Every lock and hinge on an impact door is part of its approval. We install the hardware the approval lists, not a lookalike.
Brands we install
Three door lines,
one crew installing all of them.
We are a direct dealer of ES Windows and CWS and order front doors from BHI, so your order goes straight to the source. We pick the line that fits each opening and the code where you live.

Solar control and the coast
A slider is the biggest glass
in the house. The coating matters.
Whatever the glass does about heat, it does across the largest area of glass in the house, often facing east or west. Impact rating and solar control are two separate choices made on the same glass.
| Glass | Visible light | Solar heat gain | Light to solar gain | Under the 45% turtle threshold |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solarban 60 with clear | 70% | 0.39 | 1.79 | No |
| Solarban 70 with clear | 64% | 0.27 | 2.37 | No |
| Solarbronze with Solarban 70 | 38% | 0.26 | 1.46 | Yes |
| Solargray with Solarban 70 | 32% | 0.24 | 1.33 | Yes |
Solarban is made by Vitro Architectural Glass, formerly PPG, and Solarban 70 was sold as Solarban 70XL until 2019. These are Vitro's published figures for a 1-inch insulating unit with a 1/2-inch airspace and two 1/4-inch lites. Most of what we install is 9/16-inch laminated impact, which is a different buildup and carries different numbers. We give you the figures for the exact glass on your quote, not these.
The turtle rule on the beach
Where indoor light shows from a nesting beach, the glass may let out 45 percent of the light or less (Florida Rule 62B-55). Counties and some towns add their own rules, so we confirm it with the building department.
Nesting season in Palm Beach
Environmental Resources Management enforces it under the county code. Martin, Broward and Miami-Dade each have their own ordinance.
The gray also cuts the heat
Solargray with Solarban 70 lets in 0.24 of the sun's heat, against 0.27 for the clear version. On the beach the turtle rule and the power bill pull the same way.
What we will not tell you: a percentage off your power bill. It depends on the exposure, the overhang and how the house is run. We put the exact glass on your quote, with the number it carries.
How the job runs
From first measure
to a closed permit.
Eight steps, one team. You always know which one you are on.
Free on-site consultation
We measure the openings, check the structure around them and talk through systems, glass and finishes.
Written proposal
System, approval numbers, design pressures, price and timeline, all in writing.
Final field measure
A second measure after you approve, because door frames leave no room for guesswork.
Shop drawings and order
Reviewed with you, then released to ES Windows, CWS or BHI for fabrication.
Permit package
We submit to your building department with the product approvals attached.
Installation
Old doors out, new frames set, anchored and sealed, tracks aligned, site cleaned.
Inspection
We meet the inspector and close the permit.
Close-out documents
The closed permit and the approval number for every door we installed.

Britni FoulonJul 2026We had a great experience working with this company. They came out to one of our customer's homes to complete a window door repair, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish.
Communication was excellent—they were responsive, kept everyone informed, showed up when they said they would, and completed high-quality work. Our customer was happy, and that reflects well on us too.
As fellow business owners, we truly appreciate finding companies that are reliable, professional, and take pride in their work. It's not always easy to find businesses you feel confident referring to your own clients, but this is definitely one we'll continue to recommend.
Thank you for making us look good and for providing such great service!

When calling they answered the phone immediately, they were kind and knowledgeable and very reasonably priced. I used to work in glass and mirror so I know the in and outs of the industry, and this company does it right. I highly recommend.

JennySep 2026From the moment I walked into the showroom, I was blown away! The entire space is absolutely stunning - sexy, classy, modern, and so beautifully designed. It honestly felt like walking into a posh Miami hotel, and it even smelled amazing!
I had the pleasure of speaking with Deena in sales, and she was phenomenal! She was warm, professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout my visit. She took the time to answer my questions and made the whole experience feel exciting and effortless.
Everything was displayed beautifully, and after visiting the showroom and speaking with Deena, I’m even more excited about my project. I seriously can’t wait to get started!
If the showroom and customer service are any indication of what’s to come, I know my project is going to be amazing. Highly recommend stopping by - and definitely ask for Deena!

Doing the windows too?
Most projects pair the doors with impact windows from the same manufacturers: one permit, one crew, one inspection.

Impact door FAQ
Questions we get
every week.
Not sure what your house needs? Call us and an estimator will walk you through it.
Should I replace the doors or the windows first?
You can do either. Many owners start with the doors because they are the biggest openings and the oldest hardware in the house. If you plan to do both eventually, one combined permit saves a second permit fee, a second inspection and a second round of stucco and paint touch-ups, and the wind permit file ends up covering every opening at once. We quote it both ways so you can compare. See impact windows.
Do impact doors replace my hurricane shutters?
On the openings they protect, yes. An impact-rated door is permanent opening protection, so the panels and tracks on that opening are no longer needed. If other openings in the house still have non-impact glass, keep their protection in place until they are upgraded. Your building department and your insurer both look at the whole envelope, not one door.
How wide can a sliding or pocket door be?
Bigger than most people expect. Multi-panel and pocket systems reach opening widths a standard slider never could, and the exact limit depends on the series, the design pressure your elevation needs and the structure above the opening. Very large spans sometimes call for a structural review of the header, and we coordinate that as part of the job instead of leaving it to you. See multi-slide and pocket doors.
What is design pressure on a door?
Design pressure, or DP, is the wind load the assembly is tested to carry, positive and negative, measured in pounds per square foot. The load grows with the size of the opening, and doors are the largest openings in the house, so the anchoring schedule, the interlocks between panels and the sill matter as much as the glass. A big DP number in a brochure means nothing unless the frame, anchors and hardware are part of the same approval, which is why we always specify the complete assembly and put the numbers on your proposal.
Will water get in under a low or flush sill?
Water performance is part of the product approval, and the sill is where the tradeoff lives. A raised sill gives the highest water rating. A low-profile or flush sill is easier to walk over and looks cleaner, but it gives up part of that rating. The right answer depends on how exposed that side of the house is, whether the opening sits under a roof overhang and how the patio drains. We walk you through the honest difference on your opening before you choose.
Do I need a permit to replace a door?
Yes. Exterior door replacement is permitted work everywhere in Martin, Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade, and the application includes the product approval for the exact door being installed. We prepare the package, submit it and meet the inspector at the end. An unpermitted door follows the house to closing and to your insurer, so if someone offers to skip that step, walk away. See permits and approvals.
Which brands do you install?
ES Windows, the Miami company that is part of Tecnoglass, and CWS, made in Ocala and part of Pella, for sliding, French and other glass doors. For fiberglass front doors we order from BHI Doors, a Florida door company since 1954 that is now part of Trimlite. Every door we quote carries a Florida Product Approval or a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, and the number goes on your proposal.
How much do impact doors cost?
The system drives the price more than anything else. A two-panel slider, a four-panel pocket system and a glass pivot entry are three very different jobs, and size, glass package, sill choice and structural work move the number further. We do not publish ranges we would have to walk back. We measure the openings, specify each one and give you one firm written price that includes product, permit, installation and cleanup. The estimate is free and there is no obligation.
Which areas do you serve?
Martin, Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties, from our shop at 7830 Byron Dr Ste 4, West Palm Beach, FL 33404. Miami-Dade and Broward are inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone and Palm Beach and Martin are not, so the approvals and the specification change depending on which side of the line you are on. We handle both every week. See all service areas.
