FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Do impact sliding doors lower my insurance?
They can. Florida law makes insurers offer wind-mitigation discounts, and impact-rated openings count. How much depends on your insurer, so ask your agent and keep the product approval papers from the install.
How long does a new sliding door take?
The install itself is usually a day. The weeks before are measuring, the permit and making the door to size. The contractor gives you the timeline with the estimate.
What is the High Velocity Hurricane Zone?
The strictest part of the Florida Building Code, covering Miami-Dade and Broward. Doors installed there must carry a Miami-Dade product approval (NOA). Palm Beach County follows the general code, which still asks for impact protection.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the door, its size and what needs fixing. The pro looks at the door and gives you a free quote before any work starts, with no obligation.
Why is my sliding door so hard to open?
Usually worn or rusted rollers, or a dirty or bent track. Salt air and sand wear both out faster near the coast. A new set of rollers fixes most doors in one visit.
Should I repair or replace my sliding door?
If the frame and glass are sound, repair is almost always cheaper. Replacement makes sense when the frame is corroded, the glass is failing on several panels, or you want impact-rated doors.
Do I need a permit?
Repairs like rollers, tracks and locks usually don't. Replacing the door does. In Miami-Dade and Broward, new doors also need a Miami-Dade product approval (NOA). The licensed contractor handles both.
Can I get a new door in my condo?
Yes. Many associations want a copy of the contractor's licence and insurance before work starts, and the contractor provides them.
