AfterImpact Entry & French Doors in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Replacing standard exterior doors with impact-rated entry and French doors in Palm Beach Gardens typically costs between $3,500 and $8,500 per opening, depending on the material, glass configuration, and specific wind-load requirements for your home. At TruePane Windows & Doors, we handle the entire process from initial measurement to final installation with our Impact Windows & Doors services, ensuring your home is protected against the intense weather conditions we see here in South Florida. If your current doors are binding in the humidity, letting light through the sides, or simply aren’t rated for the hurricane-strength winds common in our region, it is time to look at a permanent solution. We are a locally-rooted company founded by Dale Kessler in 2008, bringing years of trade experience to every job. You can reach us at (772) 794-8169 to discuss your project or schedule a free estimate.
Homeowners in Palm Beach Gardens know that our doors face more than just the occasional storm. The persistent salt air, the blistering midday heat, and the seasonal pressure changes take a toll on standard wood or hollow-metal doors. When you choose to upgrade to impact-rated systems, you are not just buying a new door; you are installing a barrier that keeps the elements outside where they belong. We are an authorized installer for major lines like PGT, CGI, and we believe in showing you the differences between these products side-by-side on paper before you spend a dime. Our work is governed by our founding rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. This philosophy extends to every hinge, lockset, and weather-strip we install as part of our Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach Gardens service offerings.
When You Need Impact Entry & French Doors
In Palm Beach Gardens, the signs that your current doors are failing often start small. You might notice the door feels heavier to operate or that the latch doesn’t click into place without a firm push. These are not just inconveniences; they are signals that the structure of the frame or the door itself has shifted due to our local climate. We often see homeowners waiting until a storm is forecast before they start looking for solutions, but the best time to address these issues is when the weather is calm.
- Binding or Sticking During Humid Months: Our high local humidity causes wood frames to swell, making doors difficult to open or close. If you find yourself fighting with your front door every summer, the material is likely not suited for the Florida climate.
- Light Leaking Around the Perimeter: If you can see daylight through the gaps around your door, you are losing energy and inviting moisture and pests into your home. This is a common failure point for older, non-impact entry doors.
- Corrosion on Hardware and Hinges: The salt air in Palm Beach Gardens is unforgiving. If your hinges are showing rust or your locksets are pitted, the structural integrity of the door assembly is likely compromised, and the manufacturer warranty has long since expired.
- Drafts and Temperature Fluctuations: If your entryway feels significantly warmer than the rest of your home, your door is likely lacking the thermal break and proper sealing required for our local heat.
- Outdated Security or Lack of Impact Rating: If you are still relying on plywood shutters to cover your doors during a storm, you are putting your home at unnecessary risk. Modern impact entry and French doors are designed to withstand wind-borne debris without needing additional protection.
When you call (772) 794-8169, you will speak to a real person, not an automated system. We understand that your home is your largest investment, and when you are ready to upgrade your entryways, you need a team that respects your property and your time. We back our installations with the Done Right Promise and ensure that both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing before our truck ever leaves your driveway.
Our Impact Entry & French Doors Process
We do not use a franchise playbook. We use a process refined years of trade work, focused on precision and accountability. We know that in Palm Beach Gardens, a door is only as good as its installation. Here is how we handle your project from start to finish.
- The Initial Assessment and Measurement: We send a uniformed, background-checked technician to your home to measure every opening twice. We do not guess. We look at the existing framing, the threshold condition, and the specific wind-load requirements for your neighborhood.
- Side-by-Side Product Selection: We bring samples and manufacturer literature from lines like PGT, CGI, and Jeld-Wen. We lay them out on your table so you can compare the glass, the frame materials, and the locking mechanisms. You decide what fits your budget and your aesthetic.
- The Upfront Quote: You receive a written estimate with no hidden line items. We believe in a square deal, which means the price we quote is the price you pay. We do not believe in surprise charges once the work begins.
- Precision Installation: Our team arrives on time. We remove the old door with care, inspect the rough opening for any hidden wood rot or framing issues, and install the new unit to manufacturer specifications. We seal every edge and test the operation multiple times.
- Warranty Registration and Handover: Before we leave, we register both warranty layers-the manufacturer’s and our own workmanship guarantee-in writing. We show you how to operate your new doors and answer any questions about maintenance.
We believe in the Keystone Standard, which means we do not cut corners on the materials that keep your home safe. Whether you are looking for a classic French door look, Impact Garage Doors, or a high-security impact entry door, we ensure the installation meets the same standard we would use for our own homes. If you have questions about the process or want to know if your specific home needs a custom frame build-out, call us at (772) 794-8169.
Impact Entry & French Doors Pricing in Palm Beach Gardens
Pricing for impact entry and French doors is rarely a one-size-fits-all number because every home in Palm Beach Gardens has different requirements for structural load and door size. However, we believe in transparency. Below is a general range of what you can expect when upgrading to impact-rated systems with TruePane.
| Door Type | Estimated Installed Cost Range |
|---|---|
| Single Impact Entry Door | $3,500 - $5,500 |
| Double Impact Entry Door | $5,000 - $8,500 |
| Impact French Door System (Standard) | $6,000 - $10,000+ |
These figures include the cost of the door units, professional installation, removal and disposal of old materials, and the registration of all warranties. Factors that influence the final price include custom sizing, the type of glass (laminated vs. tempered-laminated), the finish options, and the complexity of the existing door frame. We offer free estimates, and we are happy to come to your home to provide a firm, written quote after inspecting the job site. Please remember we offer a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, as well as a free written repair estimate if you are looking to service existing doors rather than replace them.
FAQs - Impact Entry & French Doors
Is it cheaper to repair my current doors or replace them with impact-rated ones?
Repairing an existing door is often a temporary fix if the frame is rotting or the door is simply not rated for the wind loads we experience in Palm Beach Gardens. While a repair might cost less in the short term, replacing the door with a modern impact-rated unit provides long-term value through energy savings, improved security, and the elimination of storm shutter labor. Call (772) 794-8169 for a professional assessment of your current doors to see if a repair is a viable, long-term solution.
How long does the installation of a new entry door take?
Most standard entry door installations are completed in a single visit, typically within one day. Our team arrives prepared with all necessary tools and materials to ensure we are in and out of your home with minimal disruption. For more complex French door configurations, Impact Sliding Glass Doors, or openings that require custom framing adjustments, we will provide a clear timeline during your free estimate so you know exactly what to expect.
Do impact doors really make a difference in energy bills?
Yes, modern impact doors are built with advanced thermal breaks and high-performance glass that significantly reduce heat transfer compared to older, single-pane or hollow-core doors. In the Florida heat, keeping the outside temperature from penetrating your entryway lowers the load on your air conditioning system, which can lead to noticeable savings on your monthly utility bills. We can show you the energy efficiency ratings for the specific brands we carry during our consultation.
Can you match the style of my existing home architecture?
We work with over a dozen manufacturers, including PGT, CGI, and Jeld-Wen, which allows us to offer a wide range of styles, from traditional wood-grain finishes to modern, clean-lined designs. Whether you live in an older home in a historic neighborhood or a newer build, we can find an impact-rated door that complements your home’s aesthetic while providing the protection you need.
