Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Jupiter’s Preferred Door Installation Company
We’ve spent more than four decades in South Florida’s building trades, and the Jupiter market has its own unforgiving rules. Salt air from two directions. A 160+ mph wind design code. Homes built in the 70s and 80s with original single-pane doors that were never meant to handle any of it. We know exactly what to look for before a door comes out, because we’ve pulled hundreds of failed units from Jupiter homes.
Dale Kessler founded this company on a rule he keeps on the whiteboard to this day: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard governs every door we set in Jupiter. Background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. And every job carries our Done Right Promise, no paperwork fights, no arguing.
We’re not the cheapest bid in Jupiter, and we’re fine with that. Homeowners who call us have usually already been burned once by a door that binds in July or a track that seized two years after a cut-rate install. They want the job done right by a company that will still answer the phone in thirty years. That’s us.
Our Door Installation Services in Jupiter
Entry & Swing Doors
A front door in Jupiter has to do three jobs at once: hold its seal against wind-driven rain, stand up to salt air without corroding, and meet Florida Product Approval impact standards if you’re replacing a full door assembly. We install impact-rated entry systems from PGT and CGI, set in marine-grade finishes with stainless steel hardware. Single-panel fiberglass and steel doors with proper threshold pans are our standard recommendation for Jupiter’s CBS homes, where original aluminum swing doors flex under wind load and let the elements straight into the jamb.

Double & French Doors
French doors in Jupiter fail most often at the center seam and the sill pan. The 62 inches of annual rain we get here finds any gap in flashing and works on the subfloor for years before anyone sees rot. We rebuild openings with butyl-taped jambs, sloped sill pans, and compression weatherstripping that closes the center seam tight. If you’re near the Intracoastal or the inlet, we spec hot-dip galvanized or stainless hinges and marine-grade thresholds as standard, not as an upgrade line-item. The salt air here demands it.

Storm Doors
A storm door in Jupiter is not a decorative screen. It’s a first line of defense on older homes where the primary door is not impact-rated. We install vented and full-view storm doors that carry Florida Product Approval ratings, set in frames that won’t pit and flake within a decade. For homes on the west side of A1A or along the Loxahatchee, we use aluminum frames with a marine finish and stainless closer hardware. A big-box storm door with plated hardware will look rusted out in two seasons here.

Bifold & Folding Doors
Folding door systems are popular in Jupiter’s newer construction, especially in Abacoa and along the waterfront communities. The weak point is always the track, and in Jupiter the track is fighting salt from both sides. We-level every folding door run on a reinforced subfloor and spec stainless steel tracks and carriers rated for continuous coastal exposure. A folding door that drags or jumps the track is usually a symptom of a cheap inland-spec system installed in a marine environment. We see it regularly on 1990s and 2000s builds near the Intracoastal.

Trusted Brands We Service in Jupiter
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. When we quote a Jupiter door job, we lay the manufacturer options side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying and what the warranty actually covers. Both layers get registered in writing before we leave your driveway. Local crews carry the parts and hardware Jupiter homes need most, stainless rollers, marine-grade thresholds, impact-rated sweeps, and replacement hinges for the old aluminum frames that dominate our CBS housing stock.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Jupiter Homes
- Seized slider tracks near the Inlet and Intracoastal. Jupiter’s rare geography puts door hardware in salt-laden air from the Atlantic on one side and the Intracoastal on the other. A standard aluminum sliding glass door track in a 1990s Admirals Cove home can seize within 15 years. The same track 10 miles inland in Palm Beach Gardens lasts twice as long. That’s not bad luck, that’s chemistry.
- Rotted subfloors under 1970s and 1980s door pans. The original sill flashing on Jupiter’s CBS-era homes was never designed for 62 inches of annual rainfall. Water gets past the pan, sits against the slab edge, and works its way into wood under the door. By the time the floor feels soft, the repair bill has grown. We catch it early when we pull the door because we check, every time, before setting the new unit.
- Pitted and flaking aluminum frames on north-facing exposures. North-facing doors in Jupiter catch both ocean and Intracoastal spray, and 1980s aluminum frames pit badly within a decade. The flaking isn’t just cosmetic; it means the frame’s structural skin is failing, and your weatherseal is losing its grip. We replace with marine-grade or impact-rated aluminum, never with the same thin original material.
- Fogged insulated glass in high-humidity months. Jupiter’s humidity pushes moisture into any door lite where the seal has begun to let go. Once a seal fails, the insulated glass unit fogs from the inside and cannot be wiped clean. The fix is replacing the glass unit, and if the frame is 25 years old and pitted, it’s often smarter to replace the whole door. We’ll tell you straight which path makes sense for your home.
Pricing for Door Installation in Jupiter, FL
Entry door installation in Jupiter typically runs $1,800 to $4,500 for a standard single door, and $3,200 to $7,500 for an impact-rated unit with a full frame replacement. Double French doors range from $3,500 to $8,000, and folding door systems start around $6,000 and can exceed $12,000 on larger openings. Storm doors run $800 to $2,200 installed.
The gap between a coastal-spec and an inland-spec door on a Jupiter job is usually $800 to $1,500 on entry doors, and more on sliders and folding systems. That gap pays for stainless hardware, marine-grade finishes, sealed joints, and proper flashing. Skipping it saves money on day one and spends it back in full by year ten, when the pitted frame and seized hardware force a second replacement. The cheap spec is the expensive one here. We quote both numbers honestly so you can decide with your eyes open. Call (772) 794-8169 for a free line-item estimate on your Jupiter door.
The Double-Salt Problem Jupiter Door Buyers Need to Understand
Jupiter sits where the Loxahatchee River meets the Atlantic at the Jupiter Inlet, and that geography punishes door hardware more than any other place we work in Palm Beach County. Properties in the neighborhoods east of US-1 and along the Intracoastal get salt spray from the ocean and from the waterway. A door on a north-facing wall in Admirals Cove or Jupiter Inlet Colony takes both. That’s why a standard aluminum sliding door track that would last 25 years in a landlocked Florida suburb seizes in 15 here. It’s why plated hinges rust through, why bottom rails pit and flake, why door pans corrode from underneath.
The fix is not a special coating or a maintenance routine you’ll forget by February. The fix is specifying the right materials from the start. We use PGT and CGI impact-rated doors with stainless steel rollers, hot-dip galvanized or stainless hinges, marine-grade thresholds, and compression gaskets that close salt air out instead of trapping it against the metal. On a recent Admirals Cove job, we pulled a corroded 1990s aluminum slider after the bottom track had rotted through and the rollers seized. Our crew pulled the original jamb, re-flashed the rough opening with butyl tape, and installed an impact-rated ViewLux SGD with stainless rollers and a marine-grade finish. The client had already been told by a handyman to just replace the rollers. The track itself was beyond salvage. The new unit is rated for the 160+ mph wind zone and built for the salt load this house actually carries.
If you own a Jupiter home and you’re not right on the water, the inland-spec door still costs you. The salt air travels farther than people think, and the humidity is everywhere. We price both specs on every quote so you can see the difference in dollars. Most of our Jupiter customers choose the coastal spec. The ones who don’t usually call us back in a decade asking why their door looks twenty years older than the neighbor’s.
We Also Serve Cities Near Jupiter
Our crews work throughout northern Palm Beach County and the broader Door Installation market, including Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, and Palm Beach. The salt air behaves differently in each of those places, and we spec materials accordingly. Wherever you are, the standard holds: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.

FAQs - Door Installation in Jupiter
Admirals Cove sits between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal, meaning door hardware there is exposed to salt air from two directions nearly year-round. A standard aluminum track in that environment pits and seizes within 15 years, roughly half the life you’d get 10 miles inland where only rainfall and humidity are at work. We replace with stainless steel track systems and marine-grade rollers, and we reinforce the opening so the new unit is rated for the same 160+ mph wind zone the rest of the home must meet. Call (772) 794-8169 and we’ll inspect your track before it fails completely.
Yes, if the door is a full replacement, Florida code requires any new door in Jupiter to carry Florida Product Approval impact ratings. If your windows are already impact-rated but your front door is a pre-2004 single-pane unit, that door is now the weakest opening in your wind envelope. An impact-rated entry door closes that gap, and it protects the most-used opening in your home. We’ll quote PGT and CGI side by side so you can see the exact ratings and warranties in writing.
Fogging comes from a failed seal on the insulated glass unit. In Jupiter’s humidity, moisture gets pulled into the space between the panes once the seal lets go, and that fog is inside the unit, not on the surface. It cannot be wiped clean. Replacing the glass unit is the fix, and if the frame is original to a 1970s or 1980s home, it often makes more sense to replace the entire door with a modern impact-rated unit. We’ll tell you which option is the better investment for your specific door.
Stainless steel. Grade 304 stainless will last decades in Jupiter’s double-salt environment, while brass and plated steel hardware corrode quickly, especially on north-facing doors that catch both ocean and Intracoastal spray. We spec stainless hinges, stainless rollers, and stainless or marine-grade closer hardware on every Jupiter install. The price difference is real, and so is the difference in what your door looks like in ten years.
Yes, and the math is straightforward. An inland-spec door saves $800 to $1,500 upfront on most Jupiter jobs, but the pitted aluminum frame, corroded hardware, and failing seals start costing you within a decade, and you’re buying another door while the neighbor who spent the extra thousand is still on the first one. Jupiter’s salt air doesn’t stop at the waterline. We price both specs honestly on every quote so you can make the call with the real numbers in front of you. Call (772) 794-8169 for a free estimate.
