AfterFast, Reliable Door Installation Across North Palm Beach
Door installation in North Palm Beach is rarely a simple slab swap, and it’s almost never a quick handyman fix. Most homes here were built between 1955 and 1980, which means original aluminum sliders, unrated entry doors, and jalousie hardware that predates every current Florida Building Code wind standard. We’ve been working in this village long enough to know that a door on an Intracoastal-facing lot has a completely different life than the same door ten miles inland. When you call TruePane Windows & Doors at (772) 794-8169, you’ll get a straight answer about what your opening actually needs, what the code requires, and what it will cost before any work begins.
Our Door Installation crew knows the difference between a 1962 CBS ranch on Lighthouse Drive and a newer stucco build in the village’s eastern section. That matters when you’re pulling a permit through the village and the inspector wants to see proper anchoring, not just a pretty trim job.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is North Palm Beach’s Preferred Door Installation Company
TruePane was founded by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler, and the rule on the whiteboard has never changed: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That governs every door we set in North Palm Beach, whether it’s a steel-reinforced entry door or a 12-foot impact-rated slider on a canal front lot. We’re an authorized installer for manufacturers including, PGT, CGI, and we quote lines side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying and why one product costs more than another.
Most jobs in North Palm Beach are completed in a single visit, and we register both warranty layers, the manufacturer’s and the workmanship coverage, in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s backed by our Done Right Promise. If it isn’t done right, we make it right, no paperwork fights, no arguing. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When a door won’t latch or a slider is off its track two days before a named storm, you don’t get a voicemail tree.
Our Door Installation Services in North Palm Beach
Entry & Swing Doors
Entry doors in North Palm Beach take the brunt of southeast prevailing wind and salt spray, especially on canal and Intracoastal-facing lots. We install pre-hung, properly anchored entry systems rated for the village’s Wind-Borne Debris requirements, with stainless hinges and sealed thresholds that won’t seize after two seasons. A basic pre-hung entry door replacement in North Palm Beach typically runs $1,400 to $3,200 depending on slab material and impact rating. If the original rough opening was never tied to the CBS block with code-required anchors, which we see constantly in 1955-1980 builds, we frame it out correctly before the new jamb goes in.
Impact-Rated Sliding Glass Doors
The aluminum single-pane sliders on older North Palm Beach homes are the single most common door failure we replace. Salt-laden humidity seizes rollers, corrodes sill tracks, and fogs seals until the panel drags or binds completely. A full tear-out and replacement with a PGT or CGI impact-rated sliding glass door on a North Palm Beach home typically runs $4,500 to $9,800 depending on glass package, size, and anchor work. We pull the permit through the village, set the door with flashing tape and sill pans that keep wind-driven rain out of the wall cavity, and register both warranty layers in writing.
Double & French Doors
Double doors get more use on Florida patios and pool decks than anywhere else, and that daily cycling exposes weak hardware fast in salt air. We install double and French door systems with reinforced multi-point locks, stainless pivots, and high-cycle rollers that don’t require constant adjustment. Expect to spend $5,200 to $11,000 for a properly flashed, impact-rated double door system in North Palm Beach with the permit work included. If your existing double doors are out of square, which happens as concrete slabs settle, we’ll address the frame racking before the new slabs go in so they close on the first try and stay that way.
Pivot Doors
A pivot door is a statement on larger North Palm Beach properties, but a poorly executed pivot can become a maintenance headache fast. We install pivot systems with floor closers and stainless pivot sets from manufacturers that stand behind their hardware, plus concealed weatherstripping that actually holds up to coastal humidity. A pivot door replacement in North Palm Beach usually runs $6,500 to $14,000 depending on the custom sizing and glass configuration. These are not off-the-shelf openings, and we measure every opening twice before ordering anything.

Trusted Brands We Service in North Palm Beach
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for North Palm Beach door work we regularly quote PGT, CGI because these three have product lines genuinely engineered for Florida’s coastal corrosion and wind-debris conditions. We stock common replacement hardware and rollers for the doors already in North Palm Beach homes, including PGT and CGI parts, so a repair that doesn’t require a full tear-out can often be handled in one visit. When a product decision matters, we’ll put two or three manufacturer quotes side by side on paper, with warranty durations stated, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in North Palm Beach Homes
- Untreated steel hinges and rollers seize from salt spray. Doors facing the Intracoastal or open water commonly bind within three to five years with standard hardware. We specify stainless and marine-grade components on every coastal exposure.
- Aluminum frames corrode at the sill and jamb. On 1955-1980 CBS construction, frame-to-wall separation is common, and wind-driven rain intrudes into the wall cavity through the gap. A simple slab replacement becomes a full frame-out once the inspector sees the anchor condition.
- Older doors were never wind-rated. Many original sliders and entry doors predate the Wind-Borne Debris Region code entirely. Pulling a permit for any repair often triggers a code-mandated impact-rated replacement, which is why we scope the full job before quoting.
- Slabs settle and rack the rough opening. Concrete slabs on sandy North Palm Beach lots move over decades, and an out-of-square opening means a new door will bind. We correct the framing before setting the new unit so the latch hits clean on day one and ten years from now.

FAQs - Door Installation in North Palm Beach
The Wind-Borne Debris Region requirement applies to every opening on every elevation, not just the Intracoastal side. North Palm Beach sits in a high-wind zone where all exterior doors must be impact-rated or protected by approved storm panels, regardless of which way the door faces. When we pull a permit for any door replacement on a pre-1980 home, the building department expects to see impact-rated product on the scope. If you’re unsure whether your existing doors meet the current code, call (772) 794-8169 and we’ll tell you what the inspector will look for.
You can replace an insulated glass unit on some doors, but on a North Palm Beach home where the door was installed before impact standards existed, a glass-only replacement doesn’t address the frame corrosion, failed anchors, or wind-rating deficiency. In most cases, the cost of a new sealed unit plus the labor to install it is 70-80% of a full impact-rated replacement, and the old door still won’t pass code or satisfy your insurer. We’ll give you both numbers on paper and you can decide. Call (772) 794-8169 for an exact quote on your opening.
North Palm Beach issues its own building permits through the village, so a door replacement permit comes from the village building department, not the county. Door replacements that change the opening size, the door rating, or the anchoring require a permit and inspection. Swapping a screen door or hardware does not. We pull every permit for our North Palm Beach door work, schedule the inspection, and don’t call the job done until the inspector signs off. Call (772) 794-8169 and we’ll walk you through what your specific project triggers.
Plan on three to six weeks from signed quote to a finished, inspected door in North Palm Beach. Custom impact-rated product from PGT, CGI, or Andersen takes two to four weeks to fabricate, and village permit review typically adds three to five business days. The actual tear-out and installation usually happens in a single day, sometimes two if the rough opening needs anchor correction. We’ll give you a realistic schedule when we scope the job, and we’ll be there when we say. Call (772) 794-8169 to get your timeline started.
Yes. Marine-grade stainless steel hardware, factory-finished aluminum frames with proper anodizing or powder coating from PGT or CGI, and vinyl or fiberglass slab options that don’t corrode all outperform standard builder-grade aluminum in Intracoastal salt exposure. The frame material is less important than the hardware spec and the flashing detail. Untreated steel hinges fail in three years here. We specify hardware and sealants for coastal conditions on every North Palm Beach job. Call (772) 794-8169 and we’ll explain what works and what won’t survive two summers.
