Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Company
We have been fixing and replacing sliding doors in Sunrise for years, and the reason homeowners keep calling us back is simple: we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s on every job. The 90-Day Done Right Promise backs the workmanship. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s not a slogan. It’s the rule Dale Kessler keeps on the whiteboard.
Sunrise homeowners deal with a specific set of problems that a generic contractor from outside Broward will not anticipate. Our techs are background-checked and uniformed. They measure every opening twice. They quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper.

Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form.
Our Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Services in Sunrise
Impact-Rated Sliding Glass Door Replacement
This is the work we do most often in Sunrise. Broward County sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means every permitted sliding door replacement must carry Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance certification. A standard impact-rated sliding door installed in Sunrise runs $2,500-$4,500 for a 6-foot opening, depending on frame material and design pressure. We quote PGT, CGI, and ES Windows side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying. No change orders. No surprise line items.

Jalousie-to-Impact Patio Door Conversion
If your Sunrise home still has original jalousie sliding panels from the 1970s, here is the hard truth: you cannot retrofit impact glazing into a jalousie frame. The entire frame must come out, opening by opening, to pass inspection. This is not a repair. It is a code-mandated replacement. We handle the full scope: demo, new frame, laminated glass, permit coordination, and the elevation compliance check that Sunrise inspectors enforce. Typical conversion costs run $3,000-$5,500 per opening depending on width and wind zone.

HVHZ Compliance Correction for Existing Sliding Doors
Sometimes a homeowner calls us for a simple roller repair and we discover the existing door was installed before Broward adopted the HVHZ code, or it lacks the proper NOA sticker. In Sunrise, that is a common permit-application surprise. Our team reviews the elevation, checks design pressures for the opening, and brings every unit on that wall into compliance before the inspector arrives. This is where local knowledge matters. Out-of-area crews get blindsided by Broward’s enforcement posture. We expect it and plan for it.

Sliding Door Hardware and Track Repair
Salt-laden humidity and daily sun exposure in Sunrise do a number on rollers, tracks, and locking hardware. If your door binds in July or the lock sticks when the humidity spikes, we can usually fix it in one visit. Roller replacement runs $120-$250. Track realignment runs $150-$300. We keep common hardware for CWS and Mr-Glass frames on the truck, so most hardware repairs finish the same day.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We install and service sliding glass doors from more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we are an authorized installer for several that carry strong Miami-Dade NOA coverage for Sunrise homes. PGT, CGI, and ES Windows are the three we quote most often for impact-rated replacements. For homeowners who want a mid-range option without sacrificing wind-load ratings, we also quote ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass. We stock parts for these brands locally, which means faster turnaround when a latch fails or a roller wears out.
Common Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Fogged glass from seal failure. Sunrise’s year-round UV intensity and humidity accelerate seal breakdown on aging aluminum patio doors. Once the seal goes, the glass fogs between panes and cannot be repaired. You’re looking at full unit replacement, and in the HVHZ, that triggers code review.
- Jalousie sliding panels that cannot pass inspection. The 1970s jalousie frames common in older Sunrise neighborhoods are legally unrepairable under current code. You cannot add impact glazing to them. The entire frame must be replaced to pass a Sunrise building inspection.
- Oxidized aluminum frames and jammed rollers. The salt-laden air and intense sun in Sunrise corrode aluminum frames over time. Rollers seize, tracks warp, and the door binds. Some of this is repairable. Some of it is a sign the frame has reached the end of its service life.
- HOA rejections on non-compliant replacements. Newer master-planned communities in Sunrise have architectural review boards that reject any door replacement lacking large-missile impact ratings. We have seen projects stall mid-permit because the wrong unit was specified. We quote the right door the first time.

Florida Pays You Back
Florida offers real incentives for impact-rated window and door upgrades, and Sunrise homeowners can stack several of them. My Safe Florida Home matching grants provide up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, though funding cycles apply. Florida’s sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors removes the tax burden at point of sale. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. After a wind-mitigation inspection ($75-$150 in most of Broward), many homeowners see windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their policy. Programs and carriers set the final numbers. We do not promise a specific credit. We provide the documentation your insurer and the state need.
One thing worth weighing: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters mean panels to hang and store, and they only protect you when someone is home to deploy them. A properly installed impact sliding door is permanent protection. You never touch it. It works whether you’re home or three states away. That’s why most Sunrise homeowners replacing an old patio door choose impact glass.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Sunrise: What You Need to Know Before the Permit Application
Here is the information-gain hook, and it’s the thing most Sunrise homeowners do not hear until the permit is already in process: if your home has original 1970s jalousie sliding panels, that door is legally unrepairable under Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules. You cannot add impact glass to a jalousie frame. You cannot brace it. You must replace the entire unit, and in most cases, the code requirement extends to every opening on that elevation. A homeowner who calls us expecting a $300 roller repair on a 1975 jalousie door often discovers the true scope is a $3,500+ code-compliant replacement. We tell you this at the quote stage, not after the inspector flags it. That is the difference between a local operator and an out-of-area crew unfamiliar with Broward’s enforcement posture.
In the Welleby subdivision, our crew replaced a 1982 aluminum sliding patio door with a PGT impact-rated unit after the homeowner’s wind mitigation inspection flagged the single-pane glass. We removed the original jamb and sill, installed the new frame with a laminated glass interlayer, and coordinated the permit to bring every opening on that elevation up to HVHZ design pressure, all without voiding the builder warranty on the adjacent non-impact windows. The homeowner also asked about Sunrise Custom & Geometric Windows for a nearby feature wall. That job is exactly what we mean when we say we do it right the first time.

FAQs - Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Sunrise
In most cases, yes. Broward County’s HVHZ code requires every opening on a given elevation to meet current design pressure standards when a permitted replacement opens that wall. If your other doors or windows on that elevation are non-compliant, the inspector may require them to be brought up to code before signing off. We assess the full elevation during the free estimate so you’re not blindsided. Call (754) 310-3589 for an evaluation.
No. Impact glazing cannot be retrofitted into an existing non-impact aluminum frame. The glazing, the frame, and the anchoring system are engineered as a unit. A 1970s jalousie or original aluminum sliding door lacks the structural capacity to support an impact-rated laminated glass interlayer. The entire unit must be replaced. We handle the full replacement and permit coordination.
Yes, if your community has an architectural review board. Many newer master-planned communities in Sunrise require written approval before any door replacement, even impact-rated models. The HOA often has specific finish and style requirements, and they will reject non-NOA-compliant units. We provide the documentation and specifications your HOA needs, and we can work directly with your board if questions come up. Call (754) 310-3589 with your HOA’s requirements and we’ll match the right door.
Most likely, but the credit depends on your insurer and your wind-mitigation inspection results. A properly installed impact-rated sliding door with Miami-Dade NOA certification typically qualifies for windstorm-premium credits, and many Sunrise homeowners see reductions averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of the policy. We provide the NOA documentation and installation records your insurer requires. The final credit is set by the carrier, not by us.
Miami-Dade NOA is the stricter standard, and it is the one Broward County enforces within the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Florida Product Approval is a statewide baseline. A door that carries only Florida Product Approval may not pass inspection in Sunrise, depending on your elevation and design pressure requirements. We specify NOA-certified units for Sunrise jobs as standard practice. If you’re not sure which standard your current door meets, call (754) 310-3589 and we’ll check it during a free estimate.
