Door Installation in Sunrise - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Sunrise

Door installation in Sunrise usually runs $800-$4,200 for a standard entry door and $2,400-$7,800 for a full impact-rated replacement with structural work, and most jobs we handle west of Nob Hill Road require wind-mitigation upgrades that a permit inspector will flag. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and we’ve been opening up 1970s concrete-block walls long enough to know what’s behind them before the drywall comes down. Call (863) 208-5172 to schedule a free estimate, and a uniformed, background-checked technician will measure your opening twice and quote your options on paper.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Door Installation Company

Sunrise homeowners call us because we’ve spent decades working on the exact housing stock this city is built from: concrete-block homes from the 1960s through the 1980s, low-rise condos in communities like Sunrise Lakes, and original door openings that were framed with undersized headers and failed flashing tape. We know what the permit inspector will flag before the inspector arrives. That’s not a sales line. It’s what happens when a company has been doing this long enough to see the same three failure modes behind every original jamb in the city.

Our Sunrise customers consistently tell us the same thing: the technician showed up when we said, explained the allowance before cutting, and registered both warranty layers before the truck left the driveway. That’s the Keystone Standard, and it’s written into every contract we sign. Led by Dale Kessler, TruePane has served local communities since 2008 through a heritage of craft and community commitment. We are not the cheapest bid. We are the last call a homeowner needs to make on a door.

Review counts and star ratings matter less than a homeowner in Sunrise Lakes checking whether we’ll still answer the phone in ten years. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail tree, no callback form, no regional call center. When your HOA sends a wind-mitigation notice and your insurance renewal is due in forty-five days, you don’t have time for a company that screens calls.

Our Door Installation Services in Sunrise

Every Door Installation job we do in Sunrise starts with the opening, not the door. That’s the difference between a company that hangs a slab and one that fixes what the original builder left behind. Here’s what we handle most often:

Entry & Swing Doors

A front entry door on a 1970s Sunrise concrete-block home is often the only opening on the western elevation, which means it takes the full unobstructed wind load off the Everglades corridor. Sunrise homes west of Nob Hill Road sit at the western edge of Broward County with no developed urban buffer, so the wind-load requirement on that entry door is measurably stricter than in eastern Broward cities. We frame and anchor accordingly, and we quote the impact-rated glazing separately so you see exactly what the code-compliant option costs before you sign.

Double & French Doors

Double French doors in Sunrise are common on the rear elevation facing the back patio or pool deck, and they’re where we most often find warped undersized headers hidden above the opening in concrete-block walls. Once drywall is open and the permit inspector flags the header, you need a structural retrofit before the new door can be hung. We write that allowance into the contract upfront, so the number you approve is the number you pay. No surprise line items after the wall is open.

Storm Doors

A storm door in Sunrise is not a cosmetic addition. With persistent South Florida UV intensity and salt-laden humidity degrading weatherstripping, aluminum frames, and seals faster than in any temperate market, a properly installed storm door extends the life of the primary entry door behind it. We install storm doors the same way we install every other opening: measured twice, anchored to a sound jamb, and warranted in writing.

Pivot Doors

Pivot doors on custom Sunrise builds require a level of framing precision that most standard door rough openings in 1970s planned communities simply don’t have. The pivot hinge transfers the entire weight of the slab to the floor and header, so the structural load is different from a traditional hinged door. We’ll tell you honestly whether your existing opening can handle a pivot system or whether the retrofit cost makes a standard swing door the smarter choice for your home.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise

TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, which means we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave your Sunrise driveway. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying, not a salesman’s verbal summary. For Sunrise homes needing impact-rated doors to satisfy a Broward wind-mitigation inspection, we typically recommend PGT or CGI for their track record in South Florida’s wind-load environment. We’ll show you the numbers and let you decide.

Common Door Installation Problems We See in Sunrise Homes

After years serving local communities and a second-generation glazier’s understanding of what the original builders left behind, here’s what we find when we open a Sunrise wall:

• Failed flashing tape behind the jamb. Original 1970s door openings in Sunrise were sealed with tape that was never meant to survive four decades of South Florida humidity. Water intrusion behind the jamb is often hidden until the slab is exposed and the permit inspector flags the rot.
• Undersized headers over sliding glass doors. In concrete-block walls, the header carries roof load across the opening. Builders in the 1970s frequently framed these too small, and once drywall is open, the inspector requires a structural retrofit before we can hang the new door.
• Jalousie-era panels that no longer meet underwriting standards. A 1970s jalousie door panel essentially cannot be insured under current Broward wind-mitigation guidelines. The carrier doesn’t just recommend replacement; they make it a condition of renewal.
• Fused aluminum frames from salt-laden humidity. In Sunrise Lakes and similar communities, we regularly remove sliding glass doors where the aluminum frame has corroded and fused to the jamb after decades of exposure. That’s not a removal we rush, because the jamb behind it is usually carrying damage we need to see clearly.
