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

Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Sunrise

Door installation in Sunrise, FL means working inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Every exterior door we hang here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for impact resistance and pass a Broward County permitted inspection before the job is done. That’s not a preference. That’s code. If you’re in a 1960s or 1970s CBS home around Welleby or Springtree, chances are that original jalousie or aluminum sliding door is nowhere near compliant, and your insurance company knows it. TruePane has replaced thousands of doors across Sunrise, and we handle the permit, the NOA paperwork, and the inspection walkthrough on every install. Call (954) 280-4413 to talk to a live person about your door, your opening, and what it’ll take to get it right.

Call (954) 280-4413

We’re not the cheapest bid in Sunrise. We’re the last call you should need to make on a door. Dale Kessler started this company in 2008 on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We still run every Sunrise job by that rule.

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

Sunrise homeowners tend to live in their houses for twenty, thirty years. They remember the contractor who left a sliding door that binds in July and a fogged seal by Thanksgiving. That’s who we replace more than the door. Our crews have been in and out of homes across Sunrise long enough to know exactly what’s behind a 1970s stucco wall before we open it: undersized framing, rotted jambs, missing flashing tape, unpermitted work from a previous owner. We plan for what’s there, not what should be there.

Every technician who works in Sunrise is background-checked, uniformed, and trained to measure every opening twice before ordering anything. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, so you see the actual doors and the actual numbers before you commit. No surprise line items after the wall is open. Any change gets written, priced, and approved by you in writing before we touch it. That’s been our standard since 2008 of community service across South Florida, and it’s why Sunrise customers call us back when the next door goes.

Sunrise dispatches crews directly from our South Florida office, and a live person answers our phone 24 hours a day. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form. When you call (954) 280-4413, you reach a person who can schedule your estimate.

Our Door Installation Services in Sunrise

TruePane handles the full range of Door Installation work in Sunrise, from single entry doors to full jalousie-to-impact conversions on 1970s ranch homes. Here’s what we do most often.

Entry & Swing Doors

Entry doors in Sunrise take a beating from afternoon convective storms that drive rain sideways into east-facing openings. We install impact-rated entry and swing doors with full perimeter flashing and proper sill pans, not just a bead of caulk. Most entry door replacements in Sunrise run between $1,800 and $4,200 installed, depending on door width, glass package, and whether the existing frame is salvageable or needs new treated jambs. We’ll tell you which before we start.

Double & French Doors

French doors are common in the low-rise condo communities and larger ranch homes around Sunrise Lakes and the communities east of Nob Hill Road. The failure pattern we see most is water intrusion at the center meeting stile, where the original aluminum threshold has worn down or the flashing was never installed correctly. Our Double and French door installs in Sunrise typically run $3,500 to $7,800, with the higher end reflecting impact-rated glazing and full opening repair where rot has set in around the slab.

Bifold & Folding Doors

Bifold doors in Sunrise are a popular retrofit for lakefront homes and patio conversions, but they demand a perfectly level track and a header that can carry the load. Older CBS homes weren’t always framed with that in mind. We inspect the header and the finished floor for deflection before quoting, and we won’t sell a bifold system that the structure can’t hold. Expect $6,000 to $12,000 for a full impact-rated bifold or folding door installation in Sunrise, with custom widths pushing higher depending on the manufacturer line.

Pivot Doors

Pivot doors are showing up more often in the newer sections of Sunrise, particularly in modern additions around Parc Village and the gated communities off Sunrise Lakes Boulevard. A pivot door shifts the load point away from traditional hinges, which means the header and floor pivot assembly have to be set dead level. We’ve fixed pivot doors installed by other companies that sagged within a year because they skipped that step. Our pivot door installs in Sunrise run $4,500 to $9,500, and we register both warranty layers before we leave the driveway.

Jalousie-to-Impact Conversions

Here’s what makes Sunrise different from Weston or Coral Springs: we still find original jalousie doors in 1960s and 1970s HOA communities all over this city. Jalousie units are now prohibited from new installation under the Florida Building Code, rated for virtually zero wind resistance, and they leak air through every glass louver. Replacing one is not a like-for-like swap. It’s a full opening conversion that often requires reframing, new flashing, and a structural inspection before the impact-rated door can be set. We do this work routinely here because few other cities have this volume of jalousie stock left.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise

TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. What matters in Sunrise specifically is that we know which lines carry current Miami-Dade NOA listings and which glazing packages clear Broward County’s impact requirements in the first inspection. We keep local stock access for weather-sealing components, thresholds, and hardware so a Sunrise door repair or adjustment doesn’t wait on a backorder from out of state. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper because you should see what CGI costs against what ES Windows costs before you decide.

Common Door Installation Problems We See in Sunrise Homes

Sunrise’s housing stock dates mostly from 1961 through the late 1980s, which means most of the doors we’re called to replace have been in place for thirty to fifty years. Here’s what we find behind them:

• Rotted or undersized framing behind original aluminum doors. The concrete block and stucco construction common in Sunrise holds the house up fine, but the wood framing around door openings was often installed without proper moisture protection. After decades of driven rain from intense afternoon storms, the jambs and header can be soft enough to push a screwdriver through. We don’t know it’s there until the old door comes out. We write a change order for new treated framing, get your approval in writing, and rebuild the opening before the new door goes in.
• Failed waterproofing at the sill and jamb. Sunrise sits in the inland flatlands with no coastal buffer, so when hurricane bands or summer convection storms hit, rain drives straight into door openings. Original builders in the 1960s and 1970s often set the sill pan incorrectly or skipped it entirely. The result is a rotted subfloor edge where the carpet or tile meets the door threshold. We fix the waterproofing before we hang the new door, because a new impact door over a rotted sill is a warranty claim waiting to happen.
• Missing anchor straps and unpermitted prior work. Once the opening is exposed, the inspection can flag things that have nothing to do with the door you asked for: missing anchor straps tying the frame to the block, non-impact glazing in an adjacent sidelight, or a previous owner’s unpermitted work that’s now in the inspection path. We can’t pretend the inspector won’t see it. We bring it to you, price the correction, and get it done before the new door is set, so the inspection passes the first time.
• Jalousie doors that leak air and water through every louver. Sunrise has a large stock of original jalousie doors still in daily use, and they’re a liability in every sense: no wind resistance, no water resistance, and no insulation value. They can’t be repaired to meet any current code. When we replace a jalousie door in Sunrise, the job is a full opening conversion, not a simple swap, and the resulting impact-rated door usually pays for itself over time through lower insurance premiums.
