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

Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Sunrise

Door installation in Sunrise, FL costs $850 to $4,200 for most residential replacements, with entry doors running $1,200 to $2,800 and impact-rated sliding or French doors landing between $2,800 and $6,500. The wide range exists because Sunrise’s shifting Everglades soil means nearly every job needs a full frame-and-sash tear-out, not a quick insert. We schedule free estimates across Sunrise seven days a week, and a live person answers when you call (850) 303-7739. If you own a CBS home from the 1960s through 1980s, the rough opening in your wall is likely no longer square, and that changes the whole job.

TruePane has installed doors throughout Sunrise long enough to know which communities have the strictest HOA boards and which permit reviewers check your frame color before your wind-load rating. That local knowledge keeps your project moving instead of stalling. Our Door Installation team measures every opening twice, quotes manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and registers both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.

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

Homeowners in Sunrise call us because we show up when we say we will, and we don’t treat a door that binds in July as a mystery. Our crews have worked in Sunrise Golf Village, Welleby, and the condo corridors along University Drive, so they know the difference between a settling issue and a hinge problem. Dale Kessler founded this company on a rule that still governs every job: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That applies to door jambs, thresholds, and strike plates just as much as glass.

We’re not the cheapest bid in Sunrise, and we don’t want to be. What we offer is a written quote that matches the final bill, background-checked and uniformed technicians who respect your home, and a Done Right Promise that means exactly what it says. Every job is covered by The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, with durations stated, before we leave your driveway. If something is not right within 90 days, we make it right without paperwork fights. Our Sunrise customers have left us a strong local reputation because we’ve spent years fixing doors that other contractors installed out of plumb and out of patience.

We hire local and train apprentices into journeymen. Our technicians live in Broward, understand Sunrise permit requirements, and can usually reach your home within the same week you call. When a Sunrise HOA board asks about wind-load documentation or Florida Product Approval numbers, we have the paperwork ready before they ask.

Our Door Installation Services in Sunrise

Here is the work we do most often in Sunrise, explained the way we’d explain it standing in your driveway.

Entry & Swing Doors

Most Sunrise entry doors are original to 1960s and 1970s CBS construction, and the humidity here has not been kind to them. Wooden jambs swell, hinges sag, and the door stops latching right. We replace the entire frame and slab, re-square the rough opening with treated lumber, and install a door that closes with one finger. A typical entry door replacement in Sunrise runs $1,200 to $2,800 depending on whether you choose steel, fiberglass, or a wood door with a factory finish. In neighborhoods like Welleby where HOA rules govern door color, we match the approved palette before you place the order.

Double & French Doors

Double doors in Sunrise homes fail in a specific pattern. The active leaf gets used daily, the passive leaf stays locked, and the frame gradually twists because the house is settling underneath it. Then neither leaf aligns, and the dog pushes through a gap at the bottom. We remove both panels and the entire frame, rebuild the opening, and install a double door system that operates as one unit. French door installations in Sunrise typically run $2,800 to $5,400. Impact Windows & Doors - Sunrise versions with laminated glass and stainless steel hinges run higher, but they satisfy Broward County’s high-velocity hurricane zone requirements without separate shutters.

Bifold & Folding Doors

Sunrise homeowners with 1970s and 1980s homes often want to open a living room to a patio or a screened pool enclosure with Sliding & Patio Doors in Sunrise. Bifold and folding door systems make that possible, but they demand a perfectly level header and a floor plane that has been checked for settlement. Given Sunrise’s shifting soil, we almost always find a floor that has dropped a quarter inch or more over forty years. We level the sill, install a robust upper track, and specify stainless steel hardware because ground-level humidity eats cheap zinc rollers within a few seasons. Expect to budget $4,500 to $9,000 for a quality folding door installation in Sunrise, depending on panel count and glass package.

Storm Doors

Storm doors in Sunrise serve a different purpose than they do up north. They are not about snow; they are about letting air move through the house during the comparatively mild months while keeping bugs and humidity out. The biggest mistake we see is a homeowner buying a storm door from a big-box store, then discovering the door frame is too far out of square for the pre-hung jamb to shim properly. We fix that by rebuilding the opening first. Storm door installations in Sunrise run $450 to $1,100 including the door and all hardware. We stock parts locally so replacement closers and sweeps for Sunrise homes don’t become a two-week waiting game.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise

We install and service doors from PGT, Cgi in Sunrise, and Ply Gem, and we’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines. That matters in Sunrise because each HOA community tends to standardize on certain frame colors and grid patterns, and we can quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying. We keep common hardware, rollers, and weatherstripping for these brands stocked for quick turnaround on Sunrise service calls. If your PGT slider has started grinding, we likely have the roller assembly ready the same week you call.

Common Door Installation Problems We See in Sunrise Homes

• Sagging or stuck sliding glass doors. Decades of settlement on former Everglades wetland push frames out of square, so the door drops and grinds against its track. A quick roller swap does not fix it; the jamb needs re-squaring first.
• HOA rules clashing with Broward County impact codes. Communities like Sunrise Golf Village require specific frame colors and grid patterns, and any replacement door must also meet Florida Product Approval wind-load ratings. Contractors who ignore one half of that equation stall the permit for weeks.
• Humidity-corroded aluminum frames and hardware. Ground-level moisture from the drained wetlands pits thin-wall aluminum and seizes cheap zinc hardware. Doors become impossible to lock, and the fix is a full replacement with corrosion-resistant components.
• Swollen wooden entry jambs. Native humidity creeps into the home when weatherstripping no longer seats, and a swollen jamb compounds the problem. The door becomes hard to open in August, exactly when you keep it closed for the AC.
