Impact Doors in Broward County

Broward homes

We know Broward homes

Broward runs from beachfront high-rises to inland suburbs and ranch land out west. The code is the same everywhere in the county, but the wind load on each opening isn't.

We size every door, match it to an approved product, and file the permit ourselves with whichever department covers your address. You get one written price and one crew from measure to final sign-off.

Before you sign

Choosing an impact door company in Broward

Five checks before you hire, including who files the Broward permit.

• State license

  Certified general contractor CGC-1533058. You can look it up on the Florida DBPR site.

• Permit in our name

  We file with the city, or with Broward County when the address is unincorporated, and stay on it until the permit is closed.

• Lifetime labor, original owner

  The lifetime labor warranty covers you, the original owner. It doesn't pass to a new owner if you sell.

• Insured and bonded

  General liability, workers' comp, and a bond. Condo boards often ask for the certificate, and we send it.

French and entry doors

French impact doors are hinged glass doors, single or double, and this is also how we build impact front entry doors. A single is $2,800–$4,000 installed and a double is $3,800–$7,000.

Fiberglass impact doors are hinged entry doors with a fiberglass slab, solid or with an impact glass insert, at $2,200–$5,500 installed. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

Sliding glass doors

Sliding glass impact doors have panels that slide on a track, so nothing swings into the room. A two-panel door is $2,500–$3,500 installed, plus about $600–$800 for each extra panel.

They suit patios, pool decks, and balconies. The panels overlap when open, so the full width is never clear at once.

Garage, pivot, and bifold doors

A solid impact garage door for a single or double car is $2,800–$4,200 installed. Full-glass garage doors are quoted after a free in-home measure. Garage doors don't swing.

Pivot doors are $12,000–$22,000 and bifold doors are $12,000–$20,000, varying with size and options. A pivot is one oversized panel. A bifold is a row of hinged glass panels that fold and stack to the side.

What impact doors cost in Broward

Published installed ranges: single French $2,800–$4,000, double French $3,800–$7,000, two-panel slider $2,500–$3,500, fiberglass entry $2,200–$5,500, solid garage $2,800–$4,200, pivot $12,000–$22,000, bifold $12,000–$20,000.

These are typical installed prices. Your price depends on size, glass and options, and some openings may cost more. Every home gets its own written quote.

Broward code, approvals, and permits

Every Broward address is in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Houses are designed for a 170 mph 3-second gust (Risk Category II). Each impact door needs a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or an HVHZ-rated Florida Product Approval.

Broward's code board, BORA, weighs local amendments to the Florida Building Code. Under BORA Formal Interpretation #24, a house or townhouse under 30 feet can use a sealed site plan, a plan with a sealed worst-case chart, or Broward's voluntary wind load chart.

County buildings start at Exposure C. Sites open to the water may fall under Exposure D, which raises design pressures.

In a city, we file with that city's building department. In unincorporated Broward, we file with the Broward County Building Code Division. You sign the paperwork we prepare.

Jobs over $5,000 need a recorded notice of commencement. You sign it, and we take care of the rest.

Insurance and warranty

Impact doors count as opening protection on the state's wind-mitigation form. Florida law requires residential rate filings to include discounts for wind-mitigation features. Your insurer sets the amount.

The lifetime labor warranty covers you, the original owner. It doesn't pass to a new owner if you sell.

The in-home measure is free, and the written quote is usually back within 24–48 hours.
