Hollywood’s coastal location means sliding and patio doors here face salt air, hurricane exposure, and the thermal stress of south Florida’s wet season. We’ve measured openings in Lake Forest, Emerald Hills, and Hollywood Hills where the original builder-grade vinyl frames had warped from UV exposure, and we’ve replaced impact-rated units in Harbor Islands where the previous installation failed to meet the Florida Building Code’s wind-borne debris requirements. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before arrival - Haven Clause 3, Verified Crews.

We don’t do urgency theatre. We do documented evidence: the measured survey you keep, the written scope that matches it, and the photo record you receive when the job is finished. That’s been the Haven Standard since 2012.

What Our Sliding & Patio Doors Service Includes

Patio Doors

Patio doors are the primary access point between your living space and outdoor area, typically configured as sliding, swinging, or multi-panel systems. In Hollywood, we see a lot of 1980s and 1990s homes in neighborhoods like Hollywood Lakes and Royal Poinciana with original aluminum-framed patio doors that have lost their weatherstripping and no longer seal against driving rain. We measure the rough opening, assess the structural header, and specify replacement units from our eight manufacturer lines based on your performance requirements and budget - not based on what we have in stock.

Impact Sliding Glass Doors

Impact sliding glass doors are engineered to withstand wind-borne debris during hurricane events and are required by the Florida Building Code in Hollywood’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. We’ve installed impact-rated sliding systems from PGT and CGI in homes throughout eastern Hollywood where the previous non-impact doors represented both a code violation and an insurance risk. Every impact door we specify carries a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance or Florida Product Approval, and we document the rating label in your photo record.

Sliding Glass Door Replacement

Sliding glass door replacement becomes necessary when the operating hardware fails, the insulated glass unit loses its seal, or the frame itself degrades beyond repair. In Hollywood’s condo market, particularly along the Intracoastal and in buildings like those on South Ocean Drive, we’ve replaced dozens of sliding glass door systems where the original rollers had seized and tenants were lifting the panels to operate them. Our replacement process includes a measured survey of the existing rough opening, verification of the structural capacity for the new unit’s weight, and a written price that accounts for disposal, permits, and final inspection.

Impact French Patio Doors

Impact French patio doors combine the traditional divided-light aesthetic with hurricane-rated engineering, typically using laminated glass and reinforced stile-and-rail construction. We’ve specified Therma-Tru and ViewLux impact French systems for Hollywood homeowners in West Lake and Oakridge who wanted the look of divided lights without sacrificing code compliance. The installation requires precise shimming and fastening to maintain the door’s structural rating, and we photograph every anchor point for your documented record.

Screen Door Installation

Screen door installation for sliding and patio systems includes both replacement of existing screen panels and addition of retractable or sliding screen systems to doors that previously had none. In Hollywood’s older ranch homes, particularly in areas like Park East and Hillcrest, we regularly install matching screen panels for new sliding glass door replacements, as well as standalone retractable screens for French and swinging patio doors. We measure the screen track or mounting surface and specify corrosion-resistant hardware appropriate for coastal exposure.

Brands We Service for Sliding & Patio Doors

We work with eight manufacturer lines, specified by what your opening requires, not by what is in stock. For Plantation Sliding & Patio Doors and Hollywood, we regularly source from ES Windows, whose thermally broken aluminum systems we’ve installed in hundreds of coastal properties from Hollywood Beach to the historic districts. Their sliding door configurations offer U-factors as low as 0.30 and SHGC ratings that matter when your west-facing patio door takes afternoon sun. We’ve also specified ECO Window Systems for homeowners prioritizing energy performance, particularly in newer construction in Hollywood where HERS ratings and utility rebates are part of the project scope. Their multi-point locking hardware and warm-edge spacer technology address the condensation issues we see in air-conditioned homes during humid months.

Mr-Glass and Therma-Tru round out our sliding and patio door offerings for Hollywood homeowners. Mr-Glass impact-rated sliding systems carry the Miami-Dade County NOA that insurance underwriters and building inspectors recognize, and we’ve installed their products in homes from Pembroke Park to Davie where code compliance documentation was required for the sale or refinance. Therma-Tru’s fiberglass patio door line offers the paintable surface and dent resistance that homeowners in active households prefer. Whether you have one of these brands or any other make, we can service, repair, or replace it - and we’ll show you the written price before any work starts.

After

Signs You Need Sliding & Patio Doors Right Now

• The door sticks, jumps, or requires force to operate. This usually indicates roller wear, track damage, or frame settlement. In Hollywood’s sandy soils, particularly in neighborhoods like Hollywood Hills and Emerald Hills, we’ve found that foundation movement causes the sliding panel to bind in a track that is no longer plumb. Continued force operation damages the rollers and can crack the glass.
• You feel drafts or see daylight around the frame perimeter. Weatherstripping degrades in Florida’s UV exposure, and compression seals lose their resilience. We use a smoke pencil during our measured survey to identify air infiltration paths, and we document the frame readings so you can see exactly where the seal has failed.
• Condensation appears between the glass panes. This means the insulated glass unit’s edge seal has failed and the desiccant is saturated. In Hollywood’s humidity, this condition accelerates, and the cloudy glass cannot be repaired - only replaced. We measure the visible glass dimensions and specify a replacement IGU or complete sash.
• The locking mechanism no longer engages smoothly or completely. A door that cannot be fully locked is a security risk. We see this frequently in older sliding systems where the keeper has shifted or the lock cam has worn. Our survey includes a function test of all hardware, and we specify replacement components or a complete system upgrade depending on the condition.
• Visible frame damage: corrosion, rot, or impact cracks. Aluminum frames corrode at the weep holes and bottom rails in salt-air exposure. Vinyl frames crack at the corners from thermal cycling. We photograph the damage, measure the remaining wall thickness, and specify replacement based on structural adequacy, not cosmetic cover-up.

Our Sliding & Patio Doors Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Schedule your measured survey. Call (754) 714-7309 and speak with a live person - no voicemail queue, no callback window. We’ll schedule a time that works for your schedule, and you’ll receive a confirmation with your technician’s name and license number.
2. 2
   On-site measured survey and documentation. Our technician arrives in uniform, verifies identity by license number, and conducts a measured survey of your existing opening. We record rough opening dimensions, structural header condition, floor level, and sightline measurements. You keep a copy of this survey. We use a smoke pencil for air infiltration detection and a moisture meter when frame rot is suspected.
3. 3
   Written scope and fixed price. Haven Clause 1: the measurement and the quote are the same document. Your written scope specifies the product line, performance ratings, installation details, permit requirements, and total price. This price does not change once work starts. No change orders, no surprises.
4. 4
   Permit application and scheduling. For replacement projects in Hollywood that involve structural modification or impact-rated products, we pull the permit and schedule inspection. We handle the paperwork; you receive the approved permit card and inspection schedule. Our permit history with the City of Hollywood’s Building Department means we know their documentation requirements and inspection lead times.
5. 5
   Installation, inspection, and documented completion. Our crew installs to manufacturer specifications and the Florida Building Code, with photograph documentation of anchor points, flashing details, and final operation. The city inspector signs off, and you receive your photo record, warranty documentation, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise - written into the Haven Standard, not a verbal assurance.
