AfterFast, Reliable Door Installation Across Boca Del Mar
A new entry door in Boca Del Mar typically runs $1,200 to $4,800 installed, while a hurricane-rated front door starts around $2,800 and can reach $7,500 for custom sizes with premium finishes. Most standard replacements go in same-day once the slab is on site; custom or impact-rated doors take four to six weeks from order to install. If you’re standing in a doorway right now with a frame that’s pitting, call Ed Winslow’s team at (844) 901-4551 and we’ll have a real person give you honest numbers before the first tool comes off the truck.
We work all through ZIP code 33433, from the subdivisions off Powerline Road to the winding streets east of Judge Winikoff Road. Salt air here doesn’t age doors the way it does inland. It attacks them. That’s the difference between a crew that works Boca Del Mar every week and one that just happens to have a truck nearby.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Boca Del Mar’s Preferred Door Installation Company
Ed Winslow’s name is on the business and on every job we do. Since 2011, we’ve been the company Boca Del Mar homeowners call when a door has to survive a hurricane, not just close. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, so when the truck pulls up, you know exactly who’s walking to your door. And when you call at any hour, a live person answers. No voicemail loops, no call centers, and no ticket numbers.
The Done Right Promise means if it’s not done right, we make it right. A lasting standard of accountability that no national chain will ever match. Boca Del Mar customers hold us to that promise because they’ve been burned by vague estimates and no-show crews before. We publish our address and license number. We hand you a written line-item quote before work starts. We don’t change the price when the job gets hard.
Because dispatch runs from our South Florida office just down the line, response time to Boca Del Mar is measured in minutes, not days. And because we’re authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, and five other premium brands, we can match the right product approval to Palm Beach County’s wind requirements without guesswork. That’s the part that keeps your insurance company from sending a non-renewal letter.
Our Door Installation Services in Boca Del Mar
Entry Doors
Most Boca Del Mar homes were built between 1973 and 1988, which means the builder-grade entry doors are now forty to fifty years old. Hollow-core slabs, thin weatherstripping, and frames that have pulled away from the CBS block. We replace them with solid-core or insulated doors, set tight in new frames, with thresholds that actually seal against South Florida rain. A standard entry door replacement in Boca Del Mar runs $1,200 to $3,500.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
This is the job we do most in Boca Del Mar, and for good reason. Homes here sit in Palm Beach County’s wind speed design zone, and insurers have gotten aggressive about non-renewing policies on homes with original doors that lack impact-rated glazing under Florida Statute 627.0629. We install impact-rated doors from PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru that carry a Florida Product Approval number matched to the county’s design wind speed, not just a Miami-Dade NOA. Expect $2,800 to $7,500 depending on size, glazing package, and hardware.
French & Double Doors
French doors in Boca Del Mar fail in predictable ways: the active slab drags, the astragal warps, and the center seal lets water into the channel. Salt air accelerates every one of those failures. We replace and retrofit French and double doors with reinforced frames, stainless hinges, and impact glazing where needed. A standard French door replacement here runs $3,000 to $6,500 installed. If it’s an original aluminum pair from the 1980s, the surrounding framing usually needs attention too.
Replacement Doors
Sometimes the opening is fine and the door itself is done. We pull the old slab, inspect the jamb for rot or corrosion, and set the new door in a shimmed, squared opening. For Boca Del Mar’s CBS construction, that often means anchoring with stainless fasteners instead of the zinc hardware that was original to the house. Replacement slabs run $700 to $2,800, with the full frame replacement at the higher end.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Del Mar

For Boca Del Mar specifically, we keep the focus on CGI and PGT impact lines, plus Therma-Tru for non-impact entry door replacements.

Door Installation is our specialty, and we stock the common replacement components so your Boca Del Mar job isn’t waiting on a warehouse in another state.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Boca Del Mar Homes
- Salt-pitted aluminum frames: Homes three to five miles from the Atlantic get constant salt-laden air, and the original aluminum door frames oxidize and pit. The hinges bind, the slab drags, and eventually the lockset no longer aligns with the strike plate. Some doors get so seized that removal strips the jamb screws.
- Insurer non-renewal for non-impact doors: Under Florida Statute 627.0629, carriers can decline renewal if the home’s original doors don’t meet current wind-mitigation standards. We get calls from Boca Del Mar homeowners holding a non-renewal letter and a deadline, often in the middle of hurricane season.
- Wrong product approvals: We regularly see doors installed by crews from Broward County that carry only a Miami-Dade NOA. Palm Beach County requires a Florida Product Approval number rated to its specific design wind speed. That door fails inspection. We check the numbers before we order.
- UV-degraded weatherstripping: The same South Florida sun that bakes your driveway destroys the butyl and rubber weatherstripping on forty-year-old doors. Once that seal fails, moisture creeps into the CBS wall cavity around the door jamb, and you get efflorescence, paint bubbling, and eventually frame rot if the original wood bucks were never replaced.

Florida Pays You Back
Florida has real money on the table for Boca Del Mar homeowners doing impact-rated door work. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 in qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades for eligible households. The state sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors, so you’re not paying tax on the product. The federal 25C energy credit offers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient doors. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs about $75 to $150, many carriers apply a windstorm-premium credit averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion. We can’t guarantee what your carrier will approve, but we can make sure your doors carry the documentation those programs look for.
One more thing worth knowing: impact doors beat shutters every time in Boca Del Mar. Shutters protect the opening only when someone remembers to hang them before the storm. Impact-rated doors protect your home 24/7/365 without a single panel to store or a bracket to maintain. When a tropical system spins up fast off Palm Beach County, the house with impact doors is already protected. The house with shutters is hoping someone is home to close up.

FAQs — Door Installation in Boca Del Mar
Florida Statute 627.0629 lets carriers decline renewal when a home’s wind-mitigation features don’t meet current standards, and homes built in Boca Del Mar before the mid-1990s almost universally fail that review. Your original door may open and close fine, but it lacks impact-rated glazing and a Florida Product Approval rating matched to Palm Beach County’s design wind speed. The fix is an impact-rated replacement door, and the insurer usually wants documentation. We handle that paperwork. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll explain what your carrier needs to see.
Only if that door also carries a Florida Product Approval number rated to Palm Beach County’s specific design wind speed. Miami-Dade NOA alone is not sufficient here. Boca Del Mar is unincorporated, so every permit runs through Palm Beach County Building Division, and the inspectors check the product approval against the county’s wind zone. We’ve had to pull doors that other crews installed because they assumed a Broward approval crossed the line unchanged. It doesn’t. We confirm the numbers before we order anything.
Sitting three to five miles inland from the Atlantic, Boca Del Mar gets constant salt-laden air that oxidizes aluminum frames, pits the metal, and causes hinges to bind. The door slab starts to drag against the jamb, then the lockset stops aligning with the strike plate. Over a decade or two, the frame is so corroded that the jamb screws seize and snap during removal. That’s why we specify stainless steel hardware and marine-grade flashing on every exterior door we install in 33433. The original zinc hardware that came with the house was never meant for this environment.
Any door brand can be compliant as long as it carries a Florida Product Approval number matching the opening’s design pressure and the county’s wind speed zone. In practice, we install PGT, CGI, and Therma-Tru impact products in Boca Del Mar because their engineering packages match the county’s requirements cleanly, and their warranty support is dependable. We’re authorized installers for those brands, which matters when it’s time to file a claim or order a replacement part. If you have a specific brand in mind, call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll check the approval numbers before you spend a dime.
For a straightforward like-for-size door replacement with an approved product, Palm Beach County Building Division typically turns the permit in one to two weeks. Impact-rated retrofits may require additional documentation, and if the opening is being enlarged, engineering is involved. We pull all permits ourselves and coordinate the inspections. If your job is an emergency, we can often get an expedited review. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll give you a realistic timeline for your specific door.
