AfterFast, Reliable Door Installation Across Boca Raton
Door installation in Boca Raton runs anywhere from $900 for a basic replacement slab to $6,500+ for a custom hurricane-rated entry system with decorative glass, and most standard installs are completed in a single day once your door arrives. That’s the direct answer. What shapes the number is your building’s wind zone, your HOA’s approved spec, and how close you live to the salt air off the Atlantic or the Intracoastal. Winslow Windows & Doors has been installing impact-rated entry systems, French doors, and replacement doors throughout Boca Raton’s condo corridors and waterfront neighborhoods long enough to know exactly which questions to ask before we measure. Call (844) 901-4551 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Boca Raton’s Preferred Door Installation Company
Ed Winslow put his name on this business in 2011, and that changes how we work. We’re not a national chain handing you a ticket number. We’re the company your neighbor in Boca Del Mar already called, and we answer the phone like it matters because it does. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do.
Our crews know Boca Raton’s housing stock the way only people who work in it every week can. Century Village, Boca Lago, Whisper Walk, the mid-rise towers along A1A, the gated communities west of the Turnpike. Each one has its own HOA spec, its own wind-load zone, its own quirks. We coordinate with architectural review boards before we order, not after installation day. That’s the difference between a door that gets approved and one that gets ripped out.
Every technician who steps onto a Boca Raton property is background-checked, uniformed, and carrying company ID. You’ll know who’s coming before the truck pulls up. And every job, from a single replacement door to a full building schedule, carries the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. That’s a lasting standard no big-box installer touches.
Our Door Installation Services in Boca Raton
Our Door Installation team covers the full range of residential entry work in Boca Raton, from single-unit condo replacements to custom waterfront builds. Here’s what we handle most often.
Entry Doors
A new entry door changes how your home feels the moment you walk up to it. In Boca Raton, entry doors do double duty: they’re the first impression and the first line of defense against hurricane season. We install fiberglass and steel entry systems sized correctly for your rough opening, with weatherstripping rated for South Florida humidity and hardware that doesn’t corrode after three summers. Most stock entry doors in Boca Raton run $900 to $1,800 installed, depending on material and glazing.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
East of I-95, this is the door you actually need. Palm Beach County’s HVHZ wind-load code applies to every exterior opening, and a front entry door with non-impact glazing can fail during a wind event, pressurizing your home and blowing out your roof. We install large-missile-rated and small-missile-rated entry doors from Therma-Tru, PGT, and CGI with Miami-Dade NOA approvals already in hand. A hurricane-rated entry door in Boca Raton typically runs $2,200 to $5,800, depending on size, glass area, and whether the opening is square or arched.
French & Double Doors
French doors in Boca Raton go on rooms with a view, and those rooms usually face the water or a pool. That means the doors need to handle wind pressure at elevation while still operating smoothly and sealing tight. We install impact-rated French door systems with marine-grade hardware, multi-point locks, and thermal breaks that keep the heat outside where it belongs. Custom French door systems with decorative glass in Boca Raton start around $3,500 and climb from there based on configuration and finish.
Replacement Doors
Most replacement door work we do in Boca Raton involves pulling out an original builder-grade unit from a 1970s or 1980s condo and installing something that actually meets current code. The originals are almost always single-pane glass in aluminum frames, corroded at the hinges and jamb, and nowhere close to HVHZ-compliant. Replacement doors in Boca Raton start around $900 for a basic flush slab and run to $3,000 for a full pre-hung unit with impact glazing. We handle the disposal, the trim, the threshold, and the HOA paperwork.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Raton
We’re an authorized installer for Therma-Tru, PGT, and CGI, and we stock common hardware and weatherstripping parts for Boca Raton customers so small repairs don’t turn into week-long waits. These aren’t generic imports. They’re impact-tested, Florida Product Approval-listed manufacturers whose documentation your insurer recognizes and your HOA board likely already has on file. If your building’s master spec lists a specific brand, odds are we’re already approved to install it. That saves you weeks of back-and-forth with the architectural review board.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Boca Raton Homes
We’ve pulled enough doors out of Boca Raton buildings to recognize the patterns. Here’s what we run into most often.
- Salt-air corrosion on standard hardware. East of I-95, the constant salt aerosol from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal Waterway eats standard aluminum hinges and jambs within a few years. Doors start to bind, the deadbolt stops lining up, and the frame swells. We spec marine-grade hardware and corrosion-resistant frames on every coastal install because the alternative fails, fast.
- HOA architectural review board rejections. Many Boca Raton condo associations list only one or two approved door brands and finish colors. Order first and ask permission later, and you’re looking at an unapproved installation that has to come out, often at significant cost. We pull the master spec before we order anything.
- Arched and decorative openings that don’t accept stock slabs. Older oceanfront buildings in Boca Raton have arched entryways, custom millwork surrounds, and non-standard rough openings. A stock door won’t fit, and a big-box store won’t tell you that until it’s leaning against your wall. We measure the opening and order the custom slab or full pre-hung unit so it arrives right the first time.
- Snowbird scheduling conflicts. A huge portion of Boca Raton’s door replacements happen in buildings where owners live elsewhere half the year. We build phased installation schedules around occupancy, coordinate access with building management, and document everything so the work isn’t held up waiting on approvals from an owner who’s in New York until November.
Pricing for Door Installation in Boca Raton, FL
Here’s a straight look at what door installation costs in Boca Raton right now. An entry door replacement runs $900 to $1,800 for a standard pre-hung unit, $2,200 to $5,800 for a hurricane-rated entry system with impact glazing. French and double doors run $3,500 to $8,500, depending on configuration and glass. Custom arched entry doors for older waterfront homes start around $5,000 and climb with millwork and finish. What moves the price: opening size, whether the door carries a Miami-Dade large-missile rating, hinge and hardware grade for salt-air resistance, and any HOA-required finish work. We give you a written, line-item quote before you order anything, and that number doesn’t move unless you change the spec. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule a free in-home measure and written quote.
What Door Installation Costs in Boca Raton
To anchor the ranges above: impact windows in Boca Raton generally run $800 to $1,500 per opening installed, with impact single-hung windows at $900 to $1,800 and large or custom openings at $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages run $8,000 and up depending on opening count and glazing. Doors follow similar logic: the slab is one part, but the rough opening prep, the HOA finish spec, the wind-load documentation, and the hardware grade all contribute to the installed number. A condo on the fifth floor of a mid-rise east of Federal Highway pays different wind-load costs than a ground-level unit west of the Turnpike. Floor height changes design pressure requirements, and that changes the glazing and frame. We walk you through the math during the free estimate, in writing, and we don’t pad it. No change orders after we order the unit.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida has real money on the table for impact-rated door and window upgrades, and we help Boca Raton homeowners stack them properly. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation improvements. Florida’s sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors takes the tax off the purchase. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, most carriers credit roughly 25% off the windstorm portion of your premium, with the inspection itself running $75 to $150. Exact amounts depend on your carrier, your building, and the current program terms. We provide the Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA documentation your insurer needs, prepared correctly on day one.
One comparison worth making: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters protect the opening, but you have to hang them before every storm and they do nothing for energy efficiency, noise, or daily security. Impact-rated doors and windows are permanent protection with no panels to store and no prep required when a hurricane is three days out. For Boca Raton homeowners east of I-95 who deal with evacuation stress already, permanent protection is usually the better call. If you want a licensed impact specialist to walk the building and show you the numbers, call us. We’ll give you an honest comparison.

The Boca Raton Door Problem No One Else Talks About
Boca Raton’s enormous inventory of 1970s and 1980s planned condo and 55-plus communities creates a market with a constraint no neighboring city matches. Century Village, Boca Lago, Whisper Walk, and dozens of similar complexes mean virtually every door replacement must satisfy three masters at once: Palm Beach County’s HVHZ wind-load code, an HOA architectural review board with strict aesthetic rules, and marine-grade corrosion resistance from Atlantic and Intracoastal salt air. Wellington doesn’t have this volume. Lake Worth doesn’t have this density of HOA governance at this price point. Boca does, and a contractor who can’t navigate all three fails the job before the door arrives.
Our crew recently replaced a corroded original aluminum entry door in a Century Village unit with a Therma-Tru fiberglass door featuring impact-rated glazing and a Miami-Dade NOA large-missile rating, matching the HOA’s approved paint spec exactly. We coordinated the phased install around snowbird occupancy, and the door’s Florida Product Approval documentation went straight to the owner’s insurer for wind mitigation credits. That’s the triple constraint in practice: code, aesthetics, and material science, handled in one installation because we’ve done it hundreds of times.
The biggest volume opportunity in Boca Raton is the bulk-replacement contract. Large 55-plus associations frequently negotiate building-wide door and window replacements covering hundreds of identical units. Winning those bids requires matching an approved unit spec across an entire building, managing phased installation around seasonal occupancy, and coordinating with the board through multiple approval cycles. Treat Boca Raton as a single-unit market and you miss the point. We handle both: single doors and full-building schedules.
What to Check Before Replacing a Door in a Boca Raton Condo
If you own a condo in any Boca Raton association, there are three things to confirm before you order a door. First, the wind-load code for your building. Boca Raton sits in a high wind-speed design zone, roughly 140 to 150 mph, and the required rating for your opening depends on your address and elevation. East of I-95 toward A1A, you’re in the highest zone, and non-impact glazing won’t pass inspection. Second, the association’s master spec. Many Boca Raton boards pre-approve only one or two brands and specific finish colors. Third, the material spec. Salt aerosol from the ocean and the Intracoastal corrodes standard aluminum hardware within a few years, so marine-grade finishes and fiberglass or aluminum-clad frames are a necessity, not an upsell. We verify all three before we order, and we document it in writing.

FAQs — Door Installation in Boca Raton
Yes, and in most Boca Raton associations it’s the single biggest approval hurdle. Most HOAs maintain a master spec listing approved brands, finish colors, and hardware types, and unapproved doors trigger removal at your expense. We pull your association’s spec before ordering anything, and we’ve worked with enough Boca Raton boards to know how to submit documentation that gets approved. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll check your building’s rules as part of the free estimate.
Your door needs a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval rating appropriate for your building’s wind zone and elevation. Boca Raton sits in a design zone of roughly 140 to 150 mph, and east of I-95 the requirement is highest, with large-missile impact ratings required for glazed openings. We specify the correct rating per opening, per elevation, and we provide the documentation your inspector and insurer need. Call (844) 901-4551 to confirm the requirement for your specific address.
For custom French doors with decorative glass, order six to eight weeks before you want installation. Custom fabrication runs four to six weeks once the spec is finalized, and HOA approval can add another one to two weeks depending on the board’s meeting schedule. Lead times, not labor, set the calendar on this tier of work. We give you a written production schedule at order, and the price is fixed in writing before we fabricate. Call (844) 901-4551 to start the spec process.
In most cases, yes, meaningfully. After a wind-mitigation inspection, most South Florida carriers credit roughly 25% off the windstorm portion of your premium for impact-rated openings. The inspection itself runs $75 to $150. Exact savings depend on your carrier, your building, and your current policy. We provide the Florida Product Approval documentation your insurer needs, prepared correctly, so the credit isn’t delayed on paperwork. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through it.
Yes. Custom arched entry doors for older oceanfront buildings in Boca Raton are a specialty of ours. We measure the opening precisely, order the custom slab with the matching millwork and finish, and schedule the install around your timeline. These doors typically start around $5,000 and climb with glass and finish, and the lead time is six to eight weeks. Call (844) 901-4551 to have us measure your opening and quote it in writing.
