AfterFast, Reliable Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Across Hollywood
If you’re searching for sliding glass and patio door installation or repair in Hollywood, FL, here’s the short version: a standard impact-rated sliding glass door here typically runs $3,200–$6,800 installed, depending on opening size and the product line you choose. We’ve handled hundreds of these jobs across Hollywood, from older CBS homes near Dixie Highway to newer builds west of I-75. Because every replacement in Hollywood must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) number, the product selection and installation method are not optional add-ons here, they’re the starting point. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll give you a straight answer on whether your existing door can be repaired or needs full replacement.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Company
Ed Winslow put his name on this company in 2011, and that changes how we approach every job in Hollywood. We’re not a franchise with a rotating crew. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7. When a technician shows up, they’re background-checked, uniformed, and know Hollywood’s housing stock well enough to tell you whether you’ve got a CBS masonry opening or a wood-framed one before they step out of the truck.
Our Sliding Glass & Patio Doors team has pulled original jalousie windows out of 33020 bungalows, reframed openings in 33021 mid-century homes, and replaced corroded tracks in A1A condos where salt air had done its work. Hollywood homeowners keep calling us back because we show up when we say we will, price the job before we start, and back every installation with the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do.
Being Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Hollywood specialists means we know which products pass inspection the first time here, which ones are overkill, and which ones actually hold up against the salt, wind, and summer storms this city throws at a door.
Our Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Services in Hollywood
Impact-Rated Sliding Glass Door Replacement
Every sliding glass door we install in Hollywood meets HVHZ wind-load requirements and carries a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval number. That’s not an upsell here, it’s code. We install PGT, CGI, and ViewLux impact door systems sized for your specific opening, with design pressures matched to the elevation and exposure of your home, never a blanket rating above +/-100.
Patio Door Track and Hardware Repair
If your sliding door drags, jumps the track, or won’t lock, we can usually restore it in a single visit. On Hollywood’s barrier island and the blocks east of US-1, we see pitted and seized aluminum tracks within five to seven years when standard hardware was used. For those repairs, we switch to marine-grade stainless rollers and track components, because ordinary replacements just fail again.
Jalousie Window Removal and Masonry Reframing
Hollywood’s 33020 and 33021 neighborhoods still hold dozens of original jalousie windows in 1950s and 1960s CBS homes. Those louvered glass slats cannot remain under current HVHZ code once a permit is pulled. We cut the narrow masonry opening, reframe for a modern sliding glass door, and handle the structural lintel work in-house, including the anchoring and sealing details Hollywood inspectors check carefully.
Coastal-Grade Hardware Upgrades for A1A Condos and Homes
Close to the ocean, salt-laden air corrodes standard aluminum door hardware fast. We specify corrosion-resistant stainless fasteners, marine-grade track systems, and finishes rated for coastal exposure. This isn’t a premium upsell for A1A properties, it’s the only hardware that lasts more than a decade out there.
Builder-Grade Door Replacement in Newer Hollywood Communities
West of I-75 in the 33027 and 33029 master-planned communities, many homes came with builder-grade sliding doors that met code at the time but now have failing sill pans, worn seals, and thresholds that let water in during heavy summer downpours. We replace those doors with impact-rated units that meet current NOA standards, and we coordinate with your HOA on frame color and glass tint requirements before we order anything.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
Winslow Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and ViewLux, which matters in Hollywood because HVHZ product approvals are brand- and configuration-specific. We can pull the exact NOA number for the door going into your opening, so you’re not waiting on a third-party supplier to confirm compliance. Because we install these product lines directly, we also stock common replacement rollers, locks, and weather seals locally for faster turnaround on Hollywood repairs.
Common Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- Seized or pitted tracks on coastal properties. Homes east of US-1 and on the barrier island deal with salt air that eats standard aluminum hardware within five to seven years. We see this constantly and replace with marine-grade stainless as standard practice.
- Water intrusion around sill pans in 1990s-2000s builds. In western Hollywood communities like those in 33027 and 33029, aging builder-grade sill pans and frame seals fail during heavy summer storms, staining drywall and rotting subfloors before you see it from inside.
- Non-compliant jalousie openings in central Hollywood. 1950s and 1960s CBS homes in 33020 and 33021 often still have original jalousie windows. They provide zero hurricane protection and trigger a mandatory reframe and door replacement the moment you pull a renovation permit.
- HOA-driven finish mismatches. In newer Hollywood developments, boards often mandate specific frame colors and glass tints. We’ve seen homeowners order custom doors then discover the association won’t approve them. We verify board requirements first, which saves you the cost of a reorder.
What Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Costs in Hollywood
A standard impact-rated sliding glass door in Hollywood runs $3,200–$6,800 installed for most openings. A wider or multi-panel configuration, or a door requiring significant masonry reframing, lands in the $6,500–$12,000 range. Custom or oversized openings on newer builds west of I-75 can reach $15,000+. What moves the price here: opening width and height, whether the existing rough opening is CBS masonry or wood-framed, how much reframing is required, which brand and glass package you choose, and whether you’re in a high-wind or coastal exposure zone. We give you a written, line-item price after an in-home measure, and that number doesn’t change once work begins. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule a free in-home measure and written quote.
Florida Pays You Back
Hollywood homeowners often qualify for real financial help on impact sliding glass doors. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades to owner-occupied homes. Florida also waives sales tax on impact-resistant windows and doors. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit can return 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. And after a certified wind-mitigation inspection (roughly $75–$150 out of pocket), many Hollywood homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by around 25% on the wind portion. We won’t promise a specific dollar amount on credits or premium savings. Your carrier and the program administrators set final numbers. But we’ll point you toward the documentation you need to apply.
One thing worth stating plainly: impact windows beat hurricane shutters for a sliding glass door. There are no panels to haul out of a garage at 10 p.m. with a storm bearing down. The protection is always in place, not something you install under stress. And a licensed impact specialist, not a big-box retail install crew, knows how to cut and seal a CBS masonry opening in Hollywood so it passes inspection the first time. Cutting corners on a door that must hold up to a Category 5 wind load is a costly lesson we’d rather you never learn.

FAQs — Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Hollywood
No, you cannot keep the jalousie windows in place if you’re adding a permitted sliding glass door in the same wall opening. Under Hollywood’s HVHZ code, any permitted renovation on a home built before 1992 triggers a requirement that the opening meet current impact standards. The jalousie unit has to come out, the masonry opening must be cut and reframed, and the new door must carry a Miami-Dade NOA. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll walk you through what a reframe looks like on your home’s floor plan.
In Hollywood, the corrosion zone extends about one to two miles inland from the beach. Homes east of US-1 and everything on the barrier island get the worst of it, but we see accelerated hardware wear throughout the 33019, 33020, and eastern 33021 ZIP codes. Within five to seven years, standard aluminum rollers and tracks begin to pit and seize. If you live in those areas and your door is getting hard to slide, ask for marine-grade stainless replacement hardware. Call (844) 901-4551 for an estimate and we’ll tell you honestly whether a repair or replacement makes more sense.
Often, yes, but the premium change comes from a certified wind-mitigation inspection, not from the door replacement itself. When we install an impact-rated sliding glass door with a Miami-Dade NOA, that improvement gets documented on your wind mitigation report. Many Hollywood homeowners see a reduction averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of their premium. Your carrier sets the final number. We’ll give you the documentation to submit.
Yes, and it’s common in Hollywood’s newer master-planned communities, especially in 33027 and 33029. Many HOA architectural guidelines specify approved frame colors and glass tints for any exterior change. If you order a custom finish without board approval and it’s not on the approved list, you can be forced to reorder. We verify your HOA’s published requirements before we place the order, and we’ll submit the necessary documentation if your association requires pre-approval paperwork. Call (844) 901-4551 and we’ll help you get it right the first time.
In many cases you can replace just the insulated glass unit inside the existing frame, especially if the frame is still square and the track is in good condition. But if the door was installed before Hollywood’s current HVHZ code took effect, or if the frame is a pre-1992 non-impact unit, a glass-only swap will not bring the door into compliance. A cracked pane on an old jalousie or single-pane aluminum door is usually the moment to consider full impact replacement. We’ll assess the frame and give you both options with honest pricing. Call (844) 901-4551 for a free in-home evaluation.
A Field Note from Hollywood
In the 33021 corridor near Young Circle, our crew removed a home’s original 1958 jalousie windows and cut back the narrow concrete block masonry openings to install a PGT impact-rated sliding glass door with laminated glass interlayer and full Miami-Dade NOA approval. The new multi-point locking system and low-E insulated glass unit quieted the Dixie Highway traffic noise noticeably, and the homeowner’s wind mitigation inspection documented the upgrade, which lowered their windstorm premium. That project is a good picture of what we do in Hollywood: convert aging CBS openings into code-compliant, storm-ready glass without tearing apart the whole wall.
