Installing impact entry and French doors in Coral Springs typically costs between $2,800 and $6,500 per unit, depending on the configuration, material, and specific hardware requirements. A professional installation from TruePane Windows & Doors usually takes a single day, and we back every job with the Keystone Standard, which includes registering both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. If your existing doors are showing signs of age, binding in the frame, or failing to latch properly, call (727) 261-2215 to schedule a free estimate.
When you live in Coral Springs, your home’s entry points are the first line of defense against both the summer heat and the wind-driven debris that comes with hurricane season. We focus on high-performance impact entry and French doors because we know the difference between a standard residential door and one built to withstand local codes. Dale Kessler founded TruePane Windows & Doors on the principle that if the pane is not true, the job is not done. This philosophy guides how we measure, order, and install every door, whether it is a single front entry or a double French door leading to your patio. We are an authorized installer for major lines like PGT, CGI, and we believe in showing you the options side-by-side on paper so you can see exactly what you are paying for. As a second-generation glazier, we do not use subcontractors or temporary crews. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to treat your home with the same care they would use in their own mother’s house.

When You Need Impact Entry & French Doors
Homeowners in Coral Springs often wait too long to replace failing doors, usually because they hope a minor adjustment will fix a recurring issue. In our experience, once a door begins to bind or the seal fails, the structural integrity is already compromised. Here are the common signs that it is time to consider an upgrade:
- Binding or Rubbing: If your door scrapes against the threshold or the frame, it indicates the frame has settled or the door slab has warped. In the humidity of South Florida, this friction only gets worse.
- Air Leaks and Drafts: If you can see daylight around the edges of your door when it is closed, you are losing conditioned air. This forces your HVAC system to run longer, which increases your monthly energy costs.
- Failed Seals or Fogging: For French doors with glass inserts, moisture between the panes means the seal is broken. Once the seal fails, the insulating gas escapes, and the door loses its thermal efficiency.
- Difficulty Locking: If you have to lift, push, or pull the door to get the deadbolt to engage, the door is misaligned. This is not just an annoyance; it is a security risk that prevents the door from locking properly in an emergency.
- Corrosion or Rust: Living near the coast means salt air is constant. If you see bubbling paint or rust at the base of your door frame, the structural metal is degrading and will not hold up during high winds.
- Outdated Aesthetics: If your doors are original to the home, they likely lack the impact rating required by modern building codes. Upgrading improves your home’s curb appeal while simultaneously lowering your insurance premiums.
We strongly advise against attempting to repair high-tension or structural door components yourself. Impact doors are heavy and require precise leveling to ensure the locking mechanisms align with the strike plates. If these are installed incorrectly, they will not protect your home during a storm. If you are noticing any of these issues, call (727) 261-2215 to have a professional inspect your current setup.
Our Impact Entry & French Doors Process
We believe in a predictable, straightforward process. We do not use high-pressure sales tactics. We show up, we measure, we explain your options, and we provide a written quote. Here is how we handle your door replacement project from start to finish.
- The Initial Site Visit: We send a uniformed technician to your home to measure every opening twice. We assess the condition of your existing frame and discuss what you need in terms of security, energy efficiency, and style.
- Side-by-Side Quoting: We do not hide behind a single price. We present you with paper quotes for different manufacturer lines, such as PGT or CGI, so you can compare features and costs before making a decision.
- Verification of Specs: Once you select a door, we verify the permit requirements for Coral Springs. We ensure the product selected meets all local wind-load and impact-resistance codes.
- Installation Day: Our team arrives at the scheduled time. We remove the old door, inspect the rough opening for any hidden rot or damage, and install the new unit. We level, plumb, and square the frame to ensure it operates smoothly.
- Warranty Registration: Before we leave your driveway, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in your name. We provide you with the documentation so you have it for your records.
- The Done Right Promise: We stand behind our work. If you find an issue with the installation or operation within 90 days, we return to fix it. No arguments, no paperwork fights, and no excuses.
We treat installation as a craft commitment. We want to be the last call you ever have to make for your home’s entry points.

FAQs - Impact Entry & French Doors
How long does it take to install new impact doors?
Most standard impact entry and French door installations are completed in a single day. We arrive with all the necessary materials and tools to remove your old unit and install the new one while ensuring the opening is properly sealed and weatherproofed before we leave. Call (727) 261-2215 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Is it better to repair an old door or replace it with an impact unit?
Replacing an old door is almost always more cost-effective than attempting to repair a unit that is failing due to rot, seal failure, or frame misalignment. While a repair might fix a temporary issue, it does not address the lack of impact protection or the energy efficiency of modern materials. If your door is over 15 years old, it likely does not meet current hurricane safety standards. Call (727) 261-2215 for an assessment of your current doors.
Can you match my existing door style?
Yes, we work with over a dozen manufacturers, including PGT, Jeld-Wen, and others, to find a door that matches the architectural style of your home. Whether you need a specific glass texture, a particular frame color, or a custom configuration for a double entry, we can source products that maintain the look of your home while providing modern security. Call (727) 261-2215 to discuss your design preferences.
Do I need a permit for door replacement in Coral Springs?
Yes, replacing an exterior door in Coral Springs generally requires a permit to ensure the installation meets the Florida Building Code for wind-load and impact resistance. We handle the permit process as part of our service, so you do not have to worry about the paperwork. If you have questions about your specific property, call (727) 261-2215.
