Door Installation in Hollywood - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Hollywood

Door installation in Hollywood, FL is a different job than it is ten miles inland. The salt air off the Atlantic and the Intracoastal eats standard aluminum. The CBS ranch homes between Hollywood Boulevard and Pembroke Road were built with wall assemblies that were never meant to hold today’s impact-rated units. And Florida’s post-Surfside milestone inspection law now has condo boards along the Broadwalk ordering floor-by-floor replacements on a deadline. We work inside those realities every week. If you need a front door, a storm door, or a full condo door replacement in Hollywood, call (863) 208-6105 and we’ll put a real person on the line who knows this city’s permitting process, its architectural review board, and its particular failure modes.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Door Installation Company

We’re not a franchise that parachutes in. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule he still keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Our crews work Hollywood neighborhoods every week, so we know that a 1962 ranch near Hollywood Boulevard and 56th Avenue has a different opening than a 1984 condo unit on South Ocean Drive. We file the submittal packets ourselves. We quotemanufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. And both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s not a slogan. It’s how we’ve kept Hollywood homeowners from getting burned twice.

When you call us, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form, not a regional call center in another state. That matters when a corroded hinge has your front door sagging and you need to know if it can wait until Friday. We schedule around Hollywood’s architectural review timelines so your opening isn’t sitting tarped while a committee debates door color. Most jobs are completed in a single visit. And every job carries the Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights. No arguing.

Our Door Installation Services in Hollywood

Here’s what we install in Hollywood, and how each one fits this city’s specific housing stock.

Entry & Swing Doors

Most of the homes in central and eastern Hollywood are concrete block, built between roughly 1950 and 1975. Original openings were often sized for jalousie or aluminum swing doors that are now decades past their useful life and code-deficient for impact resistance. Retrofitting a masonry opening for a modern insulated swing door isn’t a straight swap. It takes measuring twice, shimming the jamb so the reveal stays even when the house settles, and flashing the rough opening for South Florida rainfall. A new entry door for a Hollywood CBS ranch typically runs $1,400 to $3,200 including framing adjustment and weatherproofing.

Double & French Doors

Hollywood’s mid-century ranches and 1960s-era ranch additions often included narrow double-door openings that don’t match modern rough opening standards. When you’re replacing a corroded set of aluminum French doors that face the Intracoastal, the salt air has usually pitted the threshold and seized the hardware. We replace the full unit, reset the threshold on a sealed sill pan, and use stainless or powder-coated hardware that won’t pit within three years. Double French door installs in Hollywood run $2,800 to $5,600 depending on glass package and whether the opening needs reframing.

Bifold & Folding Doors

Bifold and folding door systems show up most often in Hollywood’s newer townhomes and renovated mid-rise condos where a dining room or den opens onto a small terrace. They demand a dead-level track and a header that carries the full weight of the panels without deflection. On a high floor near the Broadwalk, wind loads change the math on the reinforcement. We verify the header before we order, and we pull the permit. Bifold door installations in Hollywood run $4,200 to $8,000 for a typical three-panel opening.

Pivot Doors

A pivot door is a statement entrance, and Hollywood has plenty of waterfront addresses where oversized openings get approved if the submittal packet is clean and the finish is neutral. These are heavy units that require a reinforced header and floor pivot, and they’re unforgiving if the slab is out of level. We’ve installed pivot doors on custom builds along the Intracoastal and in renovated Hollywood Lakes homes where the architecture leans contemporary. A pivot door install in Hollywood typically runs $5,500 to $11,000 depending on size, panel material, and hardware.

Storm Doors

For homeowners who don’t want to replace a solid entry door yet, a storm door adds a second layer of protection against Hollywood’s humid summers and the salt haze that blows in off the ocean. But a cheap storm door with a flimsy frame will bind in July and rattle every time the wind shifts. We install reinforced storm doors with dual weatherstripping and closer hardware rated for coastal exposure. Storm door installations in Hollywood run $650 to $1,400.

Arched & Custom Doors

Older Hollywood homes, particularly in the Lakes section, sometimes have arched openings that were built custom fifty years ago and never touched since. Replacing those takes a manufacturer who can match the radius exactly and a crew who will scribe the jamb to the block rather than caulking a gap and walking away. Arched and fully custom door installs in Hollywood run $3,000 to $7,500.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood

We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including. When we quote a Hollywood job, we put the options on paper side by side so you can see the difference in glass package, frame material, and warranty length before you spend a dollar. We stock common replacement hardware and weatherstripping for the door brands we service, which means Hollywood customers aren’t waiting two weeks for a warranty part when a hinge fails in July. For impact-rated coastal work, we lean on manufacturers whose frames and hardware are built for salt-air exposure rather than inland conditions.

Common Door Installation Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

Hollywood has its own failure patterns. Here’s what we pull out of homes in this city more than anywhere else.

• Salt-air pitting on aluminum frames. Within three to five years near the Intracoastal or the Broadwalk, standard aluminum door frames develop pitting that seizes the hardware and compromises the seal on the insulated glass unit. We replace with impact-rated frames built for marine exposure.
• Code-deficient jalousie panels. The original aluminum jalousie doors in Hollywood’s 1950s CBS ranches provide no meaningful hurricane protection and fail current Broward County wind-load code. Replacement is a permit-driven necessity, not an upgrade.
• Framing rot hidden behind the stucco. South Florida humidity and driving rain work moisture behind door jambs in older Hollywood homes, and by the time the door binds, the framing behind the opening is rotten. We don’t install a new door over bad backing.
• Failed installations from unpermitted work. We regularly see Hollywood doors that were installed without a Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA, so they fail final inspection the moment an owner tries to sell the house or bring a condo unit into milestone compliance.
• Openings left tarped waiting on review. Some contractors tear out the old door before architectural review approves the replacement. Then the homeowner’s front opening sits covered in plastic for three weeks while the committee deliberates. We file first and schedule the tear-out for the day after approval.
