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

Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Hollywood

Door installation in Hollywood, CA comes with a requirement most contractors never mention until the permit gets flagged: every exterior door must carry a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval before the city will sign off. That’s not a preference. It’s Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code, and it applies to every home in the 33020, 33021, 33019, and 33023 ZIP codes. TruePane Windows & Doors has been setting doors in Hollywood long enough to know which products pass inspection the first time and which ones send a homeowner back to the permit office. If you’re replacing an entry door, a sliding glass door, or a rotted jalousie frame, call (888) 635-0804 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your house needs.

We’re not a franchise dispatch service. We’re a local crew that knows the difference between a 1952 CBS ranch east of I-95 and a 1970s beachfront condo tower on the A1A corridor. The doors are different. The wind loads are different. The inspection process is different. We plan for that before we ever set a hinge.

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

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. That rule applies to every door we hang in Hollywood, whether it’s a new impact-rated entry door in the Lakes neighborhood or a replacement sliding glass door in a Hollywood Beach condo. We measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s in writing on every job.

Our Hollywood customers tend to be people who have lived in the same house for twenty years or more. They’ve dealt with contractors who disappeared after the check cleared. So we built the company around the Done Right Promise: if the work isn’t right, we make it right, no paperwork fights, no fine print that covers neither. A background-checked, uniformed technician shows up when we say. We’ll be there when we say. And if you call at 2 a.m. because a door won’t latch after a storm, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree.

We also know Hollywood’s inspection dynamic cold. When you open up a 1950s CBS wall, you don’t always find what the plans say. You find what’s actually there: undersized headers, cloth-insulated aluminum wiring, termite damage behind the jamb. We document all of it, price it per line item, and get your written approval before we touch anything. No surprise line items on the bill.

Our Door Installation Services in Hollywood

Entry & Swing Doors

A front door in Hollywood isn’t just a door. It’s the first line of defense against 170 mph wind-load design pressures, and it’s also the first thing a building inspector checks when a permit gets pulled. We install impact-rated entry doors that carry the required Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval, so your permit clears without a second trip to the office. Most entry door replacements in Hollywood run $1,800 to $4,200 installed, depending on material and whether we need to rebuild the rough opening or upgrade the framing.

Double & French Doors

Double and French doors are common in Hollywood’s mid-century ranches, especially homeowners opening up a back wall to a patio or pool. The catch: those original aluminum double doors from the 1960s almost never carry current product approval, and the framing behind them is often undersized for today’s HVHZ uplift requirements. We quote the door, the header upgrade if needed, and the flashing detail as separate line items so you see exactly what you’re paying for. A typical double French door installation in Hollywood runs $3,500 to $7,800 with impact glazing.

Storm Doors

Storm doors make sense on Hollywood’s east side, where original front doors still let in heat and humidity nine months of the year. A properly installed storm door also gives you a second layer of protection against wind-driven rain during hurricane season. We stock storm doors from manufacturers with strong coastal corrosion ratings, and we install them over existing entry doors without disturbing the primary door’s seal. Storm door installation in Hollywood typically runs $600 to $1,400 including hardware and weatherstripping.

Pivot Doors

Pivot doors are a popular upgrade in Hollywood’s newer constructions and high-end remodels off Sheridan Street and along the Intracoastal. They’re heavier than standard hinge doors and the pivot hardware has to be engineered for the opening’s dead load plus wind pressure. We’ve installed pivot doors up to 10 feet tall in Hollywood, and every one of them went through the same product-approval review as a standard door. Pivot door installation starts around $6,500 and climbs from there based on size, glass package, and hardware finish. Call (888) 635-0804 for a written quote.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood

TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Hollywood homes we lean heavily on PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. These three carry the Miami-Dade NOAs and Florida Product Approvals that Hollywood’s permitting office expects to see on the paperwork. PGT makes a strong mid-range impact door that’s common in the 33020 and 33021 grids. CGI is the choice for beachfront condos in 33019 where salt spray eats cheaper hardware. ES Windows handles custom sizes and pivot configurations when an off-the-shelf door won’t work. We walk you through the options side by side, on paper, with the warranty durations stated before you sign anything.

Common Door Installation Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

• Missing Florida Product Approval. Original jalousie or thin aluminum doors from the 1950s and 1960s fail HVHZ inspection because they never carried a product approval number. The permit stalls, the install date slips, and sometimes a homeowner eats the cost of a door they can’t legally install. We check product approval before we order, not after the inspector shows up.
• Salt corrosion along the barrier island. On Hollywood Beach and the 33019 corridor, uncoated steel hinges and screen tracks corrode within five to seven years. Doors start to sag, latch plates strip out, and sliding doors seize in their tracks. We specify marine-grade anodized or painted finishes for anything within a mile of the ocean.
• Hidden framing damage in older CBS walls. A 1958 ranch in the 33020 grid doesn’t always have a header sized for today’s wind loads. Sometimes the rough opening is rotted from decades of leaky door flashing. We budget a framing allowance into every Hollywood door contract so a hidden problem doesn’t blow the budget mid-project.
• Non-permitted wiring behind door frames. It’s common in Hollywood’s original homes to find cloth-insulated aluminum wiring running through the wall cavity next to a door jamb. Once the wall is open, the inspector can flag it. We photograph it, write it into a change order with a per-line price, and get your approval before any electrical work happens.
