Types of Sliding Door Installations We Handle

  • Replacement installation (swap-out) — Removing an existing door system and installing a new one in the same rough opening. The most straightforward type. If the opening dimensions are standard, this can often be completed in one day.
  • New opening installation — Creating a new opening in an exterior wall and framing it to accept a sliding door. Requires structural engineering for load-bearing walls, a building permit, and typically takes 2–4 days.
  • Opening size modification — Enlarging or modifying an existing opening to accommodate a larger or different door configuration. Common when upgrading from a 6-foot to an 8-foot or 12-foot multi-panel sliding system.
  • Multi-panel sliding systems — 3-panel, 4-panel, or full wall-opening bifolding and stacking sliding systems. These dramatic openings are popular in Broward County's coastal homes and remodels. Pricing starts at $3,500 for installation labor on a 3-panel system.

    Permit Application (if required)

  3. 3

    Door Ordered & Scheduled

    After permit approval, the door is ordered to spec. Standard doors arrive in 1–2 weeks. Custom impact systems may take 3–6 weeks. We schedule installation immediately upon delivery confirmation.

    Our crew installs the door, seals and flashes the frame per Florida Building Code moisture management requirements, installs hardware, and cleans up the worksite. Final building department inspection is scheduled if required.

Does New Sliding Door Installation Require a Permit in Broward County?

Yes, in almost all cases. Florida Building Code Section 105.1 requires a permit for any new door installation or replacement that involves modifying the building envelope. A permit ensures the installation is inspected for correct flashing, sealant, and structural attachment — all critical in Broward County's hurricane climate. We handle all permit paperwork as part of our full-service installation.

How long does sliding door installation take?
A straightforward same-size replacement installation typically takes 4–8 hours (one day). New opening installations with structural work take 2–4 days. Permit approval time (typically 1–3 weeks for residential work in Broward County) is the most variable factor in total project timeline.
What size sliding doors are available?
Standard residential sizes are 5', 6', and 8' wide. Multi-panel systems can be configured up to 20'+ wide. We can source any standard or custom size from our supplier network.
