AfterFast, Reliable Door Installation Across Greenacres
Door installation in Greenacres runs anywhere from $850 for a basic hinged storm door to $6,500 or more for a custom impact-rated pivot door on a CBS ranch. Most entry door replacements on the 1970s-1980s homes that fill this city land between $1,900 and $4,200, parts and labor included. If you live off Jog Road or Lake Worth Road and your original door binds in July or lets daylight through the jamb, call (561) 940-2917. We measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Greenacres’s Preferred Door Installation Company
Greenacres homes are not like the newer builds you’ll find in Wellington or Royal Palm Beach. The core of this city is single-story CBS ranch construction from roughly 1970 to 1990, and those masonry openings move. Ground moisture, decades of wet-dry cycles, and the simple weight of a concrete block wall mean original door jambs are rarely square anymore. Our crews have reset enough of them to know exactly how much shimming and anchoring each job takes before we quote it.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 to fix what he saw across South Florida: out-of-true installs, fogged seals, and warranties that dissolved the moment a homeowner needed them. We’ve spent years in the glazing and door trade, and we hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and act like a company that plans to be in Greenacres in thirty years. A background-checked, uniformed technician answers the phone when you call, and that same live person answers 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail tree, no regional call center.
We stand behind every Greenacres job with the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before we leave the driveway. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our Door Installation Services in Greenacres
Most Greenacres homes need full rough-opening replacements, not insert retrofits. The original frames are aluminum, the jambs have pulled off the block, and the thresholds have wicked years of stormwater. We scope every job for the opening as it actually is, not as the original blueprints said it should be. Here is what we install most often across Greenacres.
Entry & Swing Doors
Entry door replacement in Greenacres typically runs $1,900 to $3,800 for a standard 36-inch pre-hung unit, depending on whether the masonry jamb needs re-anchoring. On the 1978 CBS ranch off Jog Road, our crew pulled a corroded aluminum sliding door with a failed insulated glass unit, fogged argon gone, and reset the jamb with flashing tape before installing an impact-rated hinged entry door. We shimmed the masonry opening square after decades of ground moisture movement. That is the normal job here, not the exception.
Double & French Doors
Double door replacements for Greenacres ranches run $3,400 to $7,800, with impact-rated glazing pushing the higher end. The original hinge screws on these older homes often strip straight out of the 1970s masonry, which means we anchor the jamb with sleeve anchors instead of wood screws. We also check the threshold flashing carefully. On acreage lots where grading slopes toward the slab, an unflashed threshold wicks stormwater under the frame and rots the sill within two wet seasons.
Storm Doors
A quality storm door in Greenacres runs $850 to $1,600 installed. For many original CBS ranches, a storm door buys time and cuts humidity intrusion while a homeowner budgets for a full impact opening replacement. We carry Andersen and Pella storm lines locally and can usually have parts in hand within days rather than weeks.
Bifold & Folding Doors
Bifold patio door replacements run $4,200 to $9,000 in Greenacres, depending on panel count and whether we’re pulling a permit. Older CBS homes with original aluminum sliders need full rough-opening work, not a panel swap. We quote the entire opening on paper before any work starts, so there are no surprise line items on the bill.
Pivot Doors
Custom pivot doors start around $5,500 and climb from there, especially on larger openings. These jobs almost always involve custom widths because the original CBS rough opening was sized for a 1970s sliding unit, not a modern pivot hinge system. We measure, quote, and install to the actual masonry, not to a catalog number.

Trusted Brands We Service in Greenacres

We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying, and we register both warranty layers before our truck leaves your driveway. For Greenacres homeowners, that means warranty paperwork actually in your name, with durations stated, not a promise that fades when the installer stops answering the phone.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Greenacres Homes
- Original hinge screws stripping out of CBS masonry. The 1970s block walls were poured dense, and standard wood screws never held well. We anchor jambs with sleeve anchors, not drywall screws.
- Unflashed thresholds on acreage lots. Greenacres grading often slopes toward the slab, so stormwater runs under the door frame. Without proper flashing tape and a sloped sill pan, the subfloor rots within two wet seasons.
- Out-of-square rough openings. Decades of ground moisture movement leave original door openings off by a half-inch or more. We shim and reset every jamb before we hang the door.
- Non-impact doors on outbuildings that fail wind mitigation. Homeowners skip the county permit for a shed or shop door, then discover the non-impact opening fails a re-inspection before sale. We pull permits and install to Palm Beach County code the first time.
Pricing for Door Installation in Greenacres, FL
Here is what we actually charge in Greenacres, not what a national cost guide says. A standard entry door replacement runs $1,900 to $3,800. Storm doors run $850 to $1,600.

Custom widths on original CBS openings add $400 to $1,100.
The three things that change the price most in Greenacres are the masonry condition, the permit requirements, and whether the opening needs to be re-squared.

FAQs - Door Installation in Greenacres
Yes. Any time you enlarge or alter a rough opening in a CBS wall, you are changing the structural envelope, and Palm Beach County requires a building permit. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and stand behind the work the same way we would on our own shop. Call (561) 940-2917 and we’ll tell you exactly what your specific opening needs before we quote.
The original anchors on 1970s and 1980s CBS sliders were set into block that has shifted over decades of ground moisture cycles. The frame pulls loose because the anchors were never designed for that much movement. We re-anchor the jamb with sleeve anchors and re-shim the opening square before installing the new door. That is a standard part of our quote, not an add-on.
Legally, the answer depends on the building’s status, but practically it is a bad bet. Greenacres sits in Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, and any permitted door replacement must meet impact or protection standards regardless of distance from the coast. Skip the permit now and you’ll likely fail a wind mitigation inspection when you sell. We quote the code-compliant option the first time, so you never have to redo the job.
On acreage lots with septic systems and wells, the county health department sets minimum setbacks between any new opening and the drain field or well head. That can shift where a door is allowed to go, or force a redesign. We check setback requirements before we quote, so you do not pay for a design that the county will reject. Call (561) 940-2917 to have a technician check your lot.
Most original Greenacres ranch openings were framed at non-standard widths, often 34 or 35 inches, not the modern 36-inch standard. We measure every opening twice before we order. If a custom width is required, we tell you before the quote is finalized, not after the truck is loaded. Estimates are free, and a live person answers 24/7.
