Door styles · Palm Beach to Fort Myers

Impact sliding glass doors, panels that glide, nothing that swings.

Glass panels roll along a track, so the door opens without swinging into the room or onto the patio. You can have two panels or more, or a pocket layout where the panels slide into the wall. Every door goes on a written quote with its Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade approval (NOA) number, and our own crew installs it.

ES Windows product page ↗

ES also makes the ES-SGD2020, a slider with a low-rise threshold, and the ES-SGD1010T, “with minimal sightlines.” Your written quote names the exact door, its panel layout, its frame and glass, and its approval number.

Where it fits

A slider never swings into the room or onto the lanai.

Good fit

  • The wall between the living room and the pool, patio or lanai
  • Wide openings: more panels cover more width
  • Rooms with furniture near the door: nothing swings into it

Think twice

  • Narrow openings where one door would do: French doors or a hinged door may suit better
  • If you want the whole opening clear: a slider keeps one panel's width of glass in place, unless you choose a pocket layout

From our Deerfield Beach and Fort Myers Google listings.

Very professional and knowledgeable. Attention to detail in all areas. Very clean workers. I had 5 sliders put in and a small slider over the kitchen sink. Doors are of excellent quality.

Hank Vogel · Google review, August 2025 · Deerfield Beach listing

I recently replaced a sliding glass door, a window, and my entrance door at my condo, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the entire experience! … All necessary permits were pulled properly, the workmanship was excellent, and the crew did a fantastic job cleaning up after the project.

Elena Kim · Google review, August 2026 · Deerfield Beach listing

I did 3 sliding glass doors and 4 windows. The installation team was professional and knowledgeable.

How many panels can an impact sliding glass door have?

It depends on the product. CWS offers its sliding patio door in “configurations up to 4 panels,” and its Multi-Slide in 2, 3 and 4-panel designs. ES Windows lists layouts for its ES-EL400 from two panels up to six (XOXXOX). We size the layout to your opening at the free in-home measure.

What is a pocket sliding glass door?

In a pocket layout the panels slide into a cavity in the wall, so the opening is completely clear when the door is open. CWS lists pocket layouts on its Multi-Slide, and ES Windows on its ES-EL400. A pocket needs a wall beside the opening that can take the panels, so we check yours at the measure.

Are impact sliding doors hard to break into?

Look at the locks and the track. CWS lists up to 6-point locking on its impact sliding door, and its Multi-Slide has anti-lift blocks to keep panels from being lifted off the track. Ask us to walk you through the lock on the exact door you're quoted, at the free in-home measure.

Sliding doors or French doors to the patio?

A slider stays inside its frame, so furniture can sit close and nothing swings onto the lanai. French doors open the full width between them but need room to swing; ES Windows lists its French doors as out-swing. For a wide opening a slider is usually the better fit; for a classic two-door look, French doors.

Can you replace sliders in a condo?

Yes. One condo owner who replaced a sliding glass door, a window and an entry door wrote that “all necessary permits were pulled properly.” Associations set their own rules for exterior changes, so check with your board early. We pull the building permit and see it through final inspection.

How long does a sliding door replacement take?

Plan on 10 to 12 weeks from signed contract to install day, while we pull the permit and the door is made to your measurements. Install day depends on how much you're replacing; one customer with sliders and windows wrote that our crew did the job “in less than half the time they had scheduled.”

How much do impact sliding glass doors cost?

We don't publish a price list, since a slider is priced by its width and height, the number of panels and tracks, the frame and the glass. The free in-home measure gets you a written quote listing the door with its manufacturer and approval number, so it can sit beside other quotes line by line.

Which sliding glass doors do you install?

Sliders from CWS (the Hurricane Guard sliding patio door and the Multi-Slide) and ES Windows (such as the ES-EL400). We're an authorized installer for both. The quote names your exact door, its layout and its approval number.
