Why it matters
A sliding or French door is the largest single opening in most Florida homes — the place where impact rating, water sealing, and hardware get tested hardest. Done right, it glides with one hand, keeps the rain out, and passes inspection. Done wrong, it sticks, it leaks at the threshold, and it fails the county. Here's where it usually goes wrong:
It takes two hands to open, and the floor by the track is wet after every hard rain.
"We just stopped using that door."The biggest opening is the weak point — if water gets in anywhere, it's at the patio doors.
"It only leaks when the wind drives the rain."There's no good way to cover twelve feet of glass twice a year — impact rating ends the ritual.
"How do you even shutter a wall of glass?"They set the frame but skipped the sill-pan and threshold detail, and the county sent them back.
"They didn't know what the inspector wanted."Our approach
Nineteen years of impact-door installs in South Florida means we detail the parts the inspector and the next storm actually test.
A patio door is the largest single penetration in the wall, so we treat it that way. We detail the sill pan and threshold, seal the frame to the substrate, and water-test the opening before we call it done — the difference between a door that's rated and a door that's actually dry.
Every door carries a documented Florida Product Approval — and a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) where the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone in Broward and Miami-Dade requires one. We engineer to your elevation's design pressure, hang the panels true so a wide multi-slide glides with one hand, and finish with three-point stainless locking. The crew on your house is ours — W-2 employees, never day labor.
On the job

Insurance savings
Impact-rated doors qualify for the same wind-mitigation credit as impact windows — roughly 15–40% off the wind portion of your insurance premium on most Florida policies. We hand you the signed OIR-1802 wind-mitigation form your carrier needs to apply it.
