Tropic Glass Enclosures handles door installation and replacement in Boca Raton for homeowners with a front door that sticks, a slider that grinds, or French doors that leak every time it pours. We measure it, order it, and hang it with our own crew.
We are a family-owned business working across Palm Beach County for nearly four decades. If you have been searching door installation near me and want someone who will actually pick up the phone, that is us. Door installation and replacement is everyday work for our installers.
What a Proper Door Replacement Involves
A door is the one opening you use every single day. If the frame is out of square or the threshold sits wrong, you feel it: a latch that will not catch, a slider that jumps its track, water on the tile after a storm.
Good door installation and replacement means checking the subfloor and sill, setting the frame plumb, and sealing it so rain stays outside. For openings that face the weather, we often suggest impact-rated doors so you can skip the shutters.
Our Door Installation Steps, Start to Finish
Every door job starts with a visit. We look at the opening, how the old door was set, and what you want the new one to do. Then:
Measure the Opening
We measure the rough opening, check the sill and threshold for rot, and note which way the door needs to swing.
Pick the Door
Entry, French or sliding glass, vinyl or aluminum, impact or non-impact. We walk through the options for that spot.
Remove the Old Unit
Floors get covered, then the old door, frame and threshold come out without tearing up the stucco around them.
Set, Shim and Seal
The new door is set plumb, anchored, shimmed so it swings or slides true, and sealed against rain.
Hardware Check
We adjust locks, rollers and weatherstripping, show you how everything works, and clean up.
No door gets left half-hung overnight. If it comes out in the morning, a new one is locked in by the time we leave.
Door Projects Boca Raton Homeowners Call About
Front of the house or back, these are the jobs we do most.
Front door replacement on older homes
- A swollen, sticking front door is the first thing guests touch. Replacing it changes how the whole house looks from the street.
Entry door installation with sidelights
- Glass sidelights and transoms brighten a dark foyer. We install the door and the glass panels around it as one unit.
French door installation onto the pool deck
- Swing doors that open the family room to the patio. Good for homes where a slider feels too modern.
Sliding glass door replacement
- Rollers wear out, tracks corrode, and old sliders fight you every time. A new one glides with one hand.
Patio door installation off the lanai
- The door between your living room and screened lanai sees sun, rain and constant traffic. We fit one made for it.
Steel frame doors
- For a heavier look or a spot that needs extra strength, we install steel frame doors too.
Non-impact doors for covered openings
- Interior doorways and protected openings do not always need impact glass. Non-impact doors can save money there.
Running a shop or office instead? Our crew also installs storefront and office doors for businesses around town.
What to Expect on Door Replacement Day
We show up on a weekday between 8 and 5, cover the floor, and get to work. A single door is usually out and back in the same day. Expect a little noise and some trim work around the frame.
Book the morning if you can. Summer storms build out over the Everglades most afternoons and roll east toward the coast, and west-facing sliders take the brunt of them. If the windows on that wall are just as tired, we can quote new windows on the same visit.

Door Installation and Replacement Costs in Boca Raton
A basic front door swap and a four-panel impact slider are very different jobs. Price depends on door type and size, frame material, glass, hardware, and whether the opening needs repair before the new door goes in.

Door Installation and Replacement FAQs
-
A single entry door or slider is usually a one-day job once the new door is on site. Larger jobs with several doors take longer, and we give you the schedule at the estimate.
-
For most exterior doors in Boca Raton, yes. An impact door protects the opening without shutters. We install both impact and non-impact doors and will tell you honestly where each makes sense.
-
Yes. We handle residential and commercial door installation, from front doors on homes to storefront and back-of-house doors on businesses.
-
No. Tropic Glass Enclosures does no outsourcing or subcontracting. The installer at your house is our employee.
-
Clear furniture and rugs away from the doorway, take down curtains or blinds near it, and leave a path from the driveway. If the door is on your alarm system, let your alarm company know ahead of time.
