Our Sliding & Patio Doors Services in Margate

Impact Sliding Glass Doors

Every sliding door in Margate must carry a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval - the city sits entirely within Broward County’s HVHZ, one of only two Florida counties with that designation. We specify impact-rated units from PGT and Mr-Glass with laminated glass interlayers rated to Margate’s design wind pressure, not generic “hurricane resistant” labels. The measured survey documents the exact design pressure your opening requires, and the written quote locks that specification. No substitutions without a signed change order.

Patio Doors

Margate’s 1960s-1985 CBS homes were built with affordable aluminum-frame sliders, many still in service past their functional life. We replace these with modern units from ViewLux and Therma-Tru, specified by U-factor and SHGC performance rather than what’s in stock. The old track corrosion from Broward’s humidity and driving rain? We see it weekly. The new sill pan and waterproofing detail? Written into the scope before demolition starts.

Sliding Glass Door Replacement

This is where Margate’s housing stock gets specific. In the 1960s CBS tract homes off Royal Palm Boulevard, our crew pulled the original aluminum sliding glass door and found the slab-edge opening had been poured for a jalousie window, not a full-height patio door - the header was undersized, the sill pan had no waterproofing, and the old unit’s track had corroded from years of driving rain. We custom-framed an impact PGT slider with a laminated glass interlayer rated to Margate’s HVHZ design pressure, rebuilt the jamb and sill pan, and pulled the Broward County permit before the first screw went in; the homeowner had a written price for the framing upgrade before we started demolition. That’s standard practice on every replacement we handle in Margate.

Impact French Patio Doors

French patio doors in Margate face the same HVHZ requirements as sliders, with the added complexity of multi-point locking hardware and dual-swing weatherstripping. We source impact-rated French units from PGT and CGI with Miami-Dade NOA documentation, and we size the rough opening to the actual frame dimensions - not the nominal size on the old door. The measured survey catches the discrepancy before the unit is ordered.

Trusted Brands We Service in Margate

We draw from eight verified manufacturer lines - PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux - specified by what the opening requires, not by what is in stock. For Margate’s HVHZ compliance, we lean heavily on PGT and Mr-Glass impact-rated sliders with documented Miami-Dade NOA numbers, and we stock common replacement hardware locally to avoid the lead times that delay out-of-area installers. Every product is matched to the performance tier and price range the customer selects; we don’t upsell margin, we specify performance.

Common Sliding & Patio Doors Problems We See in Margate Homes

• Corroded aluminum tracks from Broward’s humidity and driving afternoon storms. The original sliders in Margate’s 1960s-1980s homes were built with untreated aluminum tracks that pit and seize. The door drags, then the rollers fail, then the frame flexes and leaks at the sill. We measure the track wear during survey and specify stainless-steel or composite replacement hardware where the opening allows.
• Undersized headers and unsealed sill pans in enclosed Florida rooms. These additions were common on Margate’s CBS tract homes, and the slab-edge opening was often poured for jalousie windows - not full-height patio doors. Removing the old frame without inspecting the header and sill pan first is how out-of-area installers create structural and waterproofing failures. We pull the permit and inspect the full opening before quoting the framing allowance.
• Failed wind mitigation inspections due to non-impact sliders. Florida insurers increasingly cancel policies on 1960s-1980s CBS homes whose original single-pane sliders lack Miami-Dade/Broward NOA approvals. A replacement without proper product approval and permit inspection leaves the opening uninspected and the policy exposed. We document every approval number and permit closure for the customer’s insurance file.
• Stucco surround rot from years of sill leakage. Once the track corrodes and the sill seal fails, water migrates behind the stucco and rots the sheathing. We see this at the slab edge in older Margate homes near Margate Boulevard. The repair requires reframing, new weather barrier, and stucco patch - all written into the scope before work starts, with a fixed allowance for hidden damage.
