We’re the local crew that shows up when we say we will, and Ed Winslow’s name is on every job we do.

Our Door Installation Services in Hollywood
Here’s what we handle most often in Hollywood. Each of these ties back to Door Installation done right the first time, with the right product approval for your permit.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
Hollywood sits inside Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. That’s not a suggestion; it’s a code requirement. Every hurricane-proof door we install carries a Miami-Dade NOA or FBC product approval with explicit HVHZ designation. We match design pressures to the specific opening on your home, never exceeding +/-100 PSF. If a door has a Florida approval but lacks HVHZ language, Hollywood inspectors flag it at rough inspection. We don’t install those doors here, period.

Replacement Doors
When we replace a door on a 1960s CBS ranch in Hollywood Hills or Emerald Hills, we don’t just swap the slab. We inspect the jamb, the framing behind it, and the waterproofing. Corroded aluminum frames are common within a mile of the Atlantic, and salt air eats hardware faster than most homeowners expect. We document what we find, write an allowance into the contract for possible reframing, and get your approval in writing before we touch anything. No mid-project surprises on the invoice.

Storm & Exterior Doors
A storm door in Hollywood does double duty: it shields your primary entry door from salt spray and humidity while adding a layer of impact protection, similar to how Impact Garage Doors - Hollywood protect your home’s largest openings. We install marine-grade aluminum options that hold up along the Hollywood Beach corridor, where standard powder-coated frames oxidize in a decade or less. The material spec matters here, and we’ll walk you through it honestly.

French & Double Doors
French doors facing the Atlantic need proper anchoring into concrete block, not wood studs. Many Hollywood homes west of US-1 were built with single-pane aluminum sliders or louvered jalousie doors, and a French door retrofit or Hollywood Custom & Geometric Windows installation requires opening the wall correctly. We coordinate with your condo association’s engineering review when needed, especially on Hollywood Beach mid-rises where association approvals add a permitting layer. We handle that paperwork so you don’t have to chase it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
We’re authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. For Hollywood’s HVHZ requirements, we lean on PGT and CGI most often because their product approvals carry explicit HVHZ language that city inspectors recognize without a fight. We stock common hardware and sealants locally, which means faster turnaround when your door needs adjustment after install. No chasing parts for three weeks.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- Non-compliant “impact-rated” doors. A door with a Florida Product Approval but no explicit HVHZ designation will fail a Hollywood rough inspection. We verify the approval sticker on the unit itself before it ever goes on the truck. This catches crews who work Broward’s western cities, where inspectors are sometimes less strict, then assume the same product flies on a Hollywood permit.
- Corroded or undersized framing on 1950s-1970s CBS homes. Concrete block construction means door openings were often framed with whatever lumber was handy. Salt air accelerates corrosion on any metal components. If the framing isn’t addressed before installation, you get improper shimming and air or water leaks within a few seasons.
- Condo association permitting conflicts. On Hollywood Beach and along the barrier island, many projects stall because the association’s engineering review wasn’t coordinated before demolition began. We pull that thread early, so your permit doesn’t stall after the wall is open.
- Floor-to-ceiling slider corrosion on ocean-facing units. Coastal Hollywood homes within a mile of the ocean commonly see frame seal failures and handle or lock corrosion within 10 to 12 years on non-marine-grade product. If you’re replacing a slider, the spec conversation matters as much as the installation itself.
Pricing for Door Installation in Hollywood, FL
What actually moves the price in Hollywood? Three things: opening count, wind zone requirements, and what we find behind the old door. Each additional opening adds labor and anchoring into concrete block, which takes longer than wood-frame installation. HVHZ-rated units cost more than standard Florida-approved impact doors, but they’re the only ones that pass inspection here. And if we open a wall and find rotted jamb framing from decades of salt air, that reframing is a line item we priced as an allowance up front.
Entry door replacement in Hollywood: $1,200-$4,800 installed. Hurricane-rated entry doors: $2,500-$5,500. Large custom openings or sliders: $3,000-$7,000. Whole-home door packages: $6,000-$18,000. Every quote is free, written, and line-itemed. Call (904) 747-8989 to schedule your in-home measure.
What Door Installation Costs in Hollywood
Door installation prices in Hollywood reflect the local reality: HVHZ product requirements, concrete block anchoring, and coastal corrosion patterns. A standard entry door replacement typically runs $1,200 to $2,800 installed. An impact-rated entry door with HVHZ compliance starts around $2,500 and runs to $5,500 depending on size and glass package. French doors or double door retrofits run $3,000 to $7,000, and floor-to-ceiling sliders on ocean-facing condos can reach $8,000 when structural anchoring and association engineering reviews are factored in. Custom openings or oversized entries push toward the top of each range.
The free in-home measure gives you an exact written quote before you commit. We don’t give ballparks over the phone and then “discover” things on site. What we quote is what you pay, unless you approve a change in writing first.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida’s incentive stack for impact doors is real money. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and impact-resistant doors are eligible when they meet the program’s wind-mitigation criteria. The state also exempts Energy-Efficient Windows - Hollywood and impact-resistant doors from sales tax, which saves you roughly 6% on the total job. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of the product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection ($75-$150), many Hollywood homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by an average of about 25% on the windstorm portion of the policy. Programs and carriers set the final numbers, so we can’t guarantee your specific credit or discount, but we’ll point you toward the paperwork and help you document the installation correctly.
One comparison worth making: impact doors versus hurricane shutters. Shutters require you to be home when the storm hits, wrestle panels into place, and store them the rest of the year. Impact doors protect you permanently, with no panels to hang and no pre-storm scramble. We don’t install shutters, but we’ll tell you honestly why most Hollywood homeowners who’ve lived through a few hurricanes land on impact-rated doors as the more practical long-term choice.

FAQs - Door Installation in Hollywood
Because Hollywood sits inside Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and the city’s building inspectors check for the product approval sticker at rough inspection. A standard Florida Product Approved impact door isn’t enough; the approval must explicitly designate HVHZ compliance. Many impact-rated doors sold throughout Florida lack that designation and will fail a Hollywood permit. We verify the approval before the door ever enters your home. Call (904) 747-8989 and we’ll tell you if your current quote is compliant.
Usually, yes. The existing concrete block opening is almost always salvageable. What changes is the framing inside it. Jalousie doors sit in narrow aluminum frames, and a modern impact door needs proper wood or metal buck framing anchored into the block. We price that as an allowance before we start. If the block is in decent shape, no rebuild is needed. If we find cracked block or severe corrosion, we’ll show you photos and get written approval before any additional work.
Two extra layers beyond a single-family home. First, the condo association’s engineering review must sign off on the product’s structural anchoring and wind load calculations. Second, the city of Hollywood requires the association’s approval documentation as part of the permit package. We coordinate both before the old slider comes out. Projects that skip this step get shut down after demolition begins, and you’re left with a plywood-covered opening facing the Atlantic. We don’t let that happen.
You get a photo-documented finding and a written change order to approve before we proceed. Our contracts include allowances for common discoveries, especially on 1950s-1970s Hollywood homes where undersized framing and aluminum wiring are common. We don’t pause the job to renegotiate, and we don’t bury the cost in a vague “miscellaneous” line. You approve the exact amount, in writing, before we touch the framing.
This is what separates a licensed specialist from a big-box retail install: a big-box crew often has no allowance structure, so the quote changes mid-project and you’re stuck. Our Door Installation team builds the inspection and allowance process into the initial quote, so the number you see is the number you can trust.
Yes, in most cases. A hurricane-rated entry door with HVHZ compliance typically qualifies as a wind-mitigation improvement under Florida’s insurance credit framework. After a wind-mitigation inspection, many Hollywood homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by an average of roughly 25% on the windstorm portion. Your carrier sets the final number, so we can’t guarantee a specific discount, but we’ll document the installation correctly and point you to the inspection form. Call (904) 747-8989 for an exact quote, and we’ll walk you through what your insurer will need.
