Fast, Reliable Door Installation Across Jupiter
Door installation in Jupiter, FL typically runs $1,800 to $6,400 for an entry door and $2,800 to $11,000 for impact-rated double French doors, with most jobs completed in one to two days once the door arrives. Those numbers shift once we open the wall and find what’s actually behind the old frame: undersized rough openings, salt-damaged jambs, or pre-2002 construction that triggers a permit upgrade the moment a door comes out. TruePane Windows & Doors has been working these older Jupiter homes long enough to know that what you see on the surface is rarely what you’re paying for. Call (754) 238-2201 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk the opening with you before we quote a thing.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Jupiter’s Preferred Door Installation Company
The short answer: we are led by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier who started this company in 2008 out of a principle that out-of-true installs and voided warranties were problems worth fixing permanently. Years of craft tradition runs through how we work, and the founding rule on Dale’s whiteboard still governs every job: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Jupiter homeowners tend to call us after a previous contractor got the paperwork wrong. The confusion between Palm Beach County Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA is constant on the barrier island and along the Loxahatchee, and we settle it on the first visit. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice before anyone talks price. Then they quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, so you can see exactly what you’re buying.
Every job is covered by the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing, no fine print that covers neither.
Our Door Installation Services in Jupiter
We cover the full range of residential Door Installation for Jupiter homes, including the older CBS construction along US-1 and the newer builds in Abacoa and the gated golf communities. Three services matter most here: entry doors, double and French doors, and storm doors. Each one behaves differently in Jupiter’s salt-air environment.
Entry & Swing Doors
A new entry door in Jupiter is a weather seal first and a style choice second. We install fiberglass, wood, and steel entry systems with impact-rated glass where the code requires it. Homes within a mile of the Jupiter Inlet need thermally broken frames and 316 marine-grade stainless hardware as the baseline, not an upgrade. Anything less fails fast.

Double & French Doors
Double French doors are common on Jupiter’s 1980s and 1990s concrete-block homes, and most of the original units are single-pane aluminum with failed seals or warped frames from two decades of humidity swings. We replace them with impact-rated, thermally broken systems sized properly for the opening. If the existing rough opening is undersized for a modern impact door, we reframe before we install; putting a new door in a bad opening is how you get binding in July and fog between panes in January.

Storm Doors
A storm door in Jupiter is about salt and sun, not just keeping an outer layer of weather protection. We install storm doors with marine-grade hardware and powder-coated frames that hold up to the onshore breeze off the Atlantic. If your current storm door’s closer has seized or the handle pits within a few years, that’s 304 stainless failing; we specify 316 and the conversation usually ends there.

Pivot Doors
Pivot doors show up in Jupiter’s custom builds and modern renovations, often in Abacoa or along the Intracoastal. They’re heavy and hinge-bound, and the structural load runs through the floor and header instead of traditional side hinges. We set pivot doors by checking the floor structure and header framing first. If the opening can’t take the point loads, we say so before the door is ordered. A square deal means knowing what the frame can carry.

Trusted Brands We Service in Jupiter
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including CGI, PGT, and ES Windows, all of which carry Florida Product Approval for Palm Beach County wind loads. We quote these side by side on paper, with each brand’s warranty duration stated in writing, so a Jupiter homeowner can compare what they’re actually paying for. We also stock common hardware and seal parts locally for Jupiter customers, which means most repairs and adjustments don’t wait on a freight truck from out of state. If you need a roller, hinge, or handle matched to a door we didn’t install, we can usually source it within a day or two.
Common Door Installation Problems We See in Jupiter Homes
Every older home in Jupiter has a story behind the door. These are the four we hear most often, and the ones the previous contractor usually missed.
- Salt-pitted hardware on sliding and French doors. Standard 304 stainless rollers and handles pit and seize within three to five years near the Jupiter Inlet. The door sticks, the lock eventually fails, and someone quotes you a whole new door when the real fix is 316 marine-grade hardware and a properly sealed jamb.
- Fogged glass in double French doors and sliders. Fog between panes on a 1980s or 1990s Jupiter door means the seal failed and the insulating gas is gone. You can’t buff that out; it’s a sealed-unit failure, and on older aluminum frames it usually makes more sense to replace the whole door than to chase a retrofit.
- Undersized rough openings in pre-2002 concrete-block homes. Jupiter homes built before the post-Hurricane Andrew code update often have rough openings sized for the original single-pane aluminum door. Modern impact-rated doors are thicker and heavier; they won’t fit without reframing, and shoving one in with trim screws is how you get a door that binds and a frame that rots from the inside.
- Rot and water damage hidden behind the old jamb. The original flashing tape on a 1980s door has usually failed by now. By the time the jamb feels soft to the touch, the moisture has been working on the sheathing for years. We open the wall, show you what’s there, and price the repair before anything gets covered back up.
Pricing for Door Installation in Jupiter, FL
Here are the honest ranges for the Jupiter market, as of this writing. A standard entry door with no structural surprises runs $1,800 to $4,200 installed. A double French door in impact-rated glass runs $2,800 to $11,000 depending on brand, size, and whether the opening needs reframing. A storm door runs $600 to $1,800. Pivot doors start around $5,000 and move up quickly with size and hardware.
What changes the price in Jupiter specifically: proximity to the inlet drives hardware upgrades (316 stainless instead of 304), pre-2002 construction drives permit and framing work, and termite or water damage behind the jamb drives material and labor you can’t see until the wall is open. We write allowances into our contracts for exactly those unknowns, and any change order is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. Call (754) 238-2201 to schedule a free estimate. You’ll get a written line-item quote, not a number pulled out of the air.

FAQs - Door Installation in Jupiter
Yes, in most cases. If your home predates the 2002 Florida building code changes, any door replacement that changes the opening’s size or impacts the wall triggers a permit review, and the new door must meet current Palm Beach County wind-load requirements. That’s not a burden; it’s the point. We pull permits, install to the approved plan, and pass inspection before the job is closed out. If you’re in a pre-2002 home, expect the permit conversation on day one, not after the old door is already in the truck.
Because you’re in a marine environment, and standard 304 stainless hardware pitting within three to five years is exactly what happens when salt spray from the Jupiter Inlet and Intracoastal sits on rollers and handles day after day. The fix is 316 marine-grade stainless hardware and thermally broken frames. If a contractor quotes you 304 hardware near the water, they’re bidding the wrong spec. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll show you the difference on paper.
For older aluminum-frame doors, usually yes. The sealed glass unit has failed, which means moisture is inside the panes and the insulating performance is gone. On newer doors you can sometimes replace just the glass unit, but on 1980s and 1990s Jupiter originals, the frame is typically at the end of its service life too. We’ll tell you honestly which side of that line your door is on, and quote both options if both are viable.
No. Jupiter is in Palm Beach County, outside the Miami-Dade High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Your door needs Florida Product Approval for Palm Beach County wind speeds, not a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. This distinction trips up a lot of homeowners and, frankly, a lot of contractors. We carry the Florida Product Approval paperwork on every Jupiter job, and it clears permit review in one pass. Call (754) 238-2201 for an exact quote; estimates are free.
Expect the unexpected, and expect us to have prepared you for it. On a 1980s Jupiter home, opening the wall usually turns up one of three things: an undersized rough opening that needs reframing for a modern impact door, rot or water damage from failed flashing tape, or electrical wiring that must be rerouted before the new jamb goes in. We do an inspection first and write allowances into the contract for exactly these conditions. Any surprise is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. That’s how a square deal works.
Why the Details Matter in Jupiter
Jupiter sits where the Loxahatchee River meets the Atlantic, and that confluence creates one of the most aggressive salt-air corrosion environments in Palm Beach County. Homes within a mile of the inlet aren’t just coastal; they’re in a genuinely marine environment, and the difference shows up in the hardware on your doors. Standard 304 stainless pits and seizes within three to five years. We specify 316 marine-grade stainless and thermally broken, anodized or resin-clad frames as the baseline, not an upcharge. That single decision, made before the door is ordered, is the difference between a door that operates cleanly for twenty years and one that binds and locks up by year four.
On a 1980s CBS home off Center Street near the inlet, our crew pulled an original aluminum single-pane sliding glass door with a failed seal: fog between the panes meant the argon was long gone. The old jamb was swollen from salt-driven moisture, and the rough opening was undersized for any impact-rated unit. We reframed to true rough opening dimensions, flashed the perimeter with butyl tape, and installed a thermally broken, 316-hardware slider with impact-rated glazing rated for Palm Beach County wind speeds. All of it documented for the permit inspection. The homeowner had originally been quoted by a Miami-Dade NOA-only contractor; our Florida Product Approval paperwork cleared the permit in one pass. That’s the kind of thing you only learn by working Jupiter homes long enough to see what’s behind them.
