What Our Sliding & Patio Doors Service Includes
We don’t just swap a door slab and call it done. A sliding or patio door is a system: track, rollers, frame, weatherstripping, glass, and in Miami, impact rating. If any one of those is off, the door fights you every time you touch it. Here’s what we handle.
Patio Sliding Doors
The Affordable Sliding & Patio Doors in Miami, FL we install make the standard patio slider the most used exterior opening in a Miami home. It gets opened every morning for coffee and slammed shut when the afternoon storm rolls through. We replace the full unit or repair the existing one: bent tracks, worn rollers, broken handles, failed seals. We measure twice, set the frame square, and adjust rollers so the door glides with one hand, not two.

Panoramic Sliding Systems
Panoramic systems use multiple panels that stack or pocket to open an entire wall to the outdoors. In Miami, that means your view opens up to the yard or the water. We install multi-track systems with proper header support and drainage, because a wide opening in a coastal climate is only as good as its flashing and sill design. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see the exact panel count, glass rating, and hardware cost.

Heavy-Duty Sliding Doors
Best Sliding & Patio Doors in Miami, FL include heavy-duty systems built for panels that weigh two or three times more than a standard patio door. They’re common in Miami for wide openings with impact glass or for doors that face the water. We set heavy-duty tracks on reinforced sills and size the rollers to the actual panel weight. A heavy door on light hardware is a door that eventually grinds its own track into shards.

Pocket & Barn Doors
Pocket sliding doors disappear into the wall, and barn doors slide on exposed hardware. Both are used more and more in Miami homes to save floor space or get a particular look. Pocket door repair is unforgiving because the hardware lives inside the wall cavity. We square the opening before we hang anything, because a pocket door that drags will tear itself apart inside the wall within a few years.

Screen Door Installation
Miami nights are for open windows and sliding screens. A torn screen lets in mosquitoes and no-see-ums. We build and install sliding screen doors sized to your actual opening, not a generic store size. Frames are aluminum, and the mesh is cut tight so it doesn’t sag after one season of humidity. We also replace screen door rollers and handles on existing units.

Brands We Service for Sliding & Patio Doors
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and CWS, three names that show up repeatedly in Miami because they’re built for Florida building codes and sustained coastal wind. PGT sliding doors are workhorses we’ve installed in homes from Aventura to Apopka. We know their frame profiles, their impact glass packages, and their hardware. CGI and CWS make heavy-duty impact doors that hold up to the Miami-Dade wind load requirements, and we register every warranty layer in writing before the job is finished.
We also service and replace doors from Ply Gem and just about any other manufacturer that was sold in South Florida over the last four decades. If you have an older Ply Gem patio slider with a worn track or a failed roller assembly, we can often rebuild the hardware without replacing the whole unit. Whether you have a PGT, CGI, CWS, Ply Gem, or any other make, bring us the model and we’ll quote it square.
Signs You Need Sliding & Patio Doors Right Now
- The door has to be lifted or kicked to move. That means the rollers are shot or the track is bent. Every forced open and close is pulling the frame further out of square. In Miami humidity, once the frame starts to shift, the problem compounds.
- You can see daylight around the closed door. A properly set sliding door seals tight against the jamb. If you can see light, you can also get rain, hot air, and bugs. That gap is also where wind-driven rain enters during a storm.
- The glass is fogged or has condensation between the panes. A failed seal means the insulated glass unit has lost its gas fill. In Miami’s humidity, that fog never goes away on its own. The door is no longer doing its energy job and it won’t recover.
- The track fills with water after a rain. A quick puddle can be a clogged weep hole, but if the water is coming in past the frame, the sill flashing has failed. Left alone, a wet sill rots the subfloor under your door.
- The door is hard to lock or won’t lock at all. A sliding door that can’t be secured is a security opening on the ground floor of your Miami home. Misaligned lock hardware is usually fixable, but it should be fixed the day you notice it.
Our Sliding & Patio Doors Process - Step by Step
- 1
Measure and inspect. We measure every opening twice and check the floor for level before we quote anything. A sliding door hung on an out-of-level floor will never track right. We also inspect the header and the sub-sill for water damage from past leaks.
- 2
Quote on paper, line by line. We show you the door cost, the hardware cost, the labor, and the warranty terms separated out. We’ll quote manufacturer lines side by side so you can compare impact ratings and prices honestly. No mystery numbers on the bill later.
- 3
Install or repair the door. Our uniformed, background-checked technicians remove the old door, set the new frame square and level, and secure it per manufacturer and Miami-Dade code. We adjust rollers, test the seal, and run the door through a full open-close cycle several times.
- 4
Register both warranty layers. The manufacturer warranty and our workmanship warranty get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. Durations are stated on paper. This is the Keystone Standard, and it’s the reason we don’t get warranty fights later.
- 5
Clean up and walk you through. We remove the old door and all debris. Then we walk you through the operation, the locks, and the maintenance basics. If anything is not done right, you have 90 days to tell us, and we make it right with no paperwork and no arguing.
How Much Does Sliding & Patio Doors Cost in Miami?
A basic patio sliding door replacement in Miami runs $1,800-$3,200 for a standard 6-foot opening with non-impact glass. Impact-rated sliding doors, which most Miami homeowners need for code and insurance reasons, start around $2,800 and go up to $4,500 or more for wider openings with PGT or CGI heavy-duty frames. Panoramic systems that open an entire wall are custom jobs and run $8,000-$20,000+ depending on panel count and glass type. Screen door installation is the lowest cost item on the list, typically $250-$600 installed.

What moves the price is the glass package, the size of the opening, and whether the existing frame and floor are still sound. An out-of-square opening or a rotted sub-sill adds labor because we have to correct the structure before we can hang a door. A full tear-out and replacement of a Miami door that’s been leaking for years costs more than a straightforward swap.

Frequently Asked Questions - Sliding & Patio Doors in Miami
Sliding and patio doors are exterior doors that move horizontally on a track instead of swinging on hinges. In Miami homes, they’re the standard connection between a living space and a patio, yard, or balcony. They come in two-panel, three-panel, pocket, and panoramic configurations, and many are impact-rated for hurricane wind and debris. We replace and repair all of them.
A standard patio sliding door replacement in Miami takes about half a day, and most jobs are completed in a single visit. If the existing frame is still square and the floor underneath is sound, we can usually set the new door and have it operating before the afternoon storm rolls in. Custom panoramic systems take longer because of the additional structural work and panel count.
Expect to pay $1,800-$4,500 for a standard sliding door replacement in Miami, with impact glass pushing the price to the higher end. Large panoramic and multi-panel systems run $8,000-$20,000 or more depending on size and glass package. Call (754) 238-2201 for an exact quote for your opening. Estimates are free and line-itemed.
