AfterTrusted Door Installation for Hollywood Homeowners
Door Installation in Hollywood typically runs $400 to $2,400 per door, depending on the door type and frame condition. A standard pre-hung entry door replacement usually lands between $700 and $1,500, while custom or pivot doors can exceed $4,500. TruePane Windows & Doors has served Hollywood homeowners since 2008, building on years of glazing craft under founder Dale Kessler, and the phone rings to a live person any hour you call at (863) 334-2933.
We work in Hollywood’s beachside condos, the older ranch homes off Hollywood Boulevard, and the newer builds in Emerald Hills. The humidity and salt air here are hard on door frames and weatherstripping. A door that binds in July or lets a damp breeze through in January is a door that’s out of true, and that’s exactly the problem we fix. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
What Our Door Installation Service Includes
Entry & Swing Doors
An entry door is the first thing you touch when you come home and the last thing you lock at night, so it deserves a careful set. We install steel, fiberglass, and solid wood entry doors, and we measure every opening twice before a single screw goes in. In Hollywood’s older homes, doorways have settled over time, so we shim and square the frame rather than forcing a new door into an out-of-plumb opening. The result is a door that closes with a solid thunk, not a tug.
Double & French Doors
Double doors reveal alignment problems quickly. If the two leaves don’t meet cleanly at the center, or if the astragal drags on the threshold, you lose conditioned air and security at the same time. Our crews set double and French doors as a matched pair, not two singles that happen to share a frame. We check the reveal around all three edges of each leaf before we call the job finished.
Bifold & Folding Doors
Bifold and folding door systems open a room to the outside, which is why Hollywood homeowners put them on patios and pool decks. They are also the most hardware-dependent door style we install. The track, the rollers, the hinges, and the alignment pins all have to work together, and when one component is off by a fraction, the whole door fights back. We set the track dead level and adjust each panel in sequence until the whole system folds and unfolds without hesitation.
Pivot Doors
A pivot door carries its entire weight on top and bottom hinges instead of the side jamb, which lets it be much wider than a standard swing door. Hollywood buyers often choose them for a dramatic front entrance, especially on modern builds in the Lakes and around downtown. The engineering has to be right, because a misaligned pivot door drops or scrapes. Our installers follow the manufacturer’s hardware specs exactly and set the pivot points to the load rating the door requires.
Storm Doors
Here in South Florida, a storm door is not decorative. It is the first line of defense against wind-driven rain and the pressure changes of hurricane season. We install storm doors that meet Florida building code for wind load, and we anchor the frames into the rough opening, not just the trim. The door protects the entry door behind it, but only if the frame is secured correctly from the start.
Arched & Custom Doors
An arched or custom door is a one-of-a-kind piece that has to fit a one-of-a-kind opening. We template custom openings and work with manufacturer lines that can produce true arched tops and custom widths without cutting corners on the blank. This is the work that separates a production installer from a glazier’s shop. Dale Kessler built TruePane on the idea that custom work is where craft matters most, and our custom door installs reflect that.

Brands We Service for Door Installation
We are an authorized installer for, and we have set hundreds of their doors in Hollywood homes, from simple entry units to full folding wall systems. Marvin’s integrity line is a specific favorite for beachside houses, because the fiberglass holds paint and resists the salt haze better than wood in a humid climate. We register the manufacturer’s warranty on every Marvin and Milgard door we set, and we list the warranty duration on the written quote so you know what you’re buying.
Jeld-Wen doors come through our shop regularly as well, especially for budget-conscious replacements that still need to hold up to Florida sun. Whatever brand is on your door today, or whatever brand you choose for the new one, we can install it. Our crew works on the door you bought, not just the ones we sell.
Signs You Need Door Installation Right Now
- The door sticks or binds against the frame in humid weather. Wood and composite doors swell when Hollywood’s summer humidity pushes past 80 percent. If you’re shouldering the door open in August, the slab and frame are out of alignment, and forcing it only wears the hinges faster.
- Daylight is visible around the closed door. Stand inside with the door closed and lights off. If you see light around the edges, the weatherstripping is not sealing, which means your AC is leaking into the street and insects have a standing invitation.
- The door sags and scrapes the threshold when you swing it. This usually means hinge screws have stripped or the jamb has rotted where the hinges seat. New screws in the same holes will not fix it. The fix is new material, and sometimes a new frame entirely.
- You can hear street noise through the closed door. A properly installed exterior door blocks a meaningful amount of sound. If you can follow conversations from your porch, the door is not sealed, likely at the threshold sweep or the perimeter weatherstripping.
- The door is original to a home built before 1992. Pre-Andrew construction did not meet the wind-load standards current Florida code requires. A door from that era will not pass a storm inspection, and a replacement is a genuine safety improvement, not a cosmetic upgrade.
Our Door Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Measure and inspect the rough opening. Before you see a quote, our technician measures the opening height, width, and diagonal, then checks for rot, termite damage, and settling. An out-of-square opening changes everything about the job, and hiding that from you until install day is how homeowners get surprised with change orders. We do not do that.
- 2
Review your options on paper, side by side. We bring manufacturer spec sheets and quotes from more than a dozen lines, including Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, and PGT. You see the door, the hardware, the warranty durations, and the total price on one page. You decide, not a salesman’s pitch.
- 3
Schedule the install with a crew that arrives on time. We dispatch background-checked, uniformed technicians, not subcontractors we’ve never met. We’ll be there when we say, and the team will walk you through what they’re doing before they start.
- 4
Set the door, shim the frame, and adjust until it swings true. We use cedar shims, not leftover scraps, and we fasten the jamb with screws that bite into the studs. Every door gets adjusted for an even reveal, a centered deadbolt, and a threshold that seals. If the door is not square to the frame, we pull it and start again.
- 5
Register both warranty layers before we leave the driveway. The Keystone Standard is our rule, not a slogan. The manufacturer’s warranty and our Done Right Promise are both filled out and registered in writing before the truck pulls away. If it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork, no arguing. You can call (863) 334-2933 and speak to a person today.

Frequently Asked Questions - Door Installation in Hollywood
Door installation is the process of removing an old door and frame, preparing the rough opening, and setting a new pre-hung door or slab so it swings square and seals correctly. In Hollywood, where humidity and salt air are constant, proper installation also means choosing materials and hardware that hold up to the climate. A door that’s installed out of true will bind, leak air, and wear out its own hardware within a few seasons.
A standard single entry door takes our crew about four to five hours from removal to final adjustment. Double doors and folding systems take a full day. Custom or arched doors can take two days when the opening needs modification or the frame needs rebuilding. Most jobs are completed in a single visit, and we’ll tell you the timeline before we start, not after.
Door installation in Hollywood runs $400 to $2,400 for typical entry doors, with custom and multi-panel systems going higher. A basic slab swap is $400 to $800, a full entry replacement is $700 to $1,500, and French or bifold doors run $1,800 to $6,000. The only way to get an exact number for your house is a free measurement and frame inspection. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll give you a written line-item quote with no obligation.
