What Our Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Service Includes
Sliding doors fail in predictable ways in Hollywood. The humidity swells wood frames. The salt air pits cheap rollers. The afternoon thunderstorms find every gap in a worn weatherstrip. Here’s what we actually do when we come out, and when each service makes sense.
Sliding Glass Door Repair
Most sliding door problems in Hollywood come down to three things: flattened rollers, a scored track, or a frame that has settled out of square. We replace rollers with sealed bearing units that won’t grind after one wet season, and we dress or replace the track so the door glides instead of shudders. If the frame has settled, we re-shim and reset it rather than forcing the door to work against a bad opening. A repair like this usually runs $180-$340 and we complete most of them in one visit.

Patio Door Roller & Track Replacement
When a 200-pound sliding panel rides on worn rollers, every open and close grinds metal against metal. You’ll hear it first, a rumble that wasn’t there last year. We pull the panel, replace both roller assemblies with load-rated hardware, and clean or replace the bottom track so the door runs quiet again. Hollywood’s coastal air means we use stainless components where it matters, because chrome-plated parts rust out in two seasons.

Sliding Door Lock & Latch Repair
A sliding door that won’t lock is a security problem and an insurance problem. The latch mechanisms on sliding doors are often the first thing to fail, especially when the door has been forced or the strike plate has shifted. We replace the lock body, realign the strike, and sometimes add a secondary foot lock for doors that need more than the original hardware. You should not be able to lift a locked panel out of its track, and we check for exactly that on every call.

Weatherstripping & Seal Replacement
The wool pile and vinyl gaskets around a sliding door break down under Florida sun and let conditioned air out and rain in. You’ll feel a draft near the frame or see water staining on the floor after a hard storm. We replace the weatherstripping with materials matched to the door brand and the exposure, then test the seal with a water wand before we call the job done. In Hollywood’s rainy season, this is one of the highest-value repairs we do.

Sliding Door Frame & Sill Repair
Aluminum frames corrode, vinyl frames crack, and wood frames rot when water sits against them. The sill is usually the first place to fail because it takes the brunt of every storm. We cut out rotted or corroded sections, splice in new framing, and re-anchor the sill so the door sits dead level. If the damage is beyond repair, we’ll tell you honestly and quote a replacement rather than patching something that will fail again in a year.

Complete Sliding Glass & Patio Door Replacement
When a door is past service, we replace it with a new unit sized to the actual opening, not the opening someone guessed at twenty years ago. We measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and install to the manufacturer’s published spec so both warranty layers stay valid. A sliding patio door replacement in Hollywood starts around $1,400 installed for a basic vinyl unit and ranges up from there based on glass package, frame material, and impact rating.
Most jobs we complete in a single visit. The exception is a full replacement where the door has to be ordered, and we’ll tell you the lead time up front and show up when we say we will.

Brands We Service for Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
We’ve serviced hundreds of ES Windows sliding doors across Hollywood and Broward County, and we know their track profiles and roller specs well enough to order the right part the first time. ES Windows builds a heavy extruded-aluminum frame that handles coastal exposure well, but even their hardware wears out under daily use and salt air. We keep their common roller assemblies and keepers on the truck so most ES Windows repairs are done in one trip.
Therma-Tru sliding patio doors show up on a lot of Hollywood homes built in the last fifteen years, and we know their seal and sill details cold. We also work regularly on ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass units, which means we’ve seen the specific failure points each brand develops in this climate. If your door came from a manufacturer we haven’t named, that’s fine too. A sliding door is a sliding door, and we service them all.
Signs You Need Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Right Now
- The door grinds or shudders when you open it. That’s a roller failure, and every continued use scarves the track deeper. What starts as a $35 roller replacement turns into a track replacement if you ignore the grinding.
- You can see daylight around the frame. Gaps around the panel mean your weatherstripping is shot and your air conditioning is leaking out the door frame. In Hollywood’s humidity, that gap also lets in moisture that rots the framing behind the trim.
- The door won’t lock or the latch doesn’t catch. A sliding door that won’t secure is an open invitation and a liability on your homeowners policy. The fix is usually simple, but it needs to be done before someone tests the door.
- Water pools on the floor after a storm. The sill or the weatherstripping has failed, and water in the wall cavity leads to mold and rotted subfloor. Hollywood’s wet season makes this a now problem, not a next-month problem.
- The frame is visibly corroded or the glass is fogged. Failed seals between the panes mean the insulating gas is gone and the glass will never be clear again. Corroded frames mean structural weakness at the point that matters most.
If any of these sound familiar, call (863) 334-2933. We’ll tell you over the phone whether it sounds like a repair or a replacement, and we’ll schedule a visit that works around your day.

You call and a person answers. No phone trees, no callbacks, no regional call center. You’ll talk to someone who knows sliding doors and can tell you whether your problem sounds like a roller, a track, or a frame issue before we even roll a truck.
- 2
We show up on time, uniformed and background-checked. Our technicians measure every opening twice, check the door’s square, and diagnose the actual failure rather than selling you a door you might not need. We carry the common parts for the brands we service, so repairs usually happen the same day.

You get a written quote before any work starts. The price we quote is the price on the bill. No surprise line items, no change orders, no “while we’re in there” additions. You approve the number, then we work.
- 4
We do the work to manufacturer spec and register the warranties. For replacements, we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. If the pane is not true, the job is not done, and we don’t call it done until the door glides, locks, and seals.

You get the Done Right Promise. If anything isn’t right within 90 days, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing, no fine print. That’s the Keystone Standard on every job we do in Hollywood.
How Much Does Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Cost in Hollywood?
A typical sliding door repair in Hollywood runs $180-$340 depending on what failed. Roller replacement with track cleaning is on the lower end of that range. A full lock and keeper replacement lands in the middle. Adding weatherstripping all the way around the panel pushes toward the top of the range. These are real numbers we quote every week in this market, not national averages pulled from a website.
Full replacement is a different conversation. A basic vinyl sliding patio door installed in Hollywood starts around $1,400. An aluminum impact-rated door like an ES Windows or PGT unit runs $3,500-$7,000 installed depending on size and glass package. The factors that move the number are the door width, the frame material, whether the opening needs reframing, and whether you need impact glass for code compliance or insurance credits.
The way to avoid overpaying is to get the quote in writing with every line item separated. That’s how we work. You’ll see the door, the hardware, the labor, and the disposal separated on paper. If someone quotes you a lump sum without breaking it down, ask why. A free estimate from TruePane means a written, line-item quote you can compare against any other bid, and we’ll walk you through what matters before you decide.

Frequently Asked Questions – Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Hollywood
Sliding glass and patio door service is the repair, tuning, or replacement of the door panel, track, rollers, locks, seals, and frame that make up a sliding door system. In Hollywood, that usually means fixing doors that have been attacked by salt air, humidity, and daily use. TruePane Windows & Doors handles everything from a single roller replacement to a full impact-rated door installation.
Most sliding door repairs we do in Hollywood are completed in one visit lasting one to three hours. Roller replacements, lock repairs, and weatherstripping are same-visit jobs as long as we have the parts, which we usually do for the brands we commonly service. Full door replacements take longer because the unit has to be ordered, and we’ll give you that timeline before you commit. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll tell you what to expect for your specific door.

Yes, a door that won’t close or lock is one of the most common calls we get in Hollywood.

We’ll diagnose the cause and fix it right, not just force the door back into place. Call (863) 334-2933 and describe what’s happening, and we’ll tell you if it sounds like a quick fix or something bigger.
Every job is covered by our Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right, no paperwork and no arguing.

Clear a six-foot path to the door and move any furniture, plants, or decorations away from the track on both sides. If you have pets, secure them in another room so our technician can work safely. If the door is off its track or the glass is broken, don’t try to move it yourself. We’ll handle the heavy lifting when we arrive.
