Why Juniper Windows & Doors Is Delray Beach’s Preferred Door Replacement Company
We’re the windows-and-doors specialist inside the Relay Home Co. family, and doors are all we do. No general remodeling, no side trades. That focus means our crews know exactly what a Delray Beach door opening has to survive: salt aerosol off the Atlantic, wind-driven rain off the Intracoastal, and afternoon sun that bakes western-facing entries along Linton Boulevard and Atlantic Avenue. Sean Mackey leads our team, and he’s built a reputation around one thing: the written price. If the number changes at the door, that’s not us.
Every Delray Beach job gets the Relay Standard. Book in a tap, live arrival time, before-and-after photos, written price, digital invoice. And every installation is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, parts and labor, in writing. If something isn’t right, we make it right. That’s not marketing language. It’s a named guarantee on every project we do in Delray Beach. Our phone is answered by a live person 24/7 too, so when your door stops latching at 9 p.m., you won’t sit in a voicemail queue. You’ll talk to a human who can pull up your file.
Door Installers in Delray Beach
Door Replacement installers here do more than hang a slab. They strip the old jamb, shim it square, set a sealed sill pan, flash the rough opening against wind-driven rain, and reset the casing so the whole assembly drains water away from the subfloor. Door installers in Delray Beach encounter what inland crews never see: corroded hinges seized into the jamb on homes east of the Intracoastal, where salt aerosol has eaten the factory hardware inside five years. We pull the entire unit and rebuild the opening properly.
Entry door installation in Delray Beach runs $1,200 to $3,800 depending on slab material, sidelites, and whether you’re adding impact-rated glass. A French door or wide patio opening lands in the $2,500 to $5,500 range. We install Therma-Tru fiberglass entry systems, PGT impact doors, and ViewLux sliding glass packages, and we stock stainless hinges, marine-grade thresholds, and composite jambs for the Delray Beach jobs that need them.
Impact-Rated Entry Doors
East of Federal Highway and anywhere in a wind-borne debris zone, we recommend impact-rated glass in door slabs and sidelites. If your wind mitigation report doesn’t credit the opening, you’re leaving premium savings on the table and possibly facing a re-do at resale. We match design pressure ratings to the exact opening, never above +/-100 PSF, and verify Florida Product Approval on every unit.
Low-E and Insulated Glass Upgrades
You don’t have to take clear glass. We replace door glass with Low-E insulated glass units that cut heat gain on west-facing entries along West Atlantic Avenue, and we can swap old storm-door panes for impact-rated, Low-E laminate in a single visit. The upgrade is straightforward, it’s covered by the same written-price standard, and it usually adds less than you’d think.
Door Contractors in Delray Beach
Door contractors in Delray Beach need to be more than a crew with a level and a caulk gun. The coastal block between the ocean and the Intracoastal is a salt-aerosol zone, and a door contractor who specs plain zinc hinges there is saying a lot about their attention to detail. We spec 316 stainless exterior hardware and marine-grade finishes on every Delray Beach replacement east of Federal Highway, even when the slab itself is identical to what we’d put in Boynton Beach. Same door, different hardware spec, completely different lifespan.
Full frame replacement with composite jambs, stainless hinges, a marine-grade sill pan, and an impact-rated Therma-Tru slab runs $2,400 to $5,200 in Delray Beach. A slab-only swap on an interior-budget job might land around $1,100 to $1,800 if the existing jamb is still square and dry. We’ll tell you which route fits your opening and your wind mitigation report, and we’ll put either number in writing.
Coastal Hardware Specs
When the existing hinges have rusted into the jamb, we don’t patch. We reset the opening with a composite jamb, stainless hinges, and a sealed sill pan that drains water away from the subfloor, then finish with a marine-grade threshold. The cheap inland fix, where a contractor reuses old hardware and relies on caulk alone, fails within a few years out here. We’d rather do the job once.
Storm Door and Sidelite Service
Non-rated glass in sidelites is a common flag on Delray Beach wind mitigation inspections. We replace those panes with impact-rated laminate glazing and credit the full opening, so your report reflects what’s actually installed. That’s a real money mover at resale and on your windstorm premium.
Trusted Brands We Service in Delray Beach
We carry and service CGI, CWS, and ECO Window Systems door lines in the Delray Beach market, alongside PGT, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. That’s eight product lines total, which means the right door for a 1960s ranch in Lake Ida is not the same as the right door for a 2010s townhome off West Linton. We stock stainless hardware and marine-grade thresholds in our South Florida inventory, so coastal-spec parts aren’t a special order. If you have a CGI or PGT door that’s sagging or a Therma-Tru sill that’s pitted from salt, we service it and we do it quickly.
Common Door Replacement Problems We See in Delray Beach Homes
- Salt-corroded hinges and thresholds on east-side homes. In the salt-aerosol zone between Federal Highway and the ocean, zinc-plated steel hardware rusts through in three to five years. The door slab still looks fine, but the screws have seized into the jamb and the threshold is pitted through the anodizing. We swap in 316 stainless and marine-grade sills so the corrosion cycle can’t repeat.
- Wind-driven rain leaking under inland-spec installations. Delray gets afternoon squalls that push rain almost horizontally against west-facing entries. Caulk-only sill sealing opens up, water wicks into the jamb, and the subfloor rots from the inside. We set a sealed sill pan and flash the opening so water drains out, not in.
- Non-impact glass in sidelites killing the wind mitigation credit. A door with clear, non-rated glass in the sidelites fails a large-missile rating check. When the inspection flags it, the homeowner loses the windstorm-premium credit and often has to re-do the glass before closing a sale. We replace those panes with impact-rated laminate and credit the full opening.
- Older homes with out-of-square rough openings. Homes built in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s across neighborhoods like Tropic Isles and Seacrest often have settled framing. A new pre-hung unit won’t simply drop in. We shim square, rebuild the jamb leg, and reset the casing, then install the slab so it latches clean and deadbolts without drag.
Pricing for Door Replacement in Delray Beach, FL
A basic entry slab swap in Delray Beach starts around $1,100 to $1,800. A full pre-hung impact-rated door with composite jamb, 316 stainless hardware, and a marine-grade sill pan runs $2,400 to $5,200 east of Federal Highway. Large openings, French doors, or custom configurations with sidelites land in the $4,500 to $7,500 range. The coastal-spec hardware and marine finishes add roughly 15 to 25 percent over the inland-spec version of the same door, and that gap is the cheapest money you’ll ever spend on a door in Delray Beach. Call (682) 281-2168 for a free in-home measure and a written, line-by-line price.
What Door Replacement Costs in Delray Beach
For context on the broader window market, impact windows in Palm Beach County generally run $800 to $1,500 per unit installed; impact single-hungs run $900 to $1,800; large or custom openings run $2,500 to $5,000; and whole-home packages run $8,000 to $25,000 and up. Doors sit in a similar pricing band. What moves the number in Delray Beach specifically: opening count, wind zone (east of Federal Highway versus inland), floor height, and whether the frame material is wood, fiberglass, or composite. We’ll give you a written quote after one visit, and that number doesn’t move unless the scope changes in writing.
Florida Pays You Back
Delray Beach homeowners have real incentives on the table, and they stack. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can reach $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades on your primary residence. Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors, which drops the out-of-pocket number immediately. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30 percent of product cost on qualifying units, up to $600 per year. And a wind-mitigation inspection, typically $75 to $150, often unlocks windstorm-premium credits that average around 25 percent on the windstorm portion of your policy. Every program has its own rules, and carriers set their own final numbers, so we won’t promise a dollar figure. We’ll tell you what your opening qualifies for and let the paperwork do the rest. One more comparison worth making: permanent impact-rated doors versus hanging hurricane shutters every storm. Shutters only work if you’re home, they’re up, and the wind hasn’t already started. Impact-rated doors are always on, no panels to haul out of the garage, no hardware to corrode in the salt air. For a Delray Beach homeowner east of the Intracoastal, the permanent spec wins.

FAQs About Door Replacement in Delray Beach
Because east of Federal Highway, Delray Beach sits in a salt-aerosol zone, and the hardware spec changes. Zinc-plated hinges, painted-steel screws, and standard anodized thresholds that last a decade inland corrode here in three to five years. We substitute 316 stainless hardware, marine-grade sill pans, and composite jambs, which adds roughly 15 to 25 percent to the hardware line but buys back decades of service life. Inland-spec hardware would cost less today and more in five years when the door seizes shut or leaks at the sill. Call (682) 281-2168 for an exact quote on your opening.
If your home is in a wind-borne debris zone, which most of Delray Beach east of I-95 is, then yes, you need impact-rated glass in any door slab or sidelite that carries glass. A non-rated pane fails a large-missile rating check, you lose the wind mitigation credit on that opening, and you may be forced to re-do the glass at resale. We match design pressure ratings to your exact opening, never above +/-100 PSF, and we’ll show you the Florida Product Approval on the unit before it goes in. Call (682) 281-2168 and we’ll check your opening.
Hardware fails first. Hinge screws rust into the jamb, thresholds pit through the anodizing, and the caulk joint at the sill opens up under wind-driven rain, letting water wick into the subfloor. The slab itself is usually fine. That’s why we spec 316 stainless exterior hardware and marine-grade finishes on every Delray Beach door replacement east of Federal Highway. On a canal-front block off George Bush Boulevard in the Pineapple Grove area, our crew pulled a five-year-old Therma-Tru whose steel hinge screws had rusted into the jamb and whose threshold had pitted through. We reset it with a composite jamb, stainless hinges, a marine-grade sill pan, and an impact-rated fiberglass slab with impact glazing sidelites. The corrosion that killed the first door cannot repeat. Call (682) 281-2168 and we’ll inspect your hardware.
Yes. We replace clear glass in door slabs, sidelites, and storm doors with Low-E insulated glass units that cut heat gain on sun-exposed entries along West Atlantic Avenue and Lake Ida Road. If the opening is in a wind-borne debris zone, we make it an impact-rated Low-E laminate so you get the energy benefit and the wind mitigation credit together. The upgrade is modest, it’s covered by the same written-price standard, and it usually completes in a single visit once your units arrive. Call (682) 281-2168 for a price on your glass.
We install and service PGT, Therma-Tru, ViewLux, CGI, CWS, ECO Window Systems, ES Windows, and Mr-Glass products in the Delray Beach market.

We stock stainless hardware, marine-grade thresholds, and composite jambs in our South Florida inventory, so coastal-spec parts for a Delray Beach repair are on the truck, not backordered. Call (682) 281-2168 and tell us what’s on the door now.
