Why Juniper Windows & Doors Is Margate’s Preferred Door Replacement Company

Margate homeowners call us because we show up with a written price, not a guess. Every door replacement we do in communities like Fairway Estates and the homes along Lakeside Drive starts the same way: we measure the opening, check the jamb, confirm the wind zone requirements, and hand you a line-item number that won’t move. Sean Mackey leads our team, and he’s built the business around one standard: if it’s not done right, we make it right for a full 365 days, parts and labor, in writing.

Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, so when someone knocks on a Margate door to replace it, you know exactly who’s standing there. Dispatch and scheduling for Margate are coordinated from our Miami-area South Florida office, but the crews doing the work are local and know Broward County code requirements cold. That matters for exterior doors, because Margate sits inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone and inspections here are not a formality.

Interior Door Replacement in Margate

Interior Door Replacement in Margate typically costs $250 to $700 per door for a standard hollow-core or solid-core slab, including trim and hardware. Homes in older Margate neighborhoods like Coral Bay and the streets off Atlantic Boulevard often have original hollow-core doors from the 1980s and 1990s that have warped, delaminated, or been chewed up by years of humidity and use.

What Gets Replaced

We remove the old slab, reuse the existing jamb when it’s square and solid, and hang the new door with a fresh hinge pack. If the jamb is cracked or the reveal is uneven, we address that before the new door goes up. Most interior replacements take two to four hours per opening.

When It’s Better to Replace Than Repair

A split panel or a hollow-core door with a hole punched through it usually costs more to repair than replace. Margate homeowners doing whole-home interior upgrades often bundle their interior door work with other openings to keep the trim profile consistent room to room.

Interior Door Installation in Margate

Interior Door Installation in Margate covers new openings, not just swaps. That means framing, drywall return, casing, and hardware on a rough opening that didn’t have a door before. Expect to pay $400 to $900 per opening for a pre-hung unit installed, depending on whether it’s a standard 30-inch or a wider passage door.

Pre-Hung vs. Slab

A slab install works when the existing jamb is in good shape. A pre-hung install replaces the jamb and door together, which is the better call when floors in a Margate condo on Boulevard Plaza or a single-family home have settled enough to throw the old jamb out of square.

Hardware and Finishing

We set the hinges, bore for the lockset, and install the strike plate so the latch engages cleanly. Trim and paint are typically handled after install, and we’ll tell you upfront what’s included in your written quote so there’s no gray area when the invoice lands.

Trusted Brands We Service in Margate

We install and service doors from PGT, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux, three brands that hold up in Margate’s heat, humidity, and summer storm cycles. PGT is the workhorse for impact-rated exterior openings, Therma-Tru gives us fiberglass entry doors that don’t warp like wood, and ViewLux covers interior and closet doors with clean sightlines. We keep local stock on common hardware and can order replacement parts for Margate jobs faster because we’re already working these neighborhoods weekly.

Common Door Replacement Problems We See in Margate Homes

• HVHZ non-compliance on exterior doors. Margate sits in Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. An exterior door without a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval number fails inspection, and the homeowner pays twice: once for the wrong door, again for the right one.
• Rusted or corroded jambs and threshold plates. Older Margate homes off West Sample Road and State Road 7 often have original steel jambs that have been pitted by decades of wind-driven rain. A new door bolted to a corroded jamb won’t seal, and the rot spreads into the rough opening.
• Wrong glass spec for west-facing rooms. We see interior door replacements where the homeowner ordered beautiful glass-panel doors without low-E, then realized the afternoon sun off a west exposure turns that room into an oven.
• Doors that sag on settled block foundations. Margate’s flat terrain and sandy base mean some older slab homes settle over time, and the doors are the first thing to bind, stick, or refuse to latch.

Pricing for Door Replacement in Margate, FL

What Door Replacement Costs in Margate

Here’s the honest range for the Margate market. Impact windows generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed, with impact single-hung units at $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings land between $2,500 and $5,000. Whole-home packages typically fall between $8,000 and $25,000, depending on opening count and product line. What moves the price in Margate specifically: the number of openings, the wind zone requirements for your street, floor height on second-story units, and the frame material. We do a free in-home measure and hand you a written quote. No numbers change after that, because the 365-Day Done Right Promise starts with honest math.

Florida Pays You Back

Margate homeowners replacing exterior doors with impact-rated units can stack incentives. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. When you pass a wind-mitigation inspection, the windstorm portion of your premium often drops by an average of around 25% – the inspection itself runs $75 to $150. Programs and carriers set the final numbers, so we’ll point you to the right resources and let you confirm exact figures with them.
