Our Sliding & Patio Doors Services in Lantana
Patio Sliding Doors
Patio sliders are the most common door we replace in Lantana, and for good reason. The original aluminum sliders from the 1950s through 1970s were never built for salt air. In Lantana, homes sit within 1.5 miles of the Atlantic and directly on the Intracoastal Waterway. That’s continuous corrosion on tracks, rollers, and jambs. We install impact-rated patio sliders that meet Palm Beach County’s 155 mph wind-borne debris requirement, with marine-grade hardware that won’t seize up after two humid summers. Typical installed cost in Lantana runs $2,800 to $4,800 depending on opening size and door line.
Panoramic Sliding Systems
For Lantana homeowners with water views, panoramic sliding systems replace a wall of fixed glass and one small door with full-width moving panels. We’ve installed these on properties facing the Intracoastal where the goal is maximum light without sacrificing impact protection. Expect $12,000 to $28,000 for a multi-panel panoramic system in Lantana, depending on span and brand. ES Windows and ECO Window Systems both make panoramic lines we’ve quoted side by side on paper so homeowners see exactly what they’re buying.
Heavy-Duty Sliding Doors
Heavy-duty sliders use reinforced frames and thicker glass packages. In Lantana’s wind-borne debris region, these aren’t optional when the opening exceeds eight feet or faces east toward the ocean. We replaced a salt-corroded 1972 aluminum slider on East Ocean Avenue with a ViewLux heavy-duty impact-rated slider. The original jamb had rusted through at the threshold and the sash wouldn’t lock. We rebuilt the opening with pressure-treated bucks, flashed with butyl tape, and installed a fusion-welded frame rated for 155 mph wind-borne debris. The Town of Lantana inspector signed off the same week because our permit package already had the NOA and product approval numbers.
Pocket & Barn Doors
Pocket doors save floor space in Lantana’s smaller CBS homes where every square foot counts. But retrofitting a pocket door into a concrete block wall is real framing work, not a trim swap. We handle the structural modifications, the header, the track, and the impact-rated door to match. Barn doors, whether interior or exterior, get the same attention to track quality and leveling. If a barn door binds or drifts, it was installed out of true. We don’t leave that.
Screen Door Installation
Lantana’s salt air destroys screen frames faster than any inland location in Palm Beach County. We replace patio screen doors with powder-coated aluminum that resists oxidation, and we match the track to your existing slider. Screen replacement runs $250 to $650 per door in Lantana. our maintenance check covers screen door alignment if yours is sticking but not yet shot.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lantana
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and in Lantana we stock replacement parts for the brands homeowners actually have:, PGT, and CGI. For impact-rated sliders, we frequently quote CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems because their Florida Product Approvals are current and their marine-grade hardware holds up against Intracoastal salt spray. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, so you see the real trade-off between price and warranty. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before we leave the driveway.
Common Sliding & Patio Doors Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Corroded original aluminum frames: Homes built in Lantana’s 1950s to 1970s housing boom still have original sliders with frames that oxidize at the salt-facing jamb within a decade. The sash binds, droops, or drops out of track entirely. By the time the door won’t lock, the frame is usually too far gone to repair cost-effectively.
- Single-pane non-impact glass: A non-impact slider in Lantana’s wind-borne debris region can shatter from flying debris even in a Category 1 storm. That leaves the interior exposed and wind-driven water pouring through the opening. Replacement with an impact-rated door is the only code-compliant fix.
- Seized hardware from salt spray: Cheap replacement sliders without marine-grade hardware seize up within two to three years, especially on east- and south-facing patios near the Intracoastal. Rollers, locks, and handles all fail faster in Lantana than inland communities like Greenacres or Wellington.
- Failed thermal seals from humidity: South Florida humidity combined with constant temperature swings causes seal failure in older dual-pane sliders. Fogging between panes is the tell. Once the seal goes, the door loses its insulating value and the glass eventually needs full replacement.

FAQs - Sliding & Patio Doors in Lantana
A sliding patio door in Lantana must be rated for 155 mph wind-borne debris impact as defined by Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region requirements. That means impact-rated glass and a frame tested to withstand a 9-pound 2×4 traveling at 34 mph. The door’s Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA (Notice of Acceptance) number must match the exact model installed. We include this documentation in every Lantana quote because the town’s building department won’t issue a permit without it. Call (850) 801-5596 with your door size and we’ll tell you which rated models fit your budget.
Lantana operates its own municipal building department with a separate permit intake and inspection queue from Palm Beach County. The Town requires product approval documentation for every impact-rated sliding door before permit issuance, unlike nearby unincorporated areas where a single countywide approval covers most jobs. If the NOA or Florida Product Approval number for the exact door model isn’t in the permit package, the submission stalls for days. We pull Lantana permits routinely and schedule around the town’s inspection timeline, so the job doesn’t sit waiting. Call (850) 801-5596 and ask us about Lantana’s permit process for your specific opening.
Lantana’s entire 2.5-square-mile footprint sits directly on the Intracoastal Waterway and within roughly 1.5 miles of the Atlantic. That means year-round salt spray oxidizes aluminum frames and corrodes hardware and fasteners. Even the most inland home in town gets continuous marine air. Inland communities like Greenacres and Wellington simply don’t expose door components to the same corrosive load. The fix is a slider built with marine-grade hardware and a fusion-welded frame, not just any impact-rated door. Call (850) 801-5596 for a door that won’t corrode out in a decade.
Yes, a properly permitted and documented impact-rated sliding door can reduce windstorm insurance premiums on Lantana homes, but only if the paperwork proves compliance. Insurers in Florida require proof of installation, which means the permit record, the product approval number, and the final inspection all need to be in order. A door installed without a permit or without the NOA on file does nothing for your premium and may not hold up in a claim. We register both warranty layers and leave you with the permit and product documentation. Call (850) 801-5596 and we’ll walk you through what your insurer needs.
Look for fogging or condensation between the glass panes, which means the thermal seal has broken and water vapor has entered the airspace. You may also see visible oxidation or pitting on the aluminum frame at the threshold, especially on east- and south-facing doors. If the sash doesn’t lock cleanly or drags when sliding, the frame has likely twisted or the rollers have corroded. Any of these signs in a Lantana home means the door is on borrowed time. Call (850) 801-5596 for a free inspection and an honest word on whether repair makes sense or replacement is the better money.
