Window Company in Sunrise, FL
Window and door work in Sunrise, FL comes down to one word: hurricanes. The Florida Building Code requires impact-rated windows and doors throughout the city, which means every job we do here is permitted, engineered to High Velocity Hurricane Zone standards, and tested against large-missile impact. Most of the homes we work on were built between the late 1960s and the 1990s, so we spend a lot of time replacing tired single-pane aluminum windows and sliding glass doors that predate modern wind-load requirements. If you’re wondering where to start, call us at (754) 354-5397 and we’ll walk through what your home actually needs.
Why Sunrise Homes Are Different
Sunrise sits inland from the coast, but that doesn’t soften the requirements. The building code treats the entire city as a wind-borne debris region, so every window and door must carry HVHZ product approvals. We see the consequences of that rule daily: homeowners in neighborhoods like Welleby and New Orleans Homes who bought homes with older, non-impact units now need full replacements before they can sell, refinance, or even renew insurance. The housing stock is overwhelmingly single-family homes and low-rise condos from the 60s through 90s, and the original single-pane aluminum frames are failing in predictable ways. Intense sun breaks down window seals. Humidity and salt air corrode aluminum tracks. Older sliding glass doors bind and stick. A home built in 1985 with original windows is not a repair project; it’s a replacement project waiting on a decision.
Another Sunrise-specific reality: pre-1994 homes often have sliding glass doors with thin aluminum frames and worn rollers that barely meet today’s wind-load standards. A technician can spot them in minutes. If your door takes two hands and a hip-check to open, it’s probably time to talk about an impact-rated replacement.
Our Main Sunrise Services
Sunrise homeowners call us most often for two things: full window replacement when old units fail, and new installations during renovations and additions. Here’s how each works in this city.
Window Replacement in Sunrise
Replacing windows in Sunrise usually means pulling out corroded single-pane aluminum and installing impact-rated vinyl or aluminum units that meet current code. The biggest variable is frame condition: salt air and humidity have been working on these openings for decades. We check the rough opening, the header, and the flashing before we order anything. Most Sunrise homes we see need a complete window swap rather than glass-only work, because the frames are too far gone to reuse. For a full breakdown of options and what to expect, see our Window Replacement in Sunrise page.
Window Installation in Sunrise
New window installation in Sunrise covers additions, sunrooms, and wall openings where no window existed before. These jobs go through the same permitting process as replacements, and the HVHZ rules apply just the same. We frame the opening, flash it for wind-driven rain, and install the unit so it holds its product approval. Proper flashing matters more in Sunrise than most places because storms here push water sideways, not just down. For specifications and the process, visit Window Installation in Sunrise.
Door Installation in Sunrise
Door installation in Sunrise typically means replacing sliding glass doors and front entry doors with impact-rated units that carry Miami-Dade or Florida Building Code approvals. Sliding doors from the 1970s and 80s are the most common replacement we do here, often because the frames have bowed and the rollers have given out. We install Therma-Tru entry doors and impact-rated sliders, all permitted and inspected. For specifics, see Door Installation in Sunrise.
