    Balcony Sliders in West Palm Beach Condos

    Condo living along Flagler Drive and the waterfront means a lot of balcony glass, and a cracked balcony slider comes with a couple of steps a house doesn’t have.

    Florida’s condo law requires every association to adopt hurricane protection specifications for its buildings, and those specs can set the color and style of impact glass and code-compliant doors. If the whole door is being replaced, get the specs from the management office first, because the new door has to meet them. The upside: once a door conforms, the board can’t refuse to approve it (Section 718.113, Florida Statutes).
    The responsibility for the cost of glass is determined by the declaration of condominium rather than by whoever calls us. On the day of the installation, the building often requires that an insurance certificate be kept on file and the work scheduled for the time allowed. Simply provide us with the building and unit, and we will coordinate with the management office.

    Fix the Glass Panel or Replace the Door?

    The first thing we look at is whether the damage stops at the glass or reaches the frame. Either way, don’t sit on it. Cracked or broken glass can cut someone, gives intruders an easy way in, and lets your AC leak out, which you’ll notice on the next electric bill.

    New glass alone will do the job if:
    • There is no dent in the frame
    • There is only one broken panel
    • The door is already resistant to impacts or you plan on securing it with shutters during storms
    It is recommended to replace the whole door if:
    • The frame is bent or corroded
    • You want your opening to be secure without using shutters
    • The building is replacing all its sliders with matching new doors
    New glass in a sound frame gets the door back in working order, and it usually costs a fraction of a new door.

    Sliders Around West Palm Beach

    Down in SoSo, Prospect Park, and Bel Air, it’s typically a simple sliding door leading to the garden or swimming pool.
    South Flagler is characterized by huge multi-door openings that open to Lake Worth Lagoon.
    Out west, in places like the Villages of Palm Beach Lakes, they usually open onto a covered lanai.
    Different doors, same first visit: we measure the panel, check what glass is in it, and price the job.

    We work with commercial customers too: offices, shops, and restaurants in downtown West Palm Beach get their glass entry doors and storefront glass replaced on a schedule built around business hours.

    What Glass Goes Into the New Panel

    Glass What it does Best for
    Clear tempered Code-required safety glass; breaks into small cubes instead of shards Any slider that isn’t impact-rated
    Low-E A thin coating that cuts solar heat and, with it, energy costs Sliders facing south or west
    Tinted (gray or bronze) Cuts glare Matching the other panel, or doors facing the water
    Double-pane Better insulation, though seals can fail after years of heat and humidity Only panels built for a thicker sealed unit
    Impact laminated Holds together when struck; ordered to the door’s approval Impact-rated doors only
    A single-pane frame has a narrow pocket that won’t take a thicker sealed unit, so we check that before suggesting double-pane. For impact doors, our West Palm Beach glass repair page explains how the glass gets matched to the approval.
