Existing door is beyond economical repair
Frame is bent, glass is cracked, rollers and track are both shot. When the repair quote crosses $700-$900 on a tired door, a new install starts to make sense.

Quick Answer
What does custom sliding door installation include?
Custom sliding door installation with ViniCon means an on-site measurement consultation, brand and spec selection (PGT, CGI, ES Windows, Eastern, Cardinal - plus pocket, French, bi-fold, and barn variants), formal quote, order placement, demo of the old door, and full install of the new system. Costs typically run $1,200 to $5,500 per door depending on door type, opening size, and impact rating. Every job is supervised personally by Vinko. Call (786) 979-1199 for a same-day on-site measurement.
When to Install New
When a new install beats a repair
Six situations where custom installation is the smarter move - not another patch on a tired door.
The frame is rotted
Wood frame swelling, corrosion at the sill, or water damage in the wall behind the slider. New rollers and glass don't fix a frame that's failing - the whole opening needs to be reset with a new system.
You're remodeling the opening
Moving from a standard slider to a pocket door, French doors, or bi-folds. Different opening type, different hardware, different wall prep - this is install territory, not repair.
Upgrading single-pane to impact-rated
Florida insurance discounts and code compliance both favor impact glass. If your slider is original single-pane, swapping to a hurricane-rated unit is an install job - not a glass swap.
Expanding the opening
Going from a 6 ft slider to an 8 ft or 10 ft opening means structural changes to the header and side framing. Always a permitted install with a full new door system.
Brand-new construction
New build, addition, ADU, or pool house that needs sliders from scratch. ViniCon coordinates with your GC and installs from rough opening through final adjustment.
What's Included
Every install ships with these eight steps
From the first measurement to the written warranty - one owner, one crew, one accountable phone number.
-
On-site measurement consultation
Vinko measures the opening himself, photographs the existing frame, checks the wall behind it, and discusses what's actually possible for your space.
-
Brand & spec selection
We recommend the right brand for your exposure and budget - PGT, CGI, ES Windows, Eastern, Cardinal - then you choose. No house brand, no kickbacks.
-
Formal quote with itemized parts
You see the door cost, hardware cost, labor, demo, disposal, and any structural prep separately. No "lump sum" mystery numbers.
-
Demo of the old door + safe disposal
Old door, frame, and glass pulled cleanly, hauled away, and dropped at a proper disposal facility. Floors and surrounding finishes protected.
-
Frame prep & opening squaring
Rough opening cleaned, leveled, and squared. Sill prepared and sealed. Header inspected and reinforced if the new door is heavier or wider than the old one.
-
New door delivery and install
Door delivered, set into the prepared opening, leveled, anchored, sealed, and trimmed. Hardware adjusted until it glides with one finger.
-
Hurricane code compliance verification
For impact-rated installs we verify NOA, anchor schedule, and meet the local Broward or Miami-Dade product approval. Permit and inspection coordinated where required.
-
Written workmanship warranty
Paper warranty on the install labor plus the manufacturer's warranty on the door itself. Documented with photos if requested.

- 2
On-site measurement & quote
Measure the opening, walk through brand options for your exposure and budget, and leave you with a firm written itemized quote.
- 3

Why install costs vary so much
Material brand, opening size, impact rating, and structural prep all move the number. A standard 6 ft residential swap-out in a clean opening is at the bottom of the range. A hurricane-rated 10 ft system in an older Plantation or Davie home with rotted framing or out-of-square walls climbs toward the top.
What's the same on every install: Vinko personally supervises the job so the door is set right the first time - properly anchored, sealed, and code-compliant. No "we'll come back to fix that" callbacks.

FAQ
Custom installation, straight answers
The questions Hallandale and Plantation homeowners ask before they commit to a new door. If yours isn't here, ask Vinko on the phone.
Custom sliding door installation in Hallandale typically runs $1,200 to $1,950 for a standard 6-8 ft residential slider, $1,950 to $2,950 for a triple-track or 8-10 ft door, and $2,850 to $5,500 per door for a hurricane-rated impact slider. Pocket doors, French doors, bi-folds, and barn doors fall in between. ViniCon gives a firm written quote after measuring on-site - no hidden charges and no surprise add-ons mid-install.
On-site measurement takes about 30 to 45 minutes. After you approve the quote, the new door is ordered to spec - delivery is usually 5 to 14 business days depending on brand and impact rating. Install day is typically a single visit, 4 to 8 hours per opening, including demo of the old door, frame prep, install, and clean-up. Hurricane-rated systems can take longer if structural prep is needed.
ViniCon installs PGT, CGI, ES Windows, Eastern, and Cardinal as our primary impact and hurricane-rated brands. We also install standard residential sliders, pocket door systems, French doors, bi-folds, and barn doors from major manufacturers. We recommend the right brand for your opening, climate exposure, and budget - then you choose. No house brand, no kickbacks.
In most cases yes, but it depends on the wall behind the existing opening. A pocket door needs a hollow wall cavity for the door to slide into. If that wall is structural or holds plumbing or electrical, we'll see it during the on-site measurement and quote either a relocation, a French door, or a bi-fold as a cleaner option. Vinko walks you through what's actually possible before you commit.
Yes. Hurricane-rated impact slider installations in Broward and Miami-Dade require a permit and an inspection - that's the law, and skipping it voids your insurance discount. ViniCon handles the permit paperwork and schedules the inspection as part of the quoted price. Standard non-impact swap-outs in the same opening usually don't require a permit, but we always confirm with the city first.
Yes - demo and disposal of the old door, frame, and glass is included in every install quote. We protect your floors and surrounding finishes, pull the old unit cleanly, haul it away, and leave the worksite swept. You don't end up with a slider leaning against the side of the house waiting for bulk pickup.
Yes. Every repair is backed by a parts-and-labor warranty, and we use commercial-grade components built for South Florida's salt air and heat. If something we serviced fails, we make it right.
No. We come out, diagnose the problem, and give you a firm written quote on-site at no charge. You only pay once you approve the work, with no surprise fees.
Yes. A sliding door that won't lock or close is a security and storm risk, so we keep room for same-day and emergency calls. Call (786) 979-1199 and we'll get you the soonest window we have.
