Fast, Reliable Sliding & Patio Doors Across Edgewood
Replacing a sliding patio door in Edgewood usually runs between $2,200 and $6,400 installed, depending on the opening size, impact-rating requirements, and what we find once the old frame comes out. If your home sits under the MCO flight path, expect a quote that includes acoustic upgrades, because an STC 35 or higher rating is what this city asks for. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll send a technician who has opened walls in Edgewood ranch homes and knows what the 1959 CBS framing looks like behind the stucco.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Edgewood’s Preferred Sliding & Patio Doors Company
We’ve replaced sliding doors in Edgewood long enough to know that the job rarely stops at the door. The concrete block ranch off Hansel Avenue, the jalousie-windowed original on Willow Street, the newer addition near Lake Conway that never got flashed right: they all tell the same story once the old aluminum track is pulled. The rough opening hides what the homeowner couldn’t see. That’s why we work the way we do: measure twice, open once, and never surprise you with a change you didn’t approve in writing first.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 with a rule that still runs the crew: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. For many years in this trade, we’ve stood behind the work, the warranty, and the promise, in writing. Our Sliding & Patio Doors technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They register both manufacturer warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s the Keystone Standard. It’s not a phrase on a brochure. It’s a stack of paper with your name on it.
Our Sliding & Patio Doors Services in Edgewood
Patio Sliding Doors
The most common replacement we do in Edgewood is a two-panel vinyl or aluminum slider in a single-story CBS ranch. Most of these homes were built between 1950 and 1975, and the original doors were aluminum with single-pane glass. After sixty years of Central Florida humidity, the tracks corrode, the rollers seize, and the sash binds precisely when you’re trying to get outside. We replace the entire unit, not just the glass, because the frame is usually the problem. A typical patio sliding door replacement in Edgewood runs $2,200 to $4,600 depending on width and whether you go impact-rated.

Panoramic Sliding Systems
For homeowners on the south end of Edgewood near Lake Conway, where the lot backs up to water and the view matters, we install multi-panel panoramic sliders that open eight, twelve, even sixteen feet. These are heavier systems, and they demand a stiffer header than what the 1960s builders put in. We engineer for the load before we order glass. On a recent project near Shoreview Drive, the owner wanted a ten-foot opening in a load-bearing exterior wall of a 1963 CBS ranch. We pulled permits, installed a properly sized LVL beam, and passed inspection without a single note from the county. That’s how it should go.

Heavy-Duty Sliding Doors
Some Edgewood homes need a door that can handle daily abuse: a garage-to-patio slider, a pool-access door, or an opening that gets used forty times a day when the grandkids visit. We install reinforced frames with stainless steel rollers and ball-bearing tracks that won’t grind to a stop in July. These are the same commercial-grade components we use on multi-family properties, scaled down for a residential opening. Count on $3,800 to $6,400 for a heavy-duty slider with impact glazing.

Pocket & Barn Doors
Older Edgewood floor plans are tight. The kitchens are small, the hallways narrow, and a swinging door eats floor space you don’t have. A pocket door slides into the wall and gives you back that square footage. But here’s the catch: cutting a pocket into a 1950s CBS wall means opening the wall, and opening the wall means the inspector wants to see what’s behind it. We do this carefully, with a licensed subcontractor handling any framing changes and the permit pulled before the first swing of the hammer. Barn doors are simpler; they mount on the surface and don’t require structural work. Both are good options depending on your layout and your appetite for drywall dust.

Trusted Brands We Service in Edgewood
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Edgewood homes we lean on Andersen, Pella, and Marvin because they build doors that hold an STC rating and a Florida Product Approval at the same time. Not every door that’s impact-rated is also quiet, and not every quiet door meets wind code. We quote the options side by side on paper so you can see what you’re buying. If a roller or a lock fails on an Andersen slider we installed, we fix it, and the manufacturer’s parts warranty is already registered. No hunting for a serial number three years later.
Common Sliding & Patio Doors Problems We See in Edgewood Homes
- Corroded aluminum tracks from humidity and salt air. Edgewood sits inland but the air still carries moisture from the coast, and sixty years of it eats aluminum. The sash binds, then derails, usually when you’re carrying a tray of food outside. Replacement, not repair, is the only honest fix for a 1960s track.
- Fogged glass from failed seals. If there’s condensation between the panes, the argon gas has leaked out. In Central Florida, a failed seal means the glass is doing nothing for heat gain. A seal-replacement is a short-term patch; a new IGU with a quality spacer is the permanent fix.
- Sagging headers above original door openings. The 1950s builders didn’t plan for the weight of impact-rated glass. When we pull the old aluminum door and see the header has sagged, the permit requires us to address it. We’ll write that allowance into the contract before we start, so the change order isn’t a surprise.
- Wind-blown water intrusion during summer thunderstorms. Poor perimeter flashing from the original installation lets driving rain soak the jamb and the subfloor. By the time anyone notices, the lumber is already punky. We re-flash every opening to current code, with pan flashing at the sill and flashing tape up the jambs.

FAQs - Sliding & Patio Doors in Edgewood
Your original door was installed before MCO became the busy airport it is now. The FAA’s noise contour maps put parts of Edgewood inside the 65 DNL zone, and homeowners who lived through the airport noise insulation assistance programs learned what a properly rated door can do. We quote STC 35 to 42 packages as standard for Edgewood homes under the flight path. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll bring the STC data sheets with us.
The permit can trigger up to four upgrades: impact-rated glazing to meet Florida Product Approval, a properly sized header if the original is undersized, re-flashing to current waterproofing code, and, in some cases, upgrading the surrounding wall anchors. We write allowances for all four into the contract before we pull the permit. You won’t get a call asking for more money mid-job.
Because in Central Florida, a failed seal means the glass has lost its gas fill and is doing almost nothing to block heat gain. The humidity keeps working on it year-round, not seasonally. That fog is the argon leaving the building. The fix is a new IGU with a proper spacer, not a drill-and-dry hack. Call (813) 320-9346 for a straight answer on your door.
Almost never. The original aluminum frame wasn’t engineered for the weight or the wind-load of impact-rated glass, and the track is usually too far gone to handle new panels. Replacing the entire unit is the only way to get a Florida Product Approval that a building inspector will sign off on. We’ll show you why with the old frame off and the code book open.
We stop, photograph everything, and bring you a written change order with the exact cost of the fix before we make another cut. No one proceeds without your written approval. That’s the 90-Day Done Right Promise in action. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll put the whole process in writing up front.
