AfterEntry & Swing Doors in Wellington, FL
Replacing an entry or swing door in Wellington typically costs between $1,800 and $5,500 for a full unit installation, while minor repairs like threshold adjustments or hinge realignments usually range from $250 to $600 depending on the complexity of the hardware. At TruePane Windows & Doors, we handle the entire Door Installation services process from measurement to warranty registration, ensuring that every door we install is plumb, level, and secure against the specific humidity challenges we face here in Palm Beach County.
When you call us at (561) 349-4826, you are not reaching a call center or a scheduling bot. You are speaking with a local team that understands the difference between a door that is merely hung and a door that is installed to last. We have been serving the Wellington community since 2008, and we operate on a simple principle established by our founder, Dale Kessler: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Whether you need a front entry door that stands up to the Florida sun or a swing door for a patio, we provide the expertise to get it right on the first visit.
Proper door installation is more than just securing a slab into a frame. It involves managing the structural integrity of your home, ensuring the weather-stripping seals correctly, and confirming that the hardware operates without binding.

When You Need Entry & Swing Doors
In our experience, homeowners in Wellington often wait until a door is failing before they call for a professional. While it is natural to want to delay maintenance, waiting too long can lead to structural damage around the door frame or security vulnerabilities. We recommend looking for these specific signs that your door needs attention or replacement:
- Binding or Rubbing: If your door scrapes against the threshold or the frame, it is a sign that the door has shifted. In Wellington, our high humidity levels cause wood frames and doors to swell, which can quickly turn a minor friction issue into a complete structural failure of the jamb.
- Drafts and Light Leaks: If you can see daylight around the edges of your door, or if you feel a draft when the air conditioning is running, you are paying for wasted energy. We regularly address these gaps by installing high-quality weather-stripping or by replacing units that have warped beyond repair.
- Hardware Failure: A sticky lock, a sagging hinge, or a handle that feels loose is often a sign of mechanical fatigue. We see this frequently in homes where builders used lower-grade hardware that cannot handle the daily use of a primary entry door.
- Seal Failure: If you have a glass insert in your door and you notice fog or moisture trapped between the panes, the seal has failed. This is a common issue in our local climate, and it often requires replacing the glass insert or the entire door unit to restore insulation.
- Security Concerns: If your current door feels flimsy or the frame shows signs of rot, it is not just an inconvenience, it is a security risk. We prioritize safety by installing doors that are properly anchored to the structural framing of your home, not just the trim.
- Aesthetic Degradation: Sun exposure is harsh on exterior doors in Florida. If your door finish is peeling, cracking, or fading, it is more than a cosmetic issue, as the protective layer is no longer shielding the door material from the elements.
Our Entry & Swing Doors Process
We do not believe in rushing through an installation. A door is a moving part of your home, and it requires precision to function correctly over the long term. Our process is designed to ensure that you do not have to call us back for adjustments. When you work with TruePane Windows & Doors, this is the standard we follow for every job:
- Professional Assessment: We arrive at your home to evaluate your existing door. We measure the opening twice, check for structural rot in the surrounding studs, and discuss your goals. We bring samples and manufacturer catalogs from companies like Andersen, Pella, and Marvin so you can see exactly what you are purchasing before we begin.
- Upfront Pricing: We provide a written estimate that details the cost of the door, the hardware, and the labor. There are no surprise line items on the bill. We believe in a square deal, and we stand by the price we quote.
- Site Preparation: We protect your flooring and interior surfaces while we work. We remove the old door and inspect the rough opening. If we find water damage or rot in the sub-floor or studs, we address it then and there, rather than covering it up.
- Precision Installation: We set the new door, ensuring it is perfectly plumb and level. We shim the frame correctly to prevent sagging and ensure the door swings freely without catching. We use high-quality flashing materials to create a moisture-tight barrier, which is essential in our local climate.
- The Keystone Standard: Before our truck leaves your driveway, we register both manufacturer warranty layers for you. You receive the documentation in writing. This is part of our commitment to ensuring you have a permanent record of your investment.
- Quality Check: We walk through the operation of the door with you. We make sure the locks engage smoothly, the weather-stripping seals tightly, and the door stays in place when opened. If it is not right, we make it right, no arguing.

FAQs - Entry & Swing Doors
Is it cheaper to repair or replace my entry door?
It depends on the nature of the damage. If your door is binding due to loose hinges or minor frame settling, a repair is often the most cost-effective solution. However, if the door has significant rot, seal failure, or structural damage to the jamb, a replacement is almost always the better long-term investment. We provide honest assessments and will never push for a replacement if a repair will genuinely solve the problem. Call (561) 349-4826 for an honest evaluation of your door.
Can you match the style of my existing doors?
Yes, we are authorized installers for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including. We have access to a wide variety of styles, finishes, and hardware options, including Pivot Doors and other designs, allowing us to find a match that complements the architecture of your home. During our site visit, we will bring samples and catalogs to ensure we find a solution that fits your aesthetic preferences.
Do you handle HOA approval requirements for Wellington homes?
While we cannot submit the paperwork on your behalf, we are very familiar with the architectural standards and requirements in many Wellington communities. We provide the technical specifications, product brochures, and detailed quotes you need to submit to your HOA for approval. We ensure that our proposed solutions meet the necessary criteria for your neighborhood.
