1. Choose your installer
The unit is half the job - the install is the other half. Our own background-checked crews measure, set, seal and insulate every opening, and they know the lines we quote inside and out because they install them every week.
2. Select the right products
Compare styles, materials and glass packages side by side until the fit is right for your rooms, your budget and your goals. The product-line comparison below is the place to start.
3. Prepare your home for install
Before install day we walk you through a short checklist - furniture pulled back, treatments down, a clear path to each opening - so install day is watch-it-happen, not scramble.

Windows & Doors in Sunrise, FL
Window installation in Sunrise, FL typically runs $650-$1,400 per opening for standard vinyl replacement and $1,200-$2,800 for impact-rated units, with most single-family homes in the city’s 1960s-70s planned communities needing full-opening replacement rather than insert-style retrofits. Every job we measure in Sunrise starts with a written price tied to the Haven Standard, and the quote you receive is the same document that governs the installation. Call (754) 666-7478 to schedule your free measured survey.
Why Sunrise Homes Are Different
Sunrise sits entirely within Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the same rigorous designation as Miami-Dade, which means every replacement window and door must carry a Florida Product Approval explicitly listing HVHZ compliance. The city’s master-planned communities from the late 1960s through mid-1980s, including Welleby, Sawgrass Estates, and Sunrise Golf Village, were built with concrete-block-and-stucco construction and original aluminum-frame single-pane sliders that now fail on three fronts: impact resistance, thermal performance, and salt-air corrosion.
We’ve measured homes along Nob Hill Road and Sunset Strip where the original aluminum frames have oxidized through, and where hollow-core entry doors remain in place forty years past their useful life. Broward’s Building Division inspectors routinely reject installations when the Product Approval number doesn’t explicitly list HVHZ, a mistake we’ve seen from crews accustomed to Palm Beach County’s less stringent ASTM-based standards. For Sunrise homeowners, this means the product specification, permit pull, and final inspection are inseparable parts of the same job.
Before
AfterOur Main Sunrise Services
Most calls we field from Sunrise originate from two concerns: failing original windows that no longer close or lock properly, and insurance non-renewal notices requiring documented impact-rated openings. These three dedicated Sunrise pages cover the work we perform most often.
Window Replacement in Sunrise
We replace original aluminum single-pane sliders throughout Sunrise’s planned communities with impact-rated or energy-efficient vinyl or aluminum units, measured to the exact rough opening dimensions of CBS construction from the 1970s. Welleby and Sawgrass Estates homes often present non-standard jamb depths that require field-verified measurements rather than catalog sizes. Every replacement includes a written price before work starts and a documented photo record at completion. Window Replacement in Sunrise
Impact Windows & Doors in Sunrise
Impact-rated openings are non-negotiable in Sunrise’s HVHZ classification, and Florida carriers are increasingly dropping policies on homes without full impact protection. We specify PGT, CGI, and CWS product lines by performance tier and price range, with Florida Product Approval numbers that explicitly list HVHZ compliance for permit approval. The measured survey identifies every opening’s missile-rating requirement and pressure-cycle loading. Impact Windows & Doors in Sunrise
Sliding & Patio Doors in Sunrise
Original patio door systems in Sunrise’s condo clusters along University Drive and Pine Island Road often suffer from corroded rollers, failed weatherstripping, and single-pane glass that violates current energy code. We measure the rough opening, specify two-panel or three-panel systems from ES Windows or ECO Window Systems, and coordinate with association boards where uniform exterior appearance is required.

Window Installation in Sunrise
Window installation in Sunrise demands HVHZ-compliant product selection, field-verified rough opening measurements in 1970s CBS construction, and permit documentation that satisfies Broward County’s Building Division inspectors who routinely reject non-HVHZ Florida Product Approvals. We perform Window Installation across Sunrise’s planned communities, from Welleby’s single-family homes to the townhome clusters along Pine Island Road, with every job governed by the Haven Standard’s requirement that the measured survey and written price are the same document.
Single & Double Hung Windows
Signs you need it
Sashes that won’t stay open, visible daylight through closed meeting rails, or single-pane glass with condensation between original aluminum frames are the typical conditions we find in Sunrise’s 1970s-era homes.
What it costs in Sunrise
Vinyl double-hung replacement in Sunrise runs $650-$1,200 per opening for non-impact and $1,400-$2,600 for HVHZ-rated impact units with laminated glass.
How we do it
We measure the rough opening depth in the CBS wall, specify the frame extrusion to match, install with HVHZ-approved anchoring patterns, and seal with backer rod and sealant rated for the joint movement in concrete-block construction.
Horizontal Roller Windows
Signs you need it
Roller mechanisms that grind or stick, frames corroded at the sill track, or single-pane glass that transmits heat and noise are standard findings in original Sunrise sliders.
What it costs in Sunrise
Horizontal roller replacement ranges $700-$1,350 per opening for standard vinyl and $1,500-$2,800 for impact-rated units with HVHZ Florida Product Approval.
How we do it
We remove the sash, inspect the sill track for corrosion damage, install the new frame with weep holes clear to the exterior, and verify operation and lock engagement before documenting with photos.
What Window Installation Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Vinyl double-hung (non-impact) | $650 - $1,200 |
| Vinyl double-hung (impact-rated) | $1,400 - $2,600 |
| Horizontal roller (impact-rated) | $1,500 - $2,800 |
How long does window installation take in Sunrise?
Most single-family homes in Sunrise require one to two days for full-opening replacement of eight to twelve windows, with permit inspection scheduled after completion. Call (754) 666-7478 for a measured survey and written timeline.
Will my windows pass Broward County inspection?
Yes, if the Florida Product Approval explicitly lists HVHZ compliance; we verify this on every product specification before ordering, and we pull the permit ourselves. Call (754) 666-7478 to review your current windows.
Door Installation in Sunrise
Door installation in Sunrise means replacing hollow-core entry doors and non-impact patio systems in 1970s planned communities with HVHZ-compliant units that satisfy both building inspectors and insurance underwriters now non-renewing policies on unprotected openings. We perform Door Installation with measured surveys that document jamb depth, hinge location, and strike placement in CBS construction, producing a written price that cannot change once work begins.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
Signs you need it
Original hollow-core entry doors that flex under hand pressure, lack deadbolt strike reinforcement, or show daylight at the weatherstripping are common in Sunrise’s 1970s inventory and fail HVHZ requirements.
What it costs in Sunrise
Impact-rated fiberglass or steel entry door systems in Sunrise range $1,800-$3,500 installed, including HVHZ-compliant frame, hardware, and permit.
How we do it
We measure the rough opening in the CBS wall, specify a Therma-Tru or comparable impact-rated slab and frame with proper anchoring, and install with continuous sill pan flashing before scheduling Broward inspection.
French & Double Doors
Signs you need it
Double-door systems with sagging meeting stiles, failed multi-point locks, or single-pane glass in original aluminum frames are standard findings in Sunrise homes and patio conversions.
What it costs in Sunrise
French door replacement with impact-rated units runs $2,400-$4,800 per opening in Sunrise, depending on width, height, and hardware specification.
How we do it
We verify the header capacity for the new door weight, install with adjustable hinges and multi-point locking, and confirm HVHZ Product Approval matches the label before final documentation.
What Door Installation Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Impact-rated entry door (fiberglass/steel) | $1,800 - $3,500 |
| French/double door (impact-rated) | $2,400 - $4,800 |
| Patio door replacement (impact-rated) | $1,800 - $3,200 |
Do I need a permit to replace my front door in Sunrise?
Yes, Broward County requires a permit for any entry door replacement in the HVHZ, and we pull it as part of our standard scope. Call (754) 666-7478 for a measured survey and permit included in your written price.
Can you match my door to the HOA requirements in Sunrise?
We work with association boards in Sunrise’s planned communities to specify color, style, and hardware that meets covenants before ordering, with documentation submitted for approval. Call (754) 666-7478 to review your HOA documents.
Energy-Efficient Windows in Sunrise
Energy-efficient window replacement in Sunrise addresses the specific failure mode of 1970s aluminum single-pane units: solar heat gain that forces HVAC systems to cycle continuously, and air infiltration through failed weatherstripping that raises cooling costs year-round in Broward’s climate. We perform Energy-Efficient Windows with product lines from ES Windows and ECO Window Systems, specified by U-factor and SHGC performance rather than by margin, and every specification is backed by a written price before work starts.
Low-E & Argon Gas Glass
Signs you need it
Rooms with south or west exposure that stay hot despite thermostat settings, or glass that radiates heat to the touch, indicate failed or absent low-E coating in original Sunrise windows.
What it costs in Sunrise
Low-E with argon gas fill adds $80-$150 per opening to standard vinyl replacement in Sunrise, or comes standard in most energy-efficient packages we specify.
How we do it
We measure each opening’s solar orientation, specify the appropriate low-E coating tier for the exposure, and verify argon fill with manufacturer certification at delivery.
ENERGY STAR Replacement Windows
Signs you need it
Original windows with no NFRC label, or labels showing U-factor above 0.40 and SHGC above 0.25, fall outside current ENERGY STAR criteria for South Florida and cost more to cool than they save.
What it costs in Sunrise
ENERGY STAR-qualified vinyl replacement windows in Sunrise range $750-$1,450 per opening, with performance documentation for utility rebate programs where available.
How we do it
We verify the NFRC rating on every specified unit, install with complete air-sealing at the frame perimeter, and provide the customer with the performance documentation for their records.
What Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Low-E/argon upgrade (add to base) | $80 - $150 |
| ENERGY STAR vinyl replacement | $750 - $1,450 |
| High-performance triple-low-E package | $1,100 - $1,800 |
Will energy-efficient windows lower my FPL bill in Sunrise?
Yes, reducing solar heat gain and air infiltration in 1970s aluminum-framed homes typically cuts cooling load by 15-25%, with payback periods we calculate from your current usage. Call (754) 666-7478 for a measured survey and projected savings.
Do energy-efficient windows also need to be impact-rated in Sunrise?
They can be both; we specify laminated low-E impact glass that satisfies HVHZ requirements while delivering ENERGY STAR performance, with one Product Approval covering both criteria. Call (754) 666-7478 to review the specification.
Impact Garage Doors in Sunrise
Impact garage door installation in Sunrise is increasingly driven by insurance non-renewal notices requiring full envelope protection, including the largest unprotected opening in most homes; original non-rated sectional doors in 1970s construction fail both HVHZ and current underwriting standards. We perform Impact Garage Doors with wind-load-rated systems that include the door, track, hardware, and automatic opener interlock, with every component listed on the same Florida Product Approval.
Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors
Signs you need it
Insurance non-renewal citing garage door vulnerability, or original doors with no wind-load sticker, no reinforced struts, and no impact-rated glazing sections, are standard in Sunrise’s 1970s housing stock.
What it costs in Sunrise
Hurricane-rated garage door systems in Sunrise range $1,800-$3,800 for single-car and $2,400-$4,800 for double-car openings, including track, hardware, and permit.
How we do it
We measure the opening and headroom, specify the wind-load rating for Sunrise’s exposure category, install with reinforced track and proper spring balance, and verify automatic opener disconnection before inspection.
Wind-Load Code Compliance
Signs you need it
Permit application for window or door replacement that triggers a whole-envelope review, or a failed inspection citing garage door as the remaining unprotected opening, requires documented wind-load compliance.
What it costs in Sunrise
Wind-load upgrade of an existing garage door structure in Sunrise runs $900-$1,800 if the door itself is salvageable, or $2,200-$4,500 for full replacement with rated system.
How we do it
We calculate the net pressure on the door from Broward’s wind speed maps, specify the required design pressure rating, and install with the manufacturer’s prescribed anchoring pattern for the jamb type.
What Impact Garage Doors Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Hurricane-rated single-car door | $1,800 - $3,800 |
| Hurricane-rated double-car door | $2,400 - $4,800 |
| Wind-load structural upgrade | $900 - $1,800 |
Does my garage door need to be impact-rated if my windows already are?
Yes, Broward County’s HVHZ requirements and most insurance underwriters now treat the garage door as part of the envelope; partial protection no longer satisfies permit or policy renewal. Call (754) 666-7478 for a full-opening survey.
Will an impact garage door work with my existing opener?
Most openers require recalibration or replacement to handle the additional weight of impact-rated sections; we verify compatibility during measurement and include any opener modification in the written price. Call (754) 666-7478 to inspect your current system.
Custom & Geometric Windows in Sunrise
Custom and geometric window installation in Sunrise solves the specific problem of 1970s planned-community homes where original shaped openings, clerestory windows, or atrium features use single-pane glass in fixed aluminum frames that cannot be replicated with standard catalog sizes. We perform Custom & Geometric Windows with measured templates that become the fabrication drawings, and every custom unit carries HVHZ Florida Product Approval with the specific geometry noted.
Geometric & Shaped Windows
Signs you need it
Trapezoid, triangle, or octagon windows with failed seals, corroded frames, or single-pane glass that cannot be matched from stock sizes require custom fabrication to the original or improved geometry.
What it costs in Sunrise
Geometric window replacement in Sunrise ranges $1,200-$2,800 per opening depending on complexity, with laminated impact glass adding $400-$800 to the base fabrication.
How we do it
We create a measured template on site, submit it to the manufacturer for CAD verification, and inspect the finished unit against the template before installation with custom flashing.
Arched & Curved Windows
Signs you need it
Arched top windows with sagging frames, cracked curved glass, or failed thermal performance in entry foyers and living rooms are common in Sunrise’s more detailed 1970s elevations.
What it costs in Sunrise
Arched window replacement in Sunrise runs $1,500-$3,200 for vinyl or aluminum with standard glass, and $2,200-$4,500 with impact-rated laminated construction.
How we do it
We measure the radius or spring-line dimensions, verify the structural support for the new unit weight, and coordinate with the manufacturer for radius tolerance before installation and documentation.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Sunrise
| Item | Typical range in Sunrise |
|---|---|
| Geometric shaped window (standard) | $1,200 - $2,800 |
| Geometric with impact-rated glass | $1,600 - $3,600 |
| Arched window (impact-rated) | $2,200 - $4,500 |
How long does custom window fabrication take in Sunrise?
Custom geometric windows typically require four to six weeks from template approval to delivery, with expediting available for storm-damage repairs; we schedule installation immediately upon receipt. Call (754) 666-7478 to template your opening.
Can you match the original shape exactly?
We measure to within 1/16 inch and submit the template for your approval before fabrication; the finished unit is inspected against the template before leaving our facility. Call (754) 666-7478 for a site measurement.
