Impact-rated sliding doors are engineering marvels — laminated glass bonded to interlayers that shrug off flying debris, in reinforced frames engineered for hurricane pressure. They're also heavy. A single impact panel can weigh half again as much as the door it replaced, and all of that weight rides on the same few rollers. When impact-door hardware wears, it wears hard, and a door this heavy dragging on a damaged track is beyond most DIY willpower.
We service impact sliders across the tri-county area: heavy-duty roller replacement rated for the panel weight, track restoration, multi-point lock service, and the seal and alignment work that keeps an impact door performing the way its certification assumes. One thing we won't do is blur the code line — an impact door's glazing and structural components are certified as a system, so we're straightforward about which repairs preserve that rating, and when a damaged panel needs a code-compliant replacement rather than a workaround.

- Damaged laminated glass — cracked, delaminating, or hazy at the edges
- Water intrusion around an impact door during storms
- Pre-hurricane-season checks: will every panel close, seal and lock as designed?
