When considering upgrading your home to hurricane impact windows and doors, a question we often receive is ‘What is the process for Impact window and door replacement?” As with any home improvement investment, it is important to make sure every detail is correct to ensure a seamless install and flawless finish. To accomplish this, our team uses a 5-Star Project Management System from start to finish.
The first step in the process is our free in-home consultation. Our consultations go beyond just simply measuring the openings and matching exactly what you have. We will take the time to explain to you what alternatives may be available to you that you may have not considered before. Some examples include recessing sliding glass doors to remove the extra threshold height, changing a single hung window to horizontal roller to make it easier to operate over large furniture or counters, and changing window configurations to maximize the glass size to improve your view.
Window & Door Replacement Company partners with more than a dozen of the industry’s most innovative hurricane window and door manufacturers. To provide custom total home solutions, WDRC will combine as many or as few different brands as you would like to create the ideal combination of impact products for your home’s style and your project goals. The best way to choose your package and options is to visit our design showroom. We have full sizes of all the most popular products from each manufacturer so you can compare and contract everything from colors to operability.
Once you have created the ideal window and door package for your home, we begin our meticulous order process to make sure your custom hurricane impact products are made exactly how you want and that they will fit into your home perfectly. We begin that process with a detailed final measure of every opening, down to the 1/16th of an inch. A perfect fit means a quicker installation and less finish work.
While we strive to provide unique options for South Florida homeowners, we always ensure that the products chosen will meet the building code, any requirements of your local municipality (like historic districts), and your HOA/POA. Before your products are custom ordered, we will wait to receive confirmation that your package will be approved by these entities. If we did not wait for that confirmation, this could lead to costly change orders and/or re-orders for you that we want to avoid.
Our warehouse team is up next, checking all your products as they come in to make sure nothing is missing and is exactly what you ordered. They also coordinate with each manufacturer to make sure your entire package has arrived before install starts.
The installation is the most crucial part of an impact window and door project. Every aspect of our installation is overseen by our project managers, ensuring everything from in-home protection to layers of waterproofing are up to our high standards.
The final step of the process is for our walk-through and final inspections. The walk-through is for you as the client and our Project Manager to take a final look at all the newly installed products to ensure your satisfaction as well as the operability. The final inspection is conducted by the municipality your permit came from, whether that is the county or your local city/village. Passing the inspection will close out the permit for the project, meaning the install of your new windows and doors meet all building codes and perform as they should.

Our 5-Star Project Management system, coupled with our extensive product selection, is what has earned us an impeccable reputation.
