Our company, TruePane Windows & Doors, was founded in 2008 by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler. We operate on a simple, founding rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. This philosophy guides how we approach every Sliding & Patio Doors in Doral project. We do not believe in the “one-size-fits-all” approach that many larger, franchise-based contractors rely on. Instead, we treat your home with the same care we would apply to our own. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to measure every opening twice before a single order is placed. We are proud to be a home service provider that has been serving local communities since 2008, and we plan to be here for many more.
When you work with us, you are getting more than just a new door. You are getting The Keystone Standard. This means we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. We stand behind our work with a Done Right Promise. If something is not right, we make it right, with no arguing and no paperwork fights. We know that in Doral, a patio door is not just a way to get to the backyard; it is a critical component of your home’s security and thermal envelope.
When You Need Patio Doors
In Doral, our environment is hard on building materials. The intense sunlight and high humidity levels can accelerate the degradation of seals, tracks, and frames. We see many homeowners who wait too long to address minor issues, which then turn into larger, more expensive repairs. If you notice any of the following, it is time to have a professional take a look.
- The door binds or drags along the track: This is often a sign that the rollers have failed or that the house foundation has settled, causing the frame to go out of square. In Doral, soil conditions can shift, and we see this frequently in older properties.
- Condensation or fog between the glass panes: This indicates that the insulated glass unit (IGU) seal has failed. Once the seal is broken, the argon or krypton gas escapes, and your door loses its thermal efficiency.
- Water leaking during heavy rain: If you see water pooling on the interior sill during a storm, your drainage system is likely clogged or the weatherstripping has worn down, allowing water to bypass the threshold.
- Difficulty locking or latching: If your door does not lock securely, it is a significant security risk. We often find that the locking mechanism is misaligned due to frame warping caused by years of heat exposure.
- Visible daylight around the edges: If you can see light coming through the closed door, air is also passing through. This forces your air conditioning system to work harder, increasing your energy bills.
- Cracked or shattered glass: Whether from a stray golf ball or a storm-related impact, broken glass is a safety hazard. We specialize in replacing these units with modern, impact-rated glass that meets current codes.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please reach out to us at (386) 854-7948. A live person answers our phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We do not use voicemail trees or callback forms. When you call, we will listen to your concerns and determine if a repair can solve the issue or if a full replacement is the most cost-effective path forward.
Our Patio Doors Process
We do not treat installation as a transaction. It is a craft commitment. When we arrive at your Doral home, we follow a strict process to ensure the job is done right the first time. We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, and CGI, and we bring that expertise to every job.
- The Initial Assessment: We start by listening to your goals. Are you trying to reduce heat transfer, improve security, or just update the aesthetic? We walk through your home and inspect the existing opening. We check for signs of wood rot, water intrusion, and structural settling.
- Precision Measurement: We measure your opening twice. We account for the specific requirements of the manufacturer and the local building codes in Doral. This prevents surprises on installation day.
- The Square Deal Quote: We provide you with side-by-side quotes on paper for different manufacturer lines. We explain the differences in glass types, frame materials, and warranty coverage. There are no hidden fees, and we do not use high-pressure sales tactics. We want you to make an informed decision.
- Professional Installation: Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They arrive on time and prepared. We remove your old door and dispose of it properly. We install your new door using high-grade sealants and fasteners that are rated for our local climate.
- Quality Verification: Before we leave, we test the door repeatedly. We check the glide, the lock, and the seal. We verify that the door is plumb, level, and square. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- Warranty Registration: We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave. You receive the documentation immediately. This is part of our Keystone Standard.
We are a company that plans to be in town for another thirty years. We sponsor local events and support our community because we are part of it. When you choose TruePane Windows & Doors, you are choosing a partner who will be there if you ever need a follow-up visit or a tune-up years down the road.

FAQs - Patio Doors
Is it cheaper to repair or replace my patio door?
Whether you should repair or replace depends entirely on the condition of the frame and the glass. If your door is sticking because of worn-out rollers or a dirty track, a repair is often the most cost-effective solution. However, if the glass seal has failed, the frame is warped, or the door lacks proper impact rating for our area, a replacement is usually the better investment. We will always give you an honest recommendation based on the long-term value for your home. Call (386) 854-7948 for a free estimate and we can inspect your door to see which option makes the most sense.
How long does a typical patio door installation take?
Most standard patio door replacements are completed in a single visit. Our team arrives in the morning, removes the old unit, cleans the opening, installs the new door, and ensures everything is tested and sealed by the afternoon. We prioritize single-visit completion to minimize the disruption to your home life. If your project involves a custom opening or requires structural work, we will provide a clear timeline during the quoting process.
Do I need impact-rated doors in Doral?
Yes, given our location in South Florida, impact-rated doors are a critical component for home security and storm protection. These doors are designed to withstand high winds and debris impact, which is essential for protecting the integrity of your home during hurricane season. We specialize in installing impact-rated doors from trusted manufacturers like ECO Window Systems and Mr-Glass that meet all current building codes.
Can you fix a door that is hard to open or close?
Yes, we frequently handle repairs for doors that are difficult to operate. Often, this is caused by debris buildup in the track, worn-out rollers, or a frame that has shifted due to foundation settling. Because we have been in business for years, we have seen almost every type of door mechanism and know how to calibrate them for smooth operation. If you are struggling with a door that binds or drags, call (386) 854-7948, and we can assess whether a repair or a full tune-up will restore functionality.
Safety is our priority. Patio doors are heavy, and the glass is tempered or laminated for strength. Attempting to remove or adjust a heavy sliding door can lead to injury if you do not have the right equipment and experience. Please do not attempt to lift or disassemble these units yourself. Our team has the tools and the training to handle the weight and the glass safely. If you have a door that is dangerous or broken, call us at (386) 854-7948 and we will come out to handle it.
