Door Replacement in Palm Beach, FL
Replacing your doors with impact-rated systems does more than keep the storm out — it can trim your insurance bill. Most Palm Beach homeowners see $250 to $500 a year in wind-mitigation savings, and oceanfront homes can save up to $800 a year.
Ballistic Window & Door installs ES Windows impact entry, patio, sliding glass, and French doors across the island — and we guide the ARCOM submittal so the Town of Palm Beach signs off without the headache.
Door Replacement on the Island
Built for Palm Beach's Coast — and Its Standards
Palm Beach is a barrier island of roughly 9,200 residents sitting right in the path of whatever the Atlantic sends ashore. Folks who rode out Hurricane Wilma in 2005 remember the debris and the days without power, and Hurricane Nicole in 2022 was a fresh reminder that this stretch of coast doesn't get a pass. When the wind comes up Ocean Boulevard, your doors are one of the first things it tests.
That coastal exposure is exactly why door replacement matters here more than almost anywhere in Palm Beach County. An old hinged entry or a tired patio slider is a weak point — once a door fails in a storm, the pressure inside the house spikes and the damage compounds fast. Impact-rated doors close that gap, and they do it without a single shutter to hang.
We've worked enough island homes to know that Palm Beach plays by its own rules. The town holds the strictest architectural review in Florida, the building department is exacting, and the homes — from the Estate Section to El Brillo Way — deserve doors that look the part. That's the standard Ballistic Window & Door installs to.
Why Replace Your Doors
What Impact Doors Do for a Palm Beach Home
One upgrade, several payoffs — storm protection, lower premiums, quieter rooms, and a finish that fits the island.
Storm-Tested Protection
Laminated impact glass and reinforced frames stay sealed against wind-borne debris — no shutters to hang before the next Wilma or Nicole rolls up the coast.
Insurance Savings
Impact-rated doors qualify your home for wind-mitigation credits — typically $250–$500 a year in Palm Beach, and up to $800 on the oceanfront.
Entry, French & Sliding Doors
From a grand Estate Section front entry to a North End patio slider, we replace entry doors, French doors, patio doors, and sliding glass with impact systems sized to the opening.
Quieter, Cooler Rooms
Laminated glass dampens Ocean Boulevard traffic and ocean wind, while a tight modern seal keeps the conditioned air in and the Florida heat out.
UV & Fade Defense
Impact glass blocks the bulk of UV rays, protecting hardwood floors, art, and furnishings in sun-soaked Worth Avenue and oceanfront homes.
Added Curb Appeal & Value
New impact doors elevate the look of an island home and add value buyers notice — a finished detail that fits Palm Beach's exacting standards.
Local Know-How
Permits, ARCOM & the Neighborhoods We Serve
Door replacement in Palm Beach runs through the Town of Palm Beach Building Department, and the town holds the strictest architectural review in Florida. For most exterior door changes, you'll need ARCOM design-board approval before a permit is issued. We've been through it, and we prepare and guide the submittal so your project doesn't stall.
Have an HOA or estate review on top of the town requirements? We'll work within those guidelines too, matching door styles and finishes to what the board expects.
We replace doors across the whole island — the Estate Section, the North End, the South End, Midtown, the homes around Worth Avenue, and El Brillo Way.

Frequently Asked Questions about Door Replacement in Palm Beach
Do I need ARCOM or town approval to replace my doors in Palm Beach?
In most cases, yes. The Town of Palm Beach has the strictest architectural review in Florida, and ARCOM (the Architectural Commission) design-board approval is required for most exterior window and door changes — even when the new door matches the old one closely. We have walked Estate Section and Worth Avenue homeowners through this before, so we prepare and guide the submittal package, then pull the permit through the Town of Palm Beach Building Department so your project stays on the right side of the rules.
How much can impact doors save me on my insurance in Palm Beach?
Most Palm Beach homeowners see roughly $250 to $500 a year in wind-mitigation premium savings after we replace their doors and openings with impact-rated products, and oceanfront homes along the South End and Estate Section can see up to $800 a year because of their coastal wind exposure. After installation you receive documentation for a wind-mitigation inspection so your insurer can apply the credits you are entitled to.
What kinds of doors do you replace in Palm Beach homes?
We replace entry doors, French doors, sliding glass doors, and patio doors with impact-rated systems. From the grand front entries of the Estate Section to the patio sliders that open onto a North End pool deck, we size and install each door to handle Palm Beach's coastal wind loads while keeping the look the home deserves.
Are impact doors really stronger than my old doors with shutters?
Yes. Impact doors use laminated glass and reinforced frames that stay intact even when struck by wind-borne debris, so there is nothing to put up before a storm and nothing to take down after. After living through Hurricane Wilma in 2005 and Hurricane Nicole in 2022, a lot of Palm Beach residents are done wrestling with panels and bolts at the last minute.
Who actually installs the doors — you or a subcontractor?
Our own trained crews handle every Palm Beach installation. We do not hand your home off to day-labor subs. Because Ballistic was founded by a former Florida insurance adjuster who saw too many failures from rushed, improper installs, every door is set, anchored, and sealed to perform when it matters.
What neighborhoods in Palm Beach do you serve?
We serve the entire island — the Estate Section, the North End, the South End, Midtown, Worth Avenue, and El Brillo Way — along with the rest of northern Palm Beach County from Vero Beach down to Boynton Beach.
