Impact Doors in West Palm Beach, FL
Hurricane-rated impact doors installed by a licensed Florida contractor and built around the wind mitigation insurance savings West Palm Beach homeowners are entitled to. Free in-home inspection, full permitting, and complete insurance documentation.
Built by a Florida Insurance Adjuster
Ballistic was founded by a former Florida insurance adjuster who spent years walking storm-damaged Palm Beach County homes and seeing the same problem on every other claim: impact doors were either installed wrong or missing the documentation needed to unlock the homeowner's wind mitigation discount.
We started Ballistic to fix both. Every installation is code-compliant and inspector-ready. Every project closes with the OIR-B1-1802 wind mitigation form completed and ready to file. Our team includes a licensed Florida general contractor (CBC1266857), former window industry professionals, and the adjusting expertise that makes sure your insurer applies every credit you qualify for.
We are not a claims-assistance service and we are not adversarial with insurers. Our angle is simpler: install the right product, do it correctly, document it properly, and your premium drops permanently.
Why West Palm Beach Homeowners Need Impact Doors
West Palm Beach sits in one of the highest-risk hurricane zones on the U.S. mainland. Hurricane Frances (2004), Jeanne (2004), and Nicole (2022) are recent reminders that this region's exposure is not theoretical. Florida insurers price that risk into every premium, and rates have climbed steadily for homes without impact-rated impact doors.
The Florida Building Code requires that all new and replacement impact doors meet design pressure ratings for wind load. In high-velocity hurricane zones (HVHZ), Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA) approval is typically required. Our ES Windows products are certified to these standards — and Ballistic provides the wind-load engineering documentation directly to your West Palm Beach building inspector.
Northern Palm Beach County sits directly in the path of Atlantic hurricanes. Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, Wellington, Lake Worth, and Boynton Beach homeowners pay some of the highest wind insurance premiums in the United States — and insurance companies serving this market have responded to the area's storm exposure by dramatically increasing premiums, especially for homes without impact-rated windows and doors.
Insurance Savings + My Safe Florida Home Grant
Wind Mitigation Discount
Florida insurers offer mandatory wind mitigation credits when impact doors are impact-rated and the homeowner files the OIR-B1-1802 wind mitigation inspection form. West Palm Beach homeowners typically see homeowners insurance drop by:
We file your OIR-B1-1802 form as part of the project. The credit begins as soon as your insurer processes it — typically your next renewal.
My Safe Florida Home Grant
The state of Florida matches $2 for every $1 you spend on qualifying hurricane improvements, up to $10,000 per home. Most owner-occupied single-family homes in Palm Beach County valued under $700K are eligible.
We've helped West Palm Beach customers stack the MSFH grant with PACE financing and wind-mitigation insurance discounts to cut effective project cost dramatically. Bring your address and we'll check eligibility on the spot.
Check My Safe FL Home Eligibility →Our Impact Doors Lineup
Ballistic installs ES Windows impact doors — Florida Product Approval certified, Miami-Dade NOA where required, and tested to the highest design pressure ratings in the U.S. building code.
Code-compliant storm protection
Our impact doors are Florida Product Approval certified, including Miami-Dade NOA where required. They withstand large-missile impact and the cyclical pressure of hurricane-force wind without shutters or panels.
Insurance savings for full-home protection
Florida insurers offer larger wind mitigation discounts when ALL openings (windows + doors) are impact-rated. West Palm Beach homeowners often see savings rise by another 150+ per month when impact doors are added to an impact-window project. We document everything for the OIR-B1-1802 form.
Daily security upgrade
Impact doors with multi-point locking and laminated glass are vastly harder to force open than standard doors. The same construction that stops storm debris also stops a kick-in or pry attack.
Energy + noise + UV control
Laminated impact glass blocks 99% of UV rays and dramatically reduces outside noise — meaningful in West Palm Beach where Atlantic-side properties get road, surf, and equipment noise. AC bills typically drop alongside the upgrade.
Impact Doors Cost in West Palm Beach
Impact entry doors in West Palm Beach typically run $3,500 to $6,500 installed. Impact sliding glass doors run $5,000 to $12,000 depending on panel count and size. French doors fall between those ranges. Multi-panel sliders (OXXO, three or four panels) can exceed $15,000. We provide an exact written quote after a free in-home measurement.
What drives cost: window or door size, frame configuration, glass type (clear vs. tinted, low-E coatings), color and finish, custom shapes, and whether the existing opening needs modification. We provide an itemized written quote — never a rough verbal estimate. The quote is good for 30 days and there is no obligation to buy.

Impact Doors FAQs — West Palm Beach, FL
How much do impact doors cost in West Palm Beach?+
Impact entry doors in West Palm Beach typically run $3,500 to $6,500 installed. Impact sliding glass doors run $5,000 to $12,000 depending on panel count and size. French doors fall between those ranges. Multi-panel sliders (OXXO, three or four panels) can exceed $15,000. We provide an exact written quote after a free in-home measurement.
Do I need impact doors AND impact windows for the insurance discount?+
For the largest wind-mitigation premium reduction, all glazed openings (windows AND doors) need to be impact-rated. West Palm Beach homeowners with only impact windows still get a credit, but it's substantially smaller than the full-opening-protection credit. If budget allows, replacing windows and doors together usually returns more in insurance savings over five years than the difference in cost.
Can I use the My Safe Florida Home grant for impact doors?+
Yes. Exterior impact-rated doors are an eligible MSFH grant improvement, alongside impact windows and roof tie-down upgrades. The state matches $2 for every $1 you spend, up to $10,000 total per home. We routinely combine impact doors with windows under a single MSFH application.
Do you handle permits for impact doors in West Palm Beach?+
Yes — every door installation is permitted through Palm Beach County Building Division (with City of West Palm Beach review) with wind-load engineering provided to the inspector. WPB requires a city building permit plus county wind-load approval for impact products. We pull both and coordinate inspections.
How long does it take to install impact doors in West Palm Beach?+
A single impact entry door installs in 4 to 6 hours. A multi-panel sliding glass door is usually a one-day install. Lead time from order to install runs 4 to 10 weeks depending on whether the unit is in stock or custom-built. We provide a written schedule before the project starts.
Do you sell impact sliding glass doors in West Palm Beach?+
Yes — impact sliding glass doors are one of our most-installed products. We carry two-, three-, and four-panel configurations (XO, OXO, OXXO) up to 12 feet tall in standard sizes, with custom heights and finishes available. Configurations are Florida Product Approval certified and pull permits without issue.
What warranty comes with the impact doors?+
Frames carry a lifetime warranty; glass insulating seals carry a 10-year warranty. Ballistic Window and Door backs the installation with a 5-year workmanship warranty. All warranty service runs through us, not the manufacturer.
Can impact doors replace my hurricane shutters?+
Yes — that's a primary reason customers install them. With impact doors and windows, you no longer need to deploy shutters before a storm. The protection is always-on. Many West Palm Beach customers tell us the peace-of-mind of not needing to put up shutters before evacuating is worth the upgrade by itself.
