Ignoring a compromised frame can lead to significant problems far beyond a sticky door.
A rotted or severely corroded frame can no longer properly support the immense weight of the glass door panels, creating a serious safety hazard.
Damaged frames create pathways for wind-driven rain to enter your home, leading to costly damage to flooring, drywall, and subflooring, and creating the risk of mold growth.
A weakened frame can make it easier for an intruder to force the door open, compromising the security of your home.
In many cases, a warped or rotted frame will prevent the door from moving or locking at all.
Our expert technicians can identify and repair issues specific to the type of frame you have.
Aluminum is strong and popular in South Florida, but it’s not invincible. Its primary enemy is our salt-rich coastal air.
Wood frames offer a classic look but are highly susceptible to the constant humidity and moisture in our climate.
We begin by carefully inspecting the entire frame to determine the full extent of the rot or corrosion, probing to find the boundaries between solid and damaged material.
Our technicians safely remove the heavy sliding door panels to gain full access to the damaged frame area.
We meticulously cut away and remove all rotted wood or corroded aluminum, ensuring we get back to a solid, stable base.
We apply material-specific treatments—such as wood hardeners or corrosion inhibitors—and then rebuild the frame's profile using high-strength, waterproof epoxies or custom-fabricated metal pieces.
Once cured, we sand the repair to a smooth, seamless finish and apply a high-quality primer and sealant to protect it from future moisture intrusion.
We professionally reinstall and balance the door within the newly repaired frame, ensuring a perfect, weather-tight fit and smooth operation.
You can check for a rotted wood frame by gently probing the bottom corners with a screwdriver. If the wood is soft, spongy, or flakes away easily, it has wood rot and needs immediate repair.
Yes, absolutely. Our specialty is performing precise, localized repairs. We can repair just the damaged corner or bottom sill without needing to replace the entire door unit, which saves you a significant amount of money.
The bubbling paint and white, chalky corrosion on an aluminum frame are caused by a chemical reaction between the aluminum, salt, and moisture in the air. This process is accelerated in coastal areas like Aventura.
Repairing the frame is almost always significantly cheaper than a full door replacement. A professional repair can add many more years of life to your existing door for a fraction of the cost.
The time for a frame repair can vary depending on the extent of the damage and the curing time for the materials, but most standard repairs can be completed within a few hours to a single day.
