  • Deadbolt (Sliding Glass Door)

    Deadbolt

    A deadbolt is a great idea as an additional lock for a sliding glass door. It can be installed either on the top or the bottom of the door.

    These locks are very practical and are among the best deadbolt options for sliding doors. There are different types—some use a simple hook, while others use a pin that goes inside the door, which requires drilling a hole. This older pin-style lock is not recommended and was commonly used many years ago.

    The extra lock is mainly for added peace of mind and improved child safety. We know that if someone really wants to break the glass, even ten deadbolts won’t stop them—but having one extra lock is still a good safety measure.

  • Sliding Glass Door Rollers

    Sliding Glass Door Rollers

    There are different types of rollers for sliding glass doors, and not every roller fits every door. If the roller is not compatible, the door will not slide properly—or may not slide at all.”

    Why this happens:
    The roller may be too large, causing excessive pressure and forcing the frame to spread. The roller may be too small, allowing it to slip or fall out of its housing. The roller may be too weak to support a heavy door, causing dragging or failure. Incorrect wheel material or height can prevent proper alignment with the track.
    Using the wrong roller creates stress on the frame and track, which leads to poor performance and premature damage.

  • Hurricane Sliding Glass Door Handle Replacement

    Hurricane handle

    Hurricane sliding glass door handles are very unique.

    They come in a variety of shapes and typically in three colors: black, bronze, and white. Finding the correct handle can be tricky because many of them look the same but must be 100% compatible to properly fit your door.

    Our professionals can source the correct handle through multiple suppliers, saving you time and frustration.

    Here is a local supplier where you can find a variety of hurricane handles. https://wpwfl.com/contact-us/

  • Window Repair In Pembroke Pines

    Half Circle Window

    A half-circle window is not cut with a regular knife. It is mainly a special-order item.

    You can always install temporary plexiglass and use different cutting methods as a short-term solution.

    In Pembroke Pines, Florida, there is no factory that fabricates this type of window on demand, but you can find local suppliers that sell plexiglass to use temporarily while you wait for the permanent window to be ordered and fabricated.
