A new garage door is one of the highest-ROI exterior projects you can do on a Palm Beach County home — Remodeling Magazine's Cost vs. Value report consistently ranks it as the #1 home improvement for resale return. Here's what new garage doors actually cost in PBC in 2026, fully installed, by style and grade.
Standard steel sectional (16x7): $2,200–$3,400
The most common new-door install in PBC. 25-gauge steel sectional, R-12 insulation, factory-painted in standard colors (white, almond, beige, sand). Includes the door, hardware, opener arm (if reusing existing opener), permit, haul-away of the old door, and a 10-year manufacturer warranty plus our 1-year install warranty. Lead time: 7-10 business days, then 1-day install.
Hurricane-rated impact steel sectional: $3,800–$5,400
Same size and style but with FL Product Approval-rated impact panels for HVHZ compliance. Includes reinforced struts, wind-load-rated tracks, and the documentation needed for wind-mitigation insurance discount. Typical insurance savings: $400–$1,200/year. Lead time same.
Coastal-grade hurricane impact (east of US-1): $4,800–$7,200
Same as hurricane-rated but with stainless-steel hardware throughout — fasteners, hinges, springs. Recommended for any home within 1500 feet of saltwater. Salt-air corrosion on standard hardware compromises the warranty within 5-8 years; stainless lasts 25+.
Carriage-house style with custom finish: $4,500–$8,500
Clopay Coachman Collection or Amarr Hillcrest series in faux-wood or stained-wood finishes. Popular in Wellington, Boca Raton, Manalapan, and Jupiter. Includes hurricane-rated impact panels (mandatory in HVHZ). Lead time 4-6 weeks for true custom.
Modern aluminum and glass: $6,500–$12,000
Glass-and-aluminum sectional doors — most popular in Hypoluxo Island, modern Boca Raton homes, and the newer Acreage and Westlake builds. Hurricane-rated impact glass available. Wayne Dalton TruChoice and Clopay Avante series are common. Lead time 4-8 weeks.
Triple-bay multi-door package (The Acreage): $8,500–$16,500
Most common Acreage and Wellington large-property install: one 16x7 or 18x8 double-car door plus a single 9x7 or 10x8, installed together with matched finishes. Includes two openers, all permits, and haul-away. Eligible for My Safe Florida Home grant — state pays up to $10K of the project.
Add-on: LiftMaster opener
Wall-mount jackshaft opener with MyQ Wi-Fi and battery backup (FL Code required since 2019). Installed during door install: +$649. Standalone install: $649-$849.
Wind-mitigation insurance discount
Florida insurers offer wind-mitigation credits for code-compliant impact-rated doors. Typical annual savings: $400-$1,200 depending on home value, location, and current policy. Documentation we provide (FL Product Approval, install affidavit, inspection sign-off) is what your insurer needs.
Common questions about pricing.
Is a hurricane-rated door worth the extra money in PBC?
Almost always yes — Palm Beach County is in HVHZ and the insurance discount usually exceeds the door price difference within 5-7 years of ownership. Plus, code-compliant impact doors protect the entire structure during a major storm by preventing the catastrophic pressure-differential failure that lifts roofs.
How long does a new door installation take?
Standard 16x7 single install: 4-6 hours. Multi-bay (typical Acreage) install: 6-10 hours. Same day in either case. Permit inspection happens within 1-2 weeks after install.
Does the door come with a warranty?
Manufacturer warranty (Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton): 10 years standard on sections, panels, and paint; manufacturer warranty applies on hardware upgrades. Lift Kings install workmanship warranty: 1 year.
Can I finance a new garage door?
Yes — we partner with Synchrony, GreenSky, and Acima. 0% APR options available subject to credit. No-credit-check lease-purchase option for lower-credit applicants. Most installs approve same-day.
Does Palm Beach County require a permit for a new garage door?
Yes — all garage door replacements require a permit. We pull the permit, coordinate inspection, and handle the entire process. The permit fee is included in our quote.
