Repair and installation across West Palm Beach.
West Palm Beach is Palm Beach County's largest city, with 117,415 residents at the 2020 Census and a history going back to its incorporation in 1894. Its homes cover more than a century: 1920s cottages and bungalows in the historic districts, post-war and mid-century houses in between, and newer gated communities like Ibis, Andros Isles and Baywinds on the west side.
We repair and replace garage doors in all of them: broken torsion springs, frayed cables, worn rollers, bent tracks, opener repair and replacement, and new doors, including impact-rated doors for hurricane protection. You get the price before any work starts, and every spring we install comes with a 1-year parts and labor warranty.
What we fix and install.
Replacing a garage door in West Palm Beach: what to know.
Permits: West Palm Beach requires a building permit to replace windows and doors, and the new door has to meet local wind loads and follow its Florida Product Approval. Permits come from the city's Building Division (Development Services). We pull the permit as part of the job.
Historic districts: The city has more than 15 locally designated historic districts, including El Cid, Flamingo Park, Grandview Heights, Old Northwood, Vedado and Prospect/Southland Park. Its Certificate of Appropriateness rules cover garage doors: a replacement in the same material, style and size is reviewed by staff along with the building permit, while a change in material or style needs a minor Certificate of Appropriateness. We supply the product details and photos for the application. See the city's historic preservation page.
HOA communities: In gated communities like Ibis, Andros Isles and Baywinds, check with your association before choosing a new door. Many set rules on style and color, and we can give you the product specs the architectural committee asks for.
Hurricane rules: Palm Beach County is a wind-borne debris region under the Florida Building Code. It is not in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which covers only Miami-Dade and Broward. Replacement garage doors here need to be impact-rated or protected by approved shutters, with Florida Product Approval for your home's design pressure. More on hurricane-rated garage doors.
Salt air: Homes along Flagler Drive and the Lake Worth Lagoon get more salt air than homes inland. Galvanized or stainless-steel springs and hardware hold up better there.

West Palm Beach customers ask.
Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in West Palm Beach?
Yes. The city's permit FAQ says a permit is required to replace windows and doors, and the door must meet local wind loads and its Florida Product Approval. We pull the permit for you.
My home is in a historic district. Can I still replace the garage door?
Yes. A door in the same material, style and size is reviewed by city staff along with the building permit. If you want a different material or style, you'll need a minor Certificate of Appropriateness first. We'll provide the product information and photos for the application.
Do you serve unincorporated West Palm Beach addresses?
Yes. Many "West Palm Beach" mailing addresses, such as Westgate, are outside city limits. We serve them all; permits there come from Palm Beach County instead of the city.
Does a new garage door in West Palm Beach have to be impact-rated?
Yes, or it has to be protected by approved shutters. Palm Beach County is a wind-borne debris region (it is not in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which covers Miami-Dade and Broward), so a replacement door needs Florida Product Approval for the design pressure at your home. We size and spec that for you. See hurricane-rated garage doors.
How much does garage door repair cost in West Palm Beach?
It depends on the repair. A single torsion spring replacement starts at $189, including parts, labor and a 1-year warranty, and you get the price before any work starts. Our Palm Beach County repair cost guide lists typical prices for other repairs.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We hold Florida Registered Residential Contractor license RR282812266 and carry general liability insurance. Details are on our licenses and insurance page.
What customers say.
“Lift Kings provided a garage door with a remote system, security keypad, effortless raising and closing with sensor to protect the young ones. ... All this was at a price very much within my budget and on a schedule agreed to and followed up on as was agreed to, a rare commodity these days.”
