If your door, window, or shutter was damaged in a storm, safety is your first priority. Omega Doors & Windows provides clear guidance on what to do right after storm damage and rapid routing to our specialized repair teams for doors, windows, and shutters.
Expert repair for patio doors, entry doors, garage doors, and windows.
We understand Florida's unique climate and coastal building needs.
Quick arrival times and same-day repairs in most cases.
We use premium, long-lasting marine-grade parts and materials.
Proudly serving South Florida homeowners and businesses for 25+ years.
Quickly find the right repair service for your storm-damaged doors and windows. Safety is the first priority.
First, prioritize safety. Do not attempt to force a jammed door or remove shattered impact glass yourself. Impact glass is extremely heavy and requires specialized suction cups to maneuver safely. If you have a shattered window or door, keep the area clear and call for professional board-up or repair services immediately. We handle repair and replacement of doors, windows, and shutters. Please note: we do not offer roofing, water extraction, or general restoration services.
Every step is designed around one principle: you know exactly what's happening and what it costs before we touch your door.
Schedule same-day service by phone or form — we confirm your window quickly.
Your technician checks rollers, tracks, alignment, glass, and locks — the cause, not just the symptom.
You receive the exact price in writing before any work begins — no surprises, no pressure.
Most repairs finish the same visit, backed by a warranty on parts and workmanship.

See the Final Result
Before and after — a door that glides like new.
Every photo below documents an actual completed job — the specific part that failed, what we did to fix it, and how long it took.
Tandem nylon roller cartridge packed solid with hair, lint, and grime — door required two-person force to move.
Pulled the door panel, extracted both roller cartridges, vacuum-cleared the track channel, pressed in matched steel-bearing replacements, and re-seated the panel.
Bottom roller had completely seized — salt corrosion had fused the axle, leaving the panel dragging directly on the track.
Lifted the panel off track, pressed out the seized roller assembly, cleaned the carriage pocket, and fitted a new stainless-bearing roller matched to the frame profile.
Original Alcan factory rollers had flat-spotted and cracked after years of use — creating a rhythmic thump and catch on every pull.
Identified roller brand and profile from the patent stamp, sourced matching-spec replacements, swapped both cartridges, and adjusted height screws for even panel travel.
Single-wheel plastic roller had shattered under panel weight — door tilted and ground against the frame on each use.
Upgraded to a tandem-wheel carriage with nylon wheels and a steel-bodied housing rated for the panel weight, set height, and confirmed smooth travel across the full track run.
Bottom rail roller had corroded solid — common failure point on oceanfront properties where salt air attacks exposed steel.
Removed door panel, extracted the corroded unit, cleaned the roller pocket with a wire brush, and pressed in a stainless-rated replacement before re-hanging the panel.
Track was packed with poolside debris — sand, leaf matter, and dried lubricant buildup had created a rough surface that was chewing through the roller wheels.
Extracted the door panel, power-vacuumed the full track channel, scraped compacted debris from the lower groove, then lubricated with a silicone-based track compound before re-hanging.
Lower track had corroded and bent at the threshold — rollers were catching at the same point on every open cycle, and the door panel was noticeably harder to move in cold weather when the aluminum contracted.
Cut out the damaged track section, fabricated a replacement from extruded aluminum stock cut to exact length, drilled and anchored it to the threshold, then adjusted both rollers to the new track height.
Track surface had pitted from salt corrosion — the rough aluminum was catching the roller edges and accelerating wheel wear on a 6-year-old door.
Wire-brushed the full track run to break up corrosion pitting, vacuumed clean, applied a penetrating aluminum treatment to slow further oxidation, and resurfaced with a fitted track cap.
Existing glass panel had developed a failed thermal seal — condensation between panes and visible edge fogging made the door effectively opaque on humid mornings.
Removed the old insulated glass unit using suction lifters, inspected the frame gasket for wear, fitted a new double-pane unit, and sealed the perimeter before re-hanging the door.
Single-pane panel in an older frame — no thermal barrier, no impact rating, and visible stress fracture along the bottom corner.
Sourced a Guardian-manufactured double-pane unit matched to the existing frame dimensions, seated it with new glazing tape on all four sides, and re-tested the door hardware before leaving.
Every door we've fixed started with a free on-site diagnostic.
Get a Free Estimate — Same Day AvailableA sliding door that won't close, lock, or stay in its frame leaves your home or business open — literally. Our licensed technicians are on call to get your property secured and your door repaired as fast as possible.
A damaged sliding door is a security exposure, not just an inconvenience. Our emergency line is open around the clock. Call before 1PM and we guarantee same-day dispatch to Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Emergency calls cover shattered or cracked glass, doors that won't close or latch, and storm-damaged frames or tracks — anything that leaves your home or business unsecured.
When a door can't be fully repaired in one visit — a custom glass unit on order, for example — we can secure the opening temporarily so your property isn't left exposed overnight. Ask about this service when you call.
Our technicians can provide photo documentation and a written damage assessment during the service visit — useful when filing a homeowner's insurance claim for storm or impact damage. Ask about documentation support when you book your emergency appointment.
Pre-Storm Season Prep
Don't wait for the storm to find out your rollers are failing.
A pre-season inspection catches weak rollers, loose tracks, and failing seals before wind pressure turns them into a real problem. Book a maintenance check before hurricane season and know your doors are ready.
Don't wait until a warning is issued. Ensure your home is protected with properly functioning impact doors, windows, and shutters long before hurricane season begins.
Check all locks, rollers, and weatherstripping.
Ensure accordion shutters close and lock smoothly.
Look for signs of seal failure or cracks.
Lubricate moving parts with silicone spray.
Salt air, coastal humidity, and daily UV exposure degrade sliding door hardware measurably faster than inland climate. A single annual service visit catches the small things — a stiff bearing, a packed track, a failing seal — before they become a repair call. Most South Florida homeowners extend their door's useful life by 3–5 years with consistent maintenance, at a fraction of the cost of reactive repair or replacement.
Salt air penetrates roller bearings year-round, accelerating corrosion and flat-spotting faster than inland.
Fine quartz sand and salt crystals pack into track channels, acting as an abrasive that shortens roller life.
South Florida's heat cycles cause aluminum frames to expand and contract, gradually shifting door panel alignment.
Intense UV exposure and coastal humidity degrade rubber and mohair seals faster than in drier inland climate.
Salt air corrodes internal lock springs and latch hardware, quietly degrading security-critical components over time.
Ambient coastal humidity drives 60% acceleration in IGU seal failure, causing fogging and moisture infiltration between panes.

What's Included
Plan Name Options (Pick One)
CoastalCare Annual Plan — ties the coastal environment to the plan's purpose; South Florida-specific, feels proprietary.
SaltGuard Annual — names the primary enemy (salt air). "Guard" signals protection, sets frequency expectations.
Omega Shield — stronger, trust brand-forward, combines with ShieldCheck icon language used elsewhere.
Most homeowners assume a misbehaving sliding door means an expensive full replacement. In most cases, it doesn't. This section is a decision framework — not a sales pitch. If your door genuinely needs to be replaced, we'll tell you that. If a $250 roller swap will solve your problem, we'll tell you that too.
| Factor | ✦ Repair | Full Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | $150 – $600 for most roller, track, lock, or single-glass repairs | $1,500 – $5,000+ depending on door size, glass type, and frame material |
| Typical timeline | Same-day — most repairs are done in a single visit | Several days to several weeks: measurement, fabrication, delivery, and installation |
| Disruption to your home | Minimal — technician works on-site, door stays in its opening | Moderate to significant — full frame removal, possible wall patching, debris |
| When it's the right call | Isolated component failure: worn rollers, damaged track, broken lock, or a single cracked pane of glass | Structural frame damage, severe corrosion throughout the frame, rot, or a deliberate upgrade to impact-rated hurricane glass for the first time |
| Florida-specific consideration | Like-for-like component repair typically does not require a building permit | Impact-glass replacements in HVHZ zones typically require permitting and code-compliant installation — we handle this as part of any replacement job.

Our Honest Recommendation
If only one part of your door is failing — a roller, a track, a lock, or a pane of glass — repair almost always makes sense. It's faster, far cheaper, and once finished, indistinguishable from new. Replacement becomes the right call only when the frame itself is compromised, or when you're intentionally upgrading to hurricane-impact glass for the first time and want the full protection, insurance, and permit benefits that come with a certified installation. We'll give you both options with honest pricing before we start any work.
