AfterEntry Doors in Naples, FL
Our Door Installation services in Naples typically run between $800 and $3,500 installed, depending on material, impact rating, and frame complexity – and most jobs are completed in a single day. At Winslow Windows & Doors, we’ve been installing entry doors across Naples since 2011, and Ed Winslow personally stands behind every one of them with our 36500-Day Done Right Promise.
Your front door does more than greet guests. In Southwest Florida, it’s the first line of defense against hurricane-force winds, so Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors are essential – plus the primary seal against our brutal summer humidity, and in a neighborhood where every home looks similar from the street, the detail that makes yours distinct. We spec, source, and install entry doors that meet Miami-Dade impact requirements, qualify for Florida’s energy-efficiency standards, and actually look like they belong on the house.
We’re part of the Door Installation in Naples services we offer, which covers everything from sliding glass and patio doors to impact garage doors. Entry doors sit at the front of that lineup – literally and figuratively. Call us at (239) 899-6411 any time, day or night, and a real person will pick up. No voicemail, no callback queue.
When You Need a New Entry Door
Naples homeowners put entry doors through a lot. Salt air off the Gulf, 60-plus inches of annual rainfall, and the occasional named storm don’t forgive a door that’s past its prime. Here are the clearest signs it’s time to call us about Replacement Doors:
- Your current door isn’t impact-rated. If it predates Miami-Dade Product Approval requirements or lacks a Notice of Acceptance (NOA) sticker, it may not legally satisfy your homeowner’s insurance policy – and it almost certainly won’t survive a direct hit from a Category 3 storm. We see this constantly in older Port Royal and Aqualane Shores homes that haven’t been updated since the 1990s.
- Visible rot, warping, or delamination on the door slab. Wood and hollow-core fiberglass doors absorb moisture faster in Naples’ humidity than almost anywhere else in Florida. Once the core is compromised, no amount of paint or weatherstripping fixes the underlying problem.
- Drafts, water intrusion, or light visible around the frame. If you can see daylight around the edges when the door is closed, you’re paying to air-condition the outside. In Naples, that’s a meaningful utility cost every single month.
- Hardware that sticks, binds, or fails to latch cleanly. A door that doesn’t close and lock easily is a security problem. Sticking is almost always a sign of frame movement or slab expansion – neither of which gets better on its own in our climate.
- An upcoming sale or insurance renewal. Collier County underwriters are increasingly flagging non-impact exterior doors at renewal. Replacing before the inspection puts you in a stronger position and may reduce your premium.
- You’re remodeling or adding a new exterior opening. Permit-required work in Naples means the door must be specified to current Florida Building Code. We pull the permits, handle the inspection, and make sure the product installed matches what’s on the approved drawings.
Our Entry Door Installation Process
We don’t show up with a door in the truck and start swinging a pry bar. Every installation follows a process that protects your home, keeps the job on schedule, and removes surprises from your invoice.
- Free in-home measurement and specification. One of our uniformed, background-checked technicians visits the site, takes precise opening measurements, assesses the existing frame condition, and documents the rough opening in full. We confirm impact-rating requirements based on your zone and check whether a permit will be required by Collier County. There’s no trip charge for this visit – period.
- Product selection and upfront pricing. Based on the site assessment, we’ll walk you through material choices – fiberglass, steel, or wood composite – along with glass options, finish, hardware, and brand. We work with Therma-Tru and CGI for entry doors, two of the most trusted names in the Florida market for impact-rated and fiberglass product lines. You’ll receive a written quote before any deposit is taken. The number on that quote is the number on your invoice.
- Permit filing (when required). If the project triggers a Collier County permit – which it will for new openings or structural frame replacement – we file on your behalf, coordinate with the building department, and track approval. You don’t have to make a single call to the county offices.
- Old door removal and frame preparation. On installation day, we remove the existing door and assess the rough opening. Any damaged framing, deteriorated sill plate, or compromised water-resistive barrier gets addressed before the new unit goes in. Skipping this step is how callbacks happen; we don’t skip it.
- Precision installation and sealing. The new door is set level, shimmed, and anchored per the product’s NOA specifications. Flashing, foam backer, and exterior caulk are applied in a sequence that prevents water infiltration at every transition point. This matters more in Naples than almost anywhere else – we see what happens to improperly flashed frames after a wet season.
- Final inspection and walkthrough. We test the door through full open/close/latch cycles, confirm deadbolt alignment, verify weatherstripping contact, and walk you through every feature of the new unit before we leave. If a county inspector is required for final sign-off, we coordinate that visit and make sure you have the closed permit for your records.
Entry Door Pricing in Naples
Entry door costs in Naples run higher than national averages for two reasons: impact-rated products cost more than standard doors, and labor in Collier County reflects the local market. Below are honest ranges based on what we actually install here.
| Door Type | Installed Price Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Steel impact entry door (single) | $800 – $1,400 | Most affordable impact-rated option; limited glass configurations |
| Fiberglass impact entry door (single) | $1,200 – $2,200 | Best combination of durability and aesthetics in our climate; Therma-Tru dominates this range |
| Fiberglass impact entry door with sidelites | $2,000 – $3,500 | Common in newer Naples Park and Pelican Bay homes; adds light without sacrificing impact performance |
| Double entry doors (impact-rated) | $2,800 – $5,500+ | Depends heavily on glass percentage and finish; popular in Mediterra and Grey Oaks estate homes |
| Frame replacement (in addition to door) | $300 – $700 additional | Required when existing frame is rotted, out of plumb, or undersized for the new product |
| Permit fee (Collier County) | $75 – $200 | Required for new openings or full frame replacement; we file on your behalf |
A few factors push costs toward the higher end: decorative glass lites, custom paint or stain finishes, multi-point locking hardware, transoms, and non-standard rough opening sizes. Homes on the water – particularly in Port Royal, Moorings, or Coquina Sands – sometimes require additional corrosion-resistant hardware because of direct salt exposure, and that adds to the hardware line on the quote.
Seniors and veterans receive a permanent 10% discount on all installations – no expiration date, no paperwork hoops. If you’ve already received a written estimate from another company, call us and we’ll give you a free second opinion. And any repair work over $200 gets $40 off, automatically.
Every estimate is free, and the price we quote is the price you pay. Call (239) 899-6411 to schedule your in-home measurement – no obligation, no pressure.
Why Naples Homeowners Choose Winslow
Ed Winslow started this company in 2011 because he saw too many Naples homeowners getting sold doors that weren’t properly specified for the Florida Building Code, installed by crews who’d never pulled a permit, and left with warranties that the installing company couldn’t actually honor six months later. His name is on the business – which means his reputation is on every door we hang.
The 36500-Day Done Right Promise is our core commitment: if the work isn’t right, we make it right. That’s not a limited window or a fine-print carve-out. It’s the standard we hold ourselves to because we’re a locally owned company with a published address in this community, and our customers see us at the hardware store. National chains can afford bad installs. We can’t – and more importantly, we don’t do them.
Every technician we send to your home has passed a background check and arrives in uniform. You’ll know who’s coming before the truck pulls up. You won’t get a stranger with a subcontractor lanyard and no knowledge of your project.
And when you call – at 8 a.m. or 11 p.m. – a real person answers. Not a recording that promises a callback by the next business day. Someone who can actually schedule your appointment, answer a product question, or connect you with Ed directly if that’s what the situation calls for.

FAQs – Entry Doors in Naples
Do I need an impact-rated entry door in Naples?
Yes – if you’re replacing an exterior door or adding a new opening, current Florida Building Code requires impact-rated product or an approved storm shutter system covering the opening. In Collier County, the wind speed design requirement for most Naples locations runs 160 mph or higher. A standard residential door purchased at a big-box store does not meet that threshold and will not pass a building inspection here. Beyond code, many homeowner’s insurance carriers in Southwest Florida now specifically require impact-rated entry doors at renewal – and if your policy requires them and you don’t have them, you may face a coverage issue after a storm. We only install products with current Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for the Naples wind zone.
How much does a new entry door cost in Naples, FL?
A single impact-rated fiberglass entry door installed in Naples typically costs between $1,200 and $2,200. Steel doors start lower, around $800 installed. Units with sidelites, French & Double Doors, or custom glass run $2,000 to $5,500 and up depending on size and finish. Frame replacement, if needed, adds $300 to $700. Collier County permits, which we file for you, typically add $75 to $200. The clearest way to get an accurate number is an in-home measurement – it’s free, and the quote you receive is the number on your invoice. Call (239) 899-6411 to schedule.
How long does entry door installation take?
Most single-door replacements in Naples take three to five hours on installation day. If we’re replacing a double door with sidelites or dealing with an unusually compromised frame, plan on a full day. We order your door after the measurement is complete and confirmed, and lead times for Therma-Tru and CGI products from our Naples-area suppliers currently run two to four weeks depending on configuration. We’ll give you a realistic timeline at the estimate stage – not an optimistic one that slips later.
Can you match the door style to my home’s architecture?
In most cases, yes. Naples has a wide range of architectural styles – from the Old Florida vernacular homes in Coquina Sands to the Mediterranean revival estates in Grey Oaks and the coastal contemporary builds going up in Vanderbilt Beach. Therma-Tru’s product line in particular covers a wide range of panel profiles, glass configurations, and factory finish options. CGI’s impact-rated entry doors offer solid performance with cleaner, more modern sight lines for contemporary homes. We’ll bring sample door books and finish chips to the estimate appointment so you can see options against your actual exterior before anything is ordered.
