Westlake is Palm Beach County’s newest city — incorporated in 2016 and still being built, street by street, as one master-planned community of brand-new homes. New construction has its own door-and-window story, and it is not the one people expect: builder-grade hardware wearing early, big sliding walls to the lanai settling as the house settles, entry doors shifting in fresh frames. LM Doors and Windows Repair covers door repair, window repair and door replacement throughout Westlake — the service side of new-home ownership.

Sliding Glass Door Repair in Westlake
Every Westlake home is built around its lanai, and the door to it is a wide sliding wall that starts life as the hardest-working door in the house. The pattern we meet is consistent: within the first years the panels begin to drag, thump over the track joints or need a hip to close. The cause is rarely abuse — it is specification. Production construction fits rollers and tracks to a price, and a wide panel on light hardware announces the economy early.
Our sliding glass door repair service corrects the specification rather than repeating it. Roller sets are upgraded to heavier, corrosion-resistant components sized to the panel; tracks are leveled and restored; locks, handles and alignment are set so the wall glides and seals as it was meant to. The hardware case is made in full on our sliding door roller & track repair page. Many roller and track repairs can be completed in a single visit, depending on the condition of the door and the parts required.
Settling is the second author of these calls. A new house moves a little as it takes its bearing — a fraction at the frame is a mile at the latch. We re-true panels in their openings as the structure finishes its early movement, so a door fitted in year one still closes square in year five.
Windows
Window Repair in Westlake
Westlake’s windows arrive new, uniform and under warranty-era expectations — and they still develop the standard list: balances that tire early on the big hung sashes, locks that never quite pulled the sash home, screens fitted loosely from the start. Our window repair service works that list at the part level, and — just as usefully for a new-home owner — it documents what it finds, so a defect that belongs to the builder’s warranty is identified as one, in plain terms.
Glass and screening complete the picture. Panes cracked by construction accidents or storm debris are changed inside the standing frame through window glass replacement; rated units are serviced on the impact windows and doors path; and the lanai screening that encloses half the living space is repaired and re-meshed under screen repair when it tears or pulls loose.
Because the stock is new, our philosophy here is simple: nothing in a five-year-old house should need wholesale replacement, and almost nothing does. What these homes need is the adjustment and hardware tier that production building leaves undone — delivered once, properly, and then maintained like any other house.
Repair or Replace
Door Repair vs. Replacement
In the county’s newest city, replacement is almost never the first answer. Here is the order of questions we ask instead.
Repair — Dragging panels, early-worn rollers, a latch a fraction off, a closer-grade annoyance at the entry. Adjustments and components — a focused door repair, and the house is back to the standard it was sold at.
Replacement — Genuine frame failure or storm damage through a unit: rare in new stock, and answered with a measured door replacement when it truly occurs.
Sliding doors — The upgrade path, not the replacement path: heavier rollers, restored tracks, trued alignment, and a sliding glass door that out-performs its move-in condition.
Impact / hurricane doors rate on fit and seals; in new homes both are checked against the rating the house was permitted for, and any shortfall is named plainly.
If a failure is a warranty matter, we will say so — the honest answer sometimes belongs to the builder, and we would rather you hear it from us.
For Businesses
Commercial Door Service in Westlake
Westlake’s commercial doors belong to its shared life: the community’s amenity and clubhouse buildings, sales and model centers, and the retail growing up with the city. They are new doors on a commercial clock — high cycles from opening day — and they fail early at closers, pivots and locks when the specification was light. Our commercial door repair covers that hardware, and commercial door installation covers the entries that need to be something better than they were built as.
Local Conditions
Why Westlake
is hard on doors
Nothing in Westlake is old — which is exactly its condition story: new houses, settling structures, and hardware specified to a builder’s budget.
- Early settlingNew construction moves as it takes its bearing; frames shift by fractions, and doors and windows print the movement as sticking, gaps and latches that miss.
- Builder-grade specificationProduction hardware is chosen to a price; rollers, balances and locks on wide, heavy panels wear on a schedule the brochure never mentioned.
- Heat and humidityFull South Florida climate on brand-new seals and thresholds — weatherstripping is tested from the first summer, and marginal fits start leaking early.
- Lanai livingThe sliding wall to the lanai cycles like a front door in these floor plans; volume alone wears light hardware past its design life.
Community & Association
One Community, One Set of Rules
Westlake is a single master-planned community, and its associations set the terms for exterior work across the city — approvals, appearance standards, access and documentation are part of booking any job here, however new the house. We work to that book as a matter of routine. Building and association requirements vary. Tell us about any approval, access, documentation, or Certificate of Insurance requirements when you schedule, and we'll coordinate with you and your building management before the work begins.
The community’s associations and managers can hold their Westlake stock under the arrangement on our association and property-manager services page — amenity doors, shared entries and in-home work coordinated to one specification.

A city being built in one campaign has a service advantage no older market can offer: the housing stock is known. The same floor plans, the same sliding walls, the same window packages repeat from street to street, and the early-wear patterns show up on a schedule a good crew learns by heart. When a Westlake door drags, the odds are strong we have corrected its twin two streets over — and the parts and the procedure are already proven on the truck.

Common Questions
Westlake
frequently asked questions
Common, yes; acceptable, no. Production builders fit rollers to a price, and a wide panel exposes light hardware quickly. The fix is a specification upgrade — heavier, corrosion-resistant rollers sized to the panel, the track restored, alignment trued. Many roller and track repairs can be completed in a single visit, depending on the condition of the door and the parts required.
The house did — by a fraction. New construction settles as it takes its bearing, and the entry shows it first: hinges, strike and latch drift out of their original geometry. Re-hanging and re-truing the door in its frame restores the fit; it is an adjustment, not a replacement.
Same-Day Appointments Available — call (305) 833-9474 to schedule.
Sometimes — and we will tell you when. If an inspection shows a defect that belongs to the builder, we say so plainly and document what we found, so the warranty conversation starts from evidence. For wear, adjustment and upgrades beyond the warranty’s scope, we are the call.
Yes — it is the most requested job in the city. The roller sets are exchanged for components rated to the panels’ weight, tracks are leveled and restored, and locks and seals are brought up to the same standard. The doors leave performing better than they did at move-in.
Yes — in a single master-planned community, that coordination is the job’s front door. Building and association requirements vary. Tell us about any approval, access, documentation, or Certificate of Insurance requirements when you schedule, and we'll coordinate with you and your building management before the work begins.
No. The pane is changed inside the standing frame, and on a new house the specification is matched so the repaired window is indistinguishable from its neighbors. Frame damage would change the answer, and we would show you that evidence before recommending more.
Yes — shared buildings are commercial work: closers, pivots, locks and glass on high-cycle entries, scheduled around the community’s hours. Associations can hold that work under a standing arrangement so it never waits on a purchase-order chase.
