Permits and California Code Requirements
In Long Beach area, a building permit is typically required when you're creating a new opening in an exterior wall or making structural modifications to an existing opening. Direct replacement of a sliding door in the same size opening (like-for-like swap) usually does not require a permit from most OC municipalities.
All new sliding door glass we install is tempered safety glass as required by California Building Code Section 2406. Tempered glass is heat-treated to be far stronger than standard glass and breaks into small, safe fragments rather than sharp shards. For exterior doors, we also ensure proper weatherstripping, thermal breaks, and energy-code compliance (Title 24) where applicable. Frames on our aluminum sliding doors use anodized aluminum for superior corrosion resistance in Long Beach area's coastal environment. We'll advise you on all permit requirements during your free estimate. If the new door also needs upgraded glass such as dual-pane or low-E, we handle that as part of the installation.

Our Installation Process
1. Measure & Quote
We measure the rough opening, assess the framing, and provide a flat-rate quote covering labor, materials, and disposal of your old door.
2. Door Selection & Sourcing
We help you choose the right door (or install your supplied unit). If we source the door, we coordinate delivery with your installation date.
3. Old Door Removal & Prep
We remove the old door and frame, inspect the rough opening, repair any rot or damage, and prepare the sill and header for the new installation.
4. Installation & Sealing
We set the frame plumb and level, shim, anchor, insulate, and seal against air and water intrusion — a critical step many installers skip.
5. Trim, Hardware & Final Test
We install interior and exterior trim, hang the door panel, adjust rollers and lock, and test operation before cleanup and walkthrough.
