Impact-Door Locks in Pompano Beach, FL
Replacing the lock on a hurricane-impact door in Pompano Beach, FL starts at $140 for a standard lockset and usually runs $140–270. Multi-point systems get a phone quote, because the new part has to fit what the door was approved with. Send a photo of the edge of the door and the label on the hinge side, if there is one.

Why do impact doors need matching hardware?
Broward and Miami-Dade form Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means products need a Notice of Acceptance (NOA) from Miami-Dade. The approval covers the tested assembly, not each part on its own. A Florida hardware supplier puts it bluntly: swap any component for a non-tested equivalent "and the approval no longer applies" (National Lock Supply). So before changing a lock type, for example from a standard lockset to a multi-point, check what the door's NOA allows.
Lock work versus door work
Our part is the lockset, and every piece we fit is one the door's approval allows. Swapping out an entire impact door belongs to another trade: that's permitted work, handled by a door contractor. If the frame is rotted, the glass is cracked or the panel no longer seals, we'll tell you so and stick to the lock.
What does it cost?
| Job | From | Usual total |
|---|---|---|
| Standard lockset or deadbolt on an impact door | $140 | $140–270 |

| Lockout on an impact door, standard lock | $95 | $95–160 |
| Multi-point lock gearbox or full set | phone quote | — |
Multi-point parts are matched to the door's brand; send the photo and you'll hear both the price and whether the part is on hand or has to be ordered.
What moves the price: multi-point versus single-point, the door brand, stainless finish, and whether the part has to be ordered.
How we handle an impact-door lock
- Identify the door: hinged or sliding, inswing or outswing, brand, and the lock type on it now.
- Match the replacement to the existing lock or an option the door's approval lists.
- ID with the address (owner or resident; a power bill, deed or lease naming you also works).
- Fit, then check that the bolt or points throw fully and the door still seals. If only the key is the problem, a rekey keeps the approved hardware exactly as it is.
Near the ocean
Coastal doors do better with 630 satin stainless and stainless fasteners than with plated chrome (626) (National Lock Supply). A Pompano Beach window installer notes that salt air makes standard aluminum frames oxidize much faster than they do inland (Republic Window). More on the salt-air guide and for A1A condos.
Strength the county asks for
The county's storm guide wants a deadbolt bolt extending one inch or more, plus top and bottom bolts on the fixed half of a French door pair (Broward County). Loose surface bolts on French doors are a quick fix before a storm.

Can I just buy a deadbolt at the hardware store?
Only if it's an option the door was approved with. Ask us before you drill anything.
My impact slider won't lock. That's sliding-door locks.
