Why Andersen prices vary by series
The Andersen 200 and 400 Series are aluminum-clad with standard roller cassettes — the most common Andersen door in Florida and the cheapest to repair. Universal-fit aftermarket cassettes work perfectly. From $179.
The Andersen Frenchwood Gliding Door is the wood-clad premium series. Heavier doors need heavier-duty rollers, and the wood interior surface adds complexity to alignment. From $199. The most common Frenchwood failure: bottom-roller flat-spots after 8–12 years.
The Andersen A-Series and E-Series are the architectural top-of-line. Larger panels, heavier glass, sometimes custom millwork. From $350. Replacement of these doors runs $7,000–$12,000 installed.
Repair vs replacement math
A new Andersen Frenchwood Gliding Door installed in Central Florida: $4,500–$7,500. A new A-Series or E-Series: $7,000–$12,000. Speedy full restoration: $550–$850. Replacement is the right call only when the frame is structurally damaged, the glass is shattered, or the door is pre-1985 and parts are genuinely unavailable. For everything else, restoration delivers 90% of the new-door feel for ~10% of the cost.
What Andersen warranty covers (and doesn’t)
Andersen’s standard warranty covers glass for 20 years and most non-glass components for 10 years. Roller wear is generally NOT covered — it’s considered normal wear. Lock cylinder failures may or may not be covered depending on the cause. We document our repairs so you have records if you ever need to make a warranty claim.
Why aftermarket parts work fine for Andersen
Andersen’s factory parts are sometimes 2–3 weeks out and significantly more expensive. Universal-fit aftermarket parts (Strybuc, Ives, Pemko) fit Andersen 200/400/Frenchwood doors identically and ship same-day. We use factory parts when warranty/insurance requires; aftermarket otherwise.
