I checked the local lumber yard, their price was good, they sub out the labor, and the guy they sent to give me an estimate ruined the deal. I woildn't let him touch anything..! One lumber yard had a good price, but their guy wanted $875. per door to install, over twice as much as anyone else. I kept checking until I found a company with a good price and a good installer.

Contact a Milgard Representative ›Install safety film to meet requirements for sliding glass doors that are not tempered glass. City of Los Angeles impact hazard glazing requirement: When selling existing single or two family dwellings, condominiums and apartments, impact hazard glazing or an approved film must be installed on every sliding glass panel of sliding-type doors.
Exclusions to this requirement include: wardrobe doors, bathroom shower doors and french-type wooden doors. (L.A.M.C., Section 91.2406.7 Effective May 24, 1986) Splintered, flying glass is one of the dangerous consequences of both natural and man-made disasters. In buildings where the government mandates tempered glass, window safety films can bring buildings up to requirements at costs far below that of replacing existing windows. Safety films are specifically designed to hold broken glass in place, reducing the chance of injury and property damage. They also make forced entry more difficult for would-be vandals and burglars. Metro Retrofitting uses safety film products which meet and surpass more government and international standards than any other films. These films have been extensively tested by independent testing facilities and meet safety glazing criteria as defined by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Council and Underwriters Laboratories. Materials are certified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and by the City of Los Angeles.
L.A.M.C. Sec. 91.5409 eff. Date 12/31/89 – Division 54 Glass & Glazing STANDARD FOR EXISTING BUILDING GLASS RETROFITTED WITH AN APPROVED ORGANIC FILM – LAMC 91.2406.7 LADBS Requirements when Selling Property Apply a generous amount of silicone along the pressure-treated lumber that should border your door jamb. Lift sliding doors and lay into place. Once the door is in place, add shims to make sure it's level. After you ensure that the door is plumb, secure it to the lumber with 2 1/2-inch wood screws. Have a partner hold the door tightly in place while securing the screws. Use a razor blade to cut the protruding shims from the door frame. Once the door is securely in place, install the hardware.
