AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Palm Beach
Impact window and door installation in Palm Beach runs anywhere from $900 to $3,800 per opening depending on size, historic review requirements, and the condition of the existing framing. Most projects on the island take between two and six weeks from first measurement to final inspection, with Landmarks Preservation Commission reviews adding time that mainland jobs never face. We measure, quote, and install impact-rated products that clear both Florida Building Code wind-load requirements and the town’s architectural review process. If you’re pricing impact windows in Palm Beach, call (386) 251-6745 for a written line-item estimate.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
TruePane has worked on enough Mediterranean Revival estates and mid-century island homes to know that a Palm Beach window opening is rarely standard. The Impact Windows & Doors team has dealt with arched heads, coral-stone surrounds, divided-light requirements, and frames that rotted quietly behind stucco for forty years before anyone pulled a jalousie. We quote the work honestly, including the revision allowances most contractors leave off the bid, so the price on paper is the price you pay.
Dale Kessler founded this company on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard applies to every measurement on Worth Avenue, every anchor pattern on South Ocean Boulevard, and every permit package we file with the town. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. We show up when we say we will. And a live person answers the phone at (386) 251-6745 any hour you call, not a voicemail tree.
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT and CGI, two names that carry weight in Palm Beach County. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That is The Keystone Standard, and we have never made an exception to it.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Palm Beach
Hurricane Impact Windows
A proper impact window in Palm Beach must do two conflicting things: meet the upper end of Florida Building Code design wind speeds for a barrier island, and satisfy the Landmarks Preservation Commission’s demand for historically accurate sightlines, muntin profiles, and exterior color. Off-the-shelf units fail one test or the other. We work with custom fabricators who build fusion-welded frames with laminated glass that clears both reviews, then we install them against anchors spaced for the island’s wind zone.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Older Palm Beach homes often have mid-century aluminum sliders that bind in the salt air and leak during summer storms. We replace them with impact-rated sliding doors sized to the opening, not forced into it. Track systems, multi-point locks, and rollers get selected for constant salt exposure. You get a door that glides in January and seals in September.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry and French doors on the island face a particular challenge: they are usually visible from the street, which means the Landmarks Commission cares about their profile, and they sit on the windward side of the house, which means the building department cares about their anchors. TruePane coordinates both permits. We measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and install doors that hold their reveal through hurricane season.
Impact Garage Doors
Impact garage doors in Palm Beach are not a standard panel swap. Many estate garages have architectural detailing that must be matched, and the door must be braced and anchored for the island’s wind loads. We specify reinforced track, heavier gauge steel or aluminum, and code-required bracing. The door gets documented for wind mitigation credits, which most Palm Beach homeowners use to reduce their insurance premium.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
We install and service impact products from Andersen, Pella, and PGT, plus custom lines like ECO Window Systems where the historic profile demands a non-catalog dimension. For Palm Beach customers, that means we are not locked into one factory’s idea of what an impact window should look like. We stock common replacement hardware and seal components locally, so a fogged insulated glass unit on a PGT slider does not sit open for six weeks waiting on a freight shipment. When a manufacturer line offers a better warranty term or corrosion rating for coastal exposure, we show you that on paper before you choose.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Salt-air hardware seizure: Multi-point locks, hinges, and fasteners on impact windows and doors corrode faster on the island than a few miles west. The Atlantic and Intracoastal both push salt spray across Palm Beach, and the hardware binds within a few seasons if it was not specified for coastal exposure. We swap in marine-grade stainless hardware and note the failure on the work order so the warranty is not voided.
- Fogged panes from seal failure: An impact window with a failed seal traps moisture inside the insulated glass unit. You cannot clean it, and no amount of defogging fixes it. The entire IGU gets replaced under the manufacturer’s seal warranty if it was registered properly, which is exactly what our Keystone Standard paperwork guarantees.
- Stop-work orders on historic openings: A contractor installs a standard impact casement on a Mizner-era home without Landmarks review. The town posts a stop-work order, the opening stays exposed, and the homeowner pays twice. TruePane files the landmark paperwork first and orders the custom divided-light unit second.
- Rotted framing discovered at removal: On 1920s to 1940s estates, the framing behind a stucco surround is often rotten where old non-flanged windows leaked for decades. No one sees it until the window comes out. We write a framing and flashing-tape allowance into the original contract so the discovery is already priced and approved before we open the wall.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach, FL
Impact window pricing in Palm Beach is not a single number. A standard single-hung impact unit on a newer spec home runs $900 to $1,400 installed. A custom historically matched casement for a Landmarks-reviewed opening typically lands between $2,200 and $3,800 per opening. Impact sliding glass doors run $2,500 to $6,500 depending on panel count and finish. Impact entry doors with full frame replacement sit between $3,000 and $8,500. What moves the price most on this island: custom divided-light fabrication, permit and landmark review time, and the structural remediation we find behind old stucco. We quote fixed numbers in writing. No change orders without your signature. Call (386) 251-6745 to schedule a free estimate and a line-item quote for your Palm Beach home.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Because two separate reviews must clear before we can order the windows. The town’s Landmarks Preservation Commission requires exact replication of original divided-light patterns, muntin profiles, and exterior color on designated historic properties. The building department separately requires structural calcs showing the unit and anchors meet the island’s higher design wind speeds. Mainland West Palm Beach jobs skip the landmark step entirely. That review, plus the custom fabrication time for historically matched units, typically adds two to four weeks. Call (386) 251-6745 and we will give you a realistic timeline for your specific address before you sign anything.
Three things, mostly. Rotted or undersized framing behind the stucco surround, missing or failed flashing tape, and corroded fasteners that no longer hold against the wind load the county requires. On 1920s Mediterranean Revival homes, we regularly find the original window opening is not square, which means the new impact unit needs custom shimming and possibly a reframed rough opening. We write a structural allowance into the contract for exactly this. If the framing is sound and we do not use the allowance, you do not pay for it.
Salt air on Palm Beach attacks multi-point locks, hinge pins, and track systems faster than anywhere else in Palm Beach County. The island is less than half a mile wide at points, so Atlantic spray and Intracoastal moisture hit the same house from opposite directions. Standard zinc-plated hardware will seize inside a few seasons. We specify stainless or marine-grade hardware on every coastal install, and we note the corrosion rating on the invoice so the manufacturer warranty stays intact.
No. Not legally, and not without exposing the homeowner to a stop-work order and the cost of removing what was just installed. On designated historic properties in Palm Beach, standard off-the-shelf impact casements will not clear Landmarks review, and installing without it means the town can halt the entire project mid-open. TruePane files the landmark application with the window shop drawings before we order anything. If your property is a contributing structure to a historic district, you need a contractor who knows both the wind-load code and the commission’s divided-light standards. We do both.
Because the fog is moisture trapped between the two panes, which means the seal around the insulated glass unit has failed. The impact laminate itself may still be sound, but the thermal and acoustic performance is gone, and the unit will keep degrading. You cannot repair the seal. The IGU gets replaced under the manufacturer’s warranty if both warranty layers were registered in writing at the time of installation. That is exactly what our Keystone Standard paperwork ensures, and why we register both layers before the truck leaves the driveway. Call (386) 251-6745 for a warranty check on your existing windows.
What Opening Up an Older Palm Beach Home Actually Turns Up
When a 1920s Mediterranean Revival estate near Worth Avenue gets new impact windows, the real work is rarely just window replacement. On one recent job, our crew removed a corroded jalousie window whose original coral-stone surround had crumbled around the jamb. After documenting the sash profile, we coordinated a custom impact-rated casement with a fusion-welded frame and historically matched muntin grid that cleared both the Landmarks Preservation Commission and Florida Building Code. We wrote the revision allowance into the contract before touching the wall.
That is what separates a real Palm Beach window contractor from a company that sells you a catalog number. Opening up an older island home routinely exposes outdated wiring run through window frames, undersized headers that no longer meet current wind-load span tables, dry-rotted sill plates, and failed waterproofing behind stucco that looks fine from the street. A permitting review triggers code upgrades once the wall is open, and if the contract did not anticipate them, the change order lands after the wall is open. We handle it differently: inspection first, then allowances written into the contract, then any surprise priced and approved in writing before we touch it. The price on your quote is the price on the final invoice. No arguing.
