AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across West Palm Beach
Impact window and door installation in West Palm Beach typically runs $900-$1,400 per opening for standard impact-rated units, with full-home replacements on a 1,800-square-foot CBS home landing between $18,000 and $34,000 depending on frame material, glass package, and whether the property sits in a historic district requiring Certificate of Appropriateness review. Most jobs take two to five days once materials arrive. TruePane Windows & Doors has served West Palm Beach homeowners with Impact Windows & Doors since our founding, and our crews know the difference between a 1920s masonry opening in El Cid and a 1970s aluminum-frame slider in a mid-ring ranch. Call (386) 251-6745 for a free estimate on any impact window or door project in West Palm Beach.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is West Palm Beach’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
We have spent years in this trade, and Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 with one rule on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That is the standard our West Palm Beach customers hold us to, and it is the standard we hold ourselves to on every masonry opening we flash in El Cid and every slider we set in Royal Palm Beach.
West Palm Beach homeowners call us because we answer the phone. A live person picks up 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When you call (386) 251-6745 about impact windows in Flamingo Park, you talk to someone who understands that a 1938 steel casement replacement is not the same job as a 1984 aluminum slider swap in a ranch off Forest Hill Boulevard. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. That matters in West Palm Beach because the Historic Preservation Board will not accept a generic submittal. You need a company that can spec the right simulated divided-lite profile and the right finish. We do that. Impact Windows & Doors in West Palm Beach is not a franchise playbook for us. It is our backyard.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in West Palm Beach
TruePane installs, replaces, and services the full range of Impact Windows & Doors for West Palm Beach homeowners. Four services make up the bulk of what we do in this city, and each one has local conditions that change the work.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most West Palm Beach homes built before 1990 still carry original single-pane glass in aluminum or steel frames. Those windows have essentially zero wind resistance, and Palm Beach County requires Florida Product Approval impact-rated glazing on any replacement. We install hurricane impact windows sized to the existing masonry rough openings, whether that is a 1927 CBS Mediterranean in El Cid or a 1968 wood-frame ranch near the Bear Lakes area. In historic districts, we handle the COA paperwork and spec simulated divided-lite units that match the original profile and finish. Outside historic districts, we quote standard impact units from Andersen, PGT, and ES Windows side by side so you see exactly what you are buying.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Salt air off the Lake Worth Lagoon eats aluminum frames, exposed hardware, and weatherstripping within five to seven years if the finish is not marine-grade. We see it constantly on older sliders in West Palm Beach homes. Our team replaces those units with West Palm Beach Sliding & Patio Doors spec’d for coastal exposure, using stainless hardware and reinforced tracks. On acreage lots outside the city grid, long material hauls and tight access change the equipment math. We scope crane and staging costs before we quote, not after.
Impact Entry & French Doors
An impact-rated entry door in West Palm Beach has to do more than hold glass under wind load. It has to seal against driven rain during a summer squall, resist salt-air corrosion on the hinge hardware, and close square in a masonry wall that has settled over 70 years. We install impact entry and French doors from manufacturers including ECO Window Systems, with butyl flashing at every threshold and exact shimming so the door does not bind in July humidity.
Impact Garage Doors
West Palm Beach has thousands of detached garages and carports, many on mid-ring ranch lots and acreage properties where the garage door is the largest unprotected opening. A non-rated garage door becomes a missile hazard in a storm. We install impact-rated garage doors and bracing systems that meet Palm Beach County wind load requirements, and we verify the track anchoring into CBS walls, which is where most installers cut corners.

Trusted Brands We Service in West Palm Beach
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for West Palm Beach customers that means access to the right product for the right opening. On a 1930s steel casement replacement in Northwood, we might spec Andersen impact-rated casement windows with simulated divided lites. On a 1980s ranch slider, PGT or ES Windows often makes more sense. On a Custom Windows & Doors in West Palm Beach job, ECO Window Systems give us profile and finish options that satisfy both the homeowner and the Historic Preservation Board. We stock common hardware, weatherstripping, and balance parts for the brands we install, which means most service calls in West Palm Beach get resolved in one visit.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in West Palm Beach Homes
- Original steel casement and jalousie windows in 1920s-1950s CBS homes. These units provide effectively zero wind resistance and the steel frames rot at the sills after decades of salt-air exposure. Replacement requires masonry rough-opening retrofit, not a simple frame swap.
- Aluminum-frame single-pane sliders from the 1960s-1980s. The Lake Worth Lagoon’s salt-air environment corrodes exposed aluminum and hardware within five to seven years. Tracks bind, rollers fail, and weatherstripping turns brittle. Spec’ing marine-grade finishes at replacement avoids repeating the cycle.
- Historic Preservation Board COA rejections. In El Cid, Flamingo Park, and Northwood, submittals that change the original divided-lite profile or frame finish get rejected. Homeowners who bought standard impact units before checking local rules end up paying for re-spec and re-permit.
- Undersized openings and wood-frame rot in 1960s-1980s ranch homes. Mid-ring West Palm Beach housing stock often has out-of-square rough openings and rotted sills where water has wicked into the frame. Setting a new impact unit correctly means addressing the rough opening first, not hiding it behind trim.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in West Palm Beach, FL
What you will pay in West Palm Beach depends on the opening, the product, and whether your property falls under historic district review. Here are honest ranges based on the jobs we quote in this city.
- Standard impact window, per opening: $900-$1,400 installed
- Historic district impact window (simulated divided lite, custom finish): $1,600-$2,800 per opening

On acreage lots outside the city grid, crane and equipment access costs add $500-$2,000 to larger jobs, and that is a line item we show you before you sign. Wind mitigation credits can offset a meaningful portion of the cost through reduced insurance premiums, and most West Palm Beach homeowners pursuing those credits recoup $1,800-$4,200 annually depending on policy and carrier.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in West Palm Beach
Yes. Any exterior window or door replacement on a property within a locally designated historic district in West Palm Beach, including El Cid and Flamingo Park, requires Certificate of Appropriateness review before a permit will be issued. The Board routinely rejects submittals that change the original divided-lite profile or frame finish. You need simulated divided-lite impact units with a finish that matches the original. Call (386) 251-6745 for an exact quote on windows that will pass COA review the first time.
Acreage lots outside the city grid often have long material hauls, tight or unpaved access, and no overhead clearance for standard staging. Setting a large impact sliding glass door or an oversized picture window with West Palm Beach Glass Railing Systems nearby requires a crane or a material lift, and that equipment cost is a line item on the quote. We scope access conditions before we quote so the number you sign is the number you pay.
Yes. If your 1940s CBS home sits outside El Cid, Flamingo Park, or Northwood, standard Florida Product Approval impact units are generally acceptable, though the masonry rough opening still requires proper flashing and shimming. What changes is the opening prep: 80-year-old block walls are rarely square, and rotted steel casement frames leave behind deteriorated sills. A correct install addresses the rough opening before setting the new frame. Call (386) 251-6745 and we will measure it properly.
Salt air from the Lake Worth Lagoon and the Atlantic corrodes untreated aluminum frames, exposed hardware, and weatherstripping within five to seven years. The fix is spec’ing marine-grade finishes, stainless steel hardware, and compression weatherstripping at replacement. In our West Palm Beach work, we default to coastal-grade materials for any home within two miles of the water, and we tell you exactly what you are getting on paper.
Yes, in most cases. Florida Statute 627.0629 requires insurers to offer wind mitigation discounts, and impact-rated windows with Florida Product Approval documentation are a primary credit. Most West Palm Beach homeowners we work with recoup $1,800-$4,200 annually depending on policy and carrier. We provide the documentation your insurer needs. Call (386) 251-6745 for a free estimate and a straight answer on what your wind mitigation inspection will credit.
One Thing Generic Impact Window Pages Never Mention
West Palm Beach is one of the only places in Florida where a homeowner needs to satisfy three separate requirements at once: Florida Building Code impact approval, masonry rough-opening retrofit into 80-year-old block walls, and Certificate of Appropriateness review from the City’s Historic Preservation Board in El Cid, Flamingo Park, and Northwood. None of those constraints applies the same way in Boynton Beach or Boca Raton. And on the acreage side of West Palm Beach, county rather than city permitting, septic and well setbacks, and long material hauls add equipment and access costs that a generic impact window quote never accounts for. We scope all of it before we give you a number.
On a 1928 CBS Mediterranean in El Cid, our crew replaced original steel casements with Andersen impact-rated casement windows using simulated divided lites and a bronze finish to match the original, securing both Florida Product Approval and a Certificate of Appropriateness. We flashed each masonry rough opening with butyl flashing tape and set the new jamb with a fusion-welded frame, eliminating frame rot at the sills and cutting air leakage to a fraction of the original. That is the job done right. That is the only job we do.
