AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Boca Raton
Impact window and door installation in Boca Raton runs $800-$2,800 per opening for standard impact-rated products, with full-home replacement on a 2,000-square-foot house typically landing between $24,000 and $58,000 depending on product line, coastal hardware upgrades, and ARC compliance requirements. Most whole-home projects in Boca Raton take 3-7 days for installation once the product arrives, but the approval process through your community’s Architectural Review Committee and Palm Beach County can add 2-6 weeks before work begins. If you live east of I-95 in neighborhoods like Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, The Sanctuary, or Spanish River Land, salt air is already working on your frames even if the glass looks fine. Call (954) 280-4413 to schedule a free on-site estimate and we will walk your property with you.
We know the difference between a Boca West submittal and a Woodfield Country Club submittal because we have stood in front of both committees. That local fluency is what keeps a job from stalling at the permit counter. Our Impact Windows & Doors team has been installing rated openings in Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris zone long enough to know which frame colors each community’s ARC will accept, which glass packages satisfy the inspector, and which coastal hardware actually survives a decade of salt exposure.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Boca Raton’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
TruePane Windows & Doors was founded by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier who started the company with a rule he still keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule governs every install in Boca Raton, from a single impact slider in Boca Pointe to a full-home casement retrofit in Broken Sound. We have been doing this work since 2008 as a craft tradition, and we plan to be here in thirty more.
Homeowners in Boca Raton tend to be people who have lived in the same house for two decades and do not want to replace their windows twice. They ask harder questions. They want to see both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That is exactly what The Keystone Standard does: both warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before we pull away. No fine print that covers neither the glass nor the labor.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They measure every opening twice. They quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying, not a vague upgrade pitch. And when you call, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. Every hour of every day. That matters when a storm is three days out and you need to know if your openings are actually rated.
Dale Kessler runs Impact Windows & Doors in Boca Raton the way a family company runs when its name is attached to the work: square pricing, honest timelines, and a Done Right Promise that says if it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights. No arguing.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Boca Raton
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most of Boca Raton’s original window stock is single-pane aluminum from the Arvida building era, much of it now non-compliant with Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris requirements. We replace those with impact-rated units carrying a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval, in frame styles that pass your specific community’s ARC standards. Expect to pay $1,100-$2,600 per opening for standard impact windows; larger fixed picture windows and custom shapes run higher.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
The slider is the most-used opening in a Florida house and the one most likely to leak during a wind-driven rain. Salt air east of I-95 accelerates corrosion on cheap rollers and zinc-plated hardware. In Boca Raton we specify stainless steel rollers, marine-grade tracks, and impact-rated laminated glass with a properly sloped sill pan. A standard impact sliding glass door in Boca Raton runs $4,500-$9,800 installed, including removal of the old unit and proper flashing. Larger multi-panel sliders and pocketing door systems run $14,000-$28,000.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors on Boca Raton homes take the brunt of the afternoon storm cycle, and French doors with out-of-true frames are a common failure point in homes where the original builder used wood jambs. We install rated fiberglass and steel entry systems, and impact-rated French door configurations that keep the traditional look while meeting current code. A single impact-rated entry door in Boca Raton runs $3,200-$7,500; a French door pair runs $6,000-$13,000.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the largest opening in the house and the one most often ignored during a retrofit. A non-rated garage door becomes a missile entry point in a storm and a liability during a wind mitigation inspection. We install impact-rated garage door systems with reinforced tracks and bracing that meet Palm Beach County requirements. Expect $3,800-$8,500 for a standard two-car impact garage door in Boca Raton, depending on insulation, window inserts, and track reinforcement.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Raton
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI. For Boca Raton homes east of I-95, we often spec ES Windows and ECO Window Systems for their marine-grade finishes and lower profile sightlines that Gulfstream and The Estates communities expect. We also quote ViewLux for homeowners who want a high-performance aluminum product at a friendlier price point than the full architectural lines. The point is not that we carry every brand. The point is that we will put two or three relevant lines side by side on paper, with actual numbers, so you can decide what fits your house and your HOA’s requirements.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Boca Raton Homes
- Corroded aluminum frames east of I-95. Salt air pits and swells original aluminum frame extrusions, particularly at the sill where standing water sits. Once the frame swells, the glass-to-frame seal fails and wind-driven rain starts entering the wall cavity. By the time you see interior staining, the damage is done.
- Permit submitted before ARC approval. Contractors who don’t understand Boca Raton’s dual-approval process submit the county permit first, then get forced into a redesign when the community’s Architectural Review Committee rejects the frame color or profile. That costs weeks and change-order fees. We pull ARC approval first, every time.
- Inland-spec hardware on coastal homes. Homeowners save a few hundred dollars per opening by choosing impact windows with zinc-plated fasteners and standard flashing tape, then watch the hardware rust and the flashing delaminate within five years of salt exposure. We specify stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware and high-bond marine flashing on everything east of I-95.
- Fogged glass from seal failure misdiagnosed as coastal condensation. A broken edge seal lets humid air into the interlayer, fogging the glass. It is not a coating issue and it does not go away when the weather clears. On impact-rated units, a failed seal does not compromise the impact rating, but it signals the edges are taking water, and that eventually becomes a frame problem. It should be replaced, not wiped down.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Boca Raton
No. The Boca West Architectural Review Committee is part of a covenant-controlled community, and its approval is a prerequisite for a Palm Beach County building permit. Ignoring the ARC means no permit, no inspection sign-off, and potential fines from your community association. Each ARC in Boca Raton, from Boca Pointe to Woodfield Country Club, has its own standards for frame color, glass type, and profile style. Bring the submittal to the committee before the permit goes to the county. We do this on every job in covenant-controlled Boca Raton communities, and we have the rejection letters from earlier contractors to show you what not to do. Call (954) 280-4413 if your ARC has sent you a correction notice, and we will re-spec the opening correctly.
Yes, though you cannot keep actual jalousie glass, which is categorically prohibited under current Florida Building Code wind standards. The path is a fixed-light impact-rated window with a profile that mimics the mullion pattern of the old jalousie, or a casement pair in an aluminum frame that still reads as the era. We just finished an impact-rated casement retrofit on a 1970s Arvida rancher in Boca West where the original single-pane aluminum frames had corroded at the sill from decades of salt air off the Intracoastal. The ARC would not approve standard white fusion-welded vinyl, so we spec’d a marine-grade aluminum powder-coat in bronze, low-E glass with argon fill, and stainless steel jambs, approved by the committee and the county inspector in the same submittal, and no callback since. That is the kind of submittal that passes the first time. Call (954) 280-4413 to talk through your specific community’s standards.
Coastal-spec runs 15-30% above the inland-spec version of the same model number. The difference is in the hardware and flashing: stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized fasteners instead of zinc-plated, marine-grade track components, high-bond flashing tape instead of standard, and sometimes a higher-grade powder coat on the aluminum. East of I-95 in Boca Raton, the inland spec will show rust and flashing delamination within five to seven years. You then pay for the window again plus the wall repair. The coastal spec is not an upsell. It is the correct product for the salt environment. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will show you the line-item difference on paper before you spend anything.
Hurricane shutters can satisfy the code requirement for wind-borne debris protection and are generally accepted by insurance carriers as an alternative to impact-rated glazing. But the practical difference in Boca Raton is this: shutters only work if someone is home to deploy them, and accordion shutters on a two-story house east of I-95 are a maintenance burden. Impact windows are always on. They protect the opening whether you are home or not. For insurance documentation, both work. For living in a coastal hurricane zone, impact windows are the better long-term answer. Call (954) 280-4413 for a wind mitigation consultation and we will walk you through what your specific policy and community actually require.
If the fog is between the glass layers, it is a broken edge seal, not salt air. Salt air corrodes frames from the outside in; it does not put moisture between panes. The fog is humid outside air that entered through a compromised seal and condensed inside the glazing unit. On impact-rated glass, a failed seal does not reduce the impact rating, but it does tell you the edge is taking water, which means the frame and the bonding are now exposed to more moisture than they were designed for. That becomes a bigger repair if left alone. Replace the unit now and the frame survives. Wait and you may be replacing both. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will inspect the opening and give you a written quote for the exact replacement glass.
