AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Palm Beach
Impact window and door replacement on Palm Beach means navigating two rulebooks at once: Florida’s mandatory hurricane-impact glazing code and the Town of Palm Beach’s Architectural Review Commission. We know both. TruePane Windows & Doors installs Miami-Dade NOA-rated impact windows, sliding doors, entry doors, and garage doors that satisfy the strictest wind-speed design zone in the state, while matching the Mizner-era profiles ARCOM will approve. If you live on South Ocean Boulevard, El Bravo Way, or anywhere on the island, call us at (954) 280-4413. We will walk you through what your house needs and what the town will allow.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
Most of our Palm Beach clients have lived in their homes for twenty or thirty years. They remember the contractor who left them with a fogged seal and a door that binds in July. They are not looking for the cheapest bid. They are looking for a company that will still answer the phone in a decade.
We have been doing exactly that since Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008, carrying forward a family glazing tradition that goes back many years. Our technicians work on Palm Beach estates every month, and they know what the salt air does to aluminum frames on the ocean side versus the Intracoastal side. They measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
Everything we install is backed by the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, no fine print that covers neither. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. That is the rule on the whiteboard and the rule on every install.

Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Palm Beach
Hurricane Impact Windows
On Palm Beach, impact windows are not an upgrade option. They are a code floor. The island sits in the highest wind-speed design zone in Florida, with open ocean on one side and the Intracoastal on the other. Most of the homes we work on along South Ocean Boulevard and El Bravo Way are Mediterranean Revival or Spanish Colonial estates from 1920 through 1960, many with original Addison Mizner-influenced steel casement windows set into thick stucco walls. These openings rarely accept a standard off-the-shelf unit. We specify impact-rated steel casement replicas or custom aluminum units with sightlines that match the original profiles, then we document everything ARCOM needs to see.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Grand, architecturally detailed entry doors are a signature of Palm Beach estates. Replacing one is rarely a simple swap. We routinely handle door projects that require millwork replication, custom threshold fabrication, and hardware finished for salt-air exposure. Our team has installed impact-rated French doors and entry doors on homes throughout Palm Beach, and we quote Andersen, Pella, Marvin, PGT, CGI, and other manufacturer lines side by side so you see exactly what you are buying.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
A sliding glass door on an Intracoastal-facing wall gets salt spray from the water and wind-driven sand from every storm season. Cheap rollers and unsealed tracks fail fast out here. We install impact sliding doors with stainless steel rollers, marine-grade track systems, and proper flashing details at the jamb. The last thing you want in a July squall is a 12-foot glass panel that does not seat squarely in its frame.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors on Palm Beach take punishing lateral loads during hurricane-force winds, and a door that fails lets the storm inside. We install wind-rated impact garage doors with reinforced track systems and proper bracing, sized for the opening and the wind zone. Some older garages on the island have nonstandard openings, and we handle those with custom fabrication rather than trying to force a stock door into a frame it does not fit.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. On Palm Beach, we regularly work with PGT and CGI impact-rated lines, because their Miami-Dade NOA approvals carry weight with the town’s building department and ARCOM. We also service and replace hardware on existing Ply Gem and CWS units across the island. When a hinge or roller fails on an Intracoastal-facing patio door, we stock the replacement parts that get it working again without waiting two weeks on a freight shipment.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Pitting and corrosion at the jamb within five years. Fusion-welded aluminum frames not rated for simultaneous ocean and Intracoastal salt exposure develop pitting fast. We see it on both sides of the island, but it is worst on homes with direct ocean sightlines along South Ocean Boulevard.
- Fogged insulated glass units. Salt air works its way into the seal on double-pane units and breaks the argon fill down years earlier than inland. A fogged unit means the seal has failed, and the glass needs replacement, not a wipe-down.
- Original steel casement windows that cannot be removed. On ARCOM-protected estates, removing an original 1920s Mizner-era casement without approval can trigger a preservation violation, fines, or a stop-work order. Homeowners who attempt a standard replacement often find the project halted midway.
- Stucco jamb deterioration around old steel frames. The original steel windows on Palm Beach estates were set directly into stucco, and decades of salt and moisture have corroded the jambs. We see this on El Bravo Way and throughout the Estate Section. A proper replacement means addressing the surrounding stucco, not just the window itself.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach, FL
A standard impact window replacement in Palm Beach typically runs $900 to $1,800 per opening for a mid-range aluminum unit on an inland-facing wall. Coastal-spec windows on ocean or Intracoastal-facing elevations run higher, typically $1,400 to $2,600 per opening, because the frames, hardware, and glass packages are built for salt-air service and higher wind pressures. Custom impact-rated steel casement replicas for ARCOM-protected estates start around $2,500 per opening and go up from there depending on sightline matching and millwork.
Impact entry doors on Palm Beach typically run $4,000 to $12,000 depending on size, material, and millwork replication. Impact sliding glass doors run $3,500 to $9,000 for most island homes. Impact garage doors typically run $2,800 to $7,500.

Key Takeaways:
- Palm Beach requires both Florida hurricane-impact compliance and ARCOM design approval on most exterior window and door work.
- Salt air from the ocean and the Intracoastal attacks frames, seals, and hardware faster than inland homes experience.
- Coastal-spec impact windows cost more upfront, but the inland-spec alternative corrodes and fails within a decade, and then you pay twice.
- We quote PGT, CGI, Andersen, Pella, Marvin, and other lines side by side so you can compare real numbers, not sales talk.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
In most cases, yes. The Town of Palm Beach’s Architectural Review Commission must approve exterior window and door modifications on the island, and they can deny a replacement solely because the frame profile does not match the original Mizner-era steel casement, even if the glass meets Miami-Dade impact code. We prepare ARCOM submittal packages for our clients, including profile drawings and material specifications, so the review process moves without surprises. Call (954) 280-4413 to have us check your specific property before you buy anything.
Because Palm Beach is a narrow barrier island that gets salt-air corrosion pressure from two sides at once: open Atlantic ocean to the east and the Intracoastal Waterway to the west. That constant double-sided salt exposure degrades aluminum frames, hardware, and insulated glass seals measurably faster than properties even a few miles inland. A standard inland-rated window on South Ocean Boulevard can show pitting at the jamb within five years, while the same unit in West Palm Beach might last twelve or fifteen. We specify marine-grade finishes and stainless hardware on every Palm Beach install for that reason. If you are comparing bids, ask whether the hardware is 316 stainless or standard zinc-plated. The difference matters out here.
You typically cannot keep the original frames and glass, but you can keep the original look. We work with fabricators who build impact-rated steel casement replicas that match the original Mizner-era sightlines down to 1/8-inch frame depths. On a South Ocean Boulevard estate, our crew replaced a 1950s steel casement after the original jamb had corroded into the stucco. We matched the original sightlines, used hot-dip galvanized hardware, and concealed modern argon-filled low-E glass behind the same narrow muntin profile that ARCOM approved. The homeowner kept the architectural character and got a window that passes current wind code. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will tell you if your openings are candidates for this approach.
Expect to pay 35 to 60 percent more for a coastal-spec unit on Palm Beach compared to an inland-spec version of the same size. A 48-inch-by-60-inch impact window might run $950 inland-spec, while the coastal-spec version with marine-grade frame coating, stainless hardware, and a heavier glass package runs $1,400 to $1,800. The cheaper spec corrodes and loses its seal within a decade on the island, and then you pay for removal, disposal, and replacement. The coastal spec is the cheaper option over any realistic ownership window. Call (954) 280-4413 for an exact quote on your openings, and we will show you both numbers on paper.
Palm Beach sits in the highest wind-speed design zone in Florida, which means every impact window and door you install must carry Miami-Dade NOA approval, not just a Florida Product Approval. Some products that pass inland wind codes are not rated for Palm Beach’s wind loads, especially large sliding doors and tall fixed windows on upper floors. We specify only Miami-Dade NOA-rated products on the island, and we verify the approval number on every unit before it goes in the opening. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will check the approvals on what you are considering before you spend a dollar.
