Custom Windows & Doors in Hollywood - Free In-Home Measure, Written Price

Fast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Hollywood

Custom window and door work in Hollywood, FL is not a pick-any-contractor job. Every replacement unit in this city has to pass two separate product approvals before a permit gets pulled, and any company that does not know that will stall your project at the permit counter. TruePane Windows & Doors installs, replaces, and services custom windows and doors across Hollywood, from the beachfront towers on the Broadwalk to the 1950s CBS homes west of I-95. We know the local code, we know the salt-air corrosion patterns, and we show up with the right paperwork the first time. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company

Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule he still keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule carries more weight in Hollywood than in most places. A window that is not set square or not sealed properly against salt-driven wind will fail within a few seasons here. Our Custom Windows & Doors crew has spent years working Hollywood’s specific building stock, which means we know what a 1968 condo line along the Intracoastal looks like behind the old jalousie frames and what a 1972 CBS rancher in Emerald Hills needs for its original single-pane sliders.

Homeowners across Hollywood, from Lakes of Emerald Hills to Hollywood Lakes and down toward Hallandale Beach Boulevard, call us for the same reason: we write both warranty layers into the contract, register them before the truck leaves the driveway, and back the workmanship for 90 days under our Done Right Promise. No paperwork fights. No arguing about what the warranty covers. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, because when a window lets water in during a summer storm, you should not have to leave a voicemail.

We also stock parts locally for the brands Hollywood homes actually carry, so a sagging sash or a binding patio door on an older home does not turn into a two-week wait. Background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper. You see exactly what you are paying for before you sign.

Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Hollywood

Hollywood’s mix of mid-century single-family homes, beachfront condominiums, and commercial storefronts along US-1 demands a wider skill set than a standard window replacement crew carries. Here is what we do most often in Hollywood.

Custom Shape Windows

Arched, radius, octagonal, and trapezoid openings are common in Hollywood’s 1960s and 1970s custom homes, especially in neighborhoods like Hollywood Hills and Boulevard Heights. But a custom shape in the HVHZ is only code-compliant if the manufacturer has impact-test data for that exact shape and size. We verify the Miami-Dade NOA and Broward County product approval for every custom geometry before we order glass, because a beautiful arch window that cannot pass inspection is a costly mistake. Most custom shape replacements in Hollywood run $1,800 to $4,200 per opening, depending on size and whether the frame needs rebuilding.

Commercial Storefront Glazing

Hollywood Boulevard and the Dixie Highway corridor are lined with storefronts still holding single-glazed aluminum systems from before current wind-load standards. A storefront rebuild in Hollywood means meeting the same HVHZ requirements as a beachfront condo: impact-rated glazing, reinforced framing, and properly flashed sills. We handle storefront glazing for restaurants, offices, and retail spaces throughout Hollywood, pulling the dual product approvals and coordinating inspections so a business can reopen on schedule. Storefront replacement typically runs $80 to $160 per square foot installed.

Curtain Wall Systems

Hollywood’s mid-rise condominium towers, particularly the 1960s and 1970s buildings along the Intracoastal Waterway and north of Hollywood Boulevard, were built with original curtain wall assemblies that have outlived their design life. Salt air has worked into the aluminum mullions, seals have failed, and water intrusion is common. Replacing a curtain wall section in Hollywood is not a window job; it is a structural glazing scope that requires engineering review, HVHZ-compliant extrusion systems, and coordination with the association’s recertification timeline. We have done this work on Hollywood buildings facing the Broadwalk and understand what a 40-year recertification letter actually requires. Curtain wall replacement in Hollywood generally runs $120 to $220 per square foot, depending on height, access, and the condition of the existing structural embedments.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs

Older Hollywood homes often have divided-light windows with true muntins, and owners want the same look without losing impact rating. Simulated divided lites, or SDLs, give you the historical character with glass that meets current Broward County wind-load rules. We cut and install SDL grids in patterns that match the original sightlines on homes from the 1950s and 1960s. Custom grilles and SDLs typically add $250 to $700 per window, depending on pattern complexity and profile width.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood

TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Hollywood’s HVHZ work we regularly specify CGI, PGT, and ES Windows. CGI and PGT both carry extensive Miami-Dade NOA listings across their impact product lines, and ES Windows offers the thermally broken aluminum profiles that hold up better in Hollywood’s salt-air environment. Because we stock common parts for these brands locally, a broken balance, a failed roller, or a fogged sealed unit on a Hollywood home usually gets resolved without waiting on a regional warehouse. We recommend products based on what a specific Hollywood opening needs, not on what we have sitting in the truck.

Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

• Coastal corrosion on the east side. Aluminum frames installed in the 1970s along A1A and the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk area have often corroded through at the sill, which means new impact units cannot be set until the rough opening is rebuilt. We see this weekly in beachfront condominium work.
• Wrong product approval for the city. A contractor who works mostly in Palm Beach County will sometimes install a window with a valid Miami-Dade NOA but no Broward County product approval. Hollywood’s building department rejects the permit, the job stops, and the homeowner is left holding a non-compliant opening.
• Fogged and failed IGUs in original sliders. The single-pane aluminum sliders common in 1950s and 1960s Hollywood homes have long since lost their seals, if they ever had them. The constant humidity around the Intracoastal accelerates seal failure and fogging between the panes.
• Jalousie windows that leak air and water. Jalousies are still all over Hollywood’s older condos, and they were never designed for HVHZ wind loads or hurricane-driven rain. Associations undergoing 40-year recertification are being forced to replace them, often on a whole-building schedule.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Hollywood

One More Thing About Hollywood’s Dual-Approval Rule

Hollywood is one of the few cities in Broward County where every replacement window or door must be backed by both a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance and a Broward County product approval before a permit can be pulled. This dual-document check exists because Hollywood sits entirely within the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, and the city will not accept a product that has not been tested and approved under both systems. Contractors from Palm Beach County, where HVHZ standards do not apply, routinely miss the Broward approval and get stopped at the permit counter. You do not want to learn that lesson on your own project. A compliant quote from TruePane includes both approval documents, in writing, before you sign anything. If a contractor cannot produce them for the exact product and size they are quoting, that is your signal to call someone else.
