AfterFast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Palm Beach
Custom windows and doors in Palm Beach, FL almost always mean navigating two sets of rules at once: Florida’s hurricane-impact glazing code and the Town’s Architectural Review Commission (ARCOM) design standards. A standard off-the-shelf window that works in West Palm Beach will get rejected here before the permit is even filed. TruePane handles both tracks on every project, from the first measurement to the final inspection. If you’re planning a window or door replacement on the island, call (954) 280-4413 and we’ll walk you through what your specific property actually needs.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company
We have earned our place in Palm Beach by doing the paperwork right the first time. ARCOM submissions, wind-load calculations, Miami-Dade NOA documentation, insurance compliance letters. Homeowners on South Ocean Boulevard, El Bravo Way, and along the Lake Trail value a contractor who treats those steps as core work, not an afterthought. Dale Kessler founded this company on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That applies to the paperwork as much as the glass.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and we measure every opening twice before ordering anything. Palm Beach properties demand a different level of care than a production subdivision. The window reveals on a 1930s Addison Mizner estate are never perfectly square. We account for that, and our quotes reflect real conditions, not idealized ones. We are an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, and more than a dozen other manufacturer lines, and we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That is The Keystone Standard, and it is on every project we do.
Homeowners here tend to be thorough. They have lived through enough storms and enough contractors to know the difference between a promise and a written guarantee. Our Done Right Promise backs the workmanship, and we have stood behind it since 2008 of community service across South Florida. When a Palm Beach customer calls, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree. That has always been how we run the office.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Palm Beach
Every project on the island starts with understanding the structure itself. Thick stucco walls, original steel casement frames, and architectural detailing that cannot simply be covered with a standard replacement flange. Our Custom Windows & Doors team works from the opening outward, specifying glass, frame, finish, and hardware that meet both code and design review. These are the services Palm Beach homeowners ask us about most.
Custom Shape Windows
Arched windows, eyebrow tops, circular portholes, and leaded-glass transoms show up constantly in Palm Beach’s Mediterranean Revival homes. Replacing one is not a trip to the lumberyard. We template every custom shape on site, then order from manufacturers who mill to our exact radius and angle. On Worth Avenue-facing properties and along the Intracoastal, these windows carry double exposure to wind-driven rain, so we specify heavy-gauge frames and laminated impact glass that meet the 180 mph design pressure required on the island.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Simulated divided lites, or SDLs, replicate traditional muntins without compromising the structural integrity of the impact-rated glass unit. Palm Beach’s ARCOM board looks closely at these details. We match grille profiles to the home’s original window patterns, using true contoured bars rather than flat strips, which is the difference between a replica and a convincing one. The Review Board on South County Road is particular about sightlines, and we have spent enough time in those hearings to know what passes.
Oversized Glass Panels
Oceanfront and lakefront estates often feature window walls and sliding panels 10 feet tall or wider. Those require laminated impact glass that can span the opening without sagging or warping, plus reinforced frames that hold the panel through a Category 5. We have installed oversized glass panels on new construction and retrofit projects from the North End to Phipps Ocean Park. Each panel is engineered to the specific wind zone, with calcs stamped by a Florida-licensed structural engineer, not a rule-of-thumb guess.
Commercial Storefront Glazing
Worth Avenue storefronts, gallery windows, and ground-floor retail along Royal Poinciana Way all fall under the same ARCOM review when the glass faces the street. TruePane handles commercial storefront glazing with the same documentation discipline we bring to estates. We coordinate with property managers and building departments, and we schedule installation around business hours to minimize disruption.
Curtain Wall Systems
Condominium buildings on the island with extensive glass elevations need curtain wall systems that perform under the harshest wind zone in Florida. We work with building engineers to specify aluminum frames with marine-grade coatings and thermally broken profiles. Salt air attacks from both the ocean and the Intracoastal, so the finish spec matters as much as the glass rating here.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
We install and service PGT, CGI, and Ply Gem products most often on Palm Beach properties because these manufacturers carry the Miami-Dade NOA approvals ARCOM and the Building Department expect to see. We keep parts for common PGT and CGI hardware in local stock, so a broken operator or a failed seal on an existing impact window does not wait two weeks for a shipment. Our Custom Windows & Doors in Palm Beach work leans on these brands because their warranty coverage is strong and their impact ratings are documented, which keeps insurance underwriters happy. If you have an existing Andersen, Marvin, or Milgard product on a Palm Beach home, we service those lines as well.
Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- ARCOM rejection on off-the-shelf impact windows. Homeowners buy a standard impact window, file the building permit, and get a notice that the design does not meet architectural review. Then the windows sit in a warehouse while the paperwork gets redone. We handle the ARCOM submittal before ordering, not after.
- Aluminum frame corrosion from double-sided salt air. Palm Beach sits on a barrier island with ocean on one side and the Intracoastal on the other. Standard aluminum frames without marine-grade coating start pitting and flaking within three to five years. We specify corrosion-resistant finishes on every oceanfront and lakefront install.
- Fogged or failed seals in original single-pane glass. Homes built between 1920 and 1960 often still have original steel casement windows with single-pane glass and failing putty. The fix is not a standard replacement. It is a custom-fabricated impact unit that matches the original profile, or an interior storm panel where ARCOM will not allow full replacement.
- Door slabs that bind and jam after storm-season humidity cycles. A custom entry door on a Mediterranean Revival estate will move with the seasons. We align, adjust, and when necessary, re-hang existing doors before recommending replacement. Replacing a historic mahogany door that still fits the jamb is usually the wrong call, and we will say so.
Pricing for Custom Windows & Doors in Palm Beach, FL
A custom-shaped impact window in Palm Beach typically runs $1,800 to $4,200 per opening, depending on size and profile complexity. Architectural grilles and SDLs add $150 to $400 per window. A full custom entry door system with millwork replication and impact glazing on a Mizner-era estate generally falls between $12,000 and $35,000. Oversized glass panel walls start around $900 per linear foot for standard impact glass and climb from there for larger spans or higher design pressures. Commercial storefront glazing on Worth Avenue or Royal Poinciana Way typically runs $85 to $180 per square foot when priced as a complete system with framing and installation.
What changes the price: ARCOM-required design revisions, stamped engineering calcs, custom-matched finishes, and any structural remediation needed around the opening. A cheap quote in Palm Beach usually leaves out the ARCOM submittal, the wind-load calculations, and the marine-grade finish. You will pay for those eventually, either in re-permitting or in early corrosion. Call (954) 280-4413 for a written line-item quote. Estimates are free, and we do not change the number once work starts.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Yes, if the window faces the exterior of the structure, ARCOM design approval is required before the Building Department will issue a permit, even for a single opening. The only exception is a repair that does not change the window’s appearance or dimensions, such as replacing glass within an existing frame. We prepare the ARCOM submittal as part of our quote, with drawings and finish samples, so the process moves without back-and-forth. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will confirm whether your specific window triggers review.
Palm Beach sits in the highest wind-speed design zone in Florida, which means windows and doors must carry Miami-Dade NOA approval with design pressures typically ranging from 140 to 180 psf depending on the opening size, height above grade, and proximity to the ocean. A compliant quote includes the stamped structural calculations for each opening and the NOA documentation for the specific product. We include that paperwork on every project, registered in writing before installation.
Yes, we custom-fabricate impact-rated steel casement replicas that match original 1920s-to-1950s Mizner-era profiles to within 1/16 inch. This is a specialty we have developed specifically for Palm Beach’s Mediterranean Revival housing stock. On South Ocean Boulevard, we replaced a corroded 1940s steel casement window with a custom Miami-Dade NOA impact-rated steel replica and handled the full ARCOM approval submission, including millwork drawings and finish samples. The client avoided a preservation violation and got documented compliance for their insurer.
Documented wind-load compliance, meaning NOA approval, stamped calcs, and a passed final inspection, is evidence insurers look for when you file a claim after a storm. If the window was installed without that documentation and fails during a hurricane, the insurer can deny the claim on the basis of improper or unpermitted work. We provide a compliance packet after every install: product NOA, structural calcs, permit closeout, and warranty registration. You keep that in your insurance file.
A compliant quote includes the ARCOM design approval submittal, stamped wind-load calculations for each opening, Miami-Dade NOA-rated product documentation, marine-grade frame coating for salt-air exposure, and permit closeout with final inspection. A cheap quote leaves most of that out, and the homeowner discovers the gap when the permit is rejected or the insurance carrier asks for paperwork. Our quotes are line-itemed so you see exactly what you are paying for. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free written estimate.
