AfterFast, Reliable Window Installation Across Delray Beach
Window installation in Delray Beach means working with a specific set of rules: coastal wind codes, salt air, and condo associations that inspect every frame color and grid pattern before a permit gets pulled. A typical full-frame replacement in Delray Beach runs $900-$2,400 per opening, depending on product line and whether the building sits on the barrier island or inland. We know the difference because we work it every week. Call (954) 280-4413 for a written, line-by-line estimate.
TruePane has been setting windows in South Florida’s coastal communities since 2008, and our Window Installation crews know Delray Beach’s housing stock the way a mechanic knows a 1987 sedan: the weak points, the rust patterns, the places where shortcuts show up two summers later. We measure twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Delray Beach’s Preferred Window Installation Company
We built our name in Delray Beach the slow way: one Kings Point slider, one Century Village casement, one A1A oceanfront picture window at a time. Homeowners here tend to have been in their units for twenty or thirty years. They remember the contractor who fogged a seal and vanished. They ask harder questions. We answer them in writing.
Every TruePane technician is background-checked and uniformed. They work in your home the way they would work in their own mother’s: drop cloths down, openings cleaned, nothing left but the new glass and a signed workmanship guarantee. The Done Right Promise is not a brochure line. If something is not right, we return and make it right, no paperwork fight, no fine print.
We are an authorized installer for, PGT, CGI, and more than a dozen other lines. If you want ES Windows’ slim-profile aluminum for a modern oceanfront condo, or ECO Window Systems for a mid-century CBS ranch in Lake Ida, we quote both on paper, side by side, so you see exactly what you are buying. No vague hand-waving. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Dale Kessler, our founder, keeps one rule on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our Window Installation Services in Delray Beach
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows are the workhorse of Delray Beach’s 1970s and 1980s condo stock, especially in Kings Point and Century Village where original aluminum sliders are now hitting forty years old. Salt air four miles away does real damage to those tracks and rollers. We replace them with fusion-welded vinyl or aluminum sliders rated for Palm Beach County’s High-Wind Zone, and we match the original frame profile the HOA requires. A typical slider replacement in a Delray Beach condo runs $1,100-$2,200 per unit including removal, disposal, and finish matching.
Casement Windows
Casement windows seal tighter than sliders because the sash presses against the frame when cranked shut. That matters in Delray Beach, where August humidity and Atlantic-driven rain test every gasket. We install casements most often in single-family homes west of I-95, in neighborhoods like Sherwood Forest and High Point, where homeowners want better cross-ventilation without running the AC nonstop. Budget $950-$1,900 per casement, depending on size and impact rating.
Single & Double Hung
Double hungs remain the standard for Delray Beach’s 1980s CBS homes, and we replace them frequently when the sash cords fail or the original aluminum frames start sweating. A single or double hung in a Delray Beach home typically runs $850-$1,750 per opening for full-frame replacement. In 55+ communities we commonly spec single-hung units with the lower sash operating only, because the upper sash on a second-floor condo is not worth the extra cost or the fight with the architectural committee.
Fixed & Picture Windows
Fixed and picture windows are popular in Delray Beach’s barrier island condos and oceanfront homes, where the view is the point and the glass needs to handle direct salt spray. We install large-format impact-rated picture windows on A1A buildings, always with the correct structural mullions and the manufacturer’s written Florida Product Approval on file. Expect $1,400-$3,000 for a large fixed window, including the heavier glass packages required within a quarter mile of the ocean.

Trusted Brands We Service in Delray Beach
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we quote them side by side on paper so the decision is yours, not ours. In Delray Beach we install and service Andersen, PGT, CGI, Marvin, Pella, Milgard, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Jeld-Wen, among others. Because we are a local shop with local inventory relationships, we can often get replacement sashes, balances, and hardware for Delray Beach customers in days, not weeks. When an HOA demands a specific anodized finish or SDL grid from one manufacturer, we know which lines can actually produce it and which will stall your project for three months.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Delray Beach Homes
- HOA rejection after the fact. We have seen completed installations ordered ripped out because the frame color or grid pattern did not match the building’s original 1970s standard and written architectural-committee approval was never secured. In Kings Point and Century Village this is the single most expensive installer mistake, and it is entirely avoidable. We get written HOA sign-off before we order product, and before the county permit gets pulled.
- Non-compliant products sold as compliant. Some window sales operations sell Florida Product Approved units that are legal in Orlando or Tampa but not in Palm Beach County’s coastal High-Wind Zone. They fail the insurance inspection. Every window we install in Delray Beach carries a product approval specific to this county’s wind zone, and we put that documentation in your hand.
- Fogged seals in aging aluminum frames. In Delray Beach’s inland 55+ communities, the original jalousie and single-pane aluminum windows are four to five decades old. Seals have failed. Glass fogs from the inside. Replacing only the glass in a frame that is already corroding from salt air guarantees the problem returns. Full frame replacement is the only permanent fix for most of these units.
- Salt-air corrosion on west-facing sliders. Delray Beach sits three to five miles from the Atlantic in its western communities, with no elevation or barrier to shield the aluminum. West-facing sliders get afternoon sun and airborne salt, and we regularly see frames so oxidized the tracks are pitted through. We specify corrosion-resistant hardware and marine-grade finishes for any opening with west or southwest exposure within five miles of the coast.

FAQs - Window Installation in Delray Beach
Because Kings Point and Century Village are age-restricted condo communities governed by architectural committees that enforce visual consistency across every building, and those committees require written approval of frame color, grid pattern, and product specs before Palm Beach County will even accept a permit application for the unit. Skipping the HOA step and pulling the county permit first is the fastest way to have a finished installation rejected and removed at the installer’s expense. We secure written HOA sign-off before ordering product and before pulling the county permit, in that order. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will walk you through the exact sequence for your building.
Palm Beach County’s coastal High-Wind Zone requires Florida Product Approval, but it is a less demanding standard than Miami-Dade’s HVHZ, which adds stricter missile-impact and cyclic-pressure testing requirements. Some lower-cost products sold legally in Orlando or Tampa do not carry the approvals required in Delray Beach and will fail an insurance inspection. We install products with documentation specific to Palm Beach County’s wind zone, and we register both warranty layers in writing before we leave the driveway. Call (954) 280-4413 for a product approval check on windows you are considering.
You can replace only the glass, but in a 1970s jalousie frame the seals are already failed and the aluminum is often corroded from forty years of salt air, so glass-only replacement leaves you with fogging and drafts within a season or two. Full frame replacement is the permanent fix and is what we recommend for Century Village units. The HOA will still require architectural-committee approval on the replacement frame. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will inspect your openings and give you a written comparison of glass-only versus full-frame cost.
Salt air combined with afternoon sun accelerates oxidation on aluminum frames, especially on west-facing sliders in Kings Point and Century Village where the ocean is only four miles away with no significant barrier. We specify corrosion-resistant hardware, marine-grade finishes, and non-metallic frame options where the HOA allows them. Fusion-welded vinyl sliders hold up better here than older aluminum designs, provided the product carries the right Florida Product Approval for Palm Beach County. Call (954) 280-4413 for a material recommendation specific to your building and exposure.
Yes, window installation in Delray Beach requires a Palm Beach County building permit in addition to written HOA architectural-committee approval, and the licensed contractor is responsible for pulling that permit and passing the inspection. We handle both tracks: we secure the HOA sign-off first, then pull the county permit, then close the permit with a passing inspection before we consider the job done. A homeowner should never have to chase a permit on a window job. Call (954) 280-4413 and we will confirm the permit status for your building up front.
The Delray Beach Two-Track Approval Process: What No One Tells You
In Delray Beach’s Century Village and Kings Point, window installation follows a sequence that is unfamiliar to homeowners coming from single-family houses elsewhere in Palm Beach County. Before a Palm Beach County permit can be pulled, the condo or HOA architectural committee must sign off in writing on the frame color, grid pattern, and product specifications. The committees commonly require replacement windows to match the original 1970s bronze or white anodized aluminum profile, and many mandate specific SDL grid patterns for visual consistency across the building. An installer who orders product and pulls the county permit before securing written HOA approval risks a completed installation being rejected and removed at the contractor’s own expense. That is not a hypothetical. It happens in this city, and we have been called in to fix it.
We recently replaced jalousie windows in a Kings Point unit where the original aluminum frames had severe seal failure and salt-air oxidation from the Atlantic only four miles away. Our crew installed impact-rated low-E glass sliders with fusion-welded frames, first matching the condo’s required white anodized finish and SDL grid, then pulled the Palm Beach County permit only after written HOA sign-off. The job passed inspection the same week. That sequence, HOA before permit, is the only sequence that works in Delray Beach’s 55+ communities, and we have been doing it that way for years.
