AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Ojus
If you live in Ojus and you’re pricing impact windows or doors, the number most homeowners ask us for first is $1,800 to $4,200 per opening installed, depending on size, custom rough-opening work, and the manufacturer line you select. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and we’ve worked on enough mid-century CBS homes across this community to know what the Miami-Dade inspectors will flag before the first screw goes in. Ojus sits entirely inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every replacement carries a code burden most contractors in Broward never touch. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll give you a written, itemized quote with NOA documentation, manufacturer warranty durations, and a fixed price before anything gets ordered.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Ojus’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
We’ve been called out to Ojus enough times to know the rhythm of the place: streets of 1960s CBS homes off NE 12th Avenue and North Miami Beach Boulevard, with original jalousie windows on the enclosed Florida rooms that insurers now refuse to cover. Homeowners here are not first-time buyers. They’ve lived in the same house for twenty, thirty years, and they remember the contractor who left a fogged seal and a door that jammed every July. Our crews show up in uniform, background-checked, and we measure every rough opening twice before we order a single unit.
Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a rule he still keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s why our work in Ojus carries the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. No paperwork fights. No arguing. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and that person can tell you exactly where your order stands.
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. That matters in Ojus specifically because this zip code demands Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance certification on every impact product. Most national brands don’t carry the NOA. You won’t find that out from a big-box bid.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Ojus
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most Ojus homes we work on were built between 1955 and 1975, and the original windows are single-pane aluminum sliders or louvered jalousies. Neither meets HVHZ code. We replace them with impact-rated casements, double-hungs, and picture windows from manufacturers like Marvin and Milgard, sized to the non-standard rough openings in older CBS walls. Custom sizing here is the rule, not the exception, and it adds four to six weeks to lead time. We tell you that on the first visit and we put it in writing.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
A sliding glass door that faces the Atlantic three miles away takes salt spray every day. We see aluminum tracks pitted and corroded within a decade on unsealed frames throughout Ojus. We install impact sliding doors with fusion-welded frames and stainless hardware that holds up to the inland coastal humidity. If you’re replacing a slider on a mid-century home, expect the rough opening to be out of square. We flash, level, and anchor to the concrete block with full perimeter fastening that passes Miami-Dade inspection the first time.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Hollow-core original entry doors are common in this housing stock, and they offer no meaningful windborne debris protection. We replace them with impact-rated fiberglass and steel doors, including French configurations, all carrying the Miami-Dade NOA. The jamb and threshold see the worst of Ojus’s humidity, so we seal the rough opening with flashing tape and closed-cell foam backer before the frame is set. That detail is what keeps a door from binding in July.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the most overlooked opening on an Ojus home, and they’re the first point of failure in a wind event. A standard two-car door carries a massive surface area of pressure, and if it gives way, the roof goes with it. We install impact-rated garage door systems, including reinforced tracks and bracing, sized and certified for HVHZ loads. We don’t patch old tracks with a new panel. We replace the system so the NOA covers the entire assembly.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus
We stock service parts for the common impact window and door lines found in Ojus, and we carry manufacturer certifications for Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, and Simonton. The brand matters less than the certification. In Miami-Dade County, every impact window and door needs a Notice of Acceptance. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see the performance ratings, warranty durations, and glass package options before you commit a dollar. We don’t hide lead times, and we don’t substitute a non-HVHZ product to hit a lower number. That’s how permits get red-tagged and walls get left open.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Ojus Homes
- Jalousie windows triggering insurance non-renewals. The original louvered glass on enclosed Florida rooms lets air and water through by design, and insurers writing wind coverage in Ojus are dropping policies at an accelerating rate. The fix is a full replacement with NOA-certified impact units, often custom-sized, which takes eight to twelve weeks from measure to install.
- Salt-air corrosion on unsealed aluminum frames. Sitting three to four miles inland from the Atlantic, Ojus homes live in warm, humid air that eats standard aluminum hardware within a decade. Frames that look fine on the outside are often pitted and seized at the jamb and sash. We replace with marine-grade or fusion-welded frames and stainless hardware.
- Non-HVHZ impact windows from out-of-county contractors. We’ve seen homeowners buy impact windows from a Broward contractor who quoted a low number, only to have the Miami-Dade plan reviewer reject the product because it lacks a Miami-Dade NOA. The permit gets red-tagged, the wall is open, and the homeowner is stuck paying twice.
- Fogged double-pane glass on impact windows less than five years old. In our climate, UV and humidity degrade weatherstripping and sealant faster than in Central Florida. If condensation sits between the panes, the seal has failed. Impact glass with a failed seal still meets impact code, but it loses thermal performance, and the manufacturer warranty is what protects you. We register both layers of your warranty in writing so replacement glass doesn’t become a fight.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Ojus
Insurers writing wind coverage in Ojus treat original jalousie windows on enclosed Florida rooms as an unprotected opening, which means the entire structure fails their wind-mitigation checklist. When the non-renewal notice arrives, the replacement schedule is controlled by custom-sized, NOA-certified impact units that take eight to twelve weeks to build. We’ve replaced those exact windows on a street of 1960s CBS homes off NE 12th Avenue after a homeowner’s carrier dropped them. Once the NOA documentation was filed with the permit, the carrier reinstated wind coverage at a lower premium. That’s the sequence, and we manage it start to finish. Call (863) 334-2933 to start the process before the policy lapses.
Custom-sized impact windows for mid-century CBS rough openings in Ojus take eight to twelve weeks from final measure to delivery. Most homes built between 1955 and 1975 have rough openings that don’t match modern standard sizes, and every custom unit must go through engineering and Miami-Dade NOA certification. We measure twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side, and order only after you approve the written price. Lead time is locked in before the order is placed. Call (863) 334-2933 to get your rough openings measured and a written schedule in hand.
No. Miami-Dade’s HVHZ code does not allow retrofitting impact-rated glass into existing aluminum frames that were never tested or approved as an assembly. The product must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance covering the entire unit: frame, glass, hardware, and anchoring. Existing frames on Ojus homes are typically single-pane aluminum from the 1960s, and many are corroded from decades of salt air. Reusing them would fail plan review and leave you with a red-tagged permit. Replacement is the only compliant path. A live person can walk you through what your openings need. Call (863) 334-2933.
When you pull a permit anywhere in Ojus, you trigger a High Velocity Hurricane Zone review for that opening, and the replacement product must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance covering the complete assembly. The installer must also anchor the unit to the concrete block using a fastening pattern that matches the NOA’s tested installation method. You can’t replace a single window with a product that only meets standard Florida Building Code, and every contractor has to provide the NOA documentation with the permit application. We file that paperwork on every job, and we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave the driveway.
Yes. Condensation between the panes on an impact window means the insulating glass seal has failed. The impact rating of the glass is not affected, but the thermal performance and clarity are gone, and the only correct repair is replacing the glass unit. The manufacturer warranty should cover the replacement glass if the seal failed within the warranty period. That’s why The Keystone Standard registers both warranty layers in writing, with durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. If a replacement is denied, we stand behind our workmanship for 90 days with the Done Right Promise. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll come out, take the sash measurements, and tell you exactly what the manufacturer will cover.
