What Our Custom Windows & Doors Service Includes

Custom work is not the same as pulling a stock size out of a warehouse. When an opening is arched, oversized, angled, or built before standard sizing existed, the unit has to be made for the house, not the other way around. We handle that from first measurement to final trim, and we do it with the same standard on a $900 repair or a $40,000 storefront package: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.

Custom Shape Windows

Homes built in the 1950s and 1960s across Hollywood often have half-rounds, eyebrows, trapezoids, and angle-topped windows that were framed by hand and are now failing. A custom shape window in Hollywood is any unit that does not come in a standard rectangular size, and it requires field measurement, templating, and a manufacturer willing to build to the opening rather than the catalog. TruePane measures every opening twice, orders to the exact radius and angle, and installs the unit so it seats square in the original framing.

Commercial Storefront Glazing

Storefront glazing covers the large aluminum-framed glass systems on retail and office fronts along Hollywood Boulevard, US 441, and in the downtown district. These systems fail over time at the gaskets and thresholds, and a cracked or fogged lite becomes a liability for a business that has to stay open. We replace lites, rebuild frames where needed, and schedule commercial work so the store does not sit dark during business hours.

Curtain Wall Systems

A curtain wall is a non-structural exterior glass wall, common on mid-rise condos and commercial buildings along Hollywood Beach and near Young Circle. Water intrusion at the mullion joints is the most common failure we correct, usually because the original install was not flashed properly against Hollywood’s late-summer storm cycles. TruePane evaluates the existing system, identifies the specific joint or anchor failing, and repairs or replaces sections with manufacturer-specified materials so the building envelope stays watertight.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs

Grilles and simulated divided lites, often called SDLs, are the bars that sit inside or on the surface of a window to create a divided-light appearance. Older Hollywood homes with original wood windows often need historically matched grille profiles when the glass is replaced, and the wrong spacing or bar thickness immediately reads as a bad retrofit. We match the original profile, spacing, and finish, working with manufacturers who cut SDLs to the exact sightline so the replacement unit looks like it belongs to the house.

Oversized Glass Panels

Oversized glass panels are any lite beyond a standard tempered size, typically over forty square feet, and they appear in Hollywood Hills view walls, patio enclosures, and modern first-floor remodels. These panels require specialized lifting equipment, a careful load calculation, and often a laminated or impact-rated makeup to meet Broward County code. TruePane handles the engineering and install for these larger lites, including the tempered and laminated markings required by Florida building code.

Brands We Service for Custom Windows & Doors

We are authorized installers for, which means we have direct access to factory technical support, OEM hardware, and the correct warranty registration process for each line. Marvin’s custom shape and oversize program is particularly useful for homeowners preserving the character of an older Hollywood house, and we have installed their best custom windows and doors in Hollywood, FL - their Ultimate and Elevate lines - in lakefront homes near North Lake and historic properties off Johnson Street. When we install a Marvin window, we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway.

For Jeld-Wen, we stock common replacement hardware and have worked on their wood, vinyl, and aluminum-clad lines across Hollywood and nearby Dania Beach. Simonton is another line we install regularly, especially for impact-rated vinyl windows where a homeowner wants a code-compliant unit without moving to a full aluminum frame. Whether you have Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, or any other make, we can service it, and when you are comparing a replacement, we will quote the lines side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you are buying.

Signs You Need Custom Windows & Doors Right Now

• Condensation between the panes. A fogged custom unit means the seal has failed and the insulating gas has leaked out. Custom shapes cannot be resealed reliably in the field; the glass package or the entire sash usually needs replacement. Left alone, the fog spreads and the thermal performance drops to nearly nothing.
• A door that binds or will not latch in summer. Hollywood’s wet season swells wood doors and shifts framing by a fraction of an inch, which is enough to make a custom door scrape at the threshold. The issue may be a hinge, a sagging header, or a door that was never properly fit to the opening. We find the actual cause and correct it rather than planing the door into a temporary fix.
• Visible daylight around an opening. If you can see light or feel air around a window or door frame, the unit is no longer sealed to the house. In Hollywood’s summer storms, this becomes a water-intrusion problem fast, and water in the rough opening rots the framing quietly. A proper reseal or reinstall now costs a fraction of a rebuild later.
• Cracked or bowed glass in an oversized panel. Oversized lites carry real load, and a crack in a large panel is not cosmetic. It is a structural warning that the glass has been overstressed or improperly supported. We evaluate the panel, the glazing channel, and the framing before ordering a replacement, because setting new glass into a bad opening just cracks the new glass.
• An opening that was always built wrong. Some Hollywood homes have windows and doors that were out of square from the day the framing was done. The homeowner lives with a door that has never shut cleanly or a window that has never sealed. TruePane does not patch those openings; we correct the rough opening, re-square it, and set the unit so it is true for the first time.

Our Custom Windows & Doors Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Measure and assess. Every custom job starts with two measurements of the same opening, taken by a background-checked, uniformed technician who works in your home the way he would work in his own mother’s. We check the rough opening for square, level, and plumb, and we note any water damage, rot, or framing movement before we ever order a unit.
2. 2
   Side-by-side quote on paper. We quote manufacturer lines side by side, with the glass package, frame material, hardware, and warranty durations written out line by line. You see the real cost difference between a Marvin and a Simonton, and you choose with the full picture in front of you. No verbal estimates, no hand-wave pricing, no surprise line items on the bill.
3. 3
   Order to spec. We order each custom unit to the exact measurements, specifying the correct glass makeup for Hollywood’s wind zone and code requirements. That may mean impact-rated laminated glass, a specific low-E coating for east or west exposure, or a tempered lite for a door or a low sill. We do not substitute a cheaper glass package to trim the bid.
4. 4
   Install clean and square. The existing unit comes out, the rough opening is inspected and corrected where needed, and the new unit goes in with the proper flashing, shims, and sealant for this climate. We check every unit with a level and square before we fasten the final trim. If the pane is not true, we reset it before we leave.
5. 5
   Register the warranty and walk through. Before the truck leaves the driveway, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing with the durations stated, and we walk the job with you so you can see the work for yourself. You get the Done Right Promise in writing on every job: if it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing.

How Much Does Custom Windows & Doors Cost in Hollywood?

A typical affordable custom window replacement in Hollywood, FL runs $1,800 to $3,200 for a standard residential unit, while an oversized glass panel or a custom door commonly lands between $2,500 and $4,800 per opening. Commercial storefront glazing and curtain wall repair work is priced by the lite and the condition of the existing frame, with most storefront lite replacements falling between $400 and $1,200 per lite depending on size and glass type. These are ballpark ranges for the Hollywood market, not a quote for any specific job.

What actually drives the price: the size of the opening, whether the glass must be impact-rated under Broward County code, the frame material, and how bad the existing rough opening is once the old unit comes out. The cheapest way to overpay is to buy on bid price alone and then accept whatever glass package and hardware gets substituted later. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so the comparison is honest, and our free estimate includes the full line-item price before you commit. Call (863) 334-2933 to schedule yours.
