Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Fort Lauderdale homes ask more from windows and doors than most of the country ever will. The HVHZ code means every replacement has to carry a valid NOA, and Broward County inspectors don’t wave things through. We know that because we’ve pulled permits and passed inspections in neighborhoods like Victoria Park and Rio Vista, where the CBS walls are thick, the jalousie openings are odd-sized, and the humidity never lets up. Homeowners here tend to be done with surprises. They want a company that shows up in a uniform, measures twice, quotes manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and registers both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s the TruePane standard, and it’s backed by a Done Right Promise in writing.
Founded by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler, TruePane has served local communities since 2008 through a heritage of craft and community commitment. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and send background-checked technicians into Fort Lauderdale homes with the same care they’d bring to their own mother’s house. We’re an authorized installer for, and other manufacturer lines, and we quote them on paper so you can see the difference yourself.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Fort Lauderdale
Window Installation
We install new construction and retrofit windows sized to Fort Lauderdale’s CBS walls and HVHZ requirements. Every opening gets measured twice, and every product we install carries the documentation Broward County wants to see. Learn more about our Window Installation in Fort Lauderdale.
Door Installation
Entry doors, French doors, and side lights all have to hold a seal against driven rain and salt-laden air. We hang doors that swing true and latch clean, even after the summer humidity peaks. Learn more about our Door Installation in Fort Lauderdale.
Window Replacement
The older Fort Lauderdale homes in Coral Ridge and Lauderdale Manors often came with single-pane sliders or jalousies that can’t be brought up to code with a retrofit. We replace them with impact-rated, thermally broken units and handle the masonry modification permit from start to finish. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Fort Lauderdale.
Impact Windows & Doors
Everything we install in Fort Lauderdale meets HVHZ impact standards, and we carry the NOA paperwork that proves it. If your condo board or insurance carrier is pushing for a Milestone Inspection upgrade along A1A, we handle that too. Learn more about our Impact Windows & Doors in Fort Lauderdale.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Impact-rated doesn’t mean you have to live with a hot house. We spec Low-E glass and thermally broken frames that cut the air-conditioning load while still passing Miami-Dade and Broward impact tests. Learn more about our Energy-Efficient Windows in Fort Lauderdale.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding glass doors facing the ocean or the canals take a beating from salt and wind-driven rain. We install sliders that roll easy, seal tight, and keep water on the outside where it belongs. Learn more about our Sliding & Patio Doors - Fort Lauderdale.
Glass Railing Systems
For canal-front homes and rooftop terraces, we install tempered glass railing systems engineered for a marine corrosion environment. The hardware won’t pit out in three years. Learn more about our Glass Railing Systems - Fort Lauderdale.
Custom Windows & Doors
When the rough opening in a 1958 CBS wall doesn’t match anything off the shelf, we build to order. Custom units take longer than stock, but they fit right and they document well at inspection. Learn more about our Custom Windows & Doors service.

Why Fort Lauderdale’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Fort Lauderdale is one of only two counties in the country that sits entirely inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Every window or door replacement has to carry a valid NOA and pass inspection with Broward County Building Division, which rules out a lot of the big-box product lines sold elsewhere in Florida. Add to that the city’s 300-plus miles of inland canals, and you’ve got a salt-air problem that reaches properties miles from the beach. We regularly see aluminum frames on canal-front homes in Rio Vista pitted and oxidized within a decade, vinyl welds yellowed at the corners, and stainless hardware seized up from marine corrosion. The summer thunderstorm cycle dumps wind-driven rain into any failing sill or weatherstrip, and by the time a homeowner notices the drywall staining, the frame underneath has been quietly rotting for years. Fort Lauderdale is not an inland Florida market, and the product specs have to reflect that from day one.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Fort Lauderdale
You can’t get an honest number without a measurement, but here’s a straight set of ranges for Fort Lauderdale work. Impact windows start around $850 to $1,400 per opening installed, with the masonry work on old jalousie openings often adding $200 to $500 per window. A standard impact-rated entry door runs $2,500 to $5,000. Sliding glass doors are $3,000 to $8,000 depending on size and finish. We quote line-item on paper, and we don’t come back later with change orders. Call (863) 334-2933 for a free estimate and we’ll give you the exact number before any work starts.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Fort Lauderdale
Window replacement in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $850 to $1,400 per opening for impact-rated units, with masonry modification on jalousie openings adding $200 to $500 per window. The final number depends on the size of the opening, the product line you choose, and whether the frame is still structurally sound. Call (863) 334-2933 for an exact quote, and we’ll put it in writing before you commit.
Yes, every window and door replacement in Fort Lauderdale has to meet HVHZ impact standards and carry a valid NOA. Broward County inspectors will not pass a non-impact unit on a replacement. We pull the permits, submit the product approvals, and make sure the paperwork matches the product before we touch the wall.
No, not with TruePane. We measure twice, confirm the rough opening, and quote the full job on paper before you sign. The only exception is if we open the wall and find damage that no one could have seen from the outside, and we’ll show you photo proof before any additional work starts. Call (863) 334-2933 to schedule your free estimate.
We do, and we’ve passed Broward County Building Division inspections on homes across Fort Lauderdale, from Coral Ridge to Victoria Park. Permits are included in our scope of work, not tacked on later. We schedule the inspection, meet the inspector on site, and don’t consider the job done until the final sign-off is in hand.
Most standard window and door replacements in Fort Lauderdale are completed in a single day, barring masonry work on older jalousie openings or custom-ordered units that have a lead time from the manufacturer. We’ll give you a written timeline before the job starts. Call (863) 334-2933 for a free estimate and an honest schedule.

What Fort Lauderdale Customers Say
"Our bay window had rotted at the sill and two other outfits wanted to talk us into a flat picture window instead. TruePane rebuilt the opening and matched the original look. Neighbors have knocked on the door about it."
- Gene A."French doors to the patio, custom size because this house was built in 1961 and nothing is standard. Measured twice, three weeks to fabricate like they warned, and the install day they laid runners over my floors without being asked."
- Marie S."Impact windows on the whole house. They handled the permit, the inspection, and gave me a folder with every approval number for the insurance company. My windstorm premium dropped enough to notice."
- Bill T.
