Fast, Reliable Window Installation Across Hollywood
Window installation in Hollywood, FL runs $650-$1,450 per opening for a standard retrofit, and $1,100-$2,600 per opening when the job requires full-frame replacement with impact-rated glass. Every window we set in Hollywood must carry Miami-Dade NOA or Broward HVHZ product approval, because the entire city sits inside Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. That’s not optional paperwork. It’s the code tier that decides whether your window survives the next named storm or becomes the hole that lets the roof go. If you’re pricing windows anywhere from Hollywood Lakes to Emerald Hills, call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll give you a written, line-item quote with the product-approval numbers on it.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Window Installation Company
We’ve spent years working Hollywood’s specific housing stock: the 1950s-70s CBS ranch homes west of 95 with original single-pane aluminum jalousies, and the 1960s-80s mid-rise condo corridor along A1A where replacement windows trigger building-wide permitting. Homeowners here don’t ask us to beat the cheapest bid. They ask whether the frame material will hold up to salt air on the Intracoastal side, whether the product has Broward-recognized HVHZ approval for the permit package, and whether we’ll still answer the phone if a seal fails two years in. We will. A live person answers our phones 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. Dale Kessler founded TruePane on a rule that’s still on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Every installation crew that works a Hollywood job is background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice. Before the truck leaves your driveway, both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing with durations stated. That’s the Keystone Standard. If something’s not right, the Done Right Promise means we fix it. No paperwork fights, no arguing. Hollywood homeowners have enough on their plate with HOA letters and storm prep. They don’t need a window contractor who makes it worse.
Our Window Installation Services in Hollywood
Casement Windows
Casement windows are the workhorse for Hollywood’s older CBS ranch homes. They seal tight against wind-driven rain, which matters when your house faces the Atlantic with no barrier island buffer north of the Hollywood Beach strip. A typical casement replacement in Hollywood runs $700-$1,800 per opening depending on whether the existing rough opening needs reframing. In the Hollywood Lakes neighborhood, we see a lot of original steel casements from the 1960s that have rusted shut at the hinges. We replace them with marine-grade aluminum or fiberglass frames that don’t corrode the same way.

Awning Windows
Awning windows show up everywhere in Hollywood’s mid-century ranch houses, usually over kitchen sinks or paired with fixed picture units. They hinge at the top and shed rain while still venting moist Florida air. An awning replacement in Hollywood typically lands between $550 and $1,400 per unit. The salt-air issue here is real: uncoated aluminum hardware on the original units oxidizes within three to five years and the crank mechanisms seize. We spec stainless hardware and marine-grade finishes on every coastal-facing elevation.

Fixed & Picture Windows
Fixed windows carry the big glass loads in Hollywood living rooms and condo units facing the ocean. Because these openings can’t be secured by closing a sash, impact-rated laminated glass is the only option that meets HVHZ code on direct-exposure elevations. Fixed picture window replacement in Hollywood generally runs $800-$2,200 per opening for impact-rated units. The failure we see most often in Hollywood Lakes and along Polk Street is a compromised low-E coating that turns hazy from years of salt-air contact combined with thermal cycling.

Single & Double Hung
Hollywood’s ranch homes and 1970s condos are full of single and double hung windows that were never designed for hurricane loads. A double hung replacement in Hollywood typically costs $600-$1,700 per unit, plus more if the existing frame is rotted or out of square. On A1A condo buildings, we’ve seen hung windows where the sash weights have corroded so badly the windows won’t stay up. Impact-rated double hungs with stainless balance hardware solve that permanently.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including. We don’t push one brand because it’s what’s in the warehouse. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying, and we register both warranty layers in writing before we leave. For Hollywood’s coastal exposures, that often means Marvin impact-rated aluminum-clad units or Milgard’s fiberglass line, because standard inland vinyl frames don’t hold up to salt air the way a homeowner here needs. For a true comparison, see how our Window Installation team handles material selection across South Florida.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- Salt air destroying jalousie hardware. Uncoated aluminum jalousie frames along Hollywood Beach corrode within three to five years. Louvers jam, hinges snap, and wind-driven rain finds the rough opening. Replacement means full-frame impact-rated units, not hardware swaps.
- Condo boards spec’ing inland vinyl for beachfront buildings. We’ve watched A1A board-approved specs fall apart because the product lacked Broward-recognized HVHZ approval. The whole building permit stalls for months while the window package gets re-engineered.
- Original single-pane aluminum frames with failed seals. Most 1950s-70s Hollywood ranches still have their original windows. The aluminum is oxidized, the glass is single-pane, and the seal between panes (if there’s a double pane at all) gave up years ago.
- HVHZ paperwork gaps on previous replacements. A surprising number of Hollywood homes had windows replaced in the 1990s and early 2000s with units that don’t have current Miami-Dade NOA or Broward HVHZ product approval. When the homeowner goes to sell or refinance, the gap comes up in inspection.
Pricing for Window Installation in Hollywood, FL
Here’s what Hollywood homeowners should budget. A standard retrofit casement runs $700-$1,800. An impact-rated fixed picture window runs $800-$2,200. A double hung replacement runs $600-$1,700, and a full-frame replacement on a 1960s ranch with rotted rough framing can push $2,600 per opening. What drives the number: full-frame versus retrofit, impact-rated glass versus standard, framing material, and whether the existing opening needs reframing. Coastal-facing elevations above the Intracoastal should budget 20-35% more than inland elevations because the hardware and frame material have to be marine-grade, not standard. We give free written estimates with fixed pricing. No change orders, no surprise line items. Call (863) 334-2933 for an exact quote.

FAQs - Window Installation in Hollywood
A window in Hollywood costs 20-35% more than the identical model installed north of the High Velocity Hurricane Zone boundary because every unit must carry Miami-Dade NOA or Broward-recognized HVHZ product approval, and coastal exposures require marine-grade hardware and frame materials that standard inland specs don’t. That extra cost buys you a window that won’t oxidize at the hinges or fail code review when your condo board’s engineer checks the paperwork. For a precise number on your building, call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll quote it line by line.
No. Jalousie windows in a Hollywood Beach condo can’t be replaced unit-by-unit without board approval and a building-wide HVHZ product-approval package. Condo associations on A1A require uniform-spec glazing across shared-wall elevations, and Broward permitting won’t accept a unit-level product that lacks the specific product-approval paperwork for the building’s exposure category. This is a job for a licensed installer who’s handled building-wide replacements under SB 4-D milestone inspection pressure. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll walk you through what the board actually needs.
You know the low-E argon fill is compromised when the glass shows a milky haze that won’t clean off, or when condensation builds up between the panes on a hot Hollywood afternoon. Salt air accelerates coating breakdown on coastal elevations, and thermal cycling does the rest. Once the seal fails, the window loses most of its insulating value. The fix is glass replacement or full unit replacement, not a film treatment. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll tell you which one your building needs.
Marine-grade aluminum or fiberglass is the right frame material for Hollywood Beach’s direct salt exposure. Standard inland vinyl frames carry steel or zinc hardware that corrodes in ocean air, and the vinyl itself can warp under sustained sun and heat cycling. Marine-grade aluminum with stainless hardware costs more upfront but lasts far longer than a cheaper spec that fails within a decade. On the ocean-facing elevations above the Intracoastal, we won’t quote standard vinyl. It won’t hold.
Occasionally it does. Replacing windows in a 1960s Hollywood ranch can trigger an energy-code review under Florida’s current building code, and if the existing rough openings show rot or termite damage, the permit becomes a structural repair as well as a window install. On homes in Hollywood Lakes and Royal Poinciana, we also see pre-1990 wiring and sill plates that need attention once the old window comes out. None of this should scare you off. We handle the permit package and the inspection. Call (863) 334-2933 and we’ll tell you what your specific house needs.
What the Salt Air in Hollywood Actually Decides
Here’s something a Palm Beach County window rep won’t tell you because the field conditions don’t exist there. Hollywood sits directly on the Atlantic with no barrier island north of the Hollywood Beach strip. That means the same uncoated aluminum window that does fine 15 miles inland in Weston will start corroding at the hinges within three to five years on a house off Polk Street or a condo on A1A. The salt doesn’t just sit on the surface. It works into the hardware, the screen tracks, the balance systems, and the frame corners where caulk joints were never meant to take that kind of abuse. On a 1970s CBS ranch in the Hollywood Lakes neighborhood, we replaced original single-pane aluminum jalousie windows with impact-rated Andersen coastal aluminum-clad casement units, argon-filled low-E insulated glass, and flashing tape over the new buck opening. The old jalousies had hinges so oxidized they crumbled when removed. The new units sealed the envelope and cleared HVHZ NOA paperwork for permitting. The owners saw their summer AC load drop noticeably within the first month.
That’s the material conversation we have on nearly every Hollywood job. It’s not about the schedule. It’s about whether the frame and hardware will survive the twenty-five years the homeowner plans to stay in the house. The cheap inland-spec window costs less on day one and fails within a decade on a direct-exposure elevation. The coastal spec costs 20-35% more and lasts twice as long. We know which one we’d put in our own mother’s house, and we’d tell you to your face which one is the right call for your specific elevation.
