This page is written for homeowners in Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, and the surrounding neighborhoods who bought Mr-Glass windows years ago and are now deciding whether to patch them or replace them. It’s a real decision, and it deserves real information, not a sales pitch.

How Mr-Glass Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

We’ve pulled a lot of Mr-Glass units out of Palm Beach homes over the years. The failures follow patterns. Here’s what we see and what we do about it:

• Seal failure on the Mr-Glass 7000 Series double-pane units. Palm Beach humidity is unforgiving. Once the desiccant strip inside the spacer is saturated, the seal lets go and you get that hazy film between the panes that never wipes clean. The fix is a full sash or glass pack replacement, not a defogging drill, which leaves the failed seal in place. We replace the insulated glass unit and register the new glass warranty before we leave.
• Warped vinyl sashes on the Mr-Glass 5000 Series. South-facing elevations in Palm Beach take full sun from about 11 a.m. until late afternoon. The darker vinyl extrusions on older 5000 Series sashes absorb that heat and bow over time, which is why the window locks but still rattles in a storm. A replacement sash with a reinforced meeting rail solves it. The frame usually doesn’t need to come out.
• Hardware fatigue on the Mr-Glass 3000 Series single-hungs. The tilt-latch springs and shoe guides on these are light-duty from the factory. After ten or twelve years of daily use in salty air, the latches fail to engage and the sash won’t stay up. We replace the hardware with a heavier aftermarket guide set rather than the original part, because the aftermarket set outlasts the OEM by years.
• Weep system clogs on coastal installs. Mr-Glass frames have narrow weep channels, and Palm Beach salt spray plus landscaping debris plugs them fast. Water backs up, stains the interior sill, and eventually rots the wood trim below. The proper fix is clearing the weeps, checking the sill dam, and if the channel design is too narrow for a coastal exposure, swapping the frame for a product with a wider drainage path.
• Original-install mistakes that show up years later. We see Mr-Glass windows in Palm Beach that were installed without enough shim contact under the sill, so the frame settled and the sash binds at the strike side. You can’t fix an out-of-plane frame by adjusting hardware. The opening has to be re-squared and the window re-set, which is a replacement-level job in most cases.

Our Mr-Glass Window Replacement Process

Every Mr-Glass job follows the same sequence, whether it’s one window or fourteen:

1. 1
   Call and scheduling. A live person answers at (850) 801-5596. We book a time, confirm it in writing, and show up when we say.
2. 2
   On-site measurement and diagnosis. Our technician measures the opening twice, checks the existing frame for square, level, and plumb, and identifies what actually failed. You’ll see the window the way we see it.
3. 3
   Parts decision. If the frame is sound, we quote an insert replacement. If the frame is rotted, warped, or out of tolerance, we quote a full frame replacement. We’ll show you OEM options and quality aftermarket alternatives on paper, with the warranty duration stated for each.
4. 4
   Written line-item quote. You get the number before any work starts. No change orders, no surprise line items, no phone call halfway through with bad news.
5. 5
   Replacement and setting. The old unit comes out, the opening is prepped, the new window is set square and shimmed properly. We register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway.
6. 6
   Test and cleanup. We operate the window through its full range, check the locks, and clean the glass. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s the rule.

Why Palm Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for Mr-Glass Work

We’ve been doing this work since 2008 across Palm Beach County. Dale Kessler grew up in El Cid and trained in glazing at Palm Beach State College, where the shop instructors were particular about sealant depth and frame tolerances in ways that have stuck with him ever since. He inspects every window frame he walks past, which his wife finds amusing and our clients find reassuring.

Every Mr-Glass replacement we install is covered by the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right, with no paperwork fights. We’re also authorized installers for PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, so when a Mr-Glass unit isn’t the right long-term answer for a coastal exposure, we can show you a stronger option side by side on paper. The quote tells you exactly what you’re buying. The warranty is registered in writing before we leave. We stand behind it.
