Why Palm Beach Homeowners Choose Impact Windows
Palm Beach sits directly in the Atlantic hurricane corridor. The difference between code-compliant impact glass and standard annealed glass is the difference between your living room staying dry during a Category 3 and a tarp on your roof for six months. We’ve seen what happens when a window fails mid-storm. Flying debris doesn’t just break the pane. It pressurizes the house, and that pressure takes the roof. Impact windows aren’t an upgrade in this town. They’re how you keep the house you’ve lived in for twenty years standing through the next named storm.
In neighborhoods like the Estate Section, Midtown, and the North End, we regularly see original single-pane aluminum frames from the 1960s and 1970s with worn gaskets and frames that no longer square. Homeowners call us after noticing condensation between panes, a door that binds in July, or a utility bill that climbs every summer. The salt air along South Ocean Boulevard and the Intracoastal side of town works on aluminum frames year-round, and after three or four decades, the metal fatigues. We measure every opening twice and quote what actually needs replacing, not what a sales commission would prefer to sell.
Impact windows in Lake Worth Beach face the same salt-air realities, and we handle those installs with the same care. If you’re in Palm Beach and want a look at what your neighbor’s house was quoted, we’ll show you the line items on paper before we touch a single screw.
What Our Impact Windows Service Includes
Impact Window Installation
Impact window installation means removing the existing frame, checking the rough opening for rot or settlement, and setting a laminated, code-rated unit that carries both Miami-Dade and Florida Building Code approval. In Palm Beach, we install mostly on concrete block and masonry walls, which means anchoring schedules, shim placement, and sealant work that a tract-home crew from Broward won’t have the habit of doing correctly. TruePane Windows & Doors sends background-checked, uniformed technicians who measure every opening twice and set every unit so the sash operates true on day one and stays true ten years later.
When you need impact window installation, it’s typically because you’re buying or selling a home where the insurance carrier is demanding wind mitigation, or because you’ve decided to stay in the house and stop boarding up every June. We walk the property with you, mark which openings genuinely need replacement, and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying and what it costs.
Impact Window Replacement
Impact window replacement is the service for homeowners with existing impact units that have failed. A laminated pane can delaminate, a seal can fog, and a frame can twist over time, especially in a town where salt air works on aluminum every day of the year. We replace the entire unit, not just the sash, because a new sash in an old frame is a warranty argument waiting to happen.
You know you need this service when you see condensation trapped between the glass layers, when the sash no longer closes flush, or when an inspection report flags a window that’s no longer code-compliant. TruePane registers both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves and covers the workmanship for 90 days through the Done Right Promise, no paperwork fights.
Impact Window Tune-Up and Adjustment
A tune-up is the service that keeps existing impact windows operating the way they did the day they were set. Over time, rollers wear, tracks accumulate sand and salt, and hardware loosens. TruePane offers a maintenance check that includes cleaning tracks, lubricating hardware, adjusting sashes, and torque-checking the fasteners that hold the frame to the wall.
We recommend a tune-up before storm season and after any window takes a hard wind event. A window that binds or sticks now will be a window you can’t close when the winds pick up and you need it sealed. This service catches small problems before they become a full replacement, and it’s the cheapest insurance a Palm Beach homeowner can buy.
Impact Window Glass Repair
When a thrown branch or a pressure-wash accident damages the outer lite of an impact window, the laminated interlayer often holds the glass in place. That’s the window doing its job. But the damaged lite still needs replacement because the protective outer layer is compromised, and the unit will not perform as rated in the next storm. TruePane replaces the glass in a damaged unit when the frame is sound, or replaces the entire unit when the frame has lost its anchoring integrity.
We stock replacement glass for PGT, CGI, CWS units, and we can source OEM glass for virtually any impact window ever installed in Palm Beach. And don’t wait. A damaged outer lite is a gap in your storm envelope, and the next named storm won’t care that it’s still on your to-do list. a free written repair estimate, and we’ll be there when we say.
Impact Window Hardware Replacement
Handles, hinges, latches, and multi-point locks on impact windows take a beating from salt air and hard use. When a latch won’t seat or a crank fails, the window isn’t sealed, and a window that isn’t sealed isn’t protecting the house. We replace hardware with OEM parts when available and with manufacturer-approved equivalents when the original line is discontinued.
This service matters because the lock on an impact window isn’t just security. It’s the mechanism that keeps the sash tight against the weatherstripping and the frame tight against the wind load. If the hardware is failing, call (850) 801-5596 and we’ll come look at it. Most hardware repairs are done in one visit.

Brands We Service for Impact Windows
PGT impact windows are the most common line we see in Palm Beach, and we’ve installed and serviced hundreds of them. Their WinGuard and Estate lines are workhorse products that hold up well in coastal conditions, and TruePane is an authorized installer. We stock their most common replacement parts, know their warranty registration process cold, and can tell you on the spot whether a unit is worth repairing or needs replacement. If you have PGT, you want installer who reads their spec sheets, not someone guessing at anchoring requirements.
CGI and CWS are the two other manufacturers we see regularly along Palm Beach and the Singer Island side of town. CGI’s TDI and Sentinel lines are heavy, code-exceeding units, and CWS builds a laminated window that handles salt air well in mid-rise and single-family applications. We also work extensively with which a lot of Palm Beach homeowners choose for the glass package and the visibility. Whether you have PGT, CGI, CWS, or any other make, we’ll quote it flat, install it true, and register the warranty before we leave the driveway. No manufacturer line gets us a better price and no line changes our recommendation. We quote side by side on paper and you make the call.
One more thing worth saying. A lot of companies in Palm Beach claim to be authorized installers for every brand under the sun. Ask to see the certificate. We’re authorized installers for more than a dozen lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, and we’ll put that in writing before you sign anything.
Signs You Need Impact Windows Right Now
- Your windows fog between the panes. That fog means the seal has failed and the insulating gas has escaped. The window can no longer do its thermal job, and an impact unit with a failed seal won’t perform to its wind rating when the next storm hits. In Palm Beach’s humid climate, a failed seal also invites mold in the frame.
- Your homeowners insurance carrier is asking for wind mitigation. Carriers are tightening requirements on Palm Beach properties every year. If your renewal notice asks for impact glass or shutters and you don’t have them, you’re either paying a surcharge or losing coverage. Impact windows are the permanent fix that ends the annual boarded-up-house ritual.
- Your frames are pitted or corroded. Salt air works on aluminum frames along the coast, especially within a few blocks of the Atlantic. Once the frame loses structural integrity, no glass can fix it. If you see white powder, pitting, or flaking metal on your frames, the clock is running.
- Your windows don’t close flush anymore. When a sash binds or won’t seat, the weatherstripping isn’t sealing. You’re losing cooled air every day, and in a wind event, a window that isn’t closed tight isn’t closed. If you have to fight a window to latch it, it’s time for a service call.
- You’re still boarding up every June. Plywood and hurricane panels work, but they take a Saturday, a ladder, and a second set of hands every time a storm forms east of the Windward Islands. Impact windows are the one-time fix. No boards. No panels. No waiting for a crew to install shutters while the feeder bands are already hitting.
Our Impact Windows Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free on-site measurement and consultation. We walk the property with you, measure every opening twice, and check the rough openings for rot, settling, or structural issues before we talk price. This is where we’ll also tell you honestly if a window can be repaired instead of replaced. Call (850) 801-5596 and we’ll schedule the walk when it works for you.
- 2
Written line-item quote, side by side on paper. We show you the manufacturer lines that fit your openings and your budget, each with a clear price and a clear warranty statement. No allowances for unknown conditions, no open-ended line items, and no conversation where the price changes after the contract is signed. That’s a square deal.
- 3
Removal and inspection of the rough opening. On install day, our uniformed, background-checked technicians remove the existing window and inspect what’s behind it. If we find rot or damage, we stop, show you photos, and write a change order only for what you approve. We never bury bad wood behind new glass and let you discover it in three years.
- 4
Installation and sealing to manufacturer spec. We set the unit to the manufacturer’s anchoring schedule, shim it true, and apply the sealant in a continuous bead that will hold up to Palm Beach heat and salt air. Both warranty layers are registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway.
- 5
Walkthrough and the Done Right Promise. We walk the job with you, show you how the windows operate, clean the job site, and hand you the paperwork. Then the Done Right Promise starts. If anything isn’t done right, we make it right, no fine print. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
How Much Does Impact Windows Cost in Palm Beach?
A single impact window in Palm Beach most often runs $1,100 to $2,400 for a standard opening, with larger openings like sliders, picture windows, and French door conversions running $2,500 to $3,400 or more. Frame material and size drive most of that spread. Aluminum is the most common frame in Palm Beach and costs less upfront, but a high-performance aluminum frame from PGT or CGI will hold up better to salt air than the builder-grade frame installed twenty years ago. Vinyl runs a bit less, but fewer Palm Beach homes suit it structurally.
What affects the price: the size of the opening, the manufacturer line, the glass package (low-E coatings, tint, noise reduction), the existing frame’s condition, and whether the house is single-story or elevated. What should not affect the price: the salesperson’s mood, how busy the season is, and whether you “seem like you can afford it.” We quote flat, and the quote matches the bill.
How to avoid overpaying: get a written quote, on paper, with line items. Ask if both warranty layers get registered and get that in writing. Ask if the installer checks the rough opening. Ask if the crew is background-checked. And always ask if the company will be in town in ten years to honor the warranty. We will. Call (850) 801-5596 for a free, no-obligation estimate, and the number we quote you is the number you’ll pay.

Frequently Asked Questions - Impact Windows in Palm Beach
Impact windows are laminated glass units with a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ionoplast interlayer bonded between two panes of glass, set in a reinforced frame, designed to survive wind-borne debris and pressure cycling in a hurricane. When debris hits the outer pane, the glass may crack, but the interlayer holds the unit together and keeps the wind and rain outside the house. In Palm Beach, impact windows must meet Miami-Dade County standards or Florida Building Code requirements, which are among the most stringent in the country.
Most single-family Palm Beach homes are completed in two to four working days, depending on the number of openings and what we find behind the existing frames. A full-home retrofit of twelve to fifteen windows usually installs in a week or less, with most of that time spent on proper sealing and waterproofing rather than rushing the daylight hours. We’ll give you a completion date in writing before we start, and we’ll be there when we say.
A single impact window replacement in Palm Beach runs $1,100 to $2,400 for a standard opening, with large openings like sliders and fixed picture windows running $2,500 to $3,400 or more. Full-home retrofits on a typical Palm Beach two-story run $18,000 to $42,000. The best way to get an exact number is to call (850) 801-5596 and schedule a free on-site measurement, and you’ll get a written line-item quote with no surprises later.
