AfterWindows & Doors Services in Boca Raton, FL
Windows and doors in Boca Raton carry a heavier load than they do almost anywhere else in Florida. Salt air off the Atlantic eats aluminum frames, HOA architectural boards dictate what you can install, and insurers keep tightening wind-mitigation requirements. TruePane Windows & Doors handles the whole scope: impact-rated replacement, custom fabrication, retrofits for original Arvida-built homes, and the paperwork trail that makes coverage actually stick. If you call (888) 635-0804, a live person answers. We’ll talk through what your house needs and what your HOA will approve before anyone measures an opening.

Why Boca Raton Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Most of our Boca Raton calls come from homeowners in gated communities like Boca West, Broken Sound, Woodfield Country Club, and St. Andrews. These are houses built by Arvida from the late 1950s through the mid-1980s, and many still have their original aluminum single-pane windows and single-track sliders. Those frames were never designed for today’s wind-load code, and coastal salt has been working on them for forty-plus years. Homeowners call us because they want a company that understands both sides of the problem: the structural engineering and the HOA approval process. Dale Kessler founded TruePane on a rule he still keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard has held across every install we’ve done in Palm Beach County.
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. When we quote, you get those lines side by side on paper, with both warranty layers registered in writing before our truck leaves the driveway. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. Every job carries our Done Right Promise: if something is not right, we make it right, with no paperwork fights and no arguing. We also offer a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, which applies to a good portion of Boca Raton’s homeowner base.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Boca Raton
Window Installation
We install new-construction and retrofit windows across Boca Raton, from single openings to full-home replacements. Every unit gets measured twice and set plumb, square, and true before trim goes back on. Learn more about our Window Installation in Boca Raton.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, French doors, and sidelight packages change how a Boca Raton home meets the street. We set doors level and square so they close clean in January and don’t bind in July humidity. Learn more about our Door Installation in Boca Raton.
Window Replacement
For the Arvida-era aluminum frames that dominate ZIP codes like 33433 and 33434, replacement is usually cheaper long-term than repeated repairs. We pull the old frame, set the new one to modern wind-load specs, and register the warranty before we leave. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Boca Raton.
Impact Windows & Doors
This is the flagship line for Boca Raton. Laminated impact glass, Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Product Approval per configuration, HVHZ compliance where the wind zone requires it, and design pressures matched to each opening, never a rating above +/-100. Impact units protect your house on the day of the storm and satisfy your insurer the other 364 days.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E coated glass and insulated frames cut cooling costs meaningfully in Boca Raton’s ten-month cooling season. Homeowners typically see a 20-30% reduction in cooling load after replacing single-pane aluminum with modern insulated units.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Boca Raton’s ranch homes and country-club estates lean heavily on sliding glass where other regions use French doors. We replace corroded single-track sliders with impact-rated units that roll clean and seal tight against both rain and dehumidified indoor air.
Glass Railing Systems
For second-story terraces, pool enclosures, and interior stairways, frameless glass railings keep sightlines open while meeting Palm Beach County code. We fabricate and install custom railings in Boca Raton and neighboring coastal communities.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd arched openings, non-standard lites, and architectural shapes from Boca’s Mediterranean Revival-era stock need units built to measure. We handle custom fabrication through manufacturers like ECO Window Systems and ViewLux, with lead times running 4-6 weeks once your order is confirmed.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Boca Raton
We work throughout Boca Raton’s ZIP codes: 33487, 33496, 33498, and 33428, plus the Arvida-heavy corridors around 33433, 33434, and 33486. Typical response time for an estimate visit is one to two business days once we have your HOA’s architectural application in hand.
- Boca West - large gated community with original Arvida sliders and strict Architectural Review Committee specs.
- Broken Sound - country-club homes where frame color and grille pattern must match existing plat standards.
- Woodfield Country Club - high proportion of impact-glass retrofits driven by insurer mandates.
- St. Andrews - original aluminum frames aging past useful life, frequently replaced full-scope.
- Mizner Park area - condo and townhome units with shared-wall window replacements.
Why Boca Raton’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Boca Raton sits in Palm Beach County’s coastal high-wind zone, with design wind speeds around 150 mph. That effectively mandates impact-rated glazing under the current Florida Building Code, and private insurers exiting the state have made it an underwriting condition anyway. Citizens Property Insurance has been pushing coastal Palm Beach County homeowners toward impact-glass upgrades as a condition of continued coverage. Meanwhile, the Atlantic salt air, far more concentrated here than twenty miles inland, corrodes standard aluminum frames and hardware at a rate that makes repairing any frame older than 15-20 years a poor investment. When a customer in Boca West or Broken Sound asks us to patch a corroded slider, we usually end up quoting a full replacement instead, because the repair would cost more than the remaining life of the frame.
Then there’s the Arvida factor. Boca Raton’s enormous stock of 1970s and 1980s planned communities, concentrated in 33433, 33434, and 33486, came with original single-pane aluminum-frame windows and single-track sliding glass doors. Those units are now simultaneously corroding from salt exposure and failing Palm Beach County’s post-Hurricane Andrew wind-load code requirements. With insurers tightening and homeowner equity high, Boca is executing one of the fastest full-home impact window and door replacement cycles in South Florida. This is a replacement market, not a repair market, and homeowners here understand that a full-scope impact retrofit adds more resale value than any interior renovation they could do for the same money.
Boca Raton’s dozens of HOA-governed gated communities add a layer most contractors in Boynton Beach or Deerfield Beach never face. Each community’s Architectural Review Committee must pre-approve any exterior window or door replacement, specifying exact frame color, glass tint level, and grille pattern before a building permit can be submitted to the city. That adds three to six weeks of lead time on every project. Companies that do not plan for it leave homeowners standing in front of an HOA board with nothing but a contractor’s word. We prepare the ARC package with you, so the specs match what the board will actually sign off on.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Boca Raton
Window and door pricing in Boca Raton runs higher than inland Palm Beach County because of the wind zone, the HOA specs, and the prevalence of custom shapes. Full-home impact replacement in Boca’s gated communities typically lands between $1,200 and $2,800 per opening, depending on manufacturer line, glass package, and frame complexity. A standard 6-by-8 impact-rated slider runs roughly $4,500 to $8,500 installed. Custom arched or radius windows with impact glass start around $2,500 and go up from there. Entry door replacement, depending on whether you’re buying Therma-Tru or a custom wood line, runs $3,000 to $9,000. Every quote we write is line-item, fixed, and reviewed with you on paper before we order a single unit. We do not do change orders, and we do not surprise anyone on the final bill.
We also offer a free written repair estimate and a maintenance check for homeowners who want their existing windows and doors checked before hurricane season. Ask about both when you call.
Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters: The Comparison Boca Homeowners Keep Making
Shutters and panels protect a house only when somebody is home and thinking clearly enough to hang them before a storm. They require storage, and they fail when the wind is already up and the power is out. Impact windows and doors are always in place, always protecting, with no panels to haul out of the garage. For a homeowner in Boca Raton who intends to stay in the house for another ten or twenty years, impact glass also carries an insurance benefit shutters do not: windstorm-premium credits. After a wind-mitigation inspection, many carriers reduce the windstorm portion of the premium by roughly 25% when impact-rated openings are installed and documented. Shutters do not typically earn the same credit, because the underwriting risk still depends on whether the shutters get deployed.
There’s also the big-box retail comparison. A homeowner can buy a vinyl-framed impact window from a home center and have a subcontractor drop it in. What they do not get is an installer who understands Miami-Dade NOA documentation, HVHZ compliance, ARC submission packages, or the difference between a design pressure rating of +/-85 and +/-100 for a specific opening height. We are an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, ES Windows, Mr-Glass, and more than a dozen other lines, and we register both warranty layers in writing before we leave the driveway. The box store registers nothing and stands behind nothing once the install crew drives away.
Florida Pays Boca Raton Homeowners Back
The incentive stack for impact-rated replacement in Boca Raton is real, and a surprising number of homeowners never claim it. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants of up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows and doors, subject to program funding and eligibility. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from state sales tax, which on a $60,000 full-home replacement saves real money at the point of sale. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost on qualifying energy-efficient units, up to $600 per year. And after a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs $75 to $150 and takes about an hour, many carriers apply a windstorm-premium credit averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of the policy. We cannot guarantee program numbers or what your carrier will approve, but we document everything so nothing is left on the table.
The Keystone Standard is how we handle paperwork. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing, and the durations are stated on your invoice before our truck leaves your driveway. Your Done Right Promise covers workmanship in plain language. If something is not done right, we make it right.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Boca Raton
Full-home impact window and door replacement in Boca Raton typically runs $1,200 to $2,800 per opening, with custom shapes and higher-end manufacturer lines pushing the number upward. The wind zone, HOA specs, and prevalence of custom arched openings in Arvida-built communities all factor in. Call (888) 635-0804 for a line-item quote written for your specific house, not a square-footage estimate.
Each of Boca Raton’s gated communities operates its own Architectural Review Committee with its own form, review cycle, and specification sheet covering frame color, tint level, and grille pattern. Approval must happen before the city will accept a permit application, and the process typically adds three to six weeks. TruePane prepares the ARC package alongside your quote, so the specs match what the board will sign.
In most cases, yes, once you complete a wind-mitigation inspection and submit the documentation to your carrier. Many insurers credit roughly 25% on the windstorm portion of the premium for impact-rated openings, but the final number depends on your carrier and policy. We document every NOA and product approval so your mitigation report reflects what was actually installed.
Yes. ThThe single-pane aluminum windows and sliders in Boca Raton’s Arvida communities from the 1970s and 1980s are being replaced every day, and manufacturers make impact-rated units that match those architectural lines. Whether you need a specific grille pattern, a custom radius, or a frame color that passes ARC review, we quote the exact configuration from manufacturers like ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, and ViewLux. Call (888) 635-0804 for a free estimate on your specific openings.
Yes. Every exterior window and door replacement in Boca Raton requires a city permit, and your HOA approval must precede the permit application. We pull permits, manage inspections, and close out the permit before final payment. No open permits left behind, no shortcuts.
Custom-fabricated units run four to six weeks from order confirmation, and installation can move as fast as a single day once your units arrive on site. The HOA review and permit process is usually the longer lead time. We schedule around both so you are not left with torn-out openings.

What Boca Raton Customers Say
"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."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."Two entry doors. Showed up when they said, second day was a half day like they said, and the painter they recommended confirmed the frames were dead plumb. The financing was explained in actual dollars, not a brochure."
- Janet R.
