Fort Lauderdale sits entirely inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. That single fact shapes every window and door conversation we have from Las Olas Boulevard to Coral Ridge, because no non-impact product can legally be permitted here. If you’re holding an insurance non-renewal letter, a fogged jalousie pane, or a sliding door that binds every July, we can walk you through exactly what Impact Windows & Doors in Fort Lauderdale requires by code and what it will cost. Call (850) 303-7739 and a live person answers, 24 hours a day. We send background-checked, uniformed technicians who measure every opening twice and put both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway.

Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Most of the homes we work on in Victoria Park and Colee Hammock were built between 1955 and 1975, when jalousie windows and single-pane aluminum sliders were standard. We still find original units in those neighborhoods. Homeowners call us because the glass rattles, the frames pit from canal air, or their insurer won’t renew the policy until the openings are impact-rated. TruePane was founded by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier, and he built the company around a rule that’s still on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Every install carries the Done Right Promise, and both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before we leave. We’re an authorized installer for CGI, PGT, and ES Windows, among more than a dozen lines, so you can see side-by-side quotes on paper and know exactly what you’re buying.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Fort Lauderdale
Window Installation
Every new window we install in Fort Lauderdale carries a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval number, because Broward County will not permit anything less. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and hand you the paperwork when it passes.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Fort Lauderdale.
Door Installation
Entry doors and patio doors here face the same HVHZ mandate as windows, and we set them with corrosion-resistant hardware that holds up to canal air. A square door that shuts clean in January and July is the standard, not a bonus.
Learn more about our Door Installation in Fort Lauderdale.
Window Replacement
When a 1960s jalousie unit finally gets swapped out, the jump in airtightness and noise reduction is immediate. We walk you through the glass packages, frame materials, and warranty terms before you sign anything.

Impact Windows & Doors
Impact-rated openings are the law in Fort Lauderdale, not an upgrade. Whether you’re replacing one window or every opening, we quote CGI, PGT, and ES Windows side by side so the cost difference is visible on paper.
Call (850) 303-7739 for a free impact window and door estimate.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in Fort Lauderdale with Low-E coatings and argon fills cut the afternoon heat load in Victoria Park and Rio Vista, which means your AC runs less from May through October. The efficiency gain is a byproduct of the impact glass, not a separate upsell.
Call (850) 303-7739 to discuss energy-efficient options.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Three hundred miles of canals means a lot of Fort Lauderdale homes open to water views through Sliding & Patio Doors - Fort Lauderdale specialists replace most often. We use stainless hardware and set the track true so the door glides instead of sticking.
Call (850) 303-7739 to schedule a sliding door assessment.
Glass Railing Systems
For canal-front properties and pool decks, Glass Railing Systems - Fort Lauderdale keeps the sightline open while meeting Florida code. We measure, fabricate, and install the system in one pass, with no second appointment left hanging.
Call (850) 303-7739 for glass railing pricing.
Custom Windows & Doors
When an original mid-century opening is an odd size or a homeowner wants a specific sightline, we work with ES Windows and ECO Window Systems on custom fabrications. The price is quoted upfront, in writing, and the warranty layers are registered before the job closes.
Call (850) 303-7739 to discuss custom window and door work.

Why Fort Lauderdale’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Fort Lauderdale’s housing stock is dominated by concrete block stucco homes built from the 1950s through the 1970s, and a large share of those still carry their original jalousie windows and single-pane aluminum sliders. Those units are not impact-rated, and they are increasingly uninsurable. Broward County private insurers and Citizens have been sending non-renewal letters specifically citing jalousie windows, which means many of our calls start with a homeowner holding a cancellation notice rather than a remodeling budget. Add the salt-laden air that travels inland from the Atlantic and the canal system, and you get aluminum frames that pit and oxide-streak within a few years, along with hardware that seizes. That’s why we quote corrosion-resistant stainless hardware by default here, not as an add-on.

What Fort Lauderdale Customers Say
"A casement crank had stripped and the sash was swollen shut. The technician, Ray, fixed the crank on the spot and only then talked about replacement for the three windows that were genuinely done. That is why the whole street uses them now."
- Eleanor G."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."Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L.
