Why Westgate Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Westgate is the kind of place where word travels block by block. Homeowners here tend to have owned their CBS homes for decades, and they remember which contractor left them with a fogged seal or a door that never quite latched after the first storm season. When Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008, he had already spent years as a second-generation glazier watching out-of-true installs void manufacturer warranties. That’s why every job we do carries The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. We also back every install with our Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no fine print that covers neither. We serve homeowners near Seminole Manor and the neighborhoods off Haverhill Road with the same crew standards on every visit: background-checked, uniformed technicians who measure every opening twice.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Westgate
Window Installation
We install new-construction and full-frame replacement windows sized to Westgate’s 1950s and 1960s CBS block openings. Every install includes registration of both warranty layers and a written quote showing the product line and glass package you’re actually paying for.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Westgate.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, side doors, and exterior doors need to keep water out and stay square through Palm Beach County’s wet season. We install wood, fiberglass, and steel doors, and we flag any opening that will require an impact-rated door under Westgate’s wind-borne debris requirements.

Window Replacement
Most Westgate homes still have original aluminum sliders or jalousie windows, and corrosion is the usual reason they fail. We do complete tear-out replacement, not insert retrofits that hide rot and leave the old frame doing the structural work.

Impact Windows & Doors
Westgate sits inside Palm Beach County’s Wind-Borne Debris Region, which means replacement openings must meet Florida Product Approval standards. We install PGT and CGI impact lines plus custom laminates, and we quote the approved product number so you can verify it on the state database before we order.
Every structural opening in Westgate is governed by the same code. We’ll tell you which openings need impact glass and which can use standard glass with an approved shutter system. A written quote shows both options side by side when code allows it.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E coatings and insulated glass units make a real difference on a 1,200-square-foot CBS home with original single-pane sliders. We quote glass packages by the numbers: solar heat gain coefficient and U-factor for your specific orientation, not a vague “efficient” label.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Older Westgate sliders ride on aluminum tracks that corrode from decades of humidity and salt air. We replace them with impact-rated or standard sliders, French doors, or patio doors sized to the existing opening, and we correct the wall flashing before the new frame goes in.
Glass Railing Systems
For patios, porches, and pool enclosures, we install code-compliant tempered glass railing with aluminum or stainless hardware. Measurements are taken after the concrete or tile is finished, not before, so the glass fits the actual opening.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd opening sizes are the rule in older Westgate homes, not the exception. We order custom-sized units from ES Windows, PGT, and other manufacturers and verify the Florida Product Approval on every custom opening before it ships.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Westgate
We work throughout Westgate on a regular rotation. When you call, we’ll schedule a measured estimate at a time that fits your day.

Why Westgate’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Westgate is an unincorporated Palm Beach County community packed with 1,000 to 1,500 square foot single-story CBS block homes built from the 1950s through the mid-1970s. What that means for windows and doors is specific and unavoidable. Many of these homes still carry original jalousie windows, the louvered glass panels that were standard on South Florida tract homes sixty years ago. A jalousie window provides zero wind-borne debris protection, cannot be brought into compliance with hardware upgrades, and must be fully replaced with an impact-rated unit to pass a Palm Beach County permit inspection. We see this on nearly every street in Westgate: a homeowner calls about one fogged jalousie pane and learns that no retrofit exists for the opening.
Because Westgate has no municipal building department, every replacement window and door permit runs through the Palm Beach County Building Division. That office enforces the Wind-Borne Debris Region requirements under the Florida Building Code on every opening. In practical terms, that means a full-frame impact-rated replacement is the standard job here, not the exception. Original aluminum slider frames corrode fast in the humidity and salt air, and galvanic corrosion where aluminum meets steel fasteners shortens a frame’s life compared to drier climates. We plan every job around those two realities: county permits and full tear-out work.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Westgate
A single Impact Windows & Doors in Westgate installation typically costs $900 to $1,800, with the final number depending on the opening size and the product line you choose. Jalousie replacements and full-frame tear-outs run higher because the rough opening must be modified and the Florida Product Approval verified through the Palm Beach County Building Division. Call (561) 349-4826 for a written quote on your specific openings. Estimates are free.
Yes, for most replacement openings. Westgate sits inside Palm Beach County’s Wind-Borne Debris Region under the Florida Building Code, which requires Energy-Efficient Windows in Westgate and exterior doors to meet impact-resistance standards or be paired with an approved secondary protection system. We’ll tell you which openings must carry an impact rating and whether shutters would satisfy code on any opening where impact glass is optional.
Yes, and it’s the most common job we do in Westgate. Jalousie windows cannot be made compliant with wind-borne debris standards, so the opening gets a full-frame replacement with Sliding & Patio Doors in Westgate or an impact-rated window sized to the existing block opening. We handle the county permit, the product approval documentation, and the stucco repair around the new frame.
No. We quote fixed prices with no change orders, and the number on your written estimate is the number on the bill. The only exception is if we open a wall and find damage that could not have been seen before tear-out, and in that case we stop, show you the condition, and get your written approval before any additional work proceeds. Call (561) 349-4826 for a quote that holds.
Most Westgate homes range from 1,000 to 1,500 square feet with 8 to 14 openings, and that scope with Glass Railing Systems in Westgate or windows usually takes two to four working days on site. Permitting through the Palm Beach County Building Division adds lead time before the install date, so we file the permit as soon as you sign the contract. Custom-size orders from PGT, CGI, or ES Windows add a few weeks of manufacturing lead time.

What Westgate Customers Say
"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."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."Eleven windows replaced in two days. The crew chief, Marcus, showed me the level on every single frame before they caulked it. My wife noticed the street noise was gone before I did."
- Ronald P.
