Fast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Palm Beach
Custom window and door work on the island of Palm Beach runs anywhere from $1,800 for a single arched casement restoration to $85,000+ for a full estate replacement with impact-rated bronze or marine-grade stainless frames. The honest answer on timing: ARCOM review adds two to six weeks to any exterior change on a contributing property, and we factor that into the schedule before we ever measure the first opening. Our crews work Palm Beach weekly, from the estates off South Ocean Boulevard to the newer builds near the Palm Beach Country Club, and we know which elevations take the worst of the Atlantic salt. Call (561) 349-4826 and you’ll get a live person, not a phone tree.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company
We’ve been doing custom window and door work on this island long enough to know that the house on the ocean side of South County Road weathers differently than the house on the lake side, and we bid accordingly. Palm Beach homeowners don’t call us because we’re the cheapest. They call because we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, because our technicians measure every opening twice, and because when something goes wrong we make it right under the Done Right Promise without a paperwork fight.
Dale Kessler founded this company on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard matters more here than almost anywhere else in the county, because Palm Beach’s ARCOM board will reject work that is not spec-perfect on the façade, and a voided warranty on an impact window this close to the ocean is a five-figure mistake. We’ve sat through enough ARCOM hearings to know exactly what the board looks for in frame depth, muntin profile, and color match on Mizner-era contributing structures. That local knowledge is the difference between approval in one pass and a permit that stalls for months.
Background-checked, uniformed technicians show up when we say they will. We stock local parts and work directly with more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Andersen, Pella, and Marvin. And our Custom Windows & Doors team has spent years building a reputation on this island for quoting honestly and standing behind the work. When a Palm Beach client calls with a post-install question, they get the same person who measured the job, not a call center.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Palm Beach
Palm Beach is not a tract-home market. The openings are arched, the profiles are historic, and the wind loads are the highest Miami-Dade ratings in the county. Our four most requested services on the island reflect that reality.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Simulated divided lites are the difference between an impact window that disappears into a 1928 Mediterranean Revival façade and one that announces itself from the street like a vinyl billboard. We match original muntin profiles, often pulling the property’s archived drawings from the Town’s historic archive before we specify anything. For landmarked estates along South Ocean Boulevard and Worth Avenue, we fabricate SDL grids that replicate the original steel-casement sightlines down to the eighth of an inch, then pair them with impact-rated laminated glass that ARCOM accepts on the first submittal. Palm Beach runs $40 to $85 per square foot for the SDL work alone, depending on profile depth and finish.

Custom Shape Windows
Arched, radius, eyebrow, and oval openings are standard on Mizner-era homes, and every one of them has to carry the same Miami-Dade NOA rating as a square window. That means custom fabrication, which most mass-market window companies will not touch. We measure each opening twice, spec the frame depth to the Town’s architectural guidelines, and build the unit to match the original profile within a tolerance that will pass an ARCOM inspection. A single custom arched window on the island typically runs $2,800 to $6,500, installed.

Oversized Glass Panels
Modern spec mansions north of the Palm Beach Country Club lean on floor-to-ceiling glass walls and ten-foot sliders, and those panels weigh more than most crews are equipped to handle. We bring the right rigging, the right seals, and the right impact-rated laminated glass for openings that face the Atlantic and the Intracoastal both. Oversized panel replacement in Palm Beach generally starts around $4,200 for a single fixed lite and goes up from there based on square footage and lift complexity. The coastal spec here is non-negotiable: bronze or marine-grade stainless hardware, nothing less.

Commercial Storefront Glazing
Worth Avenue retail, art galleries on Via Mizner, and the boutique hotel storefronts off Royal Palm Way all fall under the same ARCOM design review as the estates. We’ve replaced storefront systems on contributing commercial buildings where the board required a profile match to the original 1930s bronze framing, and we’ve done it without a single permit rejection. Commercial storefront glazing on the island runs $65 to $120 per square foot for impact-rated systems, and we pull the permits, pass the inspections, and register the warranties before the job closes out.
We also handle curtain wall systems on newer Palm Beach condominiums and mid-rises east of South County Road, where the engineering loads and salt corrosion demand marine-grade everything. Curtain wall work here starts around $150 per square foot and requires structural review; we coordinate the engineering in-house so the client never has to chase a third-party stamp.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and on this island we lean heavily on the ones that hold up to salt air. Andersen, Pella, and Marvin make up the bulk of our Palm Beach residential work, because their impact-rated lines offer the frame depth and finish options ARCOM will actually approve on a contributing property. We stock local parts for these lines and can turn around warranty service or tune-ups without waiting on a parts shipment from out of state. The maintenance check catches weep failures and hardware corrosion before they become rebuilds, and we recommend it to every Palm Beach client with ocean-facing elevations.
Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Salt-eaten aluminum frames and hardware. Standard aluminum frames within a block of the Atlantic show pitting and white corrosion within three to five years. Weep systems clog with salt scale, water backs up into the track, and the frame starts to fail at the corners. The fix is marine-grade aluminum or stainless, not a thicker coat of paint.
- ARCOM permit rejections on standard impact sliders. Homeowners buy a white vinyl impact slider thinking they’ve done the right thing, and the Town rejects the application because the muntin profile is visibly wrong for a contributing Mediterranean Revival façade. Then they rip it out and come to us to re-spec something that passes. We’ve seen this happen enough times that we pull the archived drawings before we quote.
- Arched window head leaks during hurricane-driven rain. The shallow eaves on Mizner-era roofs send wind-driven rain straight into an improperly flashed arched opening. Water pools at the head, wicks into the plaster, and you get mold inside the wall cavity within a season. We see this on South Ocean and Lake Trail properties regularly, and the fix is a full re-flash with a custom head pan, not caulk.
- Failed insulated glass units from humidity and salt micro-abrasion. Fogged or milky IGUs are common here because the sealant flexes under constant salt and humidity cycling. Once the desiccant is saturated, the unit fails and you cannot reverse it. The replacement glass has to be impact-rated laminated with a marine-grade spacer, or you’ll be back in five years.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Yes, and it changes both. ARCOM reviews every exterior window and door change on landmark and contributing structures, and the board will deny a permit if the frame depth or muntin profile visibly alters the façade character. You need a frame that sits at the same depth as the original and an SDL grid that matches the historic sightlines. We pull the Town’s archived drawings and match profiles before we specify, which is why our ARCOM submittals pass on the first round. Call (561) 349-4826 if you’d like us to look at your property before you start the permit process.
Because Palm Beach is a true Atlantic barrier island with direct salt spray on both the ocean and Intracoastal exposures. The airborne salt load is measurably higher than a mile inland, and it attacks standard aluminum hardware and frames through electrolysis and pitting within three to five years. Bronze and marine-grade stainless resist that. The material cost is higher, but it is cheaper than replacing rotted hardware mid-life. We quote both options so you can see the difference on paper.
We custom-fabricate an impact-rated window that matches the original arched profile and muntin dimensions, using a marine-grade frame with an SDL grid that replicates the historic sightlines. For contributing properties, we submit the spec with the archived drawings attached so ARCOM sees exactly how the replacement matches. The window meets the highest Miami-Dade NOA ratings and the Town’s design review, and it is backed by both warranty layers in writing. Call (561) 349-4826 and we’ll walk you through the exact process for your house.
No, and we won’t even quote it. ARCOM will reject a standard white vinyl impact slider on a contributing Mediterranean Revival property because the frame depth and muntin profile are visibly wrong for the façade. We’ve seen homeowners buy those units first and then tear them out after the permit denial. On this island the right answer starts with the Town’s archived drawings and a custom spec, not a stock unit off the shelf.
You’ll see fogging or a milky haze between the panes that you cannot clean off, and it comes from sealant failure that lets Palm Beach’s humid, salt-laden air inside the unit. Once the desiccant saturates, the glass is done. The replacement IGU must be impact-rated laminated with a marine-grade spacer or it fails again in five years. Call (561) 349-4826 and we’ll send a technician to confirm the failure and quote the right replacement.
We just pulled a 1929 Mizner original steel casement from a landmarked estate on South Ocean Boulevard, and the salt had eaten through the bottom rail so badly the sash was hanging by the hinge pins. We measured the original muntin profile from the Town’s archived drawings, then specified an impact-rated custom casement with a bronze-finished marine-grade stainless frame and a matching SDL grid. ARCOM approved it in one pass, and the client’s wind mitigation report dropped their premium 38 percent. That is the standard we bring to every Palm Beach job, because on this island the wrong spec costs more than money. It costs the house’s character, and it costs your time in front of a design board. Call (561) 349-4826 for a free estimate, and we’ll bring the right spec to your door, in writing, before you spend a dollar.
