AfterTrusted Custom Windows & Doors for Wellington Homeowners
Custom windows and doors in Wellington, FL are not a one-size-fits-all purchase. They are built to the opening, to the house, and to the way a homeowner actually lives in the space. When a standard-size unit leaves a gap, a draft, or a view that does not fit the room, a custom unit built to the exact measurements solves the problem the first time. TruePane Windows & Doors has installed and replaced custom windows and doors for Wellington homeowners since 2008, led by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, every day, at (561) 349-4826.
What a homeowner gets with TruePane is a written quote that shows both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That is The Keystone Standard, and it is backed by a Done Right Promise. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
What Our Custom Windows & Doors Service Includes
Wellington homes range from original 1970s ranches in the Landings to newer construction in Olympia and Palm Beach Point. Each era of construction has its own opening sizes, trim depths, and glass exposure. A custom unit is not a catalog number. It is a window or door built to the exact rough opening, the exact glass package, and the exact architectural style of the house. That is what this service covers.
Custom Shape Windows
A half-round over a front entry, an octagonal accent in a stairwell, an eyebrow arch over a patio door. These are openings that no stock window ever fits. TruePane orders Custom Shape Windows cut to the exact radius and frame depth of the opening, then sets them square and true. We have replaced arched windows in Wellington club communities where the original builder had long since stopped ordering that profile. The homeowner gets a unit that matches the architecture instead of a rectangular retrofit that looks like a patch.
Commercial Storefront Glazing
Storefront glass in Wellington takes daily sun load and the occasional cart strike or storm-driven branch. When a pane cracks or a door frame twists, the opening stays vulnerable until it is reglazed properly. TruePane crews install and replace Commercial Storefront Glazing for storefronts, offices, and community buildings across Wellington, West Palm Beach, and Lake Worth Beach. We measure the extrusion, match the glass thickness and tint, and get the tenant back open with a straight sightline and a door that closes without dragging.
Curtain Wall Systems
A curtain wall is the non-structural glass face of a building: floor-to-ceiling aluminum framing with glass infill, common on newer commercial buildings and a few high-end residential additions in Wellington. The system has to be engineered to carry wind load and thermal movement without leaking at the mullions. TruePane installs and services Curtain Wall Systems with attention to the gaskets, the weep holes, and the glazing pockets. A curtain wall that was never set to tolerance will leak, and a leak that hides inside an aluminum raceway does damage for years before anyone sees it.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Simulated divided lites, or SDLs, put a colonial or prairie grille pattern on the glass while keeping the insulating glass unit intact. They are specified for a lot of Wellington’s newer Mediterranean and coastal-style homes, where a full divided-light window would cost twice as much and perform worse. TruePane orders Architectural Grilles & SDLs to match the existing pattern on the house, whether it is a 5/8-inch flat bar on the interior or a 1-inch sculpted profile applied to both sides of the glass. The pattern lines up across the sash and the frame, because if the lites do not align, the window looks wrong every time the homeowner walks past it.
Oversized Glass Panels
Wellington has plenty of homes with a wall of glass facing a lake or a preserve. An oversized panel is any unit that exceeds what a standard manufacturer will ship: picture windows over 60 square feet, patio doors wider than 12 feet, and glass walls that call for a crane or a four-man crew. TruePane has installed oversized glass panels in Wellington with laminated glass for impact resistance and low-E coatings for afternoon sun on west-facing elevations. The glass weight alone demands a real framing plan, which is why we measure the opening twice and verify the header and sill before ordering the unit.

Brands We Service for Custom Windows & Doors
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and that matters when a window goes custom. An authorized installer has access to the manufacturer’s engineering drawings, replacement hardware, and the full warranty program. A contractor who is not authorized can hang the window, but they cannot register the warranty in the homeowner’s name. That leaves a person holding a receipt and a voided warranty.
We quote Andersen and Marvin custom units side by side on paper for Wellington homeowners, because the two lines feel different in the hand and the budget. Andersen’s A-Series offers custom sizes with a wood interior and a fiberglass exterior; Marvin’s Ultimate line runs similar custom capability with a different hardware feel and glazing selection. For coastal and impact-rated builds, we also work with PGT and CGI lines, which are built in Florida for Florida wind loads. If a homeowner has Pella, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, or any other make in the house, we service it and quote the replacement in writing. We stand behind the work regardless of whose name is on the glass.
Signs You Need Custom Windows & Doors Right Now
- The existing window is leaking around the frame, not just the sash. A bad gasket or a failed sash seal is a repair. Water staining the drywall below the window, soft trim, or a damp smell behind the casing means the frame was never flashed correctly or the rough opening has shifted. In Wellington’s afternoon thunderstorms, a frame leak does not get better with caulk. It needs the unit pulled and reset.
- A patio or French door binds in July and rattles in January. Wellington’s heat and humidity move a slab door on its hinges. If the door sticks at the top latch in summer, the frame has moved out of square. TruePane techs measure the reveal on all four sides before ordering any replacement, because a new door set into an out-of-true opening will bind the same way in six months.
- The glass fogs between the panes. A failed seal on an insulated glass unit lets moisture into the space between the lites, and the etching never clears. The only real fix is new glass or a new sash. We see this regularly in Wellington homes built in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the original seals have reached the end of their service life.
- The room faces west and the afternoon heat pours through the glass. A west-facing wall of glass on a Wellington lake lot can turn a living room into an oven by 3 p.m. The answer is not always a bigger air conditioner. A custom unit with the right low-E coating and a tighter air infiltration rating cuts the solar gain at the glass, where it starts.
- The opening is a shape that no builder-grade window will fill. Arches, trapezoids, circle-tops, and fixed glass in a gable are custom work. A contractor who tries to square off a radius opening with a rectangle leaves a gap that gets packed with trim and hope. The right move is a custom unit cut to the opening and flashed to shed water the way the original design intended.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Process - Step by Step
Custom work lives or dies on the front-end measurements. A factory builds the unit to the numbers we send, so the numbers have to be right the first time. Here is how a TruePane custom window or door job runs in Wellington.
- 1
Measure the opening twice, and verify the structure. One of our background-checked, uniformed technicians measures the rough opening width, height, and depth, then checks the header, the sill, and the jambs for rot, settlement, or out-of-square. A custom unit built to a bad measurement is an expensive mistake, so we do not rush this step.
- 2
Quote the manufacturer lines side by side on paper. The homeowner sees the price, the glass package, the frame material, and the warranty terms for each line before they choose. We do not hide the numbers in a verbal estimate. A square deal means the total is on paper and the line items are explained.
- 3
Order the unit and schedule the install. Custom windows and doors take time to manufacture. We set the schedule when the order is placed and we show up when we say we will, with the unit, the hardware, the flashing, and the crew on the truck.
- 4
Remove the old unit and set the new one square. The old window or door comes out, the opening gets inspected, and the new unit goes in level, plumb, and true. We flash it to shed water, insulate the cavity, and trim the interior clean. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 5
Register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway. The Keystone Standard is not a promise we keep in a brochure. It is a step on the job: the manufacturer warranty gets registered in the homeowner’s name, the workmanship warranty gets stated in writing, and the Done Right Promise covers the install. The paperwork is done before we leave.
How Much Does Custom Windows & Doors Cost in Wellington?
A custom window in Wellington typically runs $800 to $2,500 per opening installed, depending on the size, the shape, the frame material, and the glass package. A custom shape window, like a half-round or an arch, lands on the higher end of that range because the factory cuts the frame and glass to a one-off radius. A custom patio door runs $2,500 to $6,000 installed for a standard custom size, and oversized glass panels with impact-rated glass can run $8,000 to $25,000 or more depending on the glazing and the install access. These are Wellington-market numbers: openings on a lakefront lot with a west-facing exposure usually spec a higher-performance coating, which adds to the glass cost.
What moves the price: the rough opening dimensions, whether impact-rated glass is required, the frame material, the grille pattern, and the access (second story, tight lot lines, or a glass wall that needs a lift). Homeowners avoid overpaying by getting a written, line-item quote that separates the unit cost from the install labor. A free estimate from TruePane includes the measurements, the side-by-side manufacturer options, and the total price in writing before any contract is signed. Call (561) 349-4826 to set one up.

Frequently Asked Questions - Custom Windows & Doors in Wellington
A custom window or door is a unit built to the exact dimensions and specifications of a specific opening, rather than a stock size pulled from a warehouse shelf. Custom work covers non-standard shapes like arches and circle-tops, oversized panels, specific grille patterns, and specific frame depths for older construction. TruePane orders every custom unit from the manufacturer to the measured rough opening, which means the window fits the house instead of the house being made to fit a stock window.
Most custom units in Wellington take four to eight weeks from the day the order is placed to the day the truck pulls up. The lead time is set by the manufacturer’s production schedule, which is why we place the order promptly and do not let a quote sit on a desk unsigned. When the unit arrives, the install itself is usually a one-day job for most single openings. Call (561) 349-4826 for a current lead time on your specific window or door.
A single custom window in Wellington typically runs $800 to $2,500 installed, with custom shapes and impact-rated glass pricing toward the top of that range. A custom patio door starts around $2,500 and climbs with size, glass package, and hardware. Every TruePane quote is a written line-item estimate with the manufacturer lines listed side by side, so the homeowner sees exactly what the money buys.
Yes. TruePane is an authorized installer for, PGT, CGI, and other major lines. Being authorized means we can order custom sizes, register the full manufacturer warranty in the homeowner’s name, and access the right replacement hardware. Whether you have Andersen, Pella, Marvin, or any other make in the house, we service it and quote the replacement in writing.
A broken window or a door that will not close and lock is a security problem, not a scheduling problem. TruePane keeps a live person on the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we get a technician out to secure the opening and take measurements. Custom replacement glass may take time to manufacture after the opening is secured, but the board-up and the assessment happen fast. Call (561) 349-4826 and a person answers.
Every TruePane custom window or door job is covered by two warranty layers. The manufacturer warranty covers the unit and the glass, and it is registered in the homeowner’s name before the truck leaves the driveway. Our workmanship warranty covers the installation, and the Done Right Promise states it plainly: if it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork and no argument.
Clear the area around the opening: move furniture, take down pictures on the shared wall, and clear a path from the door to the work area. If the job is on a second floor, let us know about any access constraints when you schedule so the crew brings the right ladder or lift. Our technicians wear uniforms, use drop cloths, and clean the work area before they leave. We measure every opening twice, and the install is scheduled around your day, not the other way around.
