We know what opening up an Ocean Ridge home actually turns up. Original jalousie frames corroded into concrete block. Rotten king studs behind oceanfront sliders. Undersized jambs that never should have carried glass. We’ve been doing this work long enough that none of it surprises us anymore, and we write our contracts accordingly. Inspection first. Allowances in writing. Every change priced and approved before we touch the opening.

Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Ocean Ridge’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company

Ocean Ridge is a small town. Not many streets, not many homes, but every one of them sits inside a salt-air corridor that punishes anything less than marine-grade work. We’ve set custom windows in homes along Tropical Drive, Bermuda Lane, and the oceanfront side of Old Ocean Boulevard, and the failure patterns are consistent: pitted aluminum frames, seized hardware, fogged seals where impact glass met an undersized jamb. That repetition is exactly what makes our quoting process accurate. We’re not guessing when we price an Ocean Ridge job.

TruePane is led by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier who started this company in 2008 because he was tired of watching out-of-true installs void manufacturer warranties. The standard on every Ocean Ridge job is the same: both warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, and a Done Right Promise that covers the workmanship with no paperwork fights. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s the rule on the whiteboard and the baseline for every callback.

Scheduling and dispatch are coordinated from our South Florida office, and crews serving Ocean Ridge are local, background-checked, and uniformed. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, not a voicemail tree. If you call (754) 339-0784 about a custom window or door on the east side of SR A1A, you’ll speak to a person who can schedule the estimate.

Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Ocean Ridge

Custom Shape Windows

Ocean Ridge’s renovated estates lean into arched transoms, radius-top picture windows, and trapezoid fills above sliders, and none of those shapes come off a shelf. We measure every opening twice, order from manufacturers who can hold the exact radius and sightline, and frame the rough opening to the opening’s actual structural load, not the nearest stock size. Prices for true custom shapes in Ocean Ridge run $1,400-$4,800 per unit, depending on whether the shape is a simple radius or a compound curve with impact glazing.

Oversized Glass Panels

Oceanfront living means big glass, and Palm Beach County wind loads don’t care how pretty the view is. An oversized panel on an oceanfront Ocean Ridge elevation, anything over 12 feet in any dimension, needs engineering for design pressure, not just a bigger frame. We quote these jobs with the structural calcs included. Expect $6,000-$18,000 per oversized panel when impact-rated laminated glass, reinforced frames, and marine hardware are all in play.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs

Simulated divided lites, or SDLs, give a custom window the look of true divided light without sacrificing the insulating performance or impact rating of a single large lite. On Ocean Ridge’s mid-century ranches, we’re often matching the original 4-over-1 or 6-over-1 pattern from photographs, because the originals were jalousies or single-pane sliders that rotted out decades ago. Grille packages add $180-$600 per opening, and the SDL bars sit inside the insulated glass unit, which keeps them from corroding in salt air the way exterior muntins do.

For commercial work along Ocean Avenue or a storefront facing the Intracoastal, our Custom Windows & Doors team handles curtain wall systems and storefront glazing with the same marine-grade discipline. Curtain wall on a coastal Ocean Ridge commercial building runs $85-$180 per square foot installed, and we coordinate with the building department on wind-borne debris documentation before the first lite goes in.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ocean Ridge

We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Ocean Ridge homeowners we typically quote side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying. Each line has different strengths for salt-air exposure, impact ratings, and custom shape capability, and we’d rather you see the numbers than take our word for it. If you’ve got existing Andersen or Jeld-Wen units in an Ocean Ridge home and need service, hardware, or a seal replacement, we stock common parts locally and can turn most non-custom repairs around in under a week.

Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Ocean Ridge Homes

• Salt-pitted jalousie frames that seize in the jamb. The original louvered windows on Ocean Ridge’s 1950s-1970s concrete-block ranches were never designed for corrosive ocean air. After 40 or 50 years, the aluminum channels pit, the sashes bind, and the only honest fix is cutting them out and reframing for impact-rated fixed or casement windows.
• Failed perimeter flashing on oceanfront exposures. Wind-driven rain gets behind the flashing tape on the east side of SR A1A, saturates the rough opening, and rots the framing. By the time you see the water stain on the drywall, the king stud is usually gone and needs replacement before any new window can be set.
• Fogged seals from impact glass set into undersized original jambs. An impact-rated insulated glass unit is heavier than the single-pane it replaces. When it’s dropped into a jamb that was framed for a lightweight slider, the frame flexes, the seal fails within a season or two, and fog between the panes tells you the argon fill is gone.
• Hardware that pits and locks that stop latching. Standard zinc or painted hardware on Ocean Ridge doors and windows corrodes fast in salt spray. We spec stainless hardware on every oceanfront and Intracoastal-facing job, and we quote it as a line item so you know what you’re paying for.

How We Handle What’s Behind the Wall When We Open an Ocean Ridge Home

Here’s the information most window companies won’t give you upfront. Ocean Ridge’s original jalousie windows, the louvered glass slats that came standard on the post-war ranch homes this town was built on, cannot be made impact-compliant under any retrofit. You cannot swap the glass. You cannot add film. The louvers themselves are the structural problem, and Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris code plus insurance underwriters flag them immediately when a renovation permit is pulled. So a permit that starts as “replace the window” becomes a full custom window replacement order, often for the entire elevation. Inland neighbors in Boynton Beach with standard sliders don’t face this trigger. Ocean Ridge homeowners do, on nearly every house built before 1980.

When we open a wall, here’s what we do. On a 1960s concrete-block ranch on Tropical Drive, our crew opened the walls to find original jalousie frames embedded in corroded aluminum channels and a rotten king stud behind the oceanfront slider. We had written a $2,400 framing allowance into the contract before demo, so the discovery didn’t stall the job or trigger a surprise change order. After inspection, we installed a full package of Andersen impact-rated casement and picture windows with fusion-welded frames, stainless hardware, and marine-grade flashing tape, and we upgraded the entire order to low-E glass with argon fill before we touched the opening. Every one of those changes was priced and approved in writing first. That’s how we run every Ocean Ridge job.

The inspection comes first, always. We open the wall, document what’s actually there, and bring you a line-item scope with allowances already written in. If the worst-case scenario doesn’t materialize, you don’t pay the allowance. If it does, the number’s already in the contract and you approve any change in writing before we proceed. That’s not a sales pitch. It’s how we keep a renovation moving without the bill spiraling.
