Frequently Asked Questions - Windows & Doors in Greenacres, FL
Straight answers on pricing, timelines, brands, and what to expect when you replace windows or doors in Greenacres. These are the questions homeowners ask us most, answered by Dale Kessler and the TruePane team.
Pricing & Cost FAQs
Window replacement in Greenacres typically runs $620 to $1,150 per window installed, with most full-home projects landing between $9,000 and $22,000 depending on window count, material, and whether existing frames can be reused. Impact-rated glass, common in Palm Beach County, pushes costs toward the higher end but is often required by code in coastal areas. Vinyl runs lower, aluminum mid-range, and custom lines like ES Windows higher. Every quote here is written, line-item, and fixed before work begins, so the number on the estimate is the number on the final invoice. Call (754) 339-0784 for a free estimate with exact figures for your home.
A new entry door in Greenacres generally costs $1,400 to $4,800 installed, depending on material and glass package. A standard steel door starts near the lower end, fiberglass runs mid-range, and a full custom wood or wrought-iron door with sidelites can exceed $6,000. The big variables are whether the frame needs reworking, whether you choose impact glass, and hardware grade. We show you the manufacturer price sheets side by side so you see exactly what each line costs. Call (754) 339-0784 and we will measure, quote, and hand you a written number with no surprises.
Impact windows in Greenacres run $750 to $1,400 per opening installed, on average. The premium over standard windows comes from the laminated glass and heavier frame engineering required to meet Miami-Dade or Florida Building Code standards. Homes in Lake Worth Beach, Atlantis, and other coastal-adjacent communities often need them for insurance discounts and code compliance. Brands like CWS and ECO Window Systems both offer impact lines we quote regularly. The written estimate separates material, labor, and permit costs so you can see what you are paying for. Call (754) 339-0784 to get your actual numbers.
Sliding glass door replacement in Greenacres typically costs $1,800 to $5,500 installed. A standard two-panel slider runs the lower range, while impact-rated three-panel or pocket sliders with upgraded frames reach the top end. Labor is significant here because the track, threshold, and framing must all be square and true, or the door will bind in summer humidity. We pull permits on every door job and the price includes that line item. For a fixed written quote on your specific opening, call (754) 339-0784.
No. The written estimate we hand you is fixed, and we do not do change orders unless you ask for additional work mid-project. If we find rotted framing behind an old window, we show you the issue, give you the cost to repair it, and wait for your approval before proceeding. No surprises on the bill is part of the Keystone Standard. That means the price you sign off on is the price you pay. Call (754) 339-0784 to schedule your free, fixed-price estimate.
Service & Process FAQs
The process starts with a free in-home estimate. We measure every opening twice, inspect the existing frames, and review your options on paper, side by side. Once you approve the written quote, we order materials, pull permits, and schedule installation. The crew removes old windows, installs and seals the new ones, and cleans up entirely. We register both layers of the warranty before the truck leaves your driveway. From first call to final walkthrough, nothing happens without your knowing the schedule and the cost. Call (754) 339-0784 to get started.
Most window replacement projects in Greenacres take one to two days of installation for a standard single-story home. The full timeline, from signed contract to finished install, usually runs three to six weeks depending on manufacturer lead times and permit processing. Impact windows from brands like CWS or ES Windows sometimes have longer factory lead times, which we tell you up front. We give you a schedule when you sign and we hold to it. We will be there when we say. Call (754) 339-0784 for a timeline specific to your project.
Yes. We pull all required permits through the City of Greenacres or the appropriate municipality in your area, including Palm Springs, Lake Worth Beach, and Boynton Beach. Window and door replacements in Palm Beach County require proper permitting and inspections, especially for impact-rated products where the code is strict. The permit cost is a line item on your written estimate, and we schedule and pass inspections as part of the job. No shortcuts. Call (754) 339-0784 to talk through what your specific project requires.
Yes, we replace windows and doors in condos throughout Greenacres, Palm Springs, Atlantis, and the surrounding communities. Condo work has extra steps, including association approval and sometimes wind-load requirements specific to upper floors. We handle the paperwork and coordination with your building management, and we schedule around building rules. The process is the same as for a single-family home: free estimate, written fixed quote, permit, install, inspection, warranty registration. Call (754) 339-0784 to discuss your building's requirements.
Hire a professional. Window replacement involves removing old units, repairing or shimming frames, sealing against Florida humidity and storms, and meeting code. An out-of-true install binds in July heat, leaks in rainy season, and voids manufacturer warranties. The sealants and flashing details are where problems show up years later. We measure every opening twice and the job is not done until the pane is true. It is the name on our truck, and it is why we stand behind the workmanship for 90 days with no arguing. Call (754) 339-0784 for a free estimate.
Brands & Parts FAQs
We quote and install several manufacturer lines, including CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, and we show you the price sheets side by side on paper so you can compare them directly. Each line has different strengths, from impact ratings to energy performance to custom sizes. Dale Kessler has been working with these manufacturer lines long enough to know which one fits a given home and budget best. We do not push one brand. We show you the numbers and the specs, and you decide. Call (754) 339-0784 to see the options for your home.
For impact protection in Greenacres and across Palm Beach County, CWS and ES Windows both offer strong, code-compliant impact lines. CWS is known for heavy-duty hurricane-rated products with good pricing on standard sizes. ES Windows offers premium aluminum impact lines with cleaner sightlines, suited to higher-end homes in Palm Beach, Manalapan, and Royal Palm Beach. The best choice depends on your opening sizes, exposure, and budget. We quote both side by side so you can see the difference in writing. Call (754) 339-0784 to schedule your free estimate.
Yes, glass replacement is an option when the frame is sound. If the sash is square, operates smoothly, and shows no rot or corrosion, we can replace the insulated glass unit, or IGU, rather than the entire window. This typically runs $180 to $450 per pane depending on size and whether impact or low-E coatings are involved. If the frame is out of true or the seals have failed repeatedly, full replacement is usually the smarter long-term call. We will tell you which path makes sense for your windows and quote both. Call (754) 339-0784.
We repair common window hardware issues including failed balances, stuck sashes, broken locks, and worn rollers on sliding doors. Delta and alpha balance replacements, lock swaps, and roller changes are the most frequent repair calls we see in Greenacres. If the window is otherwise in good shape, hardware repair is far cheaper than replacement, usually a few hundred dollars rather than a few thousand. We always tell you if a repair is not worth doing and replacement is the better call. Call (754) 339-0784 to describe your issue and get an honest recommendation.
We can match most existing windows closely enough for a partial replacement to look intentional, though exact matches depend on the manufacturer and how old the originals are. For common aluminum or vinyl lines still in production, we source the same or equivalent series. For discontinued lines, we recommend matching the style and finish as closely as possible, or replacing all windows on a given wall for consistency. We will tell you straight what is possible before you spend anything. Call (754) 339-0784 to discuss your specific windows.
Licensing & Insurance FAQs
Yes. Every pro working under the TruePane name is required to hold the license and insurance that the state of Florida and Palm Beach County require for window and door installation work. We pull permits on projects that require them, and we pass the inspections that go with those permits. You should never hire a window contractor who cannot show a license when asked. We are glad to provide documentation before any work begins. Call (754) 339-0784 if you want to verify credentials before scheduling an estimate.
The workmanship and the people who perform it are both backed by requirements set by TruePane, the parent brand. Everyone who performs work under our name must carry the insurance their state requires, and the workmanship carries a written 90-day warranty under the Keystone Standard. The local team is built around journeymen and apprentices trained up through the trade. Dale Kessler runs the Greenacres branch personally and has kept the same standard since 2008: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Call (754) 339-0784 to talk through any concerns.
Emergency & Response FAQs
Yes. We board up broken windows and doors in Greenacres and the surrounding communities after storms, break-ins, or impact damage. The phone is answered 24 hours a day at (754) 339-0784, and a live coordinator will connect you with the local team. Board-up is temporary protection, and we follow up with a full replacement quote once things are secure. If water is coming in, getting the opening protected quickly prevents further damage to walls and floors. Call (754) 339-0784 any time, day or night.
If your sliding door glass shatters, clear the area, keep children and pets away, and call (754) 339-0784. We will walk you through securing the opening, schedule board-up if needed, and measure for replacement glass or a new door. Shattered tempered glass breaks into small pieces, but the edges can still cut, so do not handle large sections barehanded. Most slider glass replacements in Greenacres can be quoted quickly once we know the door brand and size. The phone is answered 24/7. Call (754) 339-0784.
Yes. If a door frame is kicked in, rotted, or storm-damaged and the door will not secure, we respond. A door that will not lock is a security issue, not just a repair. We can secure the opening, assess the frame, and give you options for repair or full replacement. Depending on the damage, the repair may be a same-week job, and we quote everything in writing before work starts. Call (754) 339-0784 and tell the coordinator what happened. They will get the right person on it.
Warranty & Guarantees FAQs
Every window and door we install carries two warranty layers, both registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. First is the manufacturer warranty, the duration of which depends on the brand and product line, and we show you those durations on paper when we quote. Second is our Keystone Standard workmanship warranty: 90 days in writing, with no arguing. If something we installed is not right, we come back and fix it. That is the whole point of the guarantee. Call (754) 339-0784 for specifics on any product you are considering.
The 90-day workmanship warranty covers the installation itself. If a window binds, a door does not close square, a seal fails because of how we installed it, or anything else tied to our labor shows up within 90 days, we come back and make it right at no charge. No paperwork, no arguments, no runaround. The manufacturer warranty runs separately and covers the product itself for the duration stated by the brand. This is the Keystone Standard, and it is the same guarantee Dale Kessler has held to since 2008. Call (754) 339-0784 to talk about your project.
Yes. We register both layers of the warranty, manufacturer and workmanship, before the truck leaves your driveway. Manufacturer warranties often require registration within a specific window after installation to be valid, and missed registration is a common way homeowners lose coverage they paid for. We handle it as part of the job, every time. You receive documentation showing what is covered, for how long, and who to contact. Standing behind it is one of our K.E.Y.S. values. Call (754) 339-0784 with any warranty questions.
Call us. Even outside the written warranty period, we want to know if a window or door we installed is not performing. We will assess the issue, tell you straight whether it is a product failure, an installation issue, or normal wear, and quote a fix at a fair price. A company that plans to be in Greenacres in thirty years answers the phone when a past customer calls. The Keystone Standard applies to how we handle those calls, not just to the 90 days on paper. Call (754) 339-0784.
