AfterES Windows Custom Windows & Doors in Greenacres: What to Know First
We provide independent ES Windows custom windows & doors service in Greenacres, with most jobs quoted within 48 hours and completed in one to two visits depending on glass lead time. Custom shape windows, oversized panels, storefront glazing, and architectural grille work typically run from $900 to $4,800 in this market, and you’ll get a written line-item quote before any work begins. This page is for Greenacres homeowners and business owners who already have ES Windows products and need custom work done without the manufacturer runaround.
Call (754) 339-0784 and a live person answers, day or night.
How ES Windows Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- ES Windows impact-rated casements losing their seal at the bottom sash rail. We see this on the earlier ES70 and ES80 series units in Greenacres, where the adhesive gasket between glass and frame breaks down after eight to ten years of South Florida humidity. The tell is a fog line that starts at the bottom corner and creeps upward in the morning. We remove the sash, replace the gasket with a marine-grade equivalent, and set the glass back with a mechanical bite, not just adhesive.
- Custom arch tops and radius windows where the frame bows outward at the apex. ES Windows builds a lot of radius units for Greenacres homes with barrel-vault entries, and the aluminum extrusion used in their fixed-lite arch series can flex at the crown if the rough opening was even a quarter-inch out of square. We re-shim the opening, reset the frame with load-bearing blocks at the quarter points, and re-caulk with a sealant rated for 50% joint movement.
- Multi-point hardware on ES Windows hinged terrace doors binding in July. The ES71 hinged door line uses a three-point locking system that works fine until the door slab swells in the wet season. Homeowners think the lock is broken. Nine times out of ten the issue is an unstressed hinge pack and a bottom sweep that’s dragging on the sill. We adjust the hinges, plane the sweep, and re-time the lock points so the handle doesn’t require a two-handed pull.
- Architectural grilles and SDLs (simulated divided lites) rattling inside the insulated unit. ES Windows installs internal grilles on many of their ES63 double-hung models, and the grille clips can loosen over years of thermal cycling. The rattle is the clip working back and forth against the spacer bar. We can order the OEM clip set when it’s still in production, or fabricate a nylon pin replacement that holds tighter than the original.
- Oversized fixed picture windows where the weep system clogs and water backs up into the track. ES Windows wide-span picture units drain through a narrow channel at the sill, and Greenacres pollen plus summer rain will plug that channel within a few seasons. If you see water pooling on the interior sill after a storm, the weep holes are blocked. We clean the channel, open the weeps to the factory spec, and install a micro-mesh cover so it doesn’t re-clog in six months.
Our ES Windows Custom Windows & Doors Process
- 1
Call and talk to a person, not a menu. You describe what’s happening with your ES Windows unit. We schedule a time that works, and a uniformed, background-checked technician shows up when we say.
- 2
On-site diagnostic. We measure the opening twice, inspect the frame, glass, hardware, and weather seals, and tell you exactly what’s wrong. No vague guesses.
- 3
Written quote with line items. You get the work scoped on paper. We quote OEM ES Windows parts when they’re available and make sense, and quality aftermarket parts when the OEM lead time or price is the problem. You see the difference before you decide.
- 4
The work. We set the glass, re-hang the door, rebuild the frame, or fabricate the custom shape. Most jobs wrap in one visit. Custom glass orders may need a second visit once the panel is cut.
- 5
Testing and cleanup. We cycle the hardware, run water where water’s a concern, and check the reveal with a level. Then we sweep, haul out the old materials, and walk you through what was done.
- 6
Warranty registration before we leave. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing while we’re still at your house. The Keystone Standard: durations stated, paperwork handed to you, no fine print surprises. And our Done Right Promise covers the workmanship. If it’s not right, we make it right, no arguing.

What moves the price: glass thickness, whether the unit is impact-rated, the size of the rough opening, whether we need a crane or a two-man lift, and whether we’re matching an existing finish on the frame. We quote it on paper and the number doesn’t change once the work starts. Call (754) 339-0784 for a free estimate, and we’ll tell you straight what your job will cost.
Why Greenacres Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for ES Windows Work
We’re the shop that takes the call when another company already made a mess. Dale Kessler grew up off Jog Road in Greenacres and has been setting glass and hanging doors in Palm Beach County for going on two decades, trained at Palm Beach State College where his instructors drilled one habit above all: read the rough opening before you touch a tape measure. That’s the discipline we bring to every ES Windows job. We carry OEM and aftermarket parts for ES Windows units, and when a project is better served by a different line, we can quote side-by-side against, or PGT since we’re authorized installers for all of them. The Done Right Promise sits behind every job in writing. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
FAQs
We handle warranty-eligible repairs as an independent ES Windows service provider, meaning we diagnose the unit, order OEM parts when available, and document everything you need to pursue the manufacturer’s coverage. We are not affiliated with or authorized by ES Windows, but we’ve worked on enough of their units in Greenacres to know exactly how their warranty cover sheet works and what the fine print does and doesn’t cover. Call (754) 339-0784 and we’ll help you figure out what’s covered.
Yes. We source the glass from regional fabricators who stock or can cut to the exact thickness, tint, and Low-E coating spec your ES Windows unit originally shipped with. For patterns that are no longer available, we match visually and verify the performance ratings before ordering. The estimate is free, so you’ll know before you commit.
If the frame is square and sound, repair almost always costs less, usually between $450 and $2,400 in Greenacres depending on the glass and hardware involved. We recommend replacement when the frame shows corrosion, the thermal break has failed, or the original install left the unit out-of-spec. We’ll show you both numbers and let you decide.
Most leak calls in Greenacres we schedule for a same-week diagnostic visit. If water is actively intruding into the building, call (754) 339-0784 right away and we’ll prioritize the stopgap so the damage doesn’t spread before the permanent fix goes in.
Yes, when the scope requires it. Most like-for-like glass replacements in Greenacres don’t need a permit, but structural changes, impact-rated upgrades, and storefront modifications usually do. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and don’t close the job until it passes. That’s part of the square deal, same as the written quote and the warranty registration.
