Product Overview - VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door

Most arched doors are built by bending wood or vinyl around a form and hoping the curve holds. The VLX 100 takes a different path: ViewLux CNC-bends solid aluminum to your exact radius on computer-controlled equipment, so the arc is mathematically precise, not “close enough.” That precision matters in Palm Beach Gardens, where seasonal humidity and salt air punish any door that fits loosely enough to let moisture wander in.

Architecturally, this door belongs on homes where the entry is the statement. We’ve installed the VLX 100 on barrel-vaulted foyers in Frenchman’s Creek, as a pair of matching arches on a courtyard home in Mirasol, and as a single dramatic centerpiece in a mid-century renovation in North Palm Beach. The 2.56-inch profile width gives it a substantial, high-end visual weight without looking bulky, and the 0.098-inch wall thickness means the frame resists the flex and sag that plagues thinner aluminum systems after a few storm seasons.

What you’re getting with this series is a door fabricated to order, not trimmed from stock. TruePane Windows & Doors measures, orders, and installs it as an authorized ViewLux partner, which keeps the warranty intact from manufacturer to homeowner. That chain of accountability is the reason our clients in Palm Beach Gardens don’t end up chasing two companies when something needs attention.

Performance Features

Thermal Efficiency - The VLX 100 carries a thermal break between the interior and exterior aluminum faces, which stops the frame from conducting your air-conditioned air straight outside. For a Palm Beach Gardens home where cooling costs run all year, that NFRC-rated break translates to a measurable drop in energy load around the entry.

Acoustic Performance - A solid 0.098-inch aluminum frame with properly seated glass does more for sound control than most people expect. Homes near PGA Boulevard, the Beeline Highway, or any of our busier corridors in Palm Beach Gardens notice the difference immediately once the old hollow-core door comes out.

Airtightness & Weather Seal - Every perimeter joint gets sealed with AAMA 812-rated low-expansion foam during installation by TruePane Windows & Doors. That means no chasing air leaks around the frame with caulk later. The seal is part of the standard we install to, not an afterthought.

Waterproofing - Arched doors create unique water-shedding challenges because the curve pulls rainwater sideways along the top of the frame. The VLX 100’s engineering accounts for that geometry, and our AAMA 2400/2410-compliant installation in Palm Beach Gardens ensures exterior drainage paths stay clear of the sealing surfaces.

Wind Resistance - South Florida is High Velocity Hurricane Zone territory, and the VLX 100 is wind-load rated for exactly what Palm Beach Gardens sees each storm season. We pair it with laminated impact-rated glass when you need full protection, which also carries the added benefit of greater security against forced entry.

Security & Hardware - The multilayered aluminum construction resists prying, and the 2.56-inch profile supports multi-point locking hardware instead of a single latch. For a door this size, that means the lock engages at multiple points along the frame, not one thin bolt at the handle.

Color & Glass Options

Palm Beach Gardens is a study in two architectural moods: the bright, clean coastal look and the warm, textured Mediterranean one. Your finish choice should follow whichever your home already speaks.

Premium Black reads sharp and contemporary. It anchors modern homes in Alton and along Donald Ross Road with a crisp, gallery-like presence.

Pure White suits the coastal Florida style - bright, clean, and unfussy. It pairs well with light stucco homes near the beaches.

Anodized Silver is the architectural classic: metallic, minimal, and low-maintenance. It holds up beautifully against salt air in Palm Beach Gardens without needing re-coating.

Bronze and Champagne sit between modern and traditional. Bronze brings a rich, oiled-metal depth to darker exteriors. Champagne softens without being beige, which makes it a quiet favorite on courtyard entries.

Teak Wood is a wood-grain finish on aluminum, so you get the warmth of timber without termites, warping, or repainting. It’s ideal for older Palm Beach Gardens neighborhoods where the HOA expects a certain traditional curb appeal.

On glass, Clear maximizes natural light, Frosted and Obscure give privacy without blocking daylight, Low-E cuts heat gain, Tempered satisfies safety code for full-height glazing, and Laminated is the impact-rated choice we recommend for hurricane protection in South Florida.

Installation by TruePane Windows & Doors in Palm Beach Gardens

An arched door is only as good as the day it gets set. You can buy the finest aluminum system in the world and have the manufacturer warranty voided by a sloppy install. TruePane Windows & Doors installs the VLX 100 to AAMA 2400/2410 standards, which is the reference our region’s building codes hang on.

Our process in Palm Beach Gardens starts before the door arrives. We inspect the rough opening, confirm the arch radius matches the fabricated frame, and check the substrate for any hidden moisture or rot around the existing entry. Then we set the frame level, plumb, and square. On an arched door, that’s harder than it sounds: the curve has to be seated so the arc tracks perfectly with the door leaf, or you’ll see uneven gaps within months.

Every perimeter joint gets AAMA 812-rated low-expansion foam sealant. That seal is what gives the door its real-world airtightness and waterproofing numbers, not just what’s printed on a spec sheet. We then run a final water test around the threshold and jambs, clean the work area, and walk you through hardware and finish care before we leave.

Palm Beach Gardens brings specific challenges: high humidity that expands and contracts materials, salt air from the Intracoastal, and HVHZ wind codes that govern how deep and how often we anchor the frame. We account for all of it, and we’ve done it hundreds of times in communities like Evergrene, BallenIsles, and Old Palm.

Frequently Asked Questions - VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door

What is the lead time for the VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door?
Lead time for the VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door runs 6 to 10 weeks from final measurement confirmation and finish approval, depending on fabrication volume and glass selection. Because every unit is CNC-bent to your specific arc, we recommend finalizing your finish and glass choices early in the process to avoid scheduling delays. Call (772) 794-8169 for current lead times in Palm Beach Gardens.

Does the VLX 100 qualify for energy tax credits?
The VLX 100’s NFRC-rated thermal performance may qualify toward the federal energy-efficient home improvement credit when the door is installed with qualifying Low-E glass. Eligibility depends on the exact glass package you select and current IRS guidelines, not just the frame. We can help you confirm qualification before you commit. Call (772) 794-8169 to review your options.

What warranty comes with the Arched / Custom Door?
The VLX 100 carries a manufacturer warranty from ViewLux on the frame and finish, and TruePane Windows & Doors backs the installation with our own workmanship warranty. The manufacturer warranty only remains valid when the door is installed to AAMA standards, which is exactly how we install it in Palm Beach Gardens. Call (772) 794-8169 for full warranty terms specific to your project.

Can I customize the size?
Yes, the VLX 100 is custom fabricated to order, so your arch height, width, and radius are all built to your opening, not selected from pre-set sizes. That’s the point of a CNC-bent system: the machine doesn’t care whether your arc is a perfect radius or a flattened ellipse. We measure the exact opening, confirm the arc geometry, and the door is made to match. Call (772) 794-8169 to schedule a free measurement.

How do I maintain aluminum frames?
Aluminum frame maintenance in Palm Beach Gardens comes down to washing the frame with mild soap and water every few months and keeping the sill drainage channels free of debris. If you’re near the coast, rinse salt residue off more often. The powder-coated or anodized finishes don’t need painting, ever. For real-world care tips for your specific finish, call us at (772) 794-8169.
