Trusted Custom Windows & Doors for Palm Beach Gardens Homeowners
Custom windows and doors in Palm Beach Gardens means working with openings that standard sizes simply don’t fit. Most custom work in this area is driven by three realities: hurricane-code openings on older concrete-block homes, arched or radius tops that were special-ordered four decades ago, and remodels where the homeowner wants a specific look without tearing out structural framing. A custom window or door in Palm Beach Gardens typically costs $1,200 to $4,800 per opening installed, depending on impact rating, glass package, and whether the frame needs modification. We’ve been setting those openings true since 2008 through a craft heritage that goes back to second-generation glazier Dale Kessler. Call (772) 794-8169 and a live person answers, day or night.
At TruePane Windows & Doors, we measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and every job carries our Done Right Promise. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
What Our Custom Windows & Doors Service Includes
Custom Shape Windows
Custom shape windows cover anything outside the standard rectangle: arches, eyebrow tops, circles, octagons, trapezoids, and the angled glass you see on contemporary Florida homes. When you need one of these in Palm Beach Gardens, the critical step is getting the radius or angle template exact before ordering, because a custom-shaped unit cut wrong is a six-to-twelve-week mistake you cannot field-fix. We take physical templates on site, not just measurements from the rough opening, and we verify the template against the actual frame with a laser level before submitting the order. Dale Kessler’s rule applies harder here than anywhere: if the pane is not true on a radius window, the whole wall reads crooked forever.
Commercial Storefront Glazing
Commercial storefront glazing is the aluminum-framed, full-height glass you see on retail fronts, offices, and restaurant entrances in Palm Beach Gardens. Storefront systems work differently than residential windows; they are set in engineered aluminum channels with specific sealant joints that have to handle thermal expansion without failing in south Florida humidity. We install and replace storefront glazing to code, pulling permits where required and making sure the glass package meets current wind-load standards for Palm Beach County. Our uniformed technicians have set hundreds of storefront lites from Juno Beach to West Palm Beach, and we stand behind every one of them in writing.
Curtain Wall Systems
Curtain wall systems are the non-load-bearing glass walls you see on larger commercial buildings and some high-end residential additions. The difference between a curtain wall and a standard storefront is that the curtain wall hangs outside the structural frame, which means anchoring, thermal break, and drainage details have to be engineered, not guessed at. We handle curtain wall installation and replacement with the same measuring discipline as every other job: two-person verification on every dimension, anchor spacing checked against the manufacturer’s engineering table, and both warranty layers registered before we drive away. If a curtain wall leaks in Palm Beach Gardens, it’s rarely the glass, it’s the joinery; we make sure the joinery is done right the first time.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Architectural grilles and simulated divided lites (SDLs) are the decorative bars that give a window or door its historical or architectural character. They are built either inside the insulated glass unit or applied to the interior and exterior surfaces, and getting them lined up with true divided lites on adjacent windows takes more care than most people assume. We order grille patterns and SDL profiles to match existing sight lines, so a replacement sash reads the same from the street as the original. In Palm Beach Gardens neighborhoods like PGA National and Old Palm, that continuity matters to the resale value of the house.
Oversized Glass Panels
Oversized glass panels are the fixed picture windows, sliding door lites, and transom glass that exceed standard tempered or laminated panel sizes. In Florida, oversized panels almost always need to be impact-rated laminated units, and the logistics of getting a 600-pound lite from the truck to the opening without damage is where real glazier experience shows. We set oversized panels with suction rigs, glass dollies, and a crew of journeyman glaziers who have done it for years, not a sub crew that learned last week. We believe in doing it once, correctly, with the right equipment, and our Done Right Promise backs that belief in writing.

Brands We Service for Custom Windows & Doors
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and when it comes to custom work we quote them side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you’re buying. PGT and CGI are the two names that come up most often in Palm Beach Gardens for impact-rated custom windows and doors. Both build to Florida product approval standards, and we’ve installed enough of each to know their lead times, their frame finish options, and how their laminated glass packages perform after a decade of salt air and summer sun. When a homeowner asks us to match an existing PGT unit from 2008, we can usually do it without changing the reveal or the interior trim profile.
Jeld-Wen is another line we service regularly, particularly for wood and clad-wood custom windows where the homeowner insists on a paintable interior. We’ve ordered and installed enough Jeld-Wen custom units to know their corner joinery and their hardware specs, and we stock replacement weatherstripping and balances for the common Jeld-Wen lines that were popular in homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s. Whether you have Jeld-Wen, PGT, CGI, or any other make, we can help. If it’s outside the standard catalog, we’ll template it, order it, set it, and stand behind it.
Signs You Need Custom Windows & Doors Right Now
- Condensation between the glass panes. If you can wipe the inside and the outside of the glass and the fog stays put, the seal has failed. A failed seal in one pane of an arched or radius window means the whole unit gets replaced; there is no field repair for a dead thermal unit. In Palm Beach Gardens humidity, that fog becomes visible within a year of the seal failing.
- Wood rot at the sill or jamb on a non-standard opening. On custom-sized windows, rot in the frame means more than a sash swap. The rough opening often needs repair or resizing before the new unit goes in, and that’s work you want done by someone who has done it on a custom radius before. Rotted custom frames only get worse during hurricane season when driving rain finds every soft spot.
- A door that binds in the July heat. In south Florida, wood and even some aluminum doors absorb heat and humidity differently through the seasons. A door that scrapes the threshold in July but swings fine in January is telling you the frame is twisting or the slab has warped. We see this constantly in Palm Beach Gardens homes built in the 1970s and 1980s, and the fix is usually a custom replacement with modern weatherstripping and a heavier-gauge frame.
- You can hear every leaf blower and lawn crew on the block. Old single-pane glass and thin aluminum frames transmit noise almost unimpeded. Custom replacement units with a proper insulating glass package and a tighter frame cut that noise dramatically. For homes on PGA Boulevard or near I-95, the difference is like closing a door.
- The window no longer locks, or the crank spins without moving the sash. On custom windows, broken hardware is often no longer made. The original manufacturer folded, or the line was discontinued, or the hardware vendor changed their extrusion profile. A replacement custom window with current hardware and a working lock is a security issue first and a convenience issue second.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Process - Step by Step
- 1
We measure, template, and document. A technician comes to your home in a marked truck, in uniform, and background-checked. We measure every opening twice, take photographs, and for shaped openings we build a physical template that gets checked against the actual frame with a laser level. We note the wall construction, the condition of the rough opening, and any existing water intrusion we can see.
- 2
We quote on paper, side by side. You get a line-item written quote that names the manufacturer, the glass package, the frame material, the hardware, and the warranty durations, stated in plain language. We quote manufacturer lines next to each other so you can compare apples to apples. Fixed pricing means the number on the quote is the number on the bill. No change orders because we guessed wrong at the walkthrough.
- 3
We order and verify. Once you approve, we place the order and verify the manufacturer’s acknowledgment against our field measurements before the unit goes to production. For custom work, that verification step catches mistakes before they become six-week delays. We call you the day the truck arrives at our shop, not the day after.
- 4
We set the unit, seal it, and dress the opening. Our crew arrives when we say we will. We set the unit level and plumb, shim it correctly, seal the exterior per the manufacturer’s spec and Florida code, insulate the rough opening, and install or replace interior trim so the job looks finished, not framed-in. For impact windows, we set the anchor schedule exactly per the product approval drawings.
- 5
We register warranties and walk you through the work. Walk with us before we pack the truck. We’ll show you how the locks work, how the weep system drains, and where to find the warranty paperwork. Then we register both warranty layers in writing and hand you a copy. The Done Right Promise starts the day we finish, and it means what it says: if something’s not done right, we make it right.
How Much Does Custom Windows & Doors Cost in Palm Beach Gardens?
What moves the price: impact glass versus standard insulated, laminated versus annealed, vinyl versus aluminum versus wood-clad, the size and weight of the panel, and whether the rough opening needs carpentry repair. What should not move the price is anything you didn’t approve. We write fixed quotes with no surprise line items, and the price we hand you is the price we stand behind. A free estimate from TruePane includes on-site measurement, a written line-item quote, and straight answers about what you can skip and what you shouldn’t. Call (772) 794-8169 and a live person will schedule it.

Frequently Asked Questions - Custom Windows & Doors in Palm Beach Gardens
What is a custom window or door?
A custom window or door is any unit built to a size, shape, or specification that isn’t in a manufacturer’s standard catalog. That includes arched tops, radius corners, extra-tall sliders, oversized picture windows, and units built with specific glass packages to meet Florida impact requirements. In Palm Beach Gardens, many homes from the 1970s and 1980s have non-standard openings that were special-ordered when the house was built, so replacing one usually means ordering custom from the same line or a compatible manufacturer. Call (772) 794-8169 and we’ll tell you honestly whether you actually need custom or whether a standard size will work.
How long does it take to get custom windows and doors?
Custom windows and doors in Palm Beach Gardens typically take 6 to 12 weeks from order to installation, depending on the manufacturer’s production queue and whether the glass package is impact-rated. The measurement and quoting step takes about an hour on site, and we verify the order acknowledgment against our field measurements before the unit is built. That one verification step has saved more time on custom jobs than any other part of our process. Call for an exact timeline for your specific opening, and remember these are estimates, not guarantees, because a hurricane season order spike can push production anywhere in Florida.
How much does a custom window cost in Palm Beach Gardens?
Most custom windows run $1,200 to $3,600 installed per opening, and most custom doors run $2,400 to $7,500 installed. The range depends on impact requirements, frame material, glass package, and whether structural modification is needed around the rough opening. You won’t know your exact number until someone measures and templates the opening, but our quotes are fixed once written, so the price won’t move after you approve. Estimates are free, and there is no obligation to buy.
Do you service PGT and Jeld-Wen custom windows and doors?
Yes. We are an authorized installer for PGT among more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we order, install, and stand behind custom units from both. For many Palm Beach Gardens homes built with PGT impact windows, we can match the existing product line and sometimes the original frame profile so the replacement reads seamlessly from the curb. Our Keystone Standard applies no matter which brand you choose: both warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before we leave the driveway.
Do you offer emergency service for broken custom windows or doors?
Yes. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and if a custom window or door is broken or won’t secure, we can talk you through securing the opening and get a technician out. For a shattered impact window or a door that will not lock, board-up and temporary repair options are available. Call (772) 794-8169 any time, day or night, and you will talk to a person who works for TruePane, not a call center.
What warranty covers custom windows and doors?
Every custom window or door we install carries two warranty layers: the manufacturer’s warranty on the product itself and TruePane’s workmanship warranty on the installation. The Keystone Standard means both layers are registered in writing, durations stated clearly, before the truck leaves your driveway. Our Done Right Promise is simpler: if it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no fine print that covers neither. That’s the whole promise.
How do I prepare my home for a custom window or door installation?
Clear a working path to each opening and move furniture, wall hangings, and valuables at least six feet back from the work area. Window installation generates dust, even when we tarp and vacuum as we go, so cover or relocate anything fragile. On installation day, plan to have an adult at home to answer any questions and do the final walkthrough. And if you have pets, keep them in a closed room or away from the work area until the crew packs up. We take pride in leaving your house cleaner than we found it, but a little preparation from you makes the day go smoothly for everyone.
