Fast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Lantana
Impact window and door replacement in Lantana typically runs $900-$2,400 per opening installed, with full-home retrofits on older CBS ranch homes landing between $18,000 and $45,000 depending on opening count and the condition of the original masonry bucks. Most jobs in Lantana take two to four days once permits clear. If you own one of the town’s 1950s or 1960s concrete block homes with original jalousie windows, the real question is not whether to replace them, but whether Palm Beach County code will force the issue before you are ready. Call (561) 940-2917 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Lantana’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
TruePane Windows & Doors has been installing and servicing impact-rated windows and doors across South Florida since 2008, and our crews know Lantana’s housing stock the way a carpenter knows his own tool wall. Dale Kessler founded this company on a rule that still governs every job we take: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. In Lantana, that rule gets tested by salt air, non-standard masonry openings, and the jalousie windows that Palm Beach County inspectors will not pass, no matter what configuration you try.
Our Impact Windows & Doors team has walked enough Lantana lots off West Mango Street, North 3rd Street, and the streets running east of Dixie Highway to know what a tight Intracoastal-side property demands. Staging materials in a shared driveway without blocking the neighbor’s car. Cutting noise during the HOA’s work-hour window. Keeping the site clean enough that a retiree can walk out her front door without tripping over flashing tape. We treat every Lantana job like it is the one that decides whether you recommend us at the next HOA meeting.
Background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying, and we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. A live person answers every call, 24/7. That is not a marketing line; it is how we work.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Lantana
Hurricane Impact Windows
Lantana sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, and the code is explicit: any permitted replacement opening must be impact-rated or shutter-protected. The jalousie windows found on most pre-1980 ranch homes here cannot meet that standard in any configuration, which means a full impact window retrofit is often the only path to a permit that clears inspection. We install impact-rated single-hungs, double-hungs, casements, and picture windows from Florida manufacturers like PGT and CGI, with marine-grade hardware specified for salt-air exposure. On older masonry homes, we build out the rough openings on-site so the new unit sits flush and seals correctly.

Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors on Intracoastal-adjacent Lantana homes face two enemies: hurricane wind pressure and daily salt corrosion on the track and rollers. We see original aluminum sliders from the 1960s and 1970s that bind and jump the track within a decade of installation because standard hardware was never rated for coastal exposure. Our crews replace them with impact-rated sliders built on marine-grade tracks, with stainless rollers and interlocking frames that handle both the wind load and the corrosion cycle. We measure the existing opening twice and quote the replacement in writing before any work starts.

Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors on Lantana’s CBS ranch homes are frequently original hollow-core units that would fail a wind-load test on a calm day. Impact-rated entry and French doors from lines like ES Windows give you a door that actually closes square in July and stays upright in a named storm. We handle the full replacement, including the threshold rebuild that salt air has usually compromised by the time we arrive. If the slab has settled, we flag it and correct the door fit before the new unit goes in.

Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors in Lantana are the single largest unbraced opening on most homes, and a non-rated door buckling under wind pressure turns the garage into a sail that can lift the roof structure. We install impact-rated garage doors and reinforcement systems sized for the oversize single-car openings common to 1950s and 1960s builds. The work includes new track brackets anchored to CBS block, not the original wood nailers that have been rotting in the salt air for fifty years.

Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Jalousie windows that will not pass code: Those louvered glass panels on pre-1980 ranch homes cannot be made hurricane-compliant under any configuration. Once a permit is pulled for even one opening, Palm Beach County inspectors often require the entire structure’s openings to be brought up to impact-rated or shutter-protected standard. We lead with this in every estimate on older Lantana lots.
- Salt-air corrosion on aluminum frames and hardware: Homes east of the Intracoastal get sustained salt spray that eats standard aluminum frames and hardware within five to ten years. Jambs seize, sashes bind, and locks snap. Marine-grade hardware is not an upgrade here; it is the baseline.
- Non-standard masonry rough openings: 1950s-1970s CBS construction left rough openings that do not match modern impact unit dimensions. Installers who skip the buck build-out end up with undersized flashing tape and water intrusion at the frame. We build out the opening on-site and flash it correctly before the new unit goes in.
- Permit triggers on single-opening replacements: Replacing one corroded window on a jalousie-era home frequently triggers a county conversation about the whole structure. Homeowners are rarely prepared for that. We flag it in the estimate so no one is surprised at inspection.

A single impact-rated window replacement in Lantana typically runs $1,100-$2,200 installed, including the buck build-out on older masonry openings.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Lantana
Jalousie windows are louvered glass panels with no structural frame capable of holding an impact-rated glazing system, so no configuration, including film or clips, satisfies Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris requirements. Any permit pulled on a home with jalousie openings creates a code compliance issue that inspectors will flag. Call (561) 940-2917 for an exact read on your house before you pull a permit.
Yes, Palm Beach County requires a permit for any window or door replacement that modifies the opening, and if the home has original jalousie windows, the inspector will likely require all openings to meet current code before signing off. We handle the permit package and the compliance conversation. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will walk you through what your specific home triggers.
Salt air east of the Intracoastal causes standard aluminum frames and hardware to corrode and bind within five to ten years, which is why we specify marine-grade hardware and Florida-manufactured impact lines like PGT and CGI for Lantana homes. Non-marine hardware is a false economy here. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate on marine-grade replacement units.
If the frame is corroded, the answer is usually no. The frame is the structural piece that holds the impact-rated glazing in a hurricane, and a corroded frame cannot be reglazed to code. Replacing the full unit is the only path to a permit that clears. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will tell you straight what your existing frames can and cannot support.
Tight lots off West Mango Street and the streets east of Dixie Highway mean staging materials in shared driveways, working within HOA noise windows, and protecting the neighbor’s property during the job. That site logistics work is part of the quote, not an afterthought. We factor it in writing, so the number you get is the number you pay. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate that accounts for your lot, not a generic template.
On a tight Intracoastal-side lot off West Mango Street, our crew replaced a 1960s CBS ranch’s failed jalousies with impact-rated ViewLux double-hungs. The original masonry rough openings were non-standard, so we built out the bucks on-site, flagged the now-triggered whole-structure compliance, and kept the neighbor notified through the party-wall noise window while staging materials in the shared driveway without blocking access. That is how we work in Lantana, on every job.
