AfterWindows & Doors Services in Lantana, FL
If you live in Lantana, you already know the problem. The aluminum-frame windows installed when your house was built have spent forty or fifty years soaking in salt air off the Intracoastal. The frames pit. The tracks bind. The louvered jalousie panels rattle in every afternoon thunderstorm and do nothing against a real one. Replacing windows and doors in Lantana is rarely a cosmetic project. It is a wind-load compliance fix, an energy bill correction, and a corrosion repair rolled into one.
TruePane Windows & Doors handles all of it. We are a second-generation glazier’s company led by Dale Kessler, and our crews work Lantana regularly. A live person answers at (561) 940-2917 whenever you call. That is true at noon on a Tuesday and at 2 a.m. after a storm, every day of the year.

Why Lantana Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Lantana is a small town with a long memory. The contractor who left a fogged seal on a house in the Moorings ten years ago still gets mentioned at the marina. That is the environment we work in, and it is the one we built the company for. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule he keeps on the whiteboard to this day: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Homeowners in Hypoluxo and Lantana Heights call us because our technicians show up in uniform, measure every opening twice, and put both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That is The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every job, from a single patio door replacement to a full impact-window overhaul. The work itself is backed by our Done Right Promise. If it is not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no fine print that covers neither.
The company has stood behind residential work since 2008 in South Florida, and we have never operated like a franchise that might not be here next season. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and sponsor county fairs and church roof funds because we plan to be in town in thirty years.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Lantana
Window Installation in Lantana
We install impact-rated and energy-efficient windows sized to the actual rough opening, not the closest stock size. Lantana’s older concrete block homes frequently have non-standard openings, so we build out the bucks and set the unit true the first time.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Lantana.
Door Installation in Lantana
Entry doors, French doors, and sliding patio doors all get set square, shimmed correctly, and tested through the full swing. A door that binds in July is a door that was never hung right in the first place.

Window Replacement in Lantana
Replacing a window in a 1960s CBS ranch means dealing with what the original builder left behind: corroded aluminum frames, jalousie louver housings, and rough openings that have shifted over decades. We remove, re-buck, and install current impact-rated units that meet Palm Beach County code.
Learn more about our Window Replacement in Lantana.
Impact Windows & Doors
Lantana sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region. Any permitted replacement must be impact-rated or shutter-protected. We quote PGT, CGI, and other Florida-manufactured impact lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying.
Energy-Efficient Windows
The same salt air that eats aluminum frames also drives your July cooling bill. We install low-E glass packages that cut heat gain without tinting the view, and we show you the ratings before we order anything.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding doors on Intracoastal-adjacent homes take a beating from salt and sand. Track replacement, roller rebuilds, and full door swaps all get marine-grade hardware where it matters.
Glass Railing Systems
For Lantana homes with pool decks or elevated patios, we install frameless glass railing systems that meet code and hold up to the salt environment. The hardware matters as much as the glass.
Custom Windows & Doors
Old Florida homes often have openings no manufacturer stocks. We order custom units and make the opening fit the door, not the other way around.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Lantana
Our crews are in Lantana regularly and typically arrive within one to two days for scheduled estimates. We work throughout town, with frequent jobs in these neighborhoods:
- Lantana Heights - 1950s and 1960s CBS homes with original jalousie windows and frequent full-opening replacements.
- Hypoluxo - residential streets near the water where salt-air corrosion is the main call driver.
- The Moorings - condos and townhomes with sliding door track failures and aged frames.
- North Lantana - ranch homes along Dixie Highway and surrounding blocks, many pre-1980 with non-compliant openings.
- Lantana Pines - single-family houses where we do energy-efficiency retrofits and full door replacements.
Why Lantana’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lantana has a specific housing stock problem that most towns do not. The post-WWII concrete block ranch homes built from the 1950s through the 1970s dominate the neighborhoods between Dixie Highway and the Intracoastal. Most still have their original jalousie windows, those louvered glass panels that cannot be made hurricane-compliant under any configuration. They leak air by design, rattle in wind, and offer no impact protection.
Those aluminum frames are also sitting in daily salt spray off the water. The corrosion is not theoretical. We regularly pull frames in Lantana that crumble at the corners when the screws finally come out. The constant salt accelerates failure of standard hardware too, which is why we quote marine-grade hardware ratings on PGT and CGI lines for homes within a few blocks of the Intracoastal. If your house is pre-1980, a permit for even a single window replacement often triggers a county inspector conversation about bringing the structure’s openings up to code. We lead with that liability angle on every estimate because ignoring it costs homeowners real money later.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Lantana
- Single impact-rated window replacement: $900 - $1,800 installed, depending on size and frame condition.
- Full jalousie-to-impact conversion per opening: $1,400 - $2,600, including buck reconstruction.
- Standard sliding patio door replacement: $2,200 - $4,500 installed.

These ranges reflect what we see on Lantana jobs. The final number depends on opening size, frame condition, the manufacturer line you choose, and whether the inspector requires additional openings brought to code. We provide written line-item quotes before any work begins. What we write is what you pay. No change orders, no surprise line items. Seniors and veterans receive a permanent 5% discount on every job.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Lantana
Full jalousie-to-impact conversion in Lantana typically runs $1,400 to $2,600 per opening once buck reconstruction and permit work are included. The exact number depends on opening size, frame condition, and the manufacturer line you select. Call (561) 940-2917 for a written line-item quote: estimates are free, and what we quote is what you pay.
Yes for any permitted replacement. Lantana sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, so the Florida Building Code requires impact-rated or shutter-protected openings. Homes built before 1980 often trigger additional compliance requirements when any single opening is replaced. We explain the full scope before you commit to anything.
Yes. We pull every required permit and schedule the inspections. A window job that skips the permit creates a liability when you sell or when an inspector notices the work. We do not skip that step, and we do not ask you to. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will tell you exactly what your project requires.
Most window and door replacements in Lantana are completed within one to two weeks of the estimate, depending on manufacturer lead time and permitting. We do not promise same-day installs on permitted work because anyone who does is either cutting a corner or lying. We will be there when we say, and the job will be done right.
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including. On homes within a few blocks of the Intracoastal, we frequently recommend Florida-manufactured impact lines like PGT and CGI for their marine-grade hardware ratings. We quote manufacturers side by side on paper so you can compare exactly what each line includes. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate with no pressure and no vague answers.

What Lantana Customers Say
"French doors to the patio, custom size because this house was built in 1961 and nothing is standard. Measured twice, three weeks to fabricate like they warned, and the install day they laid runners over my floors without being asked."
- Marie S."Eleven windows replaced in two days. The crew chief, Marcus, showed me the level on every single frame before they caulked it. My wife noticed the street noise was gone before I did."
- Ronald P."Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L.
