Fast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Lantana
Custom window and door work in Lantana runs anywhere from $1,800 for a single custom-shaped replacement window up to $28,000 or more for full oversized glass panel or curtain wall installations. The final number hinges on what we find when we open the wall: county permit triggers, septic or well setbacks on your acreage, and the condition of your original masonry rough openings. TruePane Windows & Doors has been doing this work long enough to know that a Lantana home built in 1962 does not give up its openings without a conversation. Call us at (561) 940-2917 and we will walk the property, measure every opening twice, and give you a written quote that accounts for Lantana’s specific permitting reality before we ever pick up a saw.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Lantana’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company
We have worked on enough 1950s and 1960s CBS ranch homes off Hypoluxo Road, along the streets east of Dixie Highway, and down near the Lantana Nature Preserve to know what hides behind those original jalousie frames. Lantana customers call us because we do not flinch when an opening turns out to be an inch out of square, or when the county inspector wants the whole structure’s window plan reviewed before signing off on one replacement. We do the paperwork, we build the bucks, and we stand behind the work with our Done Right Promise. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before our truck leaves your driveway, under The Keystone Standard. That is not a marketing line. That is how Dale Kessler built this company, and how we still run every job.
We also answer the phone. A live person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No call center, no callback form. When a Lantana homeowner calls about a fogged custom picture window facing the Intracoastal, they talk to someone who knows what salt air does to a seal. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and they work in your home the way they would work in their own mother’s.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Lantana
Our Custom Windows & Doors team handles the full scope of custom work on Lantana properties, but the acreage lots and older ranch homes in this town push four services to the top of nearly every quote.
Custom Shape Windows
Older Lantana homes often have openings that no modern manufacturer stocks as a standard size. Arched transoms, trapezoid vents, octagonal accent windows, and narrow louver replacements all fall into this category. We measure the existing masonry rough opening, build out a pressure-treated buck when needed to fit a current impact-rated unit, and order the custom shape from a Florida manufacturer like PGT or CGI so the frame carries a marine-grade hardware rating. On the Intracoastal side of town, that rating is not optional.

Commercial Storefront Glazing
Lantana’s small commercial strip along Dixie Highway and Federal Highway includes storefronts that have not seen new glazing since the 1980s. We install and replace storefront framing, doors, and glass for local businesses, and we coordinate with the town’s permitting office on commercial openings. Most storefront jobs in Lantana run $3,000 to $12,000 depending on lineal footage and whether the storefront needs impact-rated laminated glass under Palm Beach County wind requirements.

Curtain Wall Systems
For larger custom projects or modern additions on Lantana acreage, a curtain wall system gives you a full glass wall without structural load on the panels themselves. These are specialized installations that require precise engineering, and we handle the structural anchoring, glazing, and waterproofing on site. Because Lantana sits in Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, every curtain wall we install is engineered for impact loads and sealed against the daily salt spray that chews through standard aluminum connections.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Many Lantana homeowners want the look of divided-light windows without sacrificing impact performance or energy efficiency. Simulated divided lites (SDLs) and architectural grilles give you that traditional ranch-house look on a modern insulated impact unit. We offer interior-mount, exterior-mount, and true SDL configurations from manufacturers including CWS and ES Windows. On custom shapes, the grille patterns are built to match the window’s geometry exactly, so a trapezoid vent looks like it was cut the same day as the rest of the house.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lantana
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and on Lantana jobs the brands we reach for most are PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems. These are Florida-tested product lines with marine-grade hardware options that hold up to the daily salt exposure east of the Intracoastal. Because we stock replacement seals, sashes, and hardware for these brands locally, a Lantana customer does not wait weeks on a parts shipment from out of state when something fails. We service brands including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, and we quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying before you commit.
Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Lantana Homes
- Jalousie windows that cannot pass a county inspection. Those louvered glass panels were everywhere in 1950s and 60s Lantana, and they offer zero hurricane protection. When a homeowner tries to replace just one jalousie window on a permit, Palm Beach County inspectors often demand a plan to bring all openings up to current wind-load code. That stall turns a one-day job into a months-long project. We lead with this conversation during the estimate, not after the permit is pulled.
- Salt-spray corrosion behind the frame. Original aluminum frames on Intracoastal-adjacent homes look fine from the outside while the jamb behind them rots. When we pull an old window on a Lantana property and find corroded anchors or water-damaged wood buck framing, the opening needs full flashing tape and buck repair before any new unit goes in. That hidden scope is why our quotes include a rough-opening inspection allowance on pre-1980 homes.
- Non-standard rough openings on post-WWII CBS homes. The concrete block ranches that dominate Lantana’s housing stock were built when window openings were framed without concern for modern impact-rated unit dimensions. Custom pressure-treated bucks are frequently required to close the gap between the original masonry and a new impact window. On a recent 1950s ranch off Hypoluxo Road, our crew built custom bucks for every window in the house because the masonry openings were a full inch and a half wider than any current casement or picture window’s frame tolerance.
- Oversized glass panel logistics on acreage lots. Lantana’s larger parcels mean longer material hauls from the street to the house, and a single missing seal or sash part can halt work for days if it is not on the truck. We pre-stage all custom shapes and oversized glass panels before crews arrive, so the work does not stop waiting on a delivery from a warehouse two hours away.
Pricing for Custom Windows & Doors in Lantana, FL
Here is what we see on Lantana jobs in 2026. A single custom-shaped impact window typically runs $1,800 to $4,200 including the buck, flashing, and permit.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Lantana
You can technically pull a permit for a single jalousie replacement in Lantana, but Palm Beach County inspectors frequently respond by requiring a plan to bring all remaining jalousie openings up to current wind-load code before closing the permit. The practical reality is that a one-window project often becomes a whole-house window project once the county reviews the property. We tell Lantana homeowners this before they pay for a permit, not after. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will scope the full conversation with you during the free estimate.
Lantana homes on well and septic sit under county setback rules that can push a proposed window or door opening away from drain fields and wellheads, especially when the opening is an egress door or an oversized glass panel opening. On one 1950s CBS ranch off Hypoluxo Road, a planned bump-out for an oversized sliding glass door had to shift six feet to clear a rear drain field setback. We identified that early and handled the county variance paperwork before quoting, so the homeowner never lost a day to a stop-work order. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will check your parcel’s setbacks as part of the estimate.
Lantana sits under Palm Beach County’s Florida Building Code enforcement for structural and opening changes, so any window or door replacement that changes the size of an opening, installs impact glazing, or modifies framing requires a permit. Repairs that replace glass or hardware in an existing frame may not. We pull the permit, schedule the inspections, and close everything out in writing for every Lantana job that requires one. Call (561) 940-2917 and we will tell you exactly which category your project falls into.
Lantana’s salt-air environment corrodes aluminum frames from the inside out. The exterior face gets washed by rain and looks intact, while the hidden anchors, jamb connections, and rough-opening framing behind it are corroded or rotted. When we pull the old unit, we frequently find the rough opening needs full flashing tape and buck repair before a new impact window can be seated properly. We budget for that discovery on every pre-1980 Lantana home so it does not hit you as a surprise change order. Call (561) 940-2917 for a free estimate that includes a rough-opening inspection allowance.
Yes, but the masonry rough opening on an older CBS home rarely accommodates an oversized fixed picture window without structural work. You will need a header upgrade, and if the window is large enough to be considered an egress opening or if it sits near a drain field or well setback, the county may have input on size and placement. A large fixed window facing Lantana back acreage typically runs $3,500 to $9,000 depending on glass dimensions and header scope. We engineer the opening, build the supports, and pull the permit. Call (561) 940-2917 to talk through your specific wall and your specific view.
If you live in Lantana and need custom shapes, oversized glass panels, or architectural grilles and SDLs, call us at (561) 940-2917. We will measure every opening twice, check your parcel for county and septic setbacks, and give you a written line-item quote with both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing. No surprises on the bill, no arguing later. That is The Keystone Standard, and we have been standing behind it for more than years.
