Fast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Greenacres
Impact window and door replacement on a Greenacres home is rarely a simple swap. Most houses here were built between 1970 and 1990, and a large share still carry original aluminum single-hung or jalousie windows set into CBS walls that have shifted over decades. That means the work usually involves full rough-opening rebuilds, shimming, anchoring, and wind mitigation paperwork, not insert retrofits. TruePane has done this exact job on Greenacres ranches along Jog Road, Lake Worth Road, and the HOA communities between them. If you want a straight answer about what your house actually needs, call (561) 940-2917 and we’ll walk you through it.
Key Takeaways

- A typical whole-home impact window package in Greenacres runs $14,000 to $38,000 depending on opening count, jalousie rebuilds, and permit scope.
- A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail tree.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Greenacres’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
We are not the cheapest bid in Greenacres, and we will not pretend to be. What we are is the company that shows up when we say, measures every opening twice, and puts both warranty layers in writing before we leave. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule that still governs every job: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard matters more on a 1979 CBS ranch off Jog Road than almost anywhere else, because out-of-square masonry openings punish sloppy installs within a season or two.
Homeowners in Greenacres call us because their wind mitigation report flagged jalousie windows as an automatic deficiency, or because their insurer non-renewed a policy over non-impact openings. We have walked enough of those homes to know what the inspector will look for and what the permit office will require. Our crews are background-checked and uniformed, and they treat your house the way they would treat their own mother’s. The Done Right Promise backs every install: if it is not done right, we make it right, no paperwork fights and no arguing.
We also serve Greenacres as a local crew, not a regional call center. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami office, but the technicians who pull up to your home know the streets, the HOAs, and the specific ways 1970s CBS construction complicates an impact window job. Call (561) 940-2917 and you will speak to a person who can answer questions about your specific situation.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Greenacres
Every Impact Windows & Doors job we take in Greenacres starts with an inspection of the existing openings. On older CBS ranches, that inspection usually reveals jalousie frames with no viable weatherstripping, aluminum single-hungs with failed seals, or masonry openings that have drifted out of square. We address all of it before the first new window goes in. Here is what that looks like across the services Greenacres homeowners ask for most.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Greenacres homes built before the post-Hurricane Andrew code updates rarely have impact-rated glazing. Our crews replace jalousie and original aluminum windows with fusion-welded frames and laminated impact glass, anchored into the CBS substrate the way Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region rules require. We shim every opening square, flash the perimeter, and run the water test before we consider the install finished. A full-house retrofit in Greenacres typically runs $14,000 to $38,000 depending on opening count and how many jalousie rough openings need rebuilding.

Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Many Greenacres ranches have a rear slider facing a screened patio or canal view, and those sliders are often original 1970s non-impact units. We replace them with impact-rated sliding glass doors that meet current code and operate smoothly even in the humidity. On Greenacres homes, the track bed often needs leveling first because the slab has settled slightly over 40-plus years. A typical impact slider install here runs $4,500 to $9,500 installed, depending on size and whether the rough opening needs masonry work.

Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors on Greenacres CBS homes take direct afternoon sun, which warps non-impact units and breaks down weatherstripping fast. We install impact-rated entry and French doors with proper anchoring into the concrete block. The work includes adjusting the rough opening if the door has been binding in July for years. Expect $3,800 to $8,000 for a standard impact entry door, and more for French door pairs or custom sizes.

Impact Garage Doors
Attached garages on Greenacres ranches are a common wind mitigation failure point. A non-impact garage door can undermine the credits you earn from impact windows elsewhere on the house. We install and service impact-rated garage doors, including reinforcing track systems and checking the pressure ratings against what your wind mitigation report requires. Pricing runs $3,200 to $7,500 depending on door size and reinforcement needs.

Trusted Brands We Service in Greenacres
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, and Milgard. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying and what each warranty covers. For Greenacres homeowners, we also carry local stock on common impact window sizes used in 1970s and 1980s CBS construction, which shortens lead times on replacements. Both warranty layers are registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. That is The Keystone Standard, and it is not negotiable on our end.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Greenacres Homes
- Jalousie windows with no real weatherstripping. These are everywhere in original Greenacres bedrooms and bathrooms. Air leaks drive up indoor humidity, condensation forms on the glass, and mold shows up on interior sashes. Wind mitigation inspectors flag them automatically, and insurers treat them as a deficiency that justifies non-renewal or a steep surcharge.
- Fogged double-pane aluminum windows in CBS walls. Inland humidity, not salt spray, is the main killer in Greenacres. Once the seal fails on a 1980s aluminum single-hung, the insulated glass unit fogs, and the window no longer performs. Replacement glass alone does not fix the impact rating problem, and it does not satisfy current code.
- Out-of-square masonry openings. Decades of South Florida ground moisture movement leave lot of Greenacres CBS openings 1/4 to 3/8 inch out of square. A poorly installed impact window in that opening binds at the sash and leaks at the jamb. The water test catches it every time, which is why we run it on every install.
- Shifting slab under rear sliders. Sliders on 1970s ranches often sit on slabs that have settled unevenly. The door drags, the track wears, and the locking hardware stops aligning. We level the track bed during the replacement, not after the new door starts failing.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Greenacres, FL
Here are straight numbers for Greenacres work, not ranges pulled from a national chart. A full-house impact window package on a three-bedroom CBS ranch typically runs $14,000 to $38,000.

Impact entry doors run $3,800 to $8,000. Impact garage doors run $3,200 to $7,500. What moves the number is the opening count, how much masonry work the jalousie rebuilds require, and whether the permit triggers any additional code upgrades. We write allowances into the contract for anything we expect to find, and any surprise is priced and approved in writing before we touch it. No change orders that show up after the fact.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Greenacres
Jalousie windows were standard in 1970s and 1980s Greenacres construction, especially in bedrooms and bathrooms, and many homes still have the original units. During an impact window replacement, those jalousie frames cannot be retrofit; the rough opening has to be rebuilt to accept a modern fusion-welded impact window. That means removing the old frame, squaring the masonry opening, anchoring the new window into the CBS, and flashing the perimeter. Most Greenacres jalousie-swap jobs are full rough-opening replacements, not insert work. Call (561) 940-2917 and we can tell you what your specific openings will require.
In most cases, yes, and often by a lot. Greenacres homes with original jalousie or non-impact aluminum windows are flagged with automatic deficiencies on wind mitigation inspections, which drives up your premium or gets you non-renewed entirely. Replacing those openings with impact-rated windows that are properly anchored and documented removes those deficiencies and adds credits. The credits translate into real premium reductions, though the exact amount depends on your insurer and the rest of your home’s structure. We provide the documentation your inspector and insurer need, and we register both warranty layers in writing.
We measure every opening, not just once but before the old window comes out and again after. On Greenacres CBS homes, openings are commonly 1/4 to 3/8 inch out of square from decades of ground moisture movement. Forcing a square impact window into that opening causes binding at the sash and leaks at the jamb. We shim and anchor each window properly, flash the perimeter, and run a water test before the job is closed out. A crew that skips the water test in this city is guessing. Call (561) 940-2917 for an inspection, and we will tell you exactly what condition your openings are in.
Impact windows protect the opening permanently, with laminated glass that stays in place even when struck by wind-borne debris. Hurricane shutters are a separate barrier installed before a storm, and they do nothing for daily energy performance, noise, or the fact that your non-impact windows still fog and leak. For Greenacres homeowners who are keeping their house and want to stop paying premiums on a wind mitigation report full of deficiencies, impact windows are the stronger long-term choice. Shutters can pass code, but they do not fix the underlying problem of old jalousie and aluminum frames. We can walk you through both options and give you honest numbers for your specific house.
You can replace just the glass, but on a Greenacres home with original aluminum frames, that often does not make sense. The fogged unit is a symptom of a failed seal, and the frame itself is non-impact, which means the opening still fails wind mitigation requirements and still leaves you exposed on insurance. Replacing the glass alone gives you clear glass in a frame that is still non-compliant. Full impact window replacement addresses the seal, the frame, the anchoring, and the code requirement in one job. For a straight answer on your specific windows, call (561) 940-2917. Estimates are free, and we will show you the numbers on paper.
