AfterWindows & Doors in Palm Beach, FL
Window installation in Palm Beach typically runs $650-$1,400 per opening for standard vinyl impact units, with steel casement replacements on historic Mediterranean Revival homes starting closer to $1,800 due to custom fabrication and ARCOM approval requirements. Most measured surveys in Palm Beach are completed within a week, though landmark-designated properties require additional lead time for Architectural Commission review. Call (561) 475-1246 to schedule your free measured survey - the document you keep becomes your written quote under Haven Clause 1.
We install and replace windows and doors across Palm Beach’s barrier island, from oceanfront estates along South Ocean Boulevard to Intracoastal properties near the Royal Park Bridge. The housing stock here - heavy with 1920s-1940s Addison Mizner designs - demands a different approach than the mainland: original steel casement windows, arched masonry openings, and wood entry doors that cannot accept standard replacement profiles without custom engineering. Our crews coordinate dispatch from the Miami office and serve Palm Beach locally with marine-grade hardware and documented photo records on every visit.
Why Palm Beach Homes Are Different
Palm Beach sits on a barrier island less than half a mile wide, with the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway on the west. That means salt-laden air attacks aluminum and steel frames from both elevations simultaneously - a corrosion load that inland Palm Beach County cities simply don’t experience. Marine-grade anodized or PVF2-coated frames and stainless-steel hardware aren’t upgrades here; they’re baseline requirements for any installation that will last past its warranty period.
The housing stock compounds the challenge. Much of Palm Beach was built during the 1920s-1940s Mediterranean Revival boom, with original steel casement windows, arched masonry openings, and heavy wood entry doors that are incompatible with modern hurricane-impact glazing without custom fabrication. Many properties carry Town landmark designations, and the Architectural Commission (ARCOM) requires replacement windows and doors to match original Mizner-era profiles exactly - mullion patterns, glass tint, hardware finishes, the full specification. Contractors who skip the ARCOM pre-approval step can stall a project for months; the Commission meets on a set schedule, and permits aren’t issued until historic documentation is satisfied. This dual compliance - modern Florida Building Code impact requirements married to strict historic aesthetics review - is unique to Palm Beach and doesn’t exist across the bridge in West Palm Beach.
Our Main Palm Beach Services
Most calls from Palm Beach homeowners center on two needs: replacing original windows that no longer meet hurricane codes, and upgrading entry systems for both security and ARCOM compliance.
Window Replacement in Palm Beach
Window replacement in Palm Beach almost always means impact-rated units, but the profile must satisfy ARCOM on landmark properties. We measure every opening to the nearest 1/8 inch, document the existing frame condition with photos the customer keeps, and specify either standard impact vinyl or custom steel-clad profiles depending on the property’s designation. Our crews have handled ARCOM submissions for homes along Jungle Road, El Bravo Way, and the Estate Section. Window Replacement in Palm Beach covers the full process from measured survey to final inspection.
Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Impact windows and doors are Florida Building Code requirements for all new and replacement installations in Palm Beach, but the impact rating is only half the specification. On historic properties, we source custom impact-rated units from PGT and CGI that replicate original sightlines while meeting HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) standards. The documentation package includes the impact certification, the ARCOM approval letter, and the photo record of installation. Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach details the product lines and approval workflow.
Sliding & Patio Doors in Palm Beach
Sliding and patio door replacement in Palm Beach faces the same salt-corrosion pressure as windows, with the added load of rolling hardware that seizes when stainless components are substituted for standard steel. We specify marine-grade rollers and tracks on every Palm Beach installation, with impact-rated laminated glass and thermally broken frames. Multi-panel systems on oceanfront homes often require structural header reinforcement, which we document in the measured survey and written scope before work begins. Sliding & Patio Doors in Palm Beach covers sizing, hardware, and code compliance.

Before
AfterWindow Installation in Palm Beach
Window installation in Palm Beach starts with a measured survey that accounts for the island’s unique corrosion environment and, on landmark properties, the ARCOM approval timeline. Original steel casement windows in Mizner-era homes cannot accept standard replacement inserts; the masonry openings are arched, the sightlines are narrow, and the frames are often embedded in stucco that cannot be disturbed without structural review. We specify marine-grade anodized or PVF2-coated frames with stainless-steel hardware as standard, not optional, and every installation leaves a documented photo record under Haven Clause 4 (Evidence on Every Job). Window Installation covers our full product range and survey process.
Single & Double Hung Windows
Signs you need it
Original steel or wood single hung units show corrosion at the sill, the sash cord is broken or the balance system has failed, or the window no longer locks securely against the frame.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Single and double hung impact window installation in Palm Beach typically ranges from $650 to $1,200 per opening for vinyl frames, and $1,400 to $2,200 for aluminum-clad or custom steel profiles required on landmark properties.
How we do it
We remove the existing unit, inspect the rough opening for salt damage or wood rot, install marine-grade flashing, set the new impact-rated frame with stainless fasteners, seal with UV-stable silicone, and document the installation with photos for the customer’s record.
Casement Windows
Signs you need it
The crank mechanism has seized from salt corrosion, the hinge arm is bent or detached, or the original steel frame shows through-rust that compromises the structural integrity of the unit.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Casement window replacement in Palm Beach runs $850 to $1,600 per opening for standard impact vinyl, and $1,800 to $3,200 for custom steel or aluminum-clad profiles with replicated sightlines for ARCOM approval.
How we do it
We measure the exact hinge placement and crank throw, specify a replacement unit with matching sightline dimensions, install stainless-steel hinge hardware and a marine-grade operator, test the full swing arc, and record the operational check in the photo documentation.
What Window Installation Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Single/Double Hung Vinyl Impact | $650 - $1,200 |
| Single/Double Hung Aluminum/Steel Custom | $1,400 - $2,200 |
| Casement Vinyl Impact | $850 - $1,600 |

How long does window installation take in Palm Beach?
Standard vinyl impact replacements on non-landmark homes typically complete in one to two days per project. Landmark-designated properties requiring ARCOM pre-approval add four to eight weeks to the start date, though the installation itself remains one to two days once permits issue. Call (561) 475-1246 to schedule your measured survey and we’ll confirm the timeline based on your property’s designation.
Do you handle ARCOM approval for window replacement?
We prepare the full documentation package - measured drawings, product specifications, finish samples, and historic profile comparison - and submit to the Architectural Commission on the customer’s behalf. Our crews have managed ARCOM approvals for homes throughout the Estate Section, Jungle Road, and El Bravo Way. Call (561) 475-1246 to review your property’s requirements.
Door Installation in Palm Beach
Door installation in Palm Beach must solve two problems simultaneously: hurricane-impact compliance per Florida Building Code, and on landmark properties, historic profile replication per ARCOM. Original wood entry doors in Mediterranean Revival homes are often 2-1/4 inches thick with custom millwork profiles that standard fiberglass or steel units cannot match; we source custom impact-rated doors from Therma-Tru and custom millwork shops, with laminated glass and reinforced jambs, and document every specification in the written scope before fabrication begins. Door Installation covers our full entry and patio door capabilities.
Entry Doors
Signs you need it
The door shows rot at the bottom rail, the jamb has pulled away from the framing, or the lockset no longer engages the strike plate due to frame settlement.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Entry door installation in Palm Beach ranges from $1,200 to $2,500 for standard impact-rated fiberglass or steel units, and $2,800 to $5,500 for custom wood or clad profiles with ARCOM-matching millwork and hardware finishes.
How we do it
We remove the existing door and frame, inspect the rough opening for structural integrity, install a pressure-treated or composite jamb with stainless fasteners, hang the new impact-rated door with three or more hinges, install multi-point locking hardware, and verify operation and seal before photographing the completed installation.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
Signs you need it
Your current door lacks impact-rated glass or a reinforced jamb, or your insurance inspection noted non-compliant entry protection that requires upgrade before policy renewal.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Hurricane-proof entry door systems in Palm Beach typically run $1,800 to $3,200 for fiberglass with impact glass, and $3,500 to $6,500 for custom steel or wood-clad units with full multi-point hardware and laminated glass matching original sightlines.
How we do it
We specify the door and frame assembly to HVHZ standards, submit for permit with impact certification and, on landmark properties, ARCOM documentation, install with structural anchoring per Miami-Dade NOA requirements, and provide the customer with the certification packet and photo record.
What Door Installation Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Standard Impact Entry Door (Fiberglass/Steel) | $1,200 - $2,500 |
| Custom Impact Entry Door (Wood/Clad, ARCOM) | $2,800 - $5,500 |
| Hurricane-Proof System with Impact Glass | $1,800 - $3,200 |
Can you match my historic door profile for ARCOM?
We source custom impact-rated doors from Therma-Tru and specialty millwork shops that replicate original Mediterranean Revival profiles - panel dimensions, sticking profiles, and hardware finishes - with laminated impact glass and reinforced cores. The ARCOM submission includes side-by-side photographic comparison and finish samples. Call (561) 475-1246 to schedule a measured survey and profile review.
What’s included in the door installation warranty?
Every door installation carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise under the Haven Standard - if the operation, seal, or hardware fails due to installation, we correct it at no charge - plus the manufacturer’s product warranty, which ranges from limited lifetime to 20 years depending on the line. Call (561) 475-1246 for specific warranty terms by product.
Energy-Efficient Windows in Palm Beach
Energy-efficient windows in Palm Beach reduce cooling load in a climate where air conditioning runs eight to ten months annually, but the efficiency specification must coexist with impact requirements and, on landmark properties, ARCOM aesthetic controls. We specify low-E coatings and argon gas fills from ES Windows and ECO Window Systems, with U-factors and SHGC values documented in the written quote, and we verify that the efficiency package doesn’t alter the sightline or glass tint beyond ARCOM tolerance on designated properties. Energy-Efficient Windows details the full performance specification range.
Low-E & Argon Gas Glass
Signs you need it
Your current windows transmit excessive heat, rooms facing west or south are noticeably warmer, or your energy bills spike during summer months despite thermostat settings.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Low-E with argon gas upgrade on impact windows in Palm Beach typically adds $80 to $150 per opening to the base window cost, with total installed prices from $730 to $1,350 for vinyl and $1,480 to $2,350 for custom aluminum or steel profiles.
How we do it
We specify the low-E coating type and argon fill percentage on the written quote, verify the U-factor and SHGC against your cooling load requirements, install the insulated glass unit in the impact-rated frame, and record the performance values in the documentation packet.
ENERGY STAR Replacement Windows
Signs you need it
You’re replacing windows for efficiency certification, your utility offers rebates for ENERGY STAR products, or you’re documenting performance improvements for property valuation or resale.
What it costs in Palm Beach
ENERGY STAR certified impact windows in Palm Beach range from $780 to $1,450 per opening for vinyl frames, and $1,550 to $2,600 for aluminum or custom profiles with the full efficiency package and certification documentation.
How we do it
We verify the product’s ENERGY STAR certification for South Florida climate zone, specify the exact NFRC ratings on the written quote, install per manufacturer requirements to maintain warranty and certification validity, and provide the certification labels and photo record for your files.
What Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Low-E/Argon Upgrade (add to base window) | +$80 - $150 per opening |
| Low-E/Argon Vinyl Impact Window | $730 - $1,350 |
| ENERGY STAR Vinyl Impact Window | $780 - $1,450 |
Do energy-efficient windows still meet impact codes in Palm Beach?
Yes - all windows we install in Palm Beach meet Florida Building Code impact requirements as baseline, with low-E and argon as glass package upgrades within the same impact-rated frame. The efficiency specification doesn’t compromise the structural rating. Call (561) 475-1246 to review U-factor and SHGC options for your specific exposure.
Will ENERGY STAR windows lower my cooling bills?
Properly specified ENERGY STAR windows with low-E and argon typically reduce solar heat gain by 30 to 50 percent compared to clear glass, which translates to measurable cooling load reduction in Palm Beach’s climate. The exact savings depend on exposure, shading, and your HVAC efficiency. Call (561) 475-1246 for a performance estimate based on your home’s orientation.
Impact Garage Doors in Palm Beach
Impact garage doors in Palm Beach protect the largest opening in most homes, a critical vulnerability during hurricane events that Florida Building Code addresses with specific wind-load requirements. The salt-air environment accelerates spring and track corrosion, and many Palm Beach garage doors face direct ocean exposure along South Ocean Boulevard and side streets where the Atlantic breeze carries spray across the setback. We specify wind-rated doors with marine-grade hardware, galvanized or stainless tracks, and impact-rated glazing where windows are present, with the full assembly documented in the measured survey and written scope. Impact Garage Doors covers wind-load engineering and product specifications.
Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors
Signs you need it
Your current garage door lacks a wind-load sticker, the track is rusted or pulling from the jamb, or your insurance inspection flagged non-compliant garage door protection.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Hurricane-rated garage door installation in Palm Beach ranges from $1,800 to $3,500 for standard steel sectional doors with wind-load reinforcement, and $3,200 to $5,800 for custom wood or aluminum designs with impact-rated glazing and marine-grade hardware.
How we do it
We measure the opening and calculate the design wind pressure per ASCE 7 for Palm Beach’s exposure category, specify the door and track assembly with Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval, install with structural anchoring, test the auto-reverse and wind-lock function, and document the assembly rating and installation in the photo record.
Wind-Load Code Compliance
Signs you need it
You’re replacing a garage door after a permit-triggering event, your home is in a HVHZ zone requiring documented wind-load resistance, or you’re upgrading from a non-rated door installed before current code cycles.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Wind-load code compliance upgrades in Palm Beach typically run $2,200 to $4,000 when structural reinforcement of the header or jambs is required, and $1,800 to $3,200 when the existing framing is adequate for the rated door assembly.
How we do it
We inspect the header, jambs, and attachment points for structural adequacy, engineer or specify any required reinforcement, install the wind-rated door and track with proper fasteners and bracing, schedule inspection if required, and provide the product approval documentation and photo record.
What Impact Garage Doors Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Hurricane-Rated Steel Sectional Door | $1,800 - $3,500 |
| Custom Hurricane-Rated with Impact Glazing | $3,200 - $5,800 |
| Wind-Load Compliance with Structural Reinforcement | $2,200 - $4,000 |
Does my garage door need impact-rated glass?
Garage door windows in Palm Beach must meet the same impact requirements as other openings if they’re within a certain distance of the ground or if the door faces a public way; we evaluate each opening against Florida Building Code Table 1609.1.2 and specify laminated or impact-rated glazing where required. Call (561) 475-1246 for a code review of your specific door configuration.
How long do garage door springs last in Palm Beach’s salt air?
Standard galvanized torsion springs in Palm Beach’s salt-air environment typically last 7 to 12 years, while marine-grade coated or stainless springs extend to 15 to 20 years. We specify spring coating and hardware material in the written scope based on your home’s exposure. Call (561) 475-1246 to inspect your current assembly and quote replacement with appropriate corrosion protection.
Custom & Geometric Windows in Palm Beach
Custom and geometric windows in Palm Beach are not specialty items; they’re standard requirements for the island’s historic housing stock. Original arched windows, circular attic vents, and oversized Palladian openings in Mediterranean Revival homes cannot accept rectangular replacement units, and ARCOM mandates exact profile replication on landmark properties. We measure each opening to template, fabricate custom impact-rated units from PGT, CGI, or ES Windows with replicated mullion patterns and sightlines, and manage the ARCOM submission as part of the project workflow. Custom & Geometric Windows covers the full custom fabrication and approval process.
Arched & Curved Windows
Signs you need it
Your arched window has cracked or fogged glass, the curved frame shows rot or corrosion, or the original steel casement no longer operates and standard rectangular replacements won’t fit the masonry opening.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Arched and curved window replacement in Palm Beach ranges from $2,200 to $4,500 for custom vinyl or aluminum impact units with replicated profiles, and $4,000 to $7,500 for steel-clad or historically accurate custom millwork with ARCOM-matching sightlines and hardware.
How we do it
We create a full-size template or 3D scan of the existing opening, specify the custom frame with matching radius and sightline dimensions, fabricate with impact-rated laminated glass, submit to ARCOM with profile comparison documentation if required, and install with marine-grade flashing and stainless fasteners.
Oversized Openings
Signs you need it
Your original window assembly spans multiple masonry openings with a continuous sill, the individual units have failed but the frame is integral to the structure, or you’re consolidating openings for a modernized view while preserving exterior proportions.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Oversized custom window installations in Palm Beach typically run $3,500 to $6,500 for vinyl or aluminum impact assemblies up to 8 feet, and $6,000 to $12,000 for steel-framed or multi-unit custom configurations with structural header reinforcement and ARCOM documentation.
How we do it
We engineer the structural support for the increased span, specify the custom multi-unit or single large assembly with impact ratings and U-factor documentation, coordinate any required structural permit with the window permit, install with temporary support and permanent header reinforcement, and document the full installation sequence in the photo record.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Arched/Curved Vinyl or Aluminum Custom | $2,200 - $4,500 |
| Arched/Curved Steel-Clad or Historic Custom | $4,000 - $7,500 |
| Oversized Opening (up to 8 ft, Vinyl/Aluminum) | $3,500 - $6,500 |
How long does custom window fabrication take?
Custom impact window fabrication typically requires 8 to 14 weeks from template approval, with ARCOM review adding 4 to 8 weeks on landmark-designated properties. We coordinate the approval and fabrication timelines so fabrication begins immediately after ARCOM clearance. Call (561) 475-1246 to start the measured survey and template process.
Can you replicate my original steel casement sightlines?
We specify custom steel or aluminum-clad profiles with mullion dimensions, face widths, and glass-to-frame ratios that match original 1920s-1940s steel casement sightlines, using impact-rated laminated glass and stainless hardware. The ARCOM submission includes original and proposed profile drawings with dimensional callouts. Call (561) 475-1246 to review your existing windows and specification options.
