Why North Lauderdale Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
North Lauderdale isn’t a city of brand-new construction. It’s a city of original CBS block homes and townhomes that have been standing for forty, fifty, sometimes sixty years, and the windows and doors that came with them are reaching the end of their service life. Homeowners here call us because they want the work done right the first time, and they want a company that will still answer the phone if something isn’t.
We’ve worked in neighborhoods across the city, including the homes along Kimberly Boulevard near North Lauderdale’s central corridor and the townhome communities off Rock Island Road. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice before a single quote goes on paper. Dale Kessler founded TruePane on a simple rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our reputation in North Lauderdale is built on that standard, not on advertising. Homeowners who have lived in their houses for twenty years or more tend to ask around before they commit, and the answer they get is consistent: TruePane shows up when we say, quotes manufacturer lines side by side, and stands behind the work in writing.

Window Replacement
Most replacement jobs in North Lauderdale involve pulling 40-to-55-year-old aluminum frames out of CBS openings and setting new impact-rated units in their place. We handle the full scope, from old-window removal and frame inspection to stucco patch and interior caulk and trim.
Learn more about our Window Replacement in North Lauderdale.
Impact Windows & Doors
Every impact window and door in North Lauderdale falls under Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code, so impact units are the default here, not an upgrade. We quote PGT, Jeld-Wen, and Simonton impact lines side by side on paper, with the design pressure numbers printed right on the quote.
Call (727) 261-2215 to talk through which impact package fits your home and budget.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E coated, argon-filled windows cut solar heat gain in North Lauderdale’s long cooling season and reduce the strain on your air conditioner. The original single-pane units in most of these homes predate low-E technology entirely, so the efficiency jump is significant.
We’ll explain the SHGC and U-factor ratings clearly, without making you decode a spec sheet.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Many North Lauderdale homes have original sliding glass doors that have been dragging, sticking, or leaking air for years. We replace them with impact-rated sliders that operate smoothly on heavy-duty rollers and seal tight against wind-driven rain.
We also address the track and header issues that often accompany slab settlement in older CBS homes.
Glass Railing Systems
For North Lauderdale homeowners who have enclosed a patio or upgraded a pool deck, frameless glass railing systems preserve sightlines while meeting code. We install tempered glass panels with stainless hardware and provide the engineering documentation your permit application requires.
Quotes include all materials, hardware, and installation labor, itemized in writing.
Custom Windows & Doors
Not every opening in North Lauderdale is a standard size, especially in the townhome communities where original floor plans were built tight. We order custom-sized impact windows and doors, including radius and specialty shapes, and we measure every opening twice before the order goes to the manufacturer.
If it’s a custom size, we’ll tell you the lead time honestly and in writing.

Why North Lauderdale’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
North Lauderdale was built almost entirely as a planned tract community between the late 1960s and mid-1980s, which means block after block of CBS homes with the same original aluminum single-hung windows, sliding glass doors, and jalousie units. Those openings were installed before Broward County adopted the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone code, and nearly all of them fail current design-pressure requirements. This isn’t a maintenance issue. It’s a structural reality of the housing stock.
Even though North Lauderdale sits several miles inland, the city is fully inside the HVHZ. There is no inland relaxation on wind-load ratings here. Every replacement window and door must carry a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval, and we quote only products that meet that standard. Salt-laden air pushed inland from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal accelerates corrosion on the original aluminum frames, which is part of why we see frame-to-rough-opening failures on homes as young as forty years.
The Jalousie Window Problem in North Lauderdale
If your home still has jalousie windows in the bathroom, utility room, or even a bedroom, you are likely already familiar with how easily they leak air and how poorly they seal. What you may not know is that Florida property insurance carriers are now actively flagging jalousie windows as uninsurable openings during field inspections. North Lauderdale has a dense concentration of 1970s homes where jalousies were standard spec, and we handle jalousie-to-HVHZ retrofits on a regular basis here.
Swapping a jalousie for an HVHZ-rated awning or single-hung unit is not a patch job. It means reframing the rough opening, properly flashing the new unit, and matching the interior finish so the change doesn’t look like a scar on the wall. We do this work as a matter of routine in North Lauderdale, and we’ll show you how the new unit changes both your energy bill and your standing with your insurance carrier.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in North Lauderdale
Window and door pricing in North Lauderdale depends on opening count, product line, and whether the job is a full package retrofit or a targeted replacement. As a practical range, a full impact window and door package for a 1,100 to 1,600 square foot CBS home here typically runs between $14,000 and $38,000, depending on manufacturer, glass package, and structural conditions found during the opening inspection. A single impact slider replacement generally starts around $2,200 to $3,800 installed.
We give written, line-item quotes with no surprise charges added after the fact. Standing offers include a free written repair estimate, a maintenance check, and a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in North Lauderdale
Window replacement in North Lauderdale typically costs between $14,000 and $38,000 for a full-home impact package on a 1,100 to 1,600 square foot CBS home, or roughly $900 to $1,800 per opening depending on size, product line, and framing condition. The wide range reflects whether we’re pulling jalousies, addressing corroded frame connections, or working with standard block openings. Call (727) 261-2215 for an exact quote, at no charge.
Yes. North Lauderdale is fully within Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so impact-rated windows and doors with Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval are code-required for new and replacement installations, regardless of distance from the ocean. There is no inland exception available here.
Increasingly, yes. Insurance field inspectors are flagging jalousie windows as uninsurable openings on North Lauderdale’s 1970s homes, which has led many carriers to non-renew or surcharge policies until the units are replaced with HVHZ-rated windows. Replacing jalousies with impact-rated awning or single-hung units is a standard job for us in this city, and we’ll provide the product approval documentation your carrier asks for.
A full package retrofit on a typical North Lauderdale home takes between two and five working days on site, depending on the number of openings, whether jalousies are involved, and what surprises are found inside the walls once we pull the original frames. We’ll give you a written schedule before work begins, and we honor it.
Yes. We pull all required permits with the City of North Lauderdale Building Department and schedule inspections as part of every permitted job. Your quote includes permitting and inspection costs, in writing, so there’s no separate surprise charge later. Call (727) 261-2215 to talk through your project and get a free estimate.
