AfterWindows & Doors in Palm Beach, FL
Window installation in Palm Beach typically runs $800-$2,400 per opening for standard impact-rated units, with custom Mizner-era fabrications starting near $3,200. Most Palm Beach projects require Town Architectural Commission (ARCOM) approval before work begins, adding 4-6 weeks to a timeline that mainland crews rarely account for. We’re Sightline Windows & Doors, and our Window Installation crews measure every opening to the documented photo record standard, then hand you the written price before a tool is lifted. Call (772) 362-5402 to schedule your free estimate.
Why Palm Beach Homes Are Different
Palm Beach sits on a narrow barrier island with Atlantic exposure to the east and the Intracoastal Waterway to the west, bathing every structure in salt air from two directions. This accelerates corrosion of aluminum frames, hinges, locks, and threshold hardware far faster than inland South Florida communities, making marine-grade finishes and hardware replacement a recurring necessity rather than a one-time fix.
The island’s residential stock is dominated by 1920s-1940s Mediterranean Revival and Spanish Colonial estates with stucco-over-masonry construction, arched fenestration, wrought-iron hardware, and bespoke door surrounds. Almost none accept off-the-shelf impact units. On oceanfront estates along South Ocean Boulevard, we regularly find original Mizner-period casement and French door hardware corroded into the masonry surrounds, making removal without cracking historic stucco profiles a skilled-labor challenge that adds significant time and cost.
The Town Architectural Commission requires approval for exterior modifications, including window and door replacements, on landmark-designated Addison Mizner-era properties. Contractors must engineer Florida Building Code-compliant impact-resistant units, custom-fabricate them to match arched and non-standard openings, then clear a historic preservation review that does not exist elsewhere in the county.
Our Main Palm Beach Services
Most Palm Beach homeowners who call us start with one of these three projects.
Window Replacement in Palm Beach
Replacing windows in Palm Beach means matching impact-rated performance to historic profiles that ARCOM will approve. We measure every opening to the documented photo record, specify marine-grade hardware for salt-air resistance, and fabricate custom units when standard sizes won’t clear the stucco arches. Our written quote reflects the measured survey you keep, with no change orders once work starts. Window Replacement in Palm Beach
Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Palm Beach’s location on the Atlantic hurricane corridor makes impact-rated products mandatory under Florida Building Code, but the island’s historic fabric demands more than standard Miami-Dade approvals. We specify PGT and CGI lines engineered for large-format openings common in estate construction, with custom glazing to preserve sightlines through Mizner-era arched frames. Every unit carries the documented photo record and 365-Day Done Right Promise. Impact Windows & Doors in Palm Beach
Sliding & Patio Doors in Palm Beach
Patio door replacement in Palm Beach faces the same salt-air corrosion that attacks window hardware, plus the added load of track systems exposed to wind-driven sand and moisture. We specify marine-grade rollers and thresholds, measure existing openings to preserve floor transitions, and fabricate custom widths when original 1940s door configurations don’t match current stock sizes.

AfterWindow Installation in Palm Beach
Window installation in Palm Beach begins with a reality most mainland crews miss: the 1920s-1940s Mediterranean Revival estates that define this island were built with stucco-over-masonry walls, arched fenestration, and wrought-iron hardware that no manufacturer catalogs as standard. We regularly measure openings on South Ocean Boulevard where original casement hardware has corroded into the masonry surround, requiring careful extraction to preserve historic stucco profiles that ARCOM will inspect. Our Window Installation process starts with the measured survey you keep, specifies marine-grade finishes for salt-air resistance, and ends with a documented photo record and written price that matches the original quote.
Casement Windows
Signs you need it
Original Mizner-era casement hardware is frozen or corroded into the jamb, or the crank mechanism has failed from salt-air exposure.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Custom impact-rated casement windows in Palm Beach typically range from $1,400 to $3,200 per opening, with arched or non-rectangular fabrications starting at $2,800.
How we do it
We document the existing frame and hardware condition, remove corroded components without cracking stucco profiles, install marine-grade hinges and operators, then seal with backer rod and sealant rated for coastal exposure.
3-Panel Sliding (3-Lite Roller) Windows
Signs you need it
Large living-room openings facing the Atlantic or Intracoastal have failing rollers, corroded tracks, or frames that no longer seal against wind-driven rain.
What it costs in Palm Beach
3-panel sliding impact windows in Palm Beach typically range from $2,200 to $4,800 per opening, with oversize estate configurations exceeding $5,500.
How we do it
We measure the rough opening and sightline requirements, specify PGT or CGI impact-rated 3-lite systems with marine-grade rollers, install with continuous sill pan flashing, then document the completed seal and operation.
What Window Installation Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Single or double hung impact window | $800 - $1,800 |
| Casement or awning impact window | $1,400 - $3,200 |
| 3-panel sliding impact window | $2,200 - $4,800 |
Do I need ARCOM approval before replacing windows in Palm Beach?
Yes, if your property is in a historic or landmark district, which covers most of the island’s Addison Mizner-era estates. We submit the required documentation, including product specifications and elevation drawings, as part of our measured survey process. Call (772) 362-5402 and we’ll verify your property’s status during the initial site visit.
How long does window installation take in Palm Beach?
Standard installations take 1-2 days per opening once materials arrive, but ARCOM review adds 4-6 weeks before work can begin. We schedule the survey and submit approvals immediately so the timeline starts moving. Call (772) 362-5402 to begin the process.
Door Installation in Palm Beach
Door installation in Palm Beach means replacing units that have spent ninety years absorbing salt air from two directions while supporting wrought-iron hardware that no modern catalog stocks. The original entry doors on Mediterranean Revival estates were built to bespoke dimensions with decorative surrounds that ARCOM reviews for any modification, making off-the-shelf Therma-Tru or ViewLux units a starting point rather than a solution. Our Door Installation crews measure the existing frame, jamb, and hardware anchoring, then specify custom fabrication when standard sizes won’t preserve the historic profile.
Entry Doors
Signs you need it
The door slab is delaminating, the jamb is rotted at the sill from wind-driven rain, or the original wrought-iron hardware has corroded beyond operation.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Custom entry door installation in Palm Beach typically ranges from $2,800 to $6,500, with historic-profile reproductions and marine-grade hardware exceeding $7,200.
How we do it
We document the existing surround and hardware locations, fabricate a unit to match the original sightlines and ARCOM requirements, install with composite or marine-treated jamb components, then record the completed assembly.
French & Double Doors
Signs you need it
Active-leaf sag has broken the weatherstrip seal, or corrosion has fused the multipoint lock hardware to the stile.
What it costs in Palm Beach
French and double door installation in Palm Beach typically ranges from $3,200 to $7,800, with impact-rated custom widths and transoms above $8,500.
How we do it
We measure both leaves for square and plumb, specify impact-rated units with adjustable hinges for salt-air environments, install with continuous sill pan and head flashing, then adjust multipoint hardware for proper compression.
What Door Installation Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Standard entry door replacement | $2,800 - $6,500 |
| French or double door set | $3,200 - $7,800 |
| Historic-profile custom fabrication | $6,500 - $12,000 |
Can you match my original Mizner-era door profile?
Yes, we regularly fabricate custom profiles to ARCOM standards, working from the measured survey and documented photo record of your existing unit. The written quote includes the custom shop drawings for approval. Call (772) 362-5402 to schedule measurement.
Do you replace corroded wrought-iron hardware?
We specify marine-grade stainless or bronze reproduction hardware rated for coastal exposure, installed with proper isolation from aluminum frames to prevent galvanic corrosion. Call (772) 362-5402 for a written quote on hardware replacement.
Energy-Efficient Windows in Palm Beach
Energy-efficient windows in Palm Beach face a climate paradox: the same Atlantic exposure that demands impact-rated laminated glass also drives cooling loads that low-E coatings and argon fills are designed to reduce. The 1920s-1940s estates we work on were built with single-pane casements and no insulation; their stucco mass helps, but the original glazing is a thermal liability that modern Florida Energy Code recognizes. Our Energy-Efficient Windows specifications balance SHGC targets for south- and west-facing openings against the impact requirements that hurricane-zone codes mandate.
Low-E & Argon Gas Glass
Signs you need it
Rooms with direct Atlantic or Intracoastal exposure are consistently 8-12 degrees warmer than interior spaces, or your utility bills spike May through October.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Low-E and argon gas upgrade in Palm Beach typically adds $180-$340 per opening to base impact window pricing, with high-performance triple-silver coatings at the upper end.
How we do it
We calculate orientation-specific SHGC and U-factor targets, specify PGT or ES Windows lines with the appropriate low-E coating, verify argon fill at delivery, then document performance values on the completed installation record.
Insulated Laminated Glass
Signs you need it
You need both hurricane impact protection and thermal performance improvement, but your existing frames cannot accommodate triple-pane thickness.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Insulated laminated glass units in Palm Beach typically range from $1,200 to $2,800 per opening, depending on size and interlayer specification.
How we do it
We measure existing frame depth to confirm insulated unit compatibility, specify laminated glass with warm-edge spacers, install with proper edge clearance for coastal thermal cycling, then record unit performance ratings.
What Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Low-E/argon upgrade (add to base window) | $180 - $340 |
| Insulated laminated glass unit | $1,200 - $2,800 |
| Full ENERGY STAR impact window replacement | $1,400 - $3,600 |
Will energy-efficient windows lower my cooling costs in Palm Beach?
Yes, properly specified low-E units with SHGC below 0.25 typically reduce cooling load 15-25% on south- and west-facing openings, with documented performance values provided on every quote. Call (772) 362-5402 for a load analysis based on your orientation.
Do energy-efficient windows still meet Florida impact requirements?
All our energy-efficient specifications are impact-rated to Miami-Dade and Florida Building Code standards; the low-E coating and argon fill are added to laminated impact glass, not substituted for it. Call (772) 362-5402 to review the specific ratings.
Impact Garage Doors in Palm Beach
Impact garage doors in Palm Beach protect the largest opening in most estate homes, a vulnerability that hurricane codes address with wind-load ratings but that salt-air corrosion attacks at the spring system, track hardware, and panel edges. The original carriage-style doors on 1920s-1940s Mediterranean Revival garages were wood or hollow metal, neither of which meets current code; replacement requires engineering for wind-borne debris while accommodating openings that often exceed standard residential widths. Our Impact Garage Doors specifications include marine-grade torsion hardware and track systems rated for the coastal environment.
Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors
Signs you need it
Your existing garage door lacks a Miami-Dade notice of acceptance, or the panel sections show corrosion at the edges from salt-air exposure.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Hurricane-rated garage door installation in Palm Beach typically ranges from $2,800 to $6,500 for standard double-car openings, with custom carriage-house profiles exceeding $8,200.
How we do it
We measure the opening for wind-load zone requirements, specify impact-rated sections with reinforced struts, install marine-grade torsion springs and hardware, then document the completed assembly and operation.
Wind-Load Code Compliance
Signs you need it
Your home inspection flagged the garage door as non-compliant, or you’re replacing a door that failed during a previous storm event.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Wind-load code compliance upgrades in Palm Beach typically range from $1,800 to $4,200 when the existing track and spring system can be retained, or $3,400-$7,500 for full replacement.
How we do it
We verify the design pressure rating for your Palm Beach wind zone, engineer the attachment to the structure per Florida Building Code, install with proper header reinforcement, then provide the documentation for inspection.
What Impact Garage Doors Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Single-car hurricane-rated door | $1,800 - $3,800 |
| Double-car hurricane-rated door | $2,800 - $6,500 |
| Custom carriage-house impact door | $5,500 - $12,000 |
Do I need a permit to replace my garage door in Palm Beach?
Yes, garage door replacement requires a building permit in Palm Beach, and impact-rated units must be installed by a licensed contractor with proper wind-load documentation. We pull the permit and schedule inspection as part of our standard scope. Call (772) 362-5402 to confirm your opening’s requirements.
How long do garage door springs last in Palm Beach’s salt air?
Standard torsion springs typically last 7-12 years in Palm Beach’s coastal environment; we specify marine-grade coated springs and annual hardware inspection to maximize service life. Call (772) 362-5402 to schedule maintenance or replacement.
Custom & Geometric Windows in Palm Beach
Custom and geometric windows in Palm Beach are not a specialty service here; they are the default condition. The Addison Mizner-era Mediterranean Revival estates that define this island were built with arched, circular, and grouped fenestration that no stock catalog addresses, and ARCOM review requires that replacements match the original sightlines. We regularly measure openings where the stucco arch is structural, not applied, meaning the replacement unit must be fabricated to a radius that matches masonry curvature. Our Custom & Geometric Windows process begins with a measured survey that documents every radius, chord, and sightline, then specifies fabrication from PGT, CGI, or ViewLux custom programs.
Arched & Curved Windows
Signs you need it
Your arched window has cracked glazing, failed seals, or corroded hardware, and the original radius must be matched for ARCOM approval.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Arched and curved custom windows in Palm Beach typically range from $2,400 to $5,800 per opening, with compound curves or segmented arches exceeding $7,200.
How we do it
We measure the radius at three points, document the stucco profile and sightline, specify custom fabrication with impact-rated laminated glass, then install with flexible flashing to accommodate the curved sill.
Oversized Openings
Signs you need it
Your living room or loggia has a grouped window assembly exceeding 96 inches in width, with individual units that must operate independently for code egress.
What it costs in Palm Beach
Oversized custom window assemblies in Palm Beach typically range from $4,200 to $11,000, depending on the number of lites, operation type, and structural support requirements.
How we do it
We engineer the header support for combined wind loads, specify mullion reinforcement and marine-grade fasteners, install with continuous sill and head flashing, then document the assembly for the final photo record.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Palm Beach
| Item | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Arched or curved custom window | $2,400 - $5,800 |
| Geometric shaped window (circle, octagon) | $1,800 - $4,200 |
| Oversized multi-lite assembly | $4,200 - $11,000 |
How long does custom window fabrication take for Palm Beach?
Custom impact-rated units typically require 8-14 weeks from measured survey to delivery, with ARCOM review running concurrently; we submit drawings immediately after measurement to keep both timelines moving. Call (772) 362-5402 to start the survey and documentation process.
Can you replicate my original Mizner window sightlines?
Yes, we document the existing sightline, muntin pattern, and stucco integration, then specify custom fabrication to match; the shop drawings are submitted with your ARCOM application. Call (772) 362-5402 to schedule the measured survey.
