Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Tequesta’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
Tequesta homeowners don’t need a sales pitch. They need a company that understands what salt air does to aluminum frames and why a 1970s jalousie window can’t be fixed with a piece of film. Our crews work in Tequesta regularly, and we’ve replaced more original single-pane sliders and corroded jalousie units in this village than we can count. The work holds up because we plan for the environment, not just the building code.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That means we measure every opening twice, register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, and stand behind the work with our Done Right Promise. No paperwork fights. No arguing. If it’s not done right, we make it right.
Tequesta sits in Palm Beach County’s coastal wind-speed zone, which means every window and exterior door we install must carry tested impact and design-pressure ratings under the Florida Building Code. Big-box replacements won’t pass. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. Background-checked, uniformed technicians do the work, and a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Tequesta
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most Tequesta homes built between 1965 and 1990 still carry original aluminum-frame single-pane windows. In this salt-laden air, those frames pit at the corners and the operating hardware binds within a decade. We replace them with impact-rated units that meet current FBC design pressure ratings, and we re-flash every jamb because the old waterproofing is usually gone. A full-home package on a typical Tequesta CBS ranch runs $18,000 to $32,000.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors on Tequesta riverfront and Intracoastal lots take a beating from multiple directions. Salt air corrodes the tracks, and original 1980s sliders rarely meet current impact standards. We install impact-rated sliders with marine-grade hardware, and a standard 8-foot replacement in Tequesta typically runs $4,500 to $8,500 depending on the opening condition and the manufacturer line you select.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors on older Tequesta homes are often the weakest point in the building envelope. A 1970s wood door with a single pane of glass won’t hold up in a storm and won’t satisfy a wind mitigation inspection. We install impact-rated entry and French doors that carry the proper design pressure ratings, with stainless hardware that won’t oxidize in the salt air. Expect $3,200 to $7,000 per opening.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the most overlooked opening in a Tequesta home. A non-rated garage door can fail under wind load and let the roof lift, even when every window on the house is impact-rated. We install and brace impact-rated garage doors for the village’s wind zone, and we document the work for your wind mitigation report. Pricing for a typical two-car impact garage door runs $4,000 to $8,000.

Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Tequesta Homes
- Salt-driven frame corrosion: The convergence of the tidal Loxahatchee River, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Atlantic wraps nearly every Tequesta home in salt-laden air from multiple compass points. Aluminum frames from the 1960s through 1980s pit at the corners, sag, and eventually seize the operating hardware.
- Seal failure on non-marine-grade units: Insulated glass units installed without marine-grade hardware develop fog between the panes within five to seven years in Tequesta. The dead air space stops blocking heat and impact, and the only real fix is replacement.
- Jalousie windows that can’t be retrofitted: A large share of Tequesta’s mid-century homes were built with jalousie louvered-glass windows. These cannot be made hurricane-rated under any current FBC-approved product approval, so any permit-triggered renovation or insurance reinspection forces a full window replacement rather than a repair.
- Failed flashing and undersized wood bucks: When we open walls on 1965 to 1990 concrete-block homes, we routinely find water-damaged wood bucks and flashing tape that has turned to powder. The opening must be reframed and re-anchored to meet current design pressure ratings before a new impact window can be set.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Tequesta, FL
A single impact window in Tequesta runs $1,400 to $3,800 installed, depending on the opening size and manufacturer line. Impact sliding glass doors run $4,500 to $8,500. A whole-home package on a typical 1,800-square-foot CBS ranch runs $18,000 to $32,000. These are real ranges from jobs we’ve completed in Tequesta, not national averages. What moves the number: the condition of the existing opening, whether reframing is required, the glass package you choose, and whether you’re replacing jalousie windows that force a full frame replacement. We write line-item quotes on paper so you see exactly where every dollar goes. Call (786) 829-6722 to schedule a free estimate.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Tequesta
Tequesta is wrapped by three bodies of water, the tidal Loxahatchee River, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Atlantic coast, so salt-laden air hits homes from multiple directions at once. That accelerates corrosion of aluminum frames, steel hardware, and insulated glass seals far faster than even a few miles inland. We see seal failure in five to seven years on units that would last fifteen years in Palm Beach Gardens. The fix is marine-grade hardware and proper flashing from the start. Call (786) 829-6722 for an exact quote on your home.
No. Jalousie louvered-glass windows cannot be made hurricane-rated under any current FBC-approved product approval. Hurricane film and shutters both require the underlying window to meet a baseline impact standard, and jalousie windows don’t. Any permit-triggered renovation or insurance reinspection in Tequesta will force a full replacement. We’ve done this conversion dozens of times, and the energy savings alone usually offset part of the cost. Call (786) 829-6722 for a free estimate.
When we pull an original window from a 1965 to 1990 Tequesta CBS home, we expect to find water-damaged wood bucks, failed flashing tape, and sometimes wiring that was routed too close to the opening. Our process is inspection first, then we write any required reframing or re-anchoring into the contract as a line item before work starts. If we find something unexpected, we price it and get your written approval before we touch it. You won’t get a surprise on the final bill. Call (786) 829-6722 to talk through what your specific home will need.
U-factor measures how well the window blocks heat transfer, and SHGC measures how much solar heat passes through the glass. On a Tequesta riverfront home, you want a low U-factor to handle the humidity-driven heat load and a low SHGC on east and west exposures to cut solar gain from the river glare. Impact-rated glass with low-E coatings and argon fill does both. We specify these numbers in writing on every quote so you can compare manufacturer lines apples to apples. Call (786) 829-6722 and we’ll walk you through it.
Tequesta insurers require a wind mitigation inspection and report, usually on the state Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection form. The inspector verifies that every opening, including the garage door, carries the proper impact or design pressure rating. We provide the product approval documents and installation records for every window and door we install so the inspection goes clean. On a recent canal-side job off Riverside Drive, the homeowner’s premium dropped by over $800 a year after we replaced original jalousie windows with impact-rated double-hungs. Call (786) 829-6722 to schedule your free estimate and get your wind mitigation documentation handled right.
