AfterTrusted Custom Windows & Doors for Pompano Beach Homeowners
Custom windows and doors in Pompano Beach are a different job from stock replacements, and most homeowners find that out the hard way. A true custom job means the opening is measured to the sixteenth of an inch, the glass is cut and set for your exact wall depth, and the frame is built to carry South Florida wind loads without flexing. At TruePane Windows & Doors, Dale Kessler and our crew have handled our Custom Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach since 2008, from oversized sliders in Lighthouse Point to curved-top transoms in Hillsboro Beach.
We are not a franchise operation running crews through town. We are a Pompano Beach custom windows and doors company that hires local apprentices, trains them into journeymen, and answers our own phone. If you call (863) 591-8673, a real person picks up, day or night. That matters when a custom opening has been sitting unfinished for three weeks and you want a straight answer about when the crew arrives.
Every custom window and door we install is backed by the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard. That means both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing, with durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
What Our Custom Windows & Doors Service Includes
Custom Shape Windows
A custom shape window is exactly what it sounds like: a window that is not a stock rectangle. Arches, circles, hexagons, eyebrow tops, and angled glass that follows a roofline all fall into this category. In Pompano Beach, Affordable Custom Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach, FL like ours are common on mid-century ranches in the Garden Isles neighborhood and on newer construction along the Intracoastal, where builders want a view without a square hole in the wall. We measure the rough opening in three places, cut a template from builder’s paper on site, and have the glass fabricated to that exact curvature. Then we set it square, seal it against wind-driven rain, and register the warranty before we leave.
Commercial Storefront Glazing
Commercial storefront glazing covers the aluminum-framed glass systems you see on retail shops, restaurants, and offices in Pompano Beach, from Federal Highway storefronts to the small plazas near McNab Road. These systems carry more load than residential windows because the glass itself often supports the framing. We work with property owners and business tenants who need a storefront built, reglazed, or brought up to current code after a storm. TruePane installs and services storefront systems with the same warranty registration we use on a single-family home, because a small shop owner deserves the same written promise as a large building owner.
Curtain Wall Systems
A curtain wall is the non-structural glass wall you see on commercial buildings and a few high-end residential projects in Pompano Beach. The skeleton of the building carries the weight; the curtain wall hangs off it and does the job of keeping weather out while letting light in. Curtain wall work requires a different kind of measuring: you are working with floor-to-floor deflection numbers, thermal movement joints, and wind load calculations specific to Broward County. We have done curtain wall installs and repairs along the beachfront, where salt air and hurricane requirements make the tolerances tighter than inland work. Every panel gets checked for true before it is anchored.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Architectural grilles and simulated divided lites (SDLs) are the details that make a custom window look custom. A grille is a decorative grid of bars; an SDL is a grid applied to the glass surface, inside and out, to replicate the look of true divided lites without the thermal penalty. In Pompano Beach, we see a lot of SDL interest from homeowners in older neighborhoods like Cypress Harbor and Cresthaven, where the original jalousie or louvered windows had a particular look. We match grille profiles from manufacturer catalogs and have built custom grille patterns for homeowners who want something the catalogs do not offer. The grilles are set, seated, and sealed so they do not rattle when the afternoon wind kicks up.
Oversized Glass Panels
An oversized glass panel is any piece of glass that exceeds the standard weight and dimension limits for a one-person set, typically anything over about 50 square feet or with a long dimension past 10 feet. These are not jobs for a two-person crew guessing at the lift. In Pompano Beach, Best Custom Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach, FL often feature oversized panels as rear sliders facing the water, fixed transom walls over front doors, and interior partitions in modern homes in Harbor Village and Santa Barbara Shores. We bring the right lifting gear, the right suction cups, and enough experienced hands to set the panel without scratching the frame or stressing the edge. A rushed set on an oversized panel is how you get a stress crack six months later. We do not rush.

Brands We Service for Custom Windows & Doors
We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, and we make it a point to quote side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying. If you are comparing a Jeld-Wen custom window against a Simonton option, you should see the numbers next to each other, not buried in a verbal estimate you have to remember. We walk through the differences in glass packages, frame materials, and warranty terms before you sign anything.
We have serviced hundreds of PGT units across Pompano Beach and Broward County, including their impact-rated custom lines, and we stock common OEM parts for faster service. For homeowners who want the look of a wood interior with the maintenance profile of vinyl or aluminum, Ply Gem is another line we quote regularly. Whether you have PGT, Jeld-Wen, Simonton, Ply Gem, or any other make, we can help. The brand matters less than the install, and the install is our job.
Signs You Need Custom Windows & Doors Right Now
- Your standard-size window will not fit the opening. Older Pompano Beach homes, especially those built before the 1980s, were often framed to odd dimensions that do not match modern stock sizes. If a contractor tells you to reframe the opening to fit the window, that contractor is selling you what is convenient for them, not what is right for your house. A custom window sized to the existing opening almost always costs less than reframing around a stock window.
- You are staring at a fogged or failed seal on a shaped window. Arched and angled windows fail just like rectangles, but replacing them is not as simple as pulling a stock unit from a warehouse. When a custom shape window fogs, the glass unit has to be built to the same curvature. Waiting on it does not fix it, and the longer moisture sits between the panes, the more likely you are to see staining inside the frame.
- Your patio door binds in July. South Florida heat and humidity cause aluminum, vinyl, and even wood to expand and contract through the year. A door that slides fine in January and binds in July is a sign the original install was off by a fraction or the frame has shifted over time. A custom door system sized and set for your actual wall opening fixes the binding permanently, rather than forcing the door through its own frame season after season.
- You are replacing windows near the coast and need impact ratings. Pompano Beach sits inside the Miami-Dade and Broward County high-velocity hurricane zones. Custom windows and doors near the water have to be impact-rated, and the rating has to be backed by paperwork that matches the product installed. A custom impact window from PGT or another approved manufacturer is not the same as a standard window with a film applied afterward. We pull the product approval documents and leave that paperwork with you.
- Your current windows were installed by someone who never came back. If the original installer will not answer the phone for a warranty call, that is a signal about the entire install. We hear this story often in Pompano Beach, especially from homeowners who bought a house with “new windows” listed in the listing description. A TruePane install comes with both warranty layers registered in writing and a 90-day workmanship promise with our name on it. We have been here years and we plan to keep answering the phone.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Process - Step by Step
- 1
The on-site measure. We do not measure from satellite photos or a manufacturer’s rough guess. A technician comes to your Pompano Beach home and measures every opening twice, checking for square, plumb, and flatness. We use laser measuring tools for long runs and curtain wall work, and we write down the numbers on paper. If the opening is out of square, we tell you then, not after the window arrives.
- 2
The side-by-side quote. We bring manufacturer lines side by side on paper, with the actual model names and the actual warranty durations written out. You see the difference between a Jeld-Wen option and a PGT option before you pick either one. The quote is fixed, not an estimate that arrives by email later. If you want to change the glass package or the grille profile, that happens before the order goes to the shop, not after we are on site.
- 3
The fabrication order. Once you approve the quote, we place the order with the manufacturer and stay on top of lead times. Custom shaped windows and oversized glass panels take longer than stock units, and a good shop tells you that up front rather than promising the world and then going quiet. We give you a written schedule and call if the schedule moves.
- 4
The install. Background-checked, uniformed technicians arrive in a marked TruePane truck. We lay down drop cloths inside, remove the old unit carefully, and set the new one square and true. For oversized glass and curtain wall work, we bring a full crew so the panel is not manhandled by two tired guys at the end of a long day. We seal against water and air, set the doors to swing or slide without binding, and walk you through the finished work before we leave.
- 5
The warranty registration and follow-up. Before the truck leaves your driveway, both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing with the durations stated. You get a copy, we keep a copy, and the manufacturer has a copy. If anything is not right, the Done Right Promise means we make it right, no paperwork fight and no arguing about who is responsible. That is the TruePane standard on every custom window and door we install in Pompano Beach.

How Much Does Custom Windows & Doors Cost in Pompano Beach?
A typical custom shape window in Pompano Beach runs $900 to $2,800 per unit, depending on the glass package, frame material, and whether the unit carries an impact rating. Custom patio doors, especially oversized sliders, typically land between $3,500 and $9,000 installed, with the spread driven by glass type, frame finish, and the structural work required at the opening. Commercial storefront glazing is priced per linear foot of storefront, and that number moves with the height of the glass, the wind load requirements in your part of Pompano Beach, and whether the system is new construction or a rebuild of an existing storefront. You will not get an honest square-foot number from us over the phone without seeing the opening, and you should not trust one from a contractor who has never measured the job.
What drives the cost: the glass package, first. Impact-rated laminated glass costs more than standard annealed or tempered glass, and in Pompano Beach you are almost certainly in an impact zone. The frame material matters too. Vinyl, aluminum, and wood all have different installed costs and different lifespans near salt air. Then there is the scope of the opening. A simple rectangle is less expensive than an arch, and an arch is less expensive than a custom curtain wall. Finally, what the install crew has to fix matters. If the original opening was framed out of square, correcting that costs money, and we will tell you that before we touch it.
The way to avoid overpaying on custom windows and doors in Pompano Beach is simple: get a written quote that lists the exact window models, the exact glass packages, and the exact warranty durations. Do not accept a verbal price. Do not accept an estimate that says “custom window, installed” with no further detail. A free estimate from TruePane includes the full breakdown on paper, and you keep the copy whether you hire us or not. Call (863) 591-8673 to schedule yours.

Frequently Asked Questions - Custom Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach
A custom window or door is built to the exact dimensions and shape of your existing opening, rather than pulled from stock inventory and forced to fit. That includes custom shape windows like arches and circles, oversized glass panels over 50 square feet, commercial storefront glazing, and curtain wall systems. In Pompano Beach, many older homes have non-standard openings that stock units simply do not match. For more on what we install and how it works, see our custom windows and doors page. If you are still not sure whether your job counts as custom or stock, call (863) 591-8673 and describe what you are looking at. We will tell you straight.
Most single-unit custom window or door installs in Pompano Beach are completed in one day, including the removal of the old unit and the clean up afterward. Custom shape windows and oversized glass panels can take longer because the glass itself is fabricated to order, which often means a lead time of two to six weeks from the manufacturer before the install day. We give you a written schedule before you sign, and we call if that schedule moves. The install itself is not the long part. The fabrication is.
Custom shape windows typically run $900 to $2,800 per unit, custom patio doors land between $3,500 and $9,000 installed, and commercial storefront glazing is quoted per linear foot after an on-site measure. Impact-rated glass and oversized panels push costs higher, and a window that has to be fabricated to an exact curvature costs more than a square one. The only way to get an exact number is to have us measure the opening, which we do for free. Call (863) 591-8673 or visit our home service page to set up an estimate. The quote is in writing, and it is the number we stand behind.
Yes. We are an authorized installer for PGT and service their full custom and impact-rated lines across Pompano Beach and the rest of Broward County. We have handled hundreds of PGT units, including their custom shape and oversized impact windows, and we stock common OEM parts so repairs move faster. If you have a PGT window or door that was installed by another company and needs service, we can look at it. If you are comparing PGT against another manufacturer, we quote the lines side by side on paper so you can see the numbers and the warranty terms together.
A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights and weekends. If a custom window or door has been damaged, broken, or left unsecured, call (863) 591-8673 and tell us what happened. We can often get a technician out the same day to board up, secure the opening, or make a temporary repair. The permanent fix comes after the temporary one, and we will give you a written plan for both. No voicemail tree and no waiting for a call back.
Every custom window and door we install carries both manufacturer warranty layers, registered in writing with the durations stated before our truck leaves your driveway. On top of that, we back every job with the Done Right Promise: if the work is not done right, we make it right, with no paperwork fight and no fine print. That is The Keystone Standard, and it applies to a $900 custom shape window the same way it applies to a full curtain wall system. The warranty is not a phone call you dread making.
Clear a path from the entry door to the work area, move furniture and wall hangings at least six feet away from the opening, and remove any window treatments that will be in the way before our technicians arrive. If you have a security system with sensors on the windows or doors being replaced, let us know ahead of time so we can work around them. We lay down drop cloths and clean up the work area at the end of every job. Beyond that, you do not need to do much. The prep work is our job.
