Fast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Sunrise
If you live in a Sunrise home built between 1965 and 1988, the windows and doors you’re looking at were installed under building codes that no longer exist. Most were aluminum-frame single-pane units with hollow-core doors, and nearly all of them are decades past their rated service life. TruePane Windows & Doors has spent years replacing exactly this kind of opening. We know what your walls hide because we’ve opened thousands of them across Inverrary, Springtree, and the ranch-home streets west of University Drive. Call (863) 208-6105 to schedule a free estimate. A live person answers, day or night.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company
We’re not a franchise operation with a rotating cast of subcontractors. TruePane was founded by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler on a rule that still hangs in our shop: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule governs every custom window and door we install in Sunrise, from a single replacement sash in a Springtree condo to a full curtain wall system on a commercial storefront along Oakland Park Boulevard.
Homeowners in Sunrise who have hired us once tend to call us again when the next opening fails. They remember that our technicians measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard we put on every job. Our Done Right Promise backs it. If something isn’t done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights. No arguing.
We also understand Broward County permitting better than most. A Sunset Strip rancher with original jalousies is not the same job as a 1990s townhome off Pine Island Road. Our Custom Windows & Doors team coordinates daily with the city and the HOA boards that govern Sunrise’s many garden-condo communities. When we quote a job in Sunrise, the quote already accounts for the code requirements, the NOA documentation, and the inspection scheduling. You don’t get surprised by a permit stop halfway through the work.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Sunrise
TruePane installs, replaces, and services custom windows and doors across Sunrise, from oversized glass panels to full curtain wall systems. Four services matter most to homeowners and commercial property owners here:
Custom Shape Windows
Sunrise ranch homes often have arched, eyebrow, and geometric openings that were original to the 1970s design. Those openings are never perfectly square after 40 years of concrete creep. We don’t force a stock unit into an out-of-square rough opening. We measure, template, and order a custom shape window built to the opening as it actually sits today. If the lintel has sagged, we address that before the window goes in, because setting a new unit under a failed lintel just means you’ll replace it again in five years.

Commercial Storefront Glazing
Sunrise has a substantial commercial corridor along University Drive and Oakland Park Boulevard, with storefronts that date back to the original build-out. Cracked plate glass, failed seals, and non-compliant tempered panels are common. We handle storefront glazing for retail and office properties in Sunrise, and we handle it during business hours when that’s what the tenant needs. Our crew shows up uniformed and background-checked, and the work is quoted upfront so the property manager knows the number before we start.

Curtain Wall Systems
For mid-rise commercial buildings in Sunrise, curtain wall failures usually show up as water intrusion around the mullions or fogged insulated units scattered across the facade. We inspect the entire system, identify which lites are failing and why, and replace the affected sections with glazing that carries Miami-Dade NOA approval. We also register the manufacturer warranty layers in writing, which matters when a building owner’s insurance carrier asks for documentation after a storm.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Sunrise HOAs, particularly in Inverrary’s larger condo communities, often require architectural grilles or simulated divided lites (SDLs) to maintain uniform building appearance. We supply and install SDLs in custom configurations that match the community’s approved elevation drawings. If your HOA requires a specific pattern, we work from their documents, not from memory. That avoids the reinstall argument with a board that meets once a month and doesn’t like surprises.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. For Sunrise homeowners, PGT and CGI matter most because both manufacturers build impact-rated products specifically for the HVHZ market and carry the Miami-Dade NOA approvals that Broward County permitting requires. We quote these lines side by side on paper, with the actual model numbers and warranty durations printed out, so you can see exactly what you’re buying before any deposit changes hands. We keep common PGT and CGI replacement components in stock for faster turnaround on Sunrise service calls.
Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
After four decades of working in Sunrise, we know what fails and why. Here’s what we find most often:
- Failed waterproofing at original door thresholds. In Sunrise’s year-round humidity, wood subfloor and framing around 1970s door openings rot quietly. The damage only becomes visible once we remove the jamb for a custom door sizing, and by then the rot often extends several inches into the framing.
- Oxidized and pitted aluminum frames. Sunrise sits at the Everglades edge, and the salt-humid air here is harder on aluminum than people expect. Frames pit, sashes bind, and seals fail. When the frame itself is compromised, a sash-only retrofit is not an option. The whole unit has to come out.
- Undersized lintels over wide sliding glass doors. Inverrary’s garden condos were built with wide sliders, and many original lintels were barely adequate in 1975. Decades of concrete block movement have put them out of square. A new impact-rated slider is heavier, and setting it under a compromised lintel is a structural failure waiting to happen.
- Painted-shut jalousie windows. This is so common in Inverrary and Springtree that we budget for it. Glass louvers cracked, aluminum cranks completely seized, and the surrounding CBS opening out of square. What looks like a simple sash replacement almost always becomes a full-frame tear-out with lintel inspection. We wrote the quote that way from the start, so there’s no change-order argument later.
Pricing for Custom Windows & Doors in Sunrise, FL
Custom window pricing in Sunrise is not a mystery, and we quote it honestly. A custom shape window for a Sunrise ranch home, built and installed, typically runs $900 to $2,400 per opening depending on size, glass package, and whether the frame needs full tear-out. A full-frame impact-rated replacement in an Inverrary condo, including lintel inspection and NOA documentation, usually lands between $1,800 and $4,200 per opening. Oversized glass panels and commercial curtain wall work are quoted per project after a site visit, with written line-item pricing. Our estimates are free, and they stay fixed once you approve them. Any surprise we find behind the wall gets priced and approved in writing before we touch it. Call (863) 208-6105 for your free estimate.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Sunrise
Because the original jalousie and single-pane aluminum units were installed into CBS openings that have moved over 40-plus years. The aluminum cranks seize, the glass louvers crack, and the concrete block around the opening creeps out of square. You cannot set a new square impact-rated unit into an out-of-square opening without rebuilding the jambs. We plan for this in the quote, including lintel inspection, so the price you approve is the price you pay. Call (863) 208-6105 for an exact quote on your unit.
When Sunrise building officials review a window or door permit on a pre-1988 home, they apply current Florida Building Code to the opening, not just the unit. That can mean addressing improper flashing, undersized lintels, or non-compliant anchor spacing once the opening is exposed. We write these potential upgrades into the contract as allowances, and we price any actual findings in writing before we do the work. You’ll never get a surprise bill at the end. Call (863) 208-6105 and we’ll walk you through what your specific opening is likely to trigger.
Most Inverrary condo associations maintain approved elevation drawings that specify frame finish, grille pattern, and glass tint for any window replacement. You’re not free to substitute whatever you like, and the HOA approval process can take weeks. We work directly from the HOA’s documents, prepare the submittal package, and handle the correspondence with the board or property management firm. That keeps your project moving instead of stalling in architectural review. Call (863) 208-6105 to discuss your building’s requirements.
Sunrise sits on the inland plain at the Everglades edge, and the air here carries a combination of humidity and fine particulates that accelerates oxidation on bare or poorly finished aluminum frames. You don’t get the salt spray of a beachfront high-rise, but you get sustained moisture exposure without the coastal breeze that dries surfaces out. The result is pitting, sash binding, and seal failure that coastal units on Pompano Beach might not see for another ten years. It means more Sunrise units need full-frame replacement rather than sash-only retrofits. Call (863) 208-6105 and we’ll tell you honestly which route your frames can take.
It means the product has been tested and approved under the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standards that govern all of Broward County, including Sunrise. Any replacement window or door you permit in Sunrise must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, or the permit will not pass. We only install NOA-approved products for impact-rated applications in Sunrise, and we register the manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the job closes. Call (863) 208-6105 for a free estimate on your door, with the NOA documentation handled from the start.
The Sunrise Reality Behind the Walls
Here’s what a custom window or door quote in Sunrise actually has to account for, and what most national installers either don’t know or won’t tell you. Because Sunrise’s housing stock was built out almost entirely between 1965 and 1988 under pre-Andrew codes, nearly every custom window or door replacement in Inverrary and Springtree triggers a mandatory full-frame tear-out and lintel inspection once walls are opened. This is a scope expansion you won’t find in neighboring Plantation’s newer construction. When we open a 1970s Inverrary wall, we expect to find deteriorated flashing, undersized anchors, and concrete block that has moved. We plan for it. The quote includes the inspection. The change-order process is written into the contract before you sign. No contractor working in Sunrise should hand you a flat per-window price and pretend the code review won’t find anything. We don’t.
On a 1970s condo in Inverrary, our crew found jalousie windows painted shut for over 20 years. Glass louvers cracked, aluminum cranks seized, and the CBS openings out of square from concrete creep. We performed a full-frame tear-out with lintel inspection, rebuilt the jambs, and installed impact-rated double-hung units with Miami-Dade NOA approval, bringing the unit into HVHZ compliance before the HOA milestone inspection deadline. That’s the job. That’s what we mean by done right.
If you’re a Sunrise homeowner who has lived in the same house for twenty or thirty years, you remember the contractor who left you with a fogged seal and a door that binds in July. You’re not looking for the cheapest bid. You’re looking for the last call you’ll have to make on these openings. That’s the work TruePane does, and we’ve been doing it for years. Call (863) 208-6105 to schedule your free estimate. Dale Kessler still answers his own phone.
