AfterWindows & Doors in Delray Beach, FL
Window installation in Delray Beach usually means pulling original aluminum single-pane sliders and jalousie units out of 1960s-1980s CBS condo buildings and replacing them with Florida Product Approved systems rated for Palm Beach County’s high-velocity wind zone. The work is shaped by salt corrosion along A1A, HOA milestones in Kings Point and similar 55+ enclaves, and a historic district downtown that layers preservation review on top of every permit. Call (509) 265-6387 if you want a written price before any tool is lifted.
Why Delray Beach Homes Are Different
Delray Beach’s housing stock runs on two tracks: concrete block condos and garden homes built between the 1960s and 1980s west of Federal Highway, and a thinner corridor of older oceanfront buildings along A1A. The west-side stock, especially inside large 55+ communities like Kings Point, still carries the original fenestration: jalousie windows, single-pane aluminum sliders, louvered exterior doors. None of those openings meet current impact-rated product approval requirements, and Florida’s post-Surfside milestone inspection and structural reserve laws are now pushing HOAs to commission building-wide replacement projects on a schedule, not a whim.
The A1A corridor has its own problem. Salt-laden air off the Atlantic accelerates aluminum-frame corrosion and seal failure on a cycle that runs noticeably faster than even 20 miles inland. You see frame oxidation at the weep holes, pitting on the sill tracks, and glass units fogging between panes years before their time. Add the historic district layer in Old School Square, where impact-glass upgrades must use historically compatible frame profiles that get city preservation sign-off before permits issue, and Delray Beach becomes a market where generic window contractors from Boca Raton or Boynton Beach get caught flat-footed.
Our Main Delray Beach Services
The two calls we take most often from Delray Beach homeowners are full window replacement projects on aging condo stock, and door installations tied to HOA wind-mitigation deadlines. Each has its own dedicated Delray Beach page with the detail you need before you pick up the phone.
Door Installation in Delray Beach
Door work in Delray Beach splits between entry doors on CBS condo buildings and patio-facing openings where original hollow-core units have swollen, sagged, or lost their latching geometry in the humid salt air. HOA wind-mitigation inspections often flag exterior doors that cannot carry an impact-rating label, which makes replacement a compliance issue before it is a comfort one. We measure the rough opening, document the existing frame condition with photos, and price the full replacement including any threshold and casing work. Door Installation in Delray Beach covers the job in detail.
Window Replacement in Delray Beach
Replacement windows here mean matching new impact-rated systems to concrete block openings that have moved since 1975, which changes how you flash, shim, and finish every perimeter. We see original jalousie and aluminum slider units that have outlived their seal life by a decade, and owners who want the upgrade done once with a written scope they can take to their HOA board. Window Replacement in Delray Beach walks through pricing, product selection, and the permit path for your building type.

BeforeAfterWindow Installation in Delray Beach
Window installation in Delray Beach is, more often than not, a retrofit on concrete block: aluminum single-pane sliders and jalousie units come out, and Florida Product Approved impact-rated or energy-rated systems go in, with new perimeter flashing cut to openings that have not been square since the building was poured. The salt air off the Atlantic means we inspect the existing frame anchoring more carefully here than inland crews would, because corrosion at the fasteners changes how the new unit must be secured. This is the work we have done on more than 18,000 openings since 2012, always with a written price issued before any work begins. See our full Window Installation service page for the manufacturer-by-performance-tier breakdown.
Single & Double Hung Windows
Signs you need it
Sashes that bind in the frame, weights or balances that no longer hold the sash up, and condensation between glass panes are the common failure signs on older hung windows.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Single and double hung window replacement in Delray Beach typically runs $600-$1,800 per opening, with impact-rated versions at the higher end of that range.
How we do it
We measure the existing opening, remove the old sash and frame, reset the new hung unit with level and shim, flash it to the block, and trim the interior and exterior back to finished condition.
Horizontal Roller Windows
Signs you need it
Rollers that grind or seize in the track, frames that have oxidized at the sill, and glass that no longer seals against the weather stripping are the telltale signs on horizontal roller units.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Horizontal roller window replacement in Delray Beach generally lands between $550 and $1,600 per opening, depending on size and whether you need impact glass.
How we do it
We pull the old frame, inspect the concrete opening for spalling or corrosion damage, set the new roller window on fresh track and sill packing, and re-flash before trimming out both sides.
Casement Windows
Signs you need it
Crank mechanisms that slip, hinges that have sagged so the sash no longer seats flush, and frame rot or corrosion at the corner joints are the typical failures.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Casement window installation in Delray Beach runs from $700 to $2,000 per opening, with multi-point locking hardware and impact glazing pushing toward the top.
How we do it
We square the rough opening, set the new casement unit with temporary shims, verify the sash closes tight against the weather seal, then flash, caulk, and trim to match the building.
Awning & Hopper Windows
Signs you need it
Awning and hopper failures show up as hinges that have pulled from the frame, glass that will not fully close, and water staining beneath the sill on the interior.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Awning and hopper window replacement in Delray Beach typically costs between $500 and $1,500 per opening, with custom sizing pushing higher.
How we do it
We remove the old operator hardware, install the new unit on fresh sill flashing, test the open-close cycle, and finish the opening to a clean interior and exterior line.
What Window Installation Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Single & Double Hung Windows | $600-$1,800 per opening |
| Horizontal Roller Windows | $550-$1,600 per opening |
| Casement Windows | $700-$2,000 per opening |
Do I need a permit to replace windows in Delray Beach?
Yes. Replacement windows in Delray Beach require a Palm Beach County permit, and in the Old School Square Historic District, city preservation sign-off comes first. We handle the permit package and coordinate inspections.
How long does window installation take in Delray Beach?
Most window installation projects in Delray Beach run one to three days once the units arrive, depending on the number of openings and the condition of the existing frames. Call (509) 265-6387 to get a written scope for your building.
Impact Windows & Doors in Delray Beach
Impact windows and doors in Delray Beach are not optional extras; they are the building-code baseline. Every replacement opening in this part of Palm Beach County must carry Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA equivalency, and the condo stock west of Federal Highway is full of jalousie and aluminum slider openings that cannot meet the standard. The post-Surfside milestone inspection rules are now forcing many Kings Point and similar 55+ communities to replace whole buildings of windows at once. Our Impact Windows & Doors hub explains the product categories and the testing standards in plain terms.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Signs you need it
If your windows are original to a 1960s-1980s building, they almost certainly lack a product approval label, which a wind-mitigation inspection will flag immediately.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Hurricane impact window installation in Delray Beach typically ranges from $700 to $2,200 per opening, depending on size, glass package, and frame material.
How we do it
We verify the product approval number against the opening size, pull the old unit, set the new impact window on fresh flashing, and document the installation with photos at every step.
Single Hung Impact Windows
Signs you need it
A lower sash that will not stay up, cracked glass, or a frame that has pulled away from the block at the corners are the signs you need a single hung impact replacement.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Single hung impact windows in Delray Beach run between $650 and $1,900 per opening, with larger sizes and higher design pressures at the top of the range.
How we do it
We remove the existing sash and frame, reset the new impact-rated single hung into a squared opening, flash it to the block, and verify the DP (design pressure) rating matches Palm Beach County requirements.
Horizontal Roller & Sliding Impact Windows
Signs you need it
Horizontal impact sliders show the same failures as standard rollers: track corrosion, seized rollers, and failed seals that fog the glass from inside the unit.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Horizontal roller and sliding impact windows in Delray Beach typically cost $700 to $2,000 per opening, where an oversized three-lite slider can push beyond the top figure.
How we do it
We set the new impact slider on a level track, re-flash the full perimeter, and test the interlocking sashes to confirm they meet the labeled wind-load rating for this zone.
What Impact Windows & Doors Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Hurricane Impact Windows | $700-$2,200 per opening |
| Single Hung Impact Windows | $650-$1,900 per opening |
| Horizontal Roller & Sliding Impact Windows | $700-$2,000 per opening |
Will impact windows satisfy my HOA’s wind-mitigation requirement in Delray Beach?
Yes, a properly labeled Florida Product Approved impact window satisfies wind-mitigation requirements. We provide the product approval documentation your HOA or inspector needs. Call (509) 265-6387 for the written scope.
Can impact windows be installed one floor at a time in a condo building?
Yes. We stage multi-unit projects floor by floor to keep common areas usable, and each unit receives its own measured survey and written price under the Haven Standard.
Energy-Efficient Windows in Delray Beach
Energy-efficient windows in Delray Beach are about cutting cooling load on buildings where the sun works the west and east elevations all afternoon, and where original single-pane glass does almost nothing to slow heat transfer. A low-E package with the right U-factor and SHGC for this latitude changes an air-conditioned unit’s energy profile more than any other single replacement you can make, especially in the 55+ condo stock where windows outnumber wall space on some elevations. See our Energy-Efficient Windows page for the full glass-package breakdown.
Low-E & Argon Gas Glass
Signs you need it
A window that feels warm to the touch on a summer afternoon, or an AC bill that climbs every year while the unit itself isn’t changing, points to glass with no thermal coating.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Low-E with argon gas glass in Delray Beach adds roughly $150 to $350 per opening over standard clear glass, depending on the coating and gas fill selected.
How we do it
We spec the glass package by orientation: lower SHGC on east and west elevations, balanced U-factor throughout, and argon fill where condensation risk is highest near the coast.
Insulated Laminated Glass
Signs you need it
Condensation between panes, visible seal failure at the edges, and audible outside noise through a closed window are the signs that old non-laminated glass has failed.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Insulated laminated glass in Delray Beach typically runs $500 to $1,700 per opening as part of a full window replacement, with impact-rated laminates at the higher range.
How we do it
We replace the entire unit, not just the glass, because the seal, the frame, and the insulated glass assembly work as one system that cannot be patched back to performance.
What Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Low-E & Argon Gas Glass | $150-$350 per opening (glass upgrade) |
| Insulated Laminated Glass | $500-$1,700 per opening (full replacement) |
| ENERGY STAR Replacement Windows | $600-$1,800 per opening |
What U-factor and SHGC should I target in Delray Beach?
For Delray Beach, ENERGY STAR’s southern zone calls for a U-factor of 0.40 or lower and an SHGC of 0.25 or lower on most elevations. We spec glass package by orientation and glazing type.
Will energy-efficient windows also meet impact code in Delray Beach?
They can, if you order them with an impact-rated laminate. The two requirements are independent, so we always verify the product approval label before ordering. Call (509) 265-6387 for the written quote.
Sliding & Patio Doors in Delray Beach
Sliding and patio doors in Delray Beach take the brunt of the salt air, especially in the oceanfront condo corridor along A1A where aluminum tracks and rollers corrode quickly. Original sliders from the 1970s and 1980s have no impact rating, poor thermal performance, and hardware that has been fighting the humidity for decades. HOA wind-mitigation requirements often make patio door replacement a compliance item, not just a comfort upgrade. Our Sliding & Patio Doors hub covers the full category, including impact-rated sliders and French door configuration options.
Sliding Glass Door Replacement
Signs you need it
A door that drags or seizes on the track, glass that fogs between panes, and a locking mechanism that no longer aligns after years of settling are the signs it is time to replace the slider.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Sliding glass door replacement in Delray Beach typically runs $2,500 to $5,500 for a standard 6-foot opening, with impact-rated units at the top of that range.
How we do it
We pull the old door, level and square the rough opening, set the new slider on fresh sill flashing, and adjust the rollers and lock to seat cleanly before trimming both sides.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Signs you need it
If your existing slider has no Florida Product Approval label, any HOA wind-mitigation inspection will require replacement, regardless of how well the door still operates.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Impact sliding glass doors in Delray Beach run from $3,000 to $7,000 per opening, with larger three-panel configurations and higher design pressures pushing beyond.
How we do it
We spec the impact-rated slider to the exact opening dimensions, verify the product approval number matches, set the door on a level track, and photograph the full installation.
What Sliding & Patio Doors Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Sliding Glass Door Replacement | $2,500-$5,500 per opening |
| Impact Sliding Glass Doors | $3,000-$7,000 per opening |
| Impact French Patio Doors | $3,500-$8,000 per opening |
Can you replace just the sliding door panel or does the whole frame go?
We recommend replacing the full frame and track assembly. A new panel in an old, corroded frame will not seal or slide correctly, and it will not carry the product approval label your HOA needs.
Do patio doors in Delray Beach need a permit?
Yes, patio door replacement requires a Palm Beach County permit, and historic district properties in Old School Square need additional city review before the permit issues. We prepare and file the full package.
Impact Garage Doors in Delray Beach
Impact garage doors in Delray Beach are a code requirement for new and replacement openings, and they are one of the most common wind-mitigation inspection failures on older single-family homes and townhome communities west of Federal Highway. Original hollow-core or non-rated garage doors from the 1980s simply cannot carry the design pressure rating Palm Beach County enforces today, and retrofitting braces onto an existing door is not the same as a labeled impact-rated assembly. Our Impact Garage Doors page explains the testing standards, the labeling you need, and what a full replacement includes.
Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors
Signs you need it
Your door lacks a product approval label, or you can see visible deflection in the panel face when you push on it from inside the garage.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Hurricane-rated garage door replacement in Delray Beach typically runs $2,800 to $6,500 for a standard two-car opening, including track and hardware.
How we do it
We remove the old door and tracks, install a labeled impact-rated assembly with reinforced hardware, and verify the final product approval documentation matches the installed door.
Wind-Load Code Compliance
Signs you need it
A wind-mitigation inspection report that lists your garage door as non-rated or under-rated is the clearest sign, and it usually costs you on your insurance premium.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Bringing a garage door into wind-load code compliance in Delray Beach runs $2,500 to $5,800 when it means a full replacement with an impact-rated door.
How we do it
We review the existing opening and building construction type, spec a door that meets the design pressure for your exposure category, and file the permit package with the county.
What Impact Garage Doors Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors | $2,800-$6,500 per two-car opening |
| Wind-Load Code Compliance | $2,500-$5,800 per replacement |
| Energy-Efficient Garage Doors | $2,000-$4,800 per opening |
Will a new impact garage door lower my insurance in Delray Beach?
In most cases, yes. A labeled impact-rated garage door satisfies the wind-mitigation requirement that insurers look for, and we provide the documentation your agent needs. Call (509) 265-6387 for a written scope.
Can you install an impact garage door on an older CBS home?
Yes. We anchor the new track system to the concrete block with the hardware the door’s product approval specifies, and we document the installation with photos for your records.
Custom & Geometric Windows in Delray Beach
Custom and geometric windows in Delray Beach come up most often in two places: the Old School Square Historic District, where replacement openings must match a specific historic frame profile and sightline, and the oceanfront condos where owners want a shaped window that does not exist in a standard product-catalog size. Both jobs require the same thing: a window built to the exact rough opening, then engineered to carry a product approval label. Our Custom & Geometric Windows hub details the process and the manufacturers we source from, including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows.
Arched & Curved Windows
Signs you need it
An arched opening that currently holds a fixed pane with no impact rating, or a builder-grade unit that has cracked at the spring line, is a candidate for a custom replacement.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Arched and curved window replacement in Delray Beach typically runs $1,200 to $4,500 per opening, depending on radius, glass package, and impact requirements.
How we do it
We template the existing opening with exact radius measurements, order the unit to a factory-cut curve, and install it onto fresh flashing with the frame profile matched to the building.
Custom Impact Windows
Signs you need it
Any irregular or non-standard opening that needs impact glazing, but has no matching size in a manufacturer’s standard product line, requires a custom impact window.
What it costs in Delray Beach
Custom impact windows in Delray Beach range from $900 to $3,800 per opening, with complex geometries and historic-profile requirements at the higher end.
How we do it
We measure the opening with a digital template, spec the glass and frame to meet the design pressure for your zone, and verify the product approval before the unit goes to production.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Delray Beach
| Item | Typical range in Delray Beach |
|---|---|
| Arched & Curved Windows | $1,200-$4,500 per opening |
| Custom Impact Windows | $900-$3,800 per opening |
| Oversized Openings | $1,500-$5,500 per opening |
How long do custom windows take from order to install in Delray Beach?
Allow 6 to 12 weeks depending on the manufacturer and glass package. We lock the price at the measured survey, so the written quote you receive is the final invoice. Call (509) 265-6387 to schedule the survey.
Can you match the historic window profile in Old School Square?
Yes. We work with manufacturers that offer historically compatible frame profiles and sightlines, and we coordinate the city preservation review with the permit package.
Brands We Service in Delray Beach
We install and service windows and doors from PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, specified by what the opening requires rather than what is in stock. Local parts access for common hardware keeps turnaround tight on warranty work. See our brands for the full eight manufacturer lines and how we match each one to performance tier and price range.
