Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Kendall’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company

We are not the cheapest bid you will get in Kendall. We are the one that holds up. 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, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. The Keystone Standard is not marketing language. It is a written practice.

Our Custom Windows & Doors team works in Kendall homes the way we would work in our own mother’s house, which is to say carefully, punctually, and without leaving a mess in the hallway. Background-checked, uniformed technicians on every job. Most custom window and door work in Kendall is completed in a single visit.

We have served Kendall homeowners long enough to know which subdivisions have original jalousie panels hiding in laundry rooms, and which ones have HOA boards that scrutinize window styles. That local knowledge saves you time and money. A live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. A person.

Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Kendall

Custom Shape Windows

Kendall homes built in the 1980s occasionally feature half-round, octagon, or eyebrow windows above entryways and in master suites. When those fail, a stock replacement will not fit, and a homeowner who calls a national chain often waits weeks for a quote that never arrives. We fabricate and install radius, arch, trapezoid, and true divided-lite custom shapes with manufacturer lines we are authorized to install. Every custom shape window we set in Kendall carries an NOA where impact rating applies.

Impact-Rated Glazing and Jalousie Replacement

This is the defining job type in Kendall. The original jalousie panels in screened patios and utility rooms throughout Kendale Lakes, The Hammocks, and adjacent communities were never code-compliant for hurricane protection. Miami-Dade County’s wind mitigation standard is all-or-nothing: one non-impact opening eliminates the full discount on the entire house. We replace jalousies with fixed impact picture windows or impact casement windows from manufacturers like PGT, CGI, and Andersen, each with a Miami-Dade NOA. Call (386) 200-9224 for a free on-site assessment.

Architectural Grilles & SDLs

Newer master-planned communities in Kendall, particularly those with stricter architectural review boards, often require windows that match a specific look. Simulated divided lites (SDLs) give you the appearance of individual panes with the energy performance and impact resistance of a single insulated glass unit. We quote SDL and architectural grille options side by side on paper so you can see exactly what you are buying and what each line costs before you commit.

Commercial Storefront Glazing and Curtain Wall Systems

Kendall’s commercial corridors along Kendall Drive and SW 88th Street include storefronts, medical offices, and professional buildings with aging storefront glazing systems. We install and replace commercial storefront framing, curtain wall sections, and oversized glass panels for Kendall businesses that need work done after hours or on weekends to avoid disruption. Our team handles the full job: removal, framing, setting, and cleanup.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kendall

TruePane Windows & Doors is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. We are not tied to one brand, which means we quote the right product for your Kendall home rather than the one we happen to stock. For impact work, we commonly recommend PGT and CGI lines with Miami-Dade NOA documentation. For architectural and custom work, we turn to Andersen and Marvin. We also service and replace ECO Window Systems windows common in newer Kendall construction. We keep the hardware and parts in our South Florida shop, so a service call does not wait on a warehouse three states away. Call (386) 200-9224 and ask us to quote two lines side by side. We will.

Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Kendall Homes

• Corroded original aluminum frames in Kendale Lakes. Decades of 80-90% average humidity and salt air from Biscayne Bay eat through original aluminum window frames. The glass may be intact, but the frame gaps fail wind mitigation and leak conditioned air. We replace the entire opening, not just the sash.
• Original jalousie panels in laundry rooms and screened patios. Andrew-era homes throughout The Hammocks and Kendale Lakes commonly have one jalousie window tucked in a utility room. Under Miami-Dade’s all-or-nothing rule, that one panel voids the wind mitigation discount for the whole house. It is the single most common thing we fix in Kendall.
• Fogged insulated glass units in newer builder-grade windows. The master-planned communities built in the last 15-20 years often used double-hung windows with cheap weatherstripping and seals that fail in 5-7 years. You will see the fog between the panes. That is a failed seal, not a cleaning problem. We replace the IGU or the whole sash depending on the frame.
• HOA-mandated window styles that constrict replacement options. Several newer Kendall HOA communities have architectural guidelines that specify window colors, grille patterns, and even manufacturer lines. We have worked with enough Kendall HOA boards to know how to get your replacement approved the first time without a fight.

How Kendall’s Wind Mitigation Rules Shape the Work

Kendall’s sprawling 1970s and 1980s CBS tract subdivisions sit in the southwestern Miami-Dade swath that sustained major damage during Hurricane Andrew in 1992, and many homeowners replaced windows only piecemeal in the years after. Today, a large share of Kendale Lakes and The Hammocks homes carry a mix of impact and non-impact openings that fail wind mitigation inspections. One original jalousie panel in a laundry room. One unbraced original garage door. That single opening eliminates the full wind-mitigation discount for the entire house, commonly costing $3,000-$6,000 per year in Citizens Insurance or private carrier premiums. This is the primary sales conversation in Kendall, because our technicians routinely walk older Kendale Lakes homes and find exactly that: one overlooked panel bleeding the homeowner thousands annually.

Miami-Dade County falls within the highest design wind-speed zone in the continental United States, and Kendall’s inland position does not provide meaningful protection. Andrew proved Category 4-plus winds reach well into the western suburbs. Add the intense summer afternoon thunderstorms and year-round humidity, and the case for whole-home impact packages in Kendall writes itself. Every product we install here carries a Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA), a product approval standard stricter than the rest of Florida’s Building Code. That limitation narrows the field of manufacturers and installers who can legally work in Kendall. We are one of them.

Last spring our crew worked a Kendale Lakes ranch on SW 88th Street where the homeowner’s wind mitigation inspection failed because of one original jalousie window in the laundry room. We replaced all openings with impact-rated casement windows with fusion-welded sashes and argon-filled low-E insulated glass units, and swapped the jalousie for a fixed impact picture window with Miami-Dade NOA. The reinspection passed, and the homeowners regained their full insurance discount. That is the whole job, done right.
