Why Lighthouse Point Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 as a second-generation glazier who had watched too many homeowners get stuck with out-of-true installs and voided warranties. The company has carried years of craft tradition since. We don’t run a franchise playbook. We hire local people, train apprentices into journeymen, and answer the phone like a company that plans to be in South Florida thirty years from now.
Lighthouse Point homeowners call us for a specific reason: the canal-front properties in the Venetian Isles and the deep-water lots off Lighthouse Drive don’t forgive sloppy work. Salt spray finds every gap within a year. We 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, and it’s in writing on every job.
You’ll see our trucks around Lighthouse Point regularly. We work in the older ranch homes off Northeast 31st Street and the larger canal estates north of Sample Road. The feedback we hear most often is that we showed up when we said we would and the bill matched the quote. That’s a square deal, and that’s how we’ve always done it.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Lighthouse Point
Window Installation
New construction or retrofit, we install window lines that hold up to coastal Florida conditions. Lighthouse Point homes built in the 1960s and 1970s almost always need full tear-outs, and we handle those as a standard job, not an exception.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Lighthouse Point.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, rear lanai sliders, and side service doors all face the same salt-laden air. We hang doors square, seal them tight, and make sure they latch clean in July when humidity makes wood swell.

Window Replacement
The original single-pane aluminum jalousie and horizontal-slider windows on most Lighthouse Point ranch homes are energy drains and flatly non-compliant with current code. We replace them with impact-rated or energy-efficient units that meet HVHZ requirements without changing the architectural character of the house.
Learn more about our Window Replacement in Lighthouse Point.
Impact Windows & Doors
Broward County’s HVHZ designation means every replacement opening must carry Miami-Dade NOA-equivalent approval. We install PGT, CGI, and other impact lines rated for the wind speeds Lighthouse Point structures are designed to resist. This is not an upsell; it’s the code.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Those old jalousie windows leak conditioned air year-round. Modern low-E and double-pane units cut the load noticeably, especially on east-facing elevations that catch the morning sun off the canals. We’ll show you the glass packages and let the numbers do the talking.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Canal-facing rear elevations in Lighthouse Point commonly feature oversized original aluminum sliders opening to screened lanais. These are the most frequently corroded and permit-flagged openings in the city. We replace tracks, rollers, and full Sliding & Patio Doors in Lighthouse Point systems with hardware that won’t bind from salt buildup.
Glass Railing Systems
For docks, balconies, and canal-side patios, we install Glass Railing Systems in Lighthouse Point that meets load and impact requirements while keeping sightlines to the water clean. The posts and hardware are spec’d for continuous salt exposure, not inland assumptions.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd sizes, arched openings, or a design that no stock line will cover: we build and order custom units from manufacturers we trust, then install them to the same standard as everything else we do. If the opening is true and the frame is square, any window can be built to fit it.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Lighthouse Point
We cover all of Lighthouse Point, including the canal-heavy lots that make this city unlike anywhere else in Broward. Typical response for an estimate visit is same-week, and scheduling is handled by a live person, never an automated system.

Why Lighthouse Point’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Lighthouse Point packs roughly 47 miles of canals into a city of only about 2.5 square miles. That means nearly every home, not just the waterfront parcels, sits in salt-laden air year-round. Aluminum frames, steel rollers, and even stainless hardware that would last decades in an inland Broward community corrode here in a fraction of that time. We regularly replace sliding door tracks on Lighthouse Point homes where the original 1960s aluminum has pitted and the frame corners are weeping from years of direct salt-spray exposure off the canal.
On top of the corrosion problem, Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone designation requires every replaced window and door to carry Miami-Dade NOA-equivalent impact approval. So every job in Lighthouse Point has to solve two problems at once: marine-grade corrosion resistance and the most stringent hurricane-resistance standard in the country. The rear sliding glass doors on canal-front lots, which face the prevailing east-southeast wind fetch, are consistently the first opening to fail during a named storm. That makes those lanai doors the single highest-volume line item on any Lighthouse Point window-and-door contractor’s estimate sheet. We plan for that, and we quote accordingly.
