AfterWindows & Doors in Boca Raton, FL
Window and door installation in Boca Raton typically runs $650-$4,200 per opening depending on frame material, impact rating, and whether the job requires navigating HOA architectural review before city permitting. Most homes here were built between 1970 and 1995 with original aluminum single-pane windows and sliding glass doors that are now 30-50 years old, well past service life and non-compliant with current Florida Building Code wind-load requirements. We start every Window Installation with a measured survey you keep, and the written price we give is the price on the invoice - call (754) 254-7558 to schedule yours.
Why Boca Raton Homes Are Different
Boca Raton’s extraordinarily high concentration of master-planned, HOA-governed communities - Boca West, Broken Sound, Woodfield Country Club, The Polo Club, and dozens more - means virtually every window or door replacement job requires navigating a separate architectural review board approval before the City of Boca Raton building permit can even be submitted. Contractors who don’t know the specific submittal requirements, color palettes, and review timelines of each community’s ARB lose jobs or blow schedules; this dual-approval gauntlet is the defining operational reality of the trade here, unlike neighboring Delray Beach or Boynton Beach where HOA density is far lower.
The housing stock itself compounds the challenge. The bulk of Boca Raton’s residential construction is concrete block stucco (CBS) built in phased developments, leaving thousands of original aluminum single-pane windows and aluminum-framed sliding glass doors that are now completely non-compliant with current Florida Building Code wind-load and impact requirements. Salt-laden air from the Atlantic and Intracoastal Waterway aggressively pits and oxidizes aluminum frames within a mile of open water, making full frame-and-sash replacement - rather than reglazing - the standard scope on coastal properties. Palm Beach County’s adopted wind-speed design requirements of roughly 160-170 mph mandate impact-rated or protected openings, and because the city sits just north of the Broward County line (HVHZ territory), homeowners and insurers are acutely aware of the premium discounts tied to full opening protection.
Boca Raton operates its own full-service municipal building department entirely separate from Palm Beach County, and its inspectors enforce a locally amended permit checklist - including requiring signed HOA architectural approval letters as part of the permit package for properties in deed-restricted communities. Experienced local crews know to budget 4-8 weeks for the combined ARB-plus-city-permit queue before a single window comes out, and know which communities (like Boca West’s notoriously detailed ARB) require elevation drawings and manufacturer spec sheets before they’ll schedule a review.
Our Main Boca Raton Services
Most calls we field from Boca Raton homeowners center on two needs: replacing failed original windows and doors with code-compliant impact-rated systems, and upgrading to energy-efficient units that cut cooling loads. Here is where those jobs live on our site.
Window Replacement in Boca Raton
Original aluminum single-pane windows in Boca Raton’s 1970-1995 housing stock conduct heat, leak air, and offer zero impact protection. We measure every opening to the nearest 1/8 inch, specify replacement units from our eight manufacturer lines based on your community’s ARB requirements, and deliver a written price before any work starts. Window Replacement in Boca Raton covers the full scope, from measured survey to documented photo record.
Impact Windows & Doors in Boca Raton
With Palm Beach County wind-speed design requirements around 160-170 mph and insurers demanding full opening protection, impact-rated windows and doors are not optional here. We specify laminated glass and reinforced frames from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows based on your exposure - beachfront versus inland - and handle the Miami-Dade or Florida Product Approval documentation your permit package requires. Impact Windows & Doors in Boca Raton details the full process.
Sliding & Patio Doors in Boca Raton
Original aluminum-framed sliding glass doors in Boca Raton’s CBS construction are notorious for corroded rollers, failed weatherstripping, and single-pane glass that violates current code. We replace these with multi-panel impact-rated systems - including 3-lite rollers for wide rear-wall openings common in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club and similar communities - with hardware rated for salt-air exposure. Sliding & Patio Doors in Boca Raton covers sizing, rating, and installation.

AfterWindow Installation in Boca Raton
Most window installation jobs we handle in Boca Raton involve removing 30-50-year-old aluminum single-pane units from concrete block stucco construction and replacing them with impact-rated vinyl or aluminum frames that meet Palm Beach County’s 160-170 mph wind-speed design requirements. Salt corrosion on coastal properties near the Intracoastal or along A1A often means the frame itself is compromised, not just the glass, so we scope full frame-and-sash replacement rather than insert windows. Every measured survey we perform in Boca Raton accounts for the stucco return depth and the structural attachment pattern typical of CBS construction from this era.
Single & Double Hung Windows
Signs you need it
The sashes no longer stay open without a prop, you feel drafts around the meeting rail, or the aluminum frame shows white oxidation pitting from salt air exposure.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Single and double hung window installation in Boca Raton typically ranges from $650 to $1,400 per opening for vinyl impact-rated units, with aluminum-clad wood or higher-tier options running $1,200 to $2,400.
How we do it
We remove the entire existing frame down to the rough opening, inspect the concrete block for moisture intrusion, install the new hung window with Tapcon-style masonry fasteners, flash the nailing fin with self-adhered membrane, and restore the stucco return to match.
Horizontal Roller Windows
Signs you need it
The rollers grind or stick, the locking mechanism no longer engages, or the single-pane glass transmits so much heat that the adjacent wall is hot to the touch in July.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Horizontal roller window installation in Boca Raton generally runs $700 to $1,500 per opening for standard sizes, with oversized units for great rooms or combined openings reaching $1,800 to $2,800.
How we do it
We measure the daylight opening and the structural pocket depth, specify a roller window with stainless steel hardware from ES Windows or ECO Window Systems for salt-air durability, install with continuous sill pan flashing, and test operation before the stucco patch cures.
What Window Installation Costs in Boca Raton
| Item | Typical range in Boca Raton |
|---|---|
| Single or double hung vinyl impact window | $650 - $1,400 |
| Horizontal roller impact window | $700 - $1,500 |
| Oversized or custom-width roller unit | $1,800 - $2,800 |
How long does window installation take in Boca Raton?
Once permits and HOA approvals are in hand, most residential window installations in Boca Raton take 1-3 days for a full-home replacement of 10-20 openings. The ARB-plus-city-permit queue typically adds 4-8 weeks before work starts. Call (754) 254-7558 for an exact timeline on your property - estimates are free.
Will my HOA approve the window style I want?
Most Boca Raton HOAs approve impact-rated vinyl or aluminum windows in white or almond, but communities like Boca West and Broken Sound require specific manufacturer spec sheets and elevation drawings we provide as part of our measured survey. We handle the ARB submittal package as standard, not as an add-on.
Door Installation in Boca Raton
Door installation in Boca Raton means replacing corroded aluminum-framed units that have failed from 30-50 years of salt-air exposure, with the added requirement that every new door meet Palm Beach County’s wind-load and impact standards for 160-170 mph design speeds. Original entry doors in the 1970-1995 housing stock are often hollow-core or thin-gauge steel with single-pane sidelites, offering neither security nor code compliance; rear patio doors suffer from failed rollers and leaking weatherstripping that drives up cooling costs and risks water intrusion in CBS construction.
Hurricane-Proof Front & Entry Doors
Signs you need it
The door frame is corroded at the threshold, the deadbolt no longer seats flush, or your insurer has flagged the opening as unprotected and raised your windstorm premium.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Hurricane-proof front and entry door installation in Boca Raton typically ranges from $1,800 to $4,200 including impact-rated slab, reinforced frame, and multipoint locking hardware from Therma-Tru or equivalent.
How we do it
We remove the existing unit and inspect the concrete block rough opening for spalling, install a pressure-rated frame with stainless steel fasteners, hang the impact-rated door with continuous hinge reinforcement, and verify multipoint lock engagement before finishing.
French & Double Doors
Signs you need it
The astragal between the active and inactive door is warped or leaking, the shoot bolts no longer retract smoothly, or the single-pane glass violates current Florida Building Code for the opening size.
What it costs in Boca Raton
French and double door installation in Boca Raton generally runs $2,400 to $5,500 for impact-rated units with laminated glass, with pricing driven by width, hardware grade, and whether the opening requires a new header.
How we do it
We verify the header can support the new door’s weight and wind load, install the frame with sill pan and jamb flashing integrated to the WRB, hang both doors with adjustable hinges, and adjust the multipoint hardware until the compression seal is uniform.
What Door Installation Costs in Boca Raton
| Item | Typical range in Boca Raton |
|---|---|
| Hurricane-proof front / entry door | $1,800 - $4,200 |
| French or double door system | $2,400 - $5,500 |
| Standard replacement patio door | $1,400 - $3,200 |
Do I need a permit to replace my front door in Boca Raton?
Yes. The City of Boca Raton requires a building permit for any exterior door replacement, and if your property is in a deed-restricted community, signed HOA architectural approval must accompany the permit application. We pull the permit and manage the ARB submittal as part of our standard scope.
Can I keep my existing frame and just replace the door slab?
In Boca Raton’s salt-air environment, we rarely recommend slab-only replacement; the aluminum frame is usually corroded at the threshold and jamb, and the existing frame won’t carry the impact-rated hardware or meet current wind-load requirements. Our measured survey documents the full condition and we quote frame-and-slab replacement when it’s necessary.
Energy-Efficient Windows in Boca Raton
Energy-efficient window installation in Boca Raton addresses the specific penalty of original aluminum single-pane windows in 1970-1995 CBS construction, which conduct heat at rates that force air conditioning systems to run continuously from April through October. With cooling degree days among the highest in Florida and electricity rates from Florida Power & Light climbing steadily, the payback on low-E coated, argon-filled impact windows is measurable and documented on utility bills within two billing cycles.
Low-E & Argon Gas Glass
Signs you need it
Your west- and south-facing rooms are uncomfortably hot by mid-afternoon, your AC runs more than 12 hours daily in summer, or you can feel radiant heat through the glass with your hand.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Low-E and argon gas glass packages add $80 to $180 per opening over standard impact glass, with whole-home upgrades typically running $8,500 to $18,000 depending on opening count and frame material.
How we do it
We specify dual-pane units with soft-coat low-E on surface #2 and argon fill to manufacturer spec, verify the spacer is warm-edge silicone not conductive aluminum, and document the U-factor and SHGC ratings on your written quote for rebate or tax credit eligibility.
ENERGY STAR Replacement Windows
Signs you need it
Your current windows are original to a home built before 1995, your FPL bill exceeds $350 monthly in July and August, or you’re preparing the property for sale and need documented efficiency upgrades.
What it costs in Boca Raton
ENERGY STAR replacement windows in Boca Raton typically range from $750 to $1,650 per opening installed, with the ENERGY STAR certification adding no premium - it’s a baseline specification we meet with ECO Window Systems or ViewLux lines.
How we do it
We calculate the orientation-specific solar heat gain coefficient your openings require, specify NFRC-certified units with documented U-factor below 0.30 and SHGC below 0.25 for south-facing glass, and provide the certification paperwork for any available rebate program.
What Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Boca Raton
| Item | Typical range in Boca Raton |
|---|---|
| Low-E / argon upgrade per opening | +$80 - $180 |
| Whole-home ENERGY STAR replacement (10-20 openings) | $8,500 - $18,000 |
| High-performance solar control tint package | +$120 - $250 per opening |
Will energy-efficient windows lower my FPL bill in Boca Raton?
Yes. Homes we retrofit in Boca Raton with low-E, argon-filled impact windows typically see summer cooling costs drop 15-30%, with the greatest reductions on west- and south-facing walls. The measured survey includes solar orientation analysis so we specify the right SHGC for each exposure.
Do energy-efficient windows qualify for tax credits or rebates?
ENERGY STAR-certified windows may qualify for federal tax credits and occasional FPL rebate programs; we provide the NFRC certification labels and product specification sheets with every installation so you have the documentation to file. Call (754) 254-7558 and we’ll review current programs during your estimate.
Impact Garage Doors in Boca Raton
Impact garage door installation in Boca Raton is driven by the same wind-load requirements that govern windows and entry doors - Palm Beach County’s 160-170 mph design speed - plus the reality that a failed garage door creates a catastrophic pressure envelope breach that can lift the roof off CBS construction. Original garage doors in Boca Raton’s 1970-1995 housing stock are typically uninsulated, non-impact-rated steel or aluminum panels with no wind-load certification; insurers increasingly require documented opening protection for full premium discounts.
Hurricane-Rated Garage Doors
Signs you need it
Your current garage door has no Miami-Dade or Florida Product Approval number, the panels rattle in a thunderstorm, or your windstorm insurer has listed the garage door as an unprotected opening.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Hurricane-rated garage door installation in Boca Raton typically ranges from $2,200 to $5,800 for a standard two-car opening, with wind-load ratings from 140 mph to 180 mph driving the price spread.
How we do it
We measure the finished opening and structural header capacity, specify a door with Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval matched to your wind-borne debris region, install with heavy-gauge track and reinforced struts, and connect the opener to a battery backup system per current code.
Wind-Load Code Compliance
Signs you need it
You’re selling the property and the buyer’s inspector flagged the garage door as non-compliant, or you’re renewing windstorm coverage and the insurer requires documentation of full opening protection.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Wind-load code compliance upgrades for existing garage doors in Boca Raton run $850 to $2,400 if the door itself can be retrofitted with reinforcement, or $2,200 to $5,800 for full replacement when the door is too old or damaged for retrofit.
How we do it
We inspect the existing door for panel gauge, track attachment, and spring balance, calculate the actual wind load the opening sees based on exposure and door size, and either install a code-compliant retrofit kit with documentation or specify and install a full replacement with NOA paperwork.
What Impact Garage Doors Costs in Boca Raton
| Item | Typical range in Boca Raton |
|---|---|
| Hurricane-rated garage door (2-car, installed) | $2,200 - $5,800 |
| Wind-load retrofit kit with documentation | $850 - $2,400 |
| Impact-rated garage door with battery backup opener | $3,200 - $6,500 |
Does my garage door need to be impact-rated if I have impact windows?
Yes. Florida Building Code and most insurers treat the garage door as a separate opening; full premium discounts and code compliance require every opening to be protected, not just the windows. We document the garage door’s Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval number as part of our standard photo record.
Can you install a hurricane-rated garage door on the same day?
No. Garage door installation requires a building permit from the City of Boca Raton, and if you’re in an HOA-governed community, architectural review adds 2-4 weeks before permitting can even begin. We schedule the measured survey immediately, but the installation date depends on the permit and ARB timeline - we do not promise same-day installation on planned construction work.
Custom & Geometric Windows in Boca Raton
Custom and geometric window installation in Boca Raton serves the higher-end corridors near the Intracoastal and along Royal Palm Way, where Mediterranean Revival-influenced homes feature arched, radius-top, and oversized openings that cannot accept stock units. These custom shapes must still meet Palm Beach County’s 160-170 mph wind-load requirements and often face the strictest ARB scrutiny in communities like The Polo Club and Woodfield Country Club, where maintaining architectural integrity is enforced with detailed submittal requirements.
Arched & Curved Windows
Signs you need it
Your existing arched window has cracked or fogged glass with no replacement stock available, the radius does not match standard catalog sizes, or the ARB has rejected a rectangular replacement as inconsistent with the community’s architectural guidelines.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Arched and curved window installation in Boca Raton typically ranges from $1,800 to $4,500 per opening for custom-shaped impact-rated vinyl or aluminum units, with pricing driven by radius complexity, glass area, and whether the opening requires a new structural support.
How we do it
We take a full-size template of the existing radius or use digital measurement for new construction, send the specification to Mr-Glass or ES Windows for custom lamination and framing, and coordinate the shop-drawing submittal with your community’s ARB before ordering.
Oversized Openings
Signs you need it
You’re combining multiple smaller windows into a single great-room opening, the existing fixed glass exceeds the maximum size for standard impact-rated units, or you’re building new and the architect has specified floor-to-ceiling glazing.
What it costs in Boca Raton
Oversized opening window installation in Boca Raton generally runs $3,500 to $8,500 per opening for custom impact-rated units exceeding 40 square feet, with structural engineering and permit drawings adding $800 to $2,200 to the project.
How we do it
We verify the header and sill can support the concentrated wind load of a large unit, specify laminated glass with reinforced interlayer and thermally broken aluminum framing from CGI or PGT, engineer the attachment pattern for CBS construction, and crane-set units that exceed safe manual handling weight.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Boca Raton
| Item | Typical range in Boca Raton |
|---|---|
| Arched or curved impact window | $1,800 - $4,500 |
| Oversized opening (40+ sq ft) | $3,500 - $8,500 |
| Structural engineering and permit drawings | $800 - $2,200 |
How long does a custom window order take in Boca Raton?
Custom and geometric windows from our manufacturer lines typically require 8-14 weeks from approved shop drawings to delivery, plus 4-8 weeks for ARB and city permit approval in Boca Raton. We begin the measured survey and ARB submittal immediately so the queues run in parallel, not in series.
Will my HOA approve custom window shapes?
Most Boca Raton HOAs approve custom shapes that match the original architectural intent, but communities like The Polo Club and Woodfield Country Club require detailed elevation drawings and manufacturer spec sheets we prepare as part of our standard scope. We do not order until ARB approval is in writing.
