Windows and doors in Kendale Lakes generally come down to one decision: replacing 1970s-era aluminum single-pane units with Miami-Dade NOA-certified impact products. That’s the job in this community, and it’s the work TruePane does every week here. We know the subdivisions, the canal-front lots, and the way humidity works on forty-year-old frames. When you call (386) 854-7948, a live person answers and we’ll talk straight about what your house actually needs.

Why Kendale Lakes Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Most of our Kendale Lakes calls start the same way. A sliding glass door has been weeping into the wall cavity for years, or an original aluminum bedroom window won’t seal against July humidity anymore. Homeowners want a straight answer on what it costs to fix right, not a sales pitch. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We’ve kept that standard ever since, and the Kendale Lakes homeowners who call us back for second and third projects are the proof. We work throughout the lakes, the canal streets off Kendall Drive, and over in the neighborhoods around Country Walk. Background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. And our Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right, we make it right without paperwork fights.
Dale still reviews jobs personally. Not because he has to, but because he won’t put the TruePane name on work he hasn’t seen with his own eyes. That’s the difference between a company that plans to be in town in thirty years and one that’s just passing through.

Impact Windows & Doors
Impact Windows & Doors in Kendale Lakes are the standard here, not the upgrade. We install them with proper anchoring and sealant so they do what the code requires when wind load hits.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in Kendale Lakes with Low-E glass and insulated frames cut the August cooling bill and block the UV that fades furniture facing south across the lakes. A square deal on comfort and power costs, with the numbers on paper before you commit.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Aluminum sliding glass doors from the 1970s are the single most common failure point in Kendale Lakes homes, especially on lake-facing and canal-adjacent lots.

Glass Railing Systems
Frameless and semi-frameless glass railings for pool decks and lake-facing patios. Engineered to meet Miami-Dade wind and live-load requirements, installed by the same crews who handle our window work.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd sizes, arched tops, and openings no one builds a stock unit for. We measure, order from authorized manufacturer lines, and set custom pieces that fit the opening the first time.

Why Kendale Lakes’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Kendale Lakes was developed in the 1970s as a master-planned community built around man-made lakes and canals. Most of the single-family homes are concrete block (CBS) construction with original aluminum single-pane windows and sliding glass doors from that era. Those products are now forty to fifty years old, which puts them at end of service life, and they’re flatly non-compliant with Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone code. Any permitted replacement in Kendale Lakes must use Miami-Dade NOA-certified impact-resistant windows and doors. There is no budget single-pane option here, the way you might find in Broward County. That means every window and door quote in this community is an impact-product quote, and homeowners need to see the NOA numbers in writing before signing.
The lakes and canals do more than shape the scenery. Standing water nearby creates a microclimate of persistent moisture that corrodes aging aluminum frames faster than what you see in drier suburbs farther west or north. On lake-facing and canal-adjacent homes, sliding glass door frames often weep water into the CBS wall cavity for years before anyone opens the wall and sees it. Pulling an old unit regularly exposes spalled block and wet framing that has to be patched before the new impact door can be set. Bids for similar-vintage homes in Doral or Cutler Bay rarely include that remediation. In Kendale Lakes, it’s normal.

What follows are honest ranges for the work we do across Kendale Lakes. Your exact price depends on opening size, product line, and how much wall remediation the old unit has left behind. We quote fixed pricing on paper with no change orders after the fact.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Kendale Lakes
Yes. Kendale Lakes sits inside Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and any permitted window or door replacement must use Miami-Dade NOA-certified impact-resistant products. There is no code-compliant single-pane or non-impact option here. Call (386) 854-7948 and we’ll show you the NOA numbers for the product lines we quote.
Most impact window replacements in Kendale Lakes run $900-$1,800 per opening, installed. Sliding glass doors run higher, especially on canal-front lots where wall remediation is common.

No. We quote fixed pricing in writing, and we don’t add change orders on the back end. If we find spalled block or wet framing behind an old sliding door, we’ll show you the issue, agree on the fix, and put it in writing before proceeding. A square deal is the only way we do business.
We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and walk the job through Miami-Dade County’s process from start to finish. Impact products require NOA documentation for the permit, and we handle that paperwork so you don’t have to.
Most single-opening replacements are done in one visit. A full-home window package on a standard 1970s Kendale Lakes CBS home usually takes two to four working days, depending on opening count, wall remediation, and weather.

What Kendale Lakes Customers Say
"Had fog between the panes in four windows. They explained the seals had failed and argon was long gone, replaced the glass units instead of selling me whole windows. Honest outfit."
- Frank D."Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L."Our bay window had rotted at the sill and two other outfits wanted to talk us into a flat picture window instead. TruePane rebuilt the opening and matched the original look. Neighbors have knocked on the door about it."
- Gene A.
