Kendall West sits inside Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means every window and door on your home has to meet a stricter code than almost anywhere else in the country. If you’re dealing with a fogged pane, a door that binds in the afternoon heat, or windows that rattle when the wind picks up off the Everglades, you need a crew that knows the HVHZ requirements cold. TruePane Windows & Doors serves Kendall West with licensed, background-checked technicians who understand what these homes demand. Call us at (386) 854-7948 and a live person picks up, any hour, any day.

Why Kendall West Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Kendall West homeowners do not gamble on contractors. Too many people in this community remember the aluminum single-pane windows that rattled through Hurricane Andrew, and too many have been handed a quote from an out-of-area crew that did not know a Miami-Dade NOA from a Broward product approval. TruePane has spent more than years in the glazing trade, and Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We are not a franchise playbook. We are a second-generation glazier’s shop that trains local apprentices into journeymen and plans to be answering the phone in Kendall West thirty years from now.
We work regularly in the blocks around Kendall Drive and the neighborhoods tucked between SW 107th Avenue and the Everglades buffer. Homeowners near Alper JCC and the businesses along Southwest 88th Street call us for impact window replacements, patio door resets, and the kind of precise sealing work that keeps afternoon storm water out of the frame joints. Our reviews from Kendall West residents consistently mention the same things: the crew showed up on time, measured every opening twice, and registered both warranty layers in writing before the truck left the driveway.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Kendall West
Window Installation
We install new windows that meet Miami-Dade HVHZ standards, sized and flashed for concrete-block openings. Every frame gets checked for true before it is set, and both manufacturer warranty layers are registered on paper before we leave. Learn more about our Window Installation in Kendall West.
Door Installation
Entry doors, interior doors, and patio doors installed with proper sill flashing and threshold sealing for Kendall West’s afternoon storm pattern. We set doors to clear correctly in July heat and hold their line through the winter dry season. Learn more about our Door Installation in Kendall West.
Window Replacement
We pull out failed single-pane aluminum, jalousie frames, and delaminating impact glass, then set in new units that carry a Miami-Dade NOA. The replacement is measured twice, quoted in writing, and backed by our Done Right Promise. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Kendall West.
Impact Windows & Doors
Impact Windows & Doors - Kendall West tested to the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standard, with laminated glass interlayers that do not delaminate like the first-generation products installed after Andrew. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows - Kendall West sized for the western exposure and the humidity that presses against the Everglades buffer. Properly sealed frames cut both your cooling load and the condensation that forms on old single-pane units during the wet season.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliding & Patio Doors in Kendall West replaced or reconditioned, with rollers, tracks, and weatherstripping addressed so the door moves easily and seals tight. We see many post-Andrew sliders in Kendall West with failed weatherstripping that owners assumed was still under some lifetime claim.
Glass Railing Systems
Glass Railing Systems in Kendall West built to code and anchored properly into concrete. These are popular on Kendall West homes with pool decks and raised patios facing the Everglades corridor.
Custom Windows & Doors
Odd-shaped openings, arch tops, oversized sliders, and custom sizes fabricated and installed to the same HVHZ standard as everything else we set. We handle the unusual jobs that big-box installers turn down.

Why Kendall West’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Kendall West does not get the salt spray that eats frames in coastal zones, but it gets something just as demanding: relentless interior humidity and daily afternoon convective storms that drive water horizontally into door thresholds and window frame joints. That is why proper low-E insulated frame sealing and Miami-Dade-rated sill flashing matter even on elevations that never face the ocean. The housing stock here is split cleanly by Hurricane Andrew’s 1992 direct strike. Homes that survived often still carry original jalousie or aluminum single-pane windows that are completely out of compliance with current HVHZ standards. Post-Andrew rebuilds, now 25 to 30 years old, are showing delaminating impact-glass interlayers and failing weatherstripping that owners mistakenly believe is still covered by some lifetime product claim. Both situations require a crew that knows what to look for before a single frame is ordered.
There is also a local inspection quirk that catches out-of-area contractors: Miami-Dade inspectors routinely reject window and door permits when the product was pulled from a neighboring Broward County supplier. Items with Florida Product Approval but no Miami-Dade NOA sticker fail the HVHZ inspection checklist outright. That means a job restart, a second permit cycle, and weeks of delay, all of which fall on the homeowner. TruePane verifies the NOA before the first frame is ordered. We have done this too many times to let a customer find out at inspection.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Kendall West
Window replacement in Kendall West typically runs $450-$900 per opening for standard glass and $850-$1,600 for impact-rated units, installed. The spread depends on size, frame condition, and whether the existing opening needs concrete repair before the new unit goes in. Call (386) 854-7948 for an exact written quote, it costs nothing to have us measure.
Yes. Kendall West is inside Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which requires every window and door replacement to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, not just a Florida Product Approval. A unit that meets the Florida Building Code but lacks the NOA sticker will fail inspection in Kendall West. We verify the NOA before ordering anything.
No. We quote in writing and the number on the quote is the number on the bill. If we open a wall and find rotted framing or failed anchors, we stop, show you what we found, and agree on any additional scope before touching it. The Done Right Promise means if something is not right after the install, we come back and make it right without arguing.
Most single-unit window replacements or door resets are done in one visit, usually two to four hours of on-site work. Full home impact conversions take longer depending on the number of openings. We will give you a schedule in writing before the first cut, and we keep it.
We do. Permits are pulled with Miami-Dade County, inspections are scheduled, and we make sure the NOA documentation is on the job site for the inspector. This is one of the places where cheap bids fall apart in Kendall West, unpermitted work gets flagged at resale, and the homeowner eats the correction cost years later.

What Kendall West Customers Say
"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."Eleven windows replaced in two days. The crew chief, Marcus, showed me the level on every single frame before they caulked it. My wife noticed the street noise was gone before I did."
- Ronald P."Sliding door had been dragging for years. They quoted a repair first, said the track was shot, then priced the replacement both ways on paper. No pressure either direction. Door glides with one finger now."
