AfterFast, Reliable Custom Windows & Doors Across Edgewood
Custom windows and doors in Edgewood are rarely a simple swap. Most homes here were built between the 1950s and 1970s with aluminum single-pane or jalousie frames that no longer meet Florida Building Code, and many sit directly under Orlando International Airport’s approach path. That means a replacement job usually involves acoustic ratings, wind-load documentation, and a permit rather than a quick sash swap. TruePane handles all three. If you’re in Edgewood and want a straight answer about impact-rated custom shapes, STC ratings, or HOA compliance, call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate.
Key Takeaways:
- Custom shape windows in Edgewood typically run $900-$2,400 per opening installed, depending on the shape and whether impact glazing is required.
- Homes under MCO’s flight path should spec laminated glass with an STC rating of 35 or higher to meaningfully reduce departure noise.
- Most Edgewood retrofits require Florida Product Approval documentation because Orange County enforces wind-borne debris standards.
- Architectural grilles and SDLs on custom windows add $180-$420 per unit depending on profile width and finish.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Edgewood’s Preferred Custom Windows & Doors Company
We work in Edgewood week in and week out, and we know the housing stock. The city’s built-out landscape means nearly every window and door project is a retrofit: original jalousies on the older ranches, builder-grade double-hungs on the 1990s and 2000s infill, and a handful of newer master-planned developments with strict architectural review boards. Our Custom Windows & Doors team measures every opening twice, quotes manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and registers both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 out of a simple rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That standard governs how we approach Edgewood work. Background-checked, uniformed technicians show up when we say they will, and a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a callback form. When an Edgewood homeowner calls about a fogged pane or a door that binds in July, they talk to someone who knows what a failed IGU seal in Central Florida humidity actually looks like.
Edgewood customers consistently mention two things in reviews: that our crews showed up prepared for the specific house, and that the warranty registration paperwork was handled before we left. That second part matters if you’ve ever tried to file a warranty claim on windows installed by a crew that vanished. We don’t vanish. We’ve been serving Edgewood and the rest of the metro area from our South Florida coordination office for years, and we plan to be here in thirty more.
Our Custom Windows & Doors Services in Edgewood
Custom Shape Windows
Edgewood’s older ranches and newer infill homes both use custom shapes: radius tops, octagons, trapezoids, eyebrow units, and oversized fixed picture windows. A custom arch over a living room picture window in a 1960s Edgewood Heights ranch runs $1,400-$2,400 installed with impact-rated laminated glass, depending on the radius and whether we need to reframe the rough opening. The original openings in homes along Hansrob Road and Lake Jessamine Drive were often framed on-site with whatever geometry the builder had on hand, so we re-measure and template every custom shape rather than trusting the old frame dimensions.
Commercial Storefront Glazing
Edgewood is a small residential city, but it has storefronts along Orange Avenue and South Orange Blossom Trail where commercial glazing work comes up. Curtain wall and storefront replacements here share the same wind-load compliance burden as residential work: any exterior glazing system must carry Florida Product Approval and meet the HVHZ fringe requirements Orange County enforces. We quote commercial storefront work the same way we quote residential: line items on paper, no change orders unless you approve them first.
Curtain Wall Systems
Curtain wall jobs in Edgewood are almost always retrofits of old aluminum storefront systems rather than new construction, because the city has no undeveloped land. That changes the work: the existing mullion layout, the condition of the anchor embeds, and the thermal performance of the original system all affect what can be done without rebuilding the wall. We’ll tell you straight if a curtain wall can be reglazed for $55-$90 per square foot or if the framing itself is done and needs a full replacement at $120-$200 per square foot, and we’ll put it in writing before any work starts.
Architectural Grilles & SDLs
Architectural grilles and simulated divided lites matter more in Edgewood than most people expect. In the city’s master-planned communities with active architectural review, the board often requires that replacement windows match the original divided-lite pattern. A true divided lite costs more than an SDL, and a routed internal grille is cheapest but reads differently from the street. We quote all three options on paper for Edgewood homeowners so the HOA review goes through the first time. Grille and SDL pricing adds $180-$420 per window depending on the profile width, profile material, and whether it’s applied to the interior, exterior, or both surfaces.

Trusted Brands We Service in Edgewood
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, Jeld-Wen, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. For Edgewood specifically, we quote PGT and CGI impact-rated lines often because their products carry the Florida Product Approvals that Orange County plan reviewers expect to see. Simonton and Ply Gem also come up when homeowners want a tighter budget without sacrificing wind-load compliance. We keep common parts and hardware locally stocked for faster turnaround on Edgewood repairs, and every manufacturer warranty layer gets registered in writing before we leave the driveway. If you’re not sure which line fits your house, we’ll put two or three side by side on paper so you can see the numbers yourself.
Common Custom Windows & Doors Problems We See in Edgewood Homes
- Fogged builder-grade panes from UV and humidity. Edgewood’s year-round humidity and intense sun cause seal failure in cheap insulated glass units within six to eight years. Once the seal fails, the argon leaks out and the pane fogs permanently. Cleaning won’t fix it; the IGU has to be replaced.
- Jalousie windows that rattle on every MCO departure. Original jalousies from the 1950s and 1960s are still in hundreds of Edgewood homes. They’re loud, drafty, and non-compliant with current wind-load code. Replacement with fixed or casement units is the only real fix.
- HOA rejections for non-impact custom shapes. We regularly hear from Edgewood homeowners who bought a custom radius or geometric window online, had it installed, and then received a notice from their association because the unit lacks Florida Product Approval documentation. That’s a costly tear-out. We check the HOA spec before we quote.
- Leaking retrofit sill details. Some crews reuse the old aluminum jamb pocket and skip the flashing tape to save a step. In Edgewood, where wind-driven rain tests happen during summer storms, that shortcut shows up as a leak at the sill. We flash every replacement properly and pull permits so the inspection catches any problems before the walls are closed up.
Pricing for Custom Windows & Doors in Edgewood, FL
Custom window pricing in Edgewood depends on the shape, the glass package, and whether the opening needs reframing, but here are real numbers. A standard rectangular replacement window with impact-rated laminated glass and low-E coating runs $700-$1,400 per unit installed. Custom shapes like radius tops, ovals, and hexagons add fabrication cost and run $900-$2,400 per unit. Oversized fixed picture units, the kind you see in Edgewood living rooms facing Lake Jessamine, start around $1,600 and can exceed $5,000 when you’re spanning ten or more feet with laminated acoustic glass. A full retrofit of a three-bedroom 1970s ranch with eight to ten openings typically lands between $12,000 and $22,000 depending on glass spec, HOA grille requirements, and frame condition.
What moves the number: impact-rated glazing adds roughly 25-35% over standard insulated glass; acoustic STC-35-plus laminated packages add another 10-20%; and custom geometry adds fabrication setup costs that don’t exist for rectangles. We give fixed, line-item quotes in writing so the price we quote is the price you pay. No change orders, no surprise line items. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate. We’ll send a technician to measure, walk the HOA requirements with you if you have them, and put the numbers on paper before you decide anything.
One thing Edgewood homeowners should know: sitting inside the FAA’s 65 DNL noise contour for Orlando International Airport means acoustic glass is not a luxury here. If your bedroom window faces the approach path, an STC 35-plus laminated package makes a difference you’ll notice the first night. That spec rarely comes up in Kissimmee or Sanford, but in Edgewood it’s a standard request.

FAQs - Custom Windows & Doors in Edgewood
Yes. Orange County enforces wind-borne debris standards for replacement windows and exterior doors, and a 1970s Edgewood home almost certainly has original frames that do not meet current Florida Building Code. Your replacement windows will need Florida Product Approval documentation, which usually means impact-rated laminated glass or a code-compliant shutter system paired with non-impact units. Impact-rated glass adds roughly 25-35% to the per-window cost, but it also handles the acoustic and UV benefits Edgewood homeowners end up wanting anyway. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you exactly what your house requires before you spend a dollar.
For Edgewood bedrooms directly under Orlando International’s departure or approach corridor, we recommend laminated glass with an STC rating of 35 or higher. That typically means dual-pane construction with a laminated outer or inner lite, often paired with argon fill and a low-E coating. A standard single-pane aluminum window from the 1960s rates around STC 27-29. Moving to STC 35-plus is the difference between hearing every departure and noticing them only when a heavy jet goes over low. Some Edgewood homeowners who participated in airport noise insulation assistance programs have a baseline expectation for what “good windows” means, and we quote to that standard. For an exact glass package recommendation for your specific house, call (813) 320-9346.
In most Edgewood homes, no. Original aluminum jamb pockets from the 1960s and 1970s are not thermally broken, rarely carry current Florida Product Approval, and often have enough frame corrosion that a sash-only retrofit won’t seal properly against wind-driven rain. Some crews offer “retrofit” sashes to skip full frame replacement and flashing work, but we’ve seen too many of those jobs in Edgewood pass a winter test and then leak at the sill during summer storms. A full frame replacement with proper flashing tape and a permit inspection is the right fix. We’ll tell you straight if your frames can actually support a retrofit, but most of the time the answer is no. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll look at your frames during a free estimate.
It depends on your community’s architectural review rules. Some Edgewood HOAs enforce strict pattern matching, meaning the replacement window must match the original divided-lite configuration and visible frame proportions. Casement windows read differently from the street than double-hungs, so boards sometimes deny them even when the wind-load and energy numbers are better. We check the HOA’s spec before we quote anything, because tear-out is the most expensive mistake an Edgewood homeowner can make. If your board denies casements, we’ll quote compliant alternatives, including double-hung replacements with SDL grilles that satisfy the pattern match. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll walk through your HOA rules with you before you choose a window.
Because the insulated glass unit seal has failed, and no amount of surface cleaning will fix it. Edgewood’s UV exposure and year-round humidity accelerate seal failure in cheap IGUs, especially builder-grade units installed in the 1990s and 2000s. Once the desiccant inside the spacer bar is saturated, you get permanent fogging between the panes. The only repair is replacing the IGU or the entire sash. If it keeps happening across multiple windows in the same house, the original units were under-specified for this climate, and we’d recommend upgrading to a higher-quality spacer system with a longer seal warranty. We replace failed IGUs on custom shapes in Edgewood, including radius and geometric units. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free assessment and we’ll tell you whether the IGU can be replaced or if the entire window needs to go.
On a 1970s ranch in Edgewood Heights, our crew replaced the original aluminum single-pane windows with dual-pane laminated impact-rated units using low-E glass and argon fill. The owner picked us after telling us the old jalousies would rattle at every MCO departure. The new casement and fixed units brought the street-side bedroom down to a whisper while holding a U-factor of 0.27. That’s the work we do in Edgewood: measured twice, quoted on paper, installed to hold up under departures overhead and hurricanes in season.
