If you live in Fountainebleau, you’re dealing with Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone every time you think about windows or doors. That means every replacement product has to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, not just Florida state approval. We’re TruePane Windows & Doors, and we’ve been setting and hanging windows and doors in this climate long enough to know exactly what passes inspection and what doesn’t. Call (813) 320-9346 and you’ll get a live person on the line, not a voicemail tree.

Why Fountainebleau Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Fountainebleau is a neighborhood of concrete block ranch homes and older apartment buildings, and most of them still have their original single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows. That’s the work we grew up doing, and it’s the work we still do carefully. Dale Kessler started TruePane with one rule written on a whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. We still run on that. When we quote a job, we put the manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you can see the difference between a Simonton and a PGT before you spend a dollar. Then we register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and every job is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it isn’t done right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.
We’ve worked in the apartments along Fontainebleau Boulevard and the older single-family streets south of the Turnpike. We know the building stock. We know what Miami-Dade inspectors look for on a final. And our techs show up in uniform, background-checked, and they measure every opening twice. You won’t get a rushed bid from someone who’s never touched a jalousie frame.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Fountainebleau
Window Installation
New construction or retrofit, we set windows square and plumb the first time. In Fountainebleau, that means working with CBS block openings and making sure every unit carries a current NOA label before it goes in. Learn more about our Window Installation in Fountainebleau.
Door Installation
Entry doors, French doors, and impact-rated front doors that close clean and seal tight. We check the rough opening twice and shim it true before the door ever swings. Learn more about our Door Installation in Fountainebleau.
Window Replacement
Most Fountainebleau replacements are removals of old jalousie or single-pane sliders. We handle the tear-out, the haul-away, and the new flashing without leaving a mess behind. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Fountainebleau.
Impact Windows & Doors
Impact-rated openings are the only way to satisfy Miami-Dade code and most Florida insurers. We install PGT and CGI lines that carry the NOA numbers this county demands, and we register every warranty in writing.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E glass and insulated frames cut the afternoon heat in Fountainebleau and drop your cooling load. In a neighborhood with concrete block walls and old aluminum frames, the windows are usually the biggest thermal leak in the house.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Sliders in Fountainebleau apartment buildings often sit behind accordion shutters. We size new units carefully so they don’t bind against existing shutter tracks, which is the kind of detail that fails an inspection if you miss it.
Glass Railing Systems
Frameless and semi-frameless glass railings for balconies and terraces. Strong enough for code, clean enough for the view.
Custom Windows & Doors
Unusual openings, odd sizes, or a specific architectural match for an older Fountainebleau ranch. We order custom and we set it so the reveal lines are dead even.

Why Fountainebleau’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Fountainebleau sits entirely inside Miami-Dade’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-borne debris region in the country. Every window and door product installed here has to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, which is a tougher certification than Florida state approval and one that doesn’t apply just a few miles north in Broward County. On top of that, this neighborhood’s housing stock is mostly concrete block structure from the 1960s through the 1980s, built before the post-Hurricane Andrew code overhaul in 1994. The original windows are typically jalousie or single-pane aluminum sliders with zero impact rating and terrible energy performance. Salt-laden humidity off the Bay, even six or seven miles inland, corrodes non-marine-grade aluminum frames within a couple decades. We see that corrosion on nearly every teardown here.
There’s also a specific problem unique to Fountainebleau’s apartment buildings. Many of them already have accordion shutters bolted over the sliding glass doors, but the single-hung or jalousie windows next to those sliders are still original. Replacing those windows means coordinating new frames around existing shutter tracks. Get the clearance wrong and the shutter won’t close. Skip the NOA label and Miami-Dade inspection fails on the spot. We coordinate both before we ever cut an opening.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Fountainebleau
What you’ll pay depends on the product, the opening, and whether the existing frame is salvageable. Honest ranges for this area:

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Fountainebleau
Yes, if you’re replacing windows or doors in Fountainebleau, Miami-Dade code requires every product to carry a current Notice of Acceptance (NOA), and most Florida insurers now require fully impact-rated openings to write or renew a policy. Older single-pane aluminum and jalousie units won’t pass. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you exactly what your building needs before you spend anything.
Most Fountainebleau window replacements run $450 to $1,800 per opening depending on whether you’re going with a standard retrofit or a full Miami-Dade impact unit. Jalousie-to-impact work costs more because the frame has to be rebuilt. We quote fixed prices with no change orders, so the number we give you is the number you pay. Call (813) 320-9346 for an exact line-item quote.
No. We quote fixed pricing in writing before any work begins, and we don’t add surprise line items. If we open a wall and find hidden damage, we stop and talk to you before proceeding. The 90-Day Done Right Promise covers the workmanship after the fact, but the price itself stays where we set it.
Yes. Every window and door replacement in Fountainebleau gets permitted through Miami-Dade, and every product we install carries a current NOA number on the label before it goes in. We coordinate the inspection, we’re on site for it, and we don’t consider the job done until the county signs off.
Both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing before we leave your driveway, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise covers the workmanship. If it isn’t done right, we make it right. You call, a live person answers, and we schedule the fix. That’s the deal, and it’s been the deal since Dale Kessler started the company.
If you’re in Fountainebleau and you’re tired of windows that sweat, bind, or don’t meet code, call TruePane Windows & Doors at (813) 320-9346. We’ll send a uniformed tech to measure every opening twice, quote your options side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves. Free estimates, no pressure, no surprises.

What Fountainebleau Customers Say
"A casement crank had stripped and the sash was swollen shut. The technician, Ray, fixed the crank on the spot and only then talked about replacement for the three windows that were genuinely done. That is why the whole street uses them now."
- Eleanor G."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."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.
