AfterFast, Reliable Impact Windows & Doors Across Edgewood
If you own a home in Edgewood, you know what the 65 DNL noise contour means: Orlando International Airport’s flight paths put a constant hum over your living room, and your original single-pane jalousies do nothing to stop it. Impact windows and doors in Edgewood solve two problems at once: they meet Florida’s wind-borne debris code, and they cut the airport noise to a level where you can actually hear your own conversation. TruePane installs impact-rated windows and doors throughout Edgewood with glass packages engineered for sound attenuation, not just hurricane compliance. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk your house with a decibel meter and a written quote.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Edgewood’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
TruePane has worked Edgewood’s concrete block ranches long enough to know what waits behind the stucco. The post-WWII through 1970s CBS stock dominates this city, and nearly every original window opening hides rot, corroded anchors, or framing that was never flashed to modern code. We quote those realities on paper before the wall comes open, so the number you sign is the number you pay. Our crews are background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice before ordering a single unit.
Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That means our Edgewood customers get both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway, plus a 90-Day Done Right Promise on workmanship. No paper fights, no arguing. We stand behind it.
Response time to Edgewood is straightforward. A live person answers the phone 24/7, and scheduling is coordinated from our Miami-area South FL office with crews serving Edgewood directly. When a customer near Edgewood Drive calls about a fogged impact unit or a door that binds after a storm, we’re not routing them to a call center.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Edgewood
Every Edgewood home is a retrofit job. The city is an enclave entirely surrounded by Orlando, with no undeveloped land and no new construction to speak of. That means every window and door we install replaces something original to the house, and the opening usually needs work before the new unit goes in. Here’s how we handle the four services Edgewood homeowners ask about most, including Custom Windows & Doors - Edgewood solutions.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Hurricane impact windows in Edgewood run into two issues that define this city: airport noise and 1960s framing. We typically quote Simonton or PGT impact-rated units with laminated glass and argon fill, selected for both Florida Product Approval and STC performance. Before the window goes in, we inspect the existing bucks and anchors, because a 55-year-old concrete block opening rarely holds a modern unit square without repair. The 90-Day Done Right Promise covers that repair work, in writing.
Impact Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors on Edgewood’s ranch homes are often original to the house, and after fifty years of humidity and UV exposure, the rollers bind and the tracks flex. We replace the entire opening with Edgewood Sliding & Patio Doors that are impact-rated and meet current wind-load requirements, and we reset the threshold with proper flashing so water stops wicking into the slab. If you’re on the south side of the city under the MCO departure path, ask about laminated glass upgrades for the door panels. They make a measurable difference.
Impact Entry & French Doors
Entry doors in Edgewood’s CBS homes were rarely flashed correctly when the house was built, and decades of afternoon thunderstorms have worked water into the jambs. We pull the old door, repair or replace the buck, and set an impact-rated entry or French door with full flashing tape and a sill pan. The door itself comes from lines we install as an authorized dealer, including CGI and PGT, and both warranty layers get registered before we leave.
Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the largest opening on an Edgewood home and the one most likely to fail under wind load if it was never braced. We install impact-rated garage doors with reinforced tracks and code-compliant bracing. This matters more on the west side of Edgewood, where the garages face the afternoon storm front and take the brunt of wind-driven rain. If you’re pairing a new garage door with hurricane shutters on the rest of the house, we’ll quote both together so the permit package is consistent.

Trusted Brands We Service in Edgewood

You see exactly what you’re buying before you sign.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Edgewood Homes
Forty-plus years of working Edgewood’s housing stock teaches you what fails and why. These are the issues we see most often when we open a wall or pull a door in this city.
- Airport noise bleeding through original single-pane jalousies. Edgewood sits inside the 65 DNL contour for MCO, and the original aluminum-framed windows do nothing to stop the sound. Homeowners here routinely request STC 35 or higher, a spec that rarely comes up in Kissimmee or Sanford.
- Rotted wood bucks behind stucco. On 1960s concrete block ranches, the original wood window bucks were never flashed with modern tape. Moisture runs behind the stucco for decades, and when we pull the old window, the buck comes out in pieces. The new impact unit needs a solid, pressure-treated opening to sit in, and that replacement work is part of the real cost of the job.
- Fogged insulated glass in Edgewood humidity. Cheap IGU units lose argon fill quickly in Central Florida’s heat and humidity. Fog between panes means the seal has failed, and on an impact window, that seal failure leaves the impact rating as the only remaining protection. We replace those units with quality spacer and gas-fill systems intended for this climate.
- Corroded jamb anchors on retrofit openings. The original aluminum anchors that held the old jalousie frames corrode over time, especially where salt air and humidity combine. When we open the wall, those anchors often snap or crumble. We cut out the corroded steel, set new anchors, and flash the opening properly before the new impact unit goes in.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Edgewood, FL
Impact window and door pricing in Edgewood reflects the retrofit reality of a city where every home predates modern building code. A straightforward impact window replacement in Edgewood, where the existing opening is sound and the buck doesn’t need repair, runs $900 to $2,200 per opening installed, depending on size and glass package. Impact sliding glass doors run $3,800 to $9,500 installed, with the higher end covering reinforced tracks and laminated glass for airport noise. Impact entry doors typically run $3,200 to $7,700 installed, including buck repair and flashing.
What moves the price in Edgewood is the framing work you can’t see until the wall comes open. Rotted bucks, corroded anchors, and water-damaged stucco repair add real cost, and we write those allowances into the contract up front. When we find a surprise, we price it, show you the photo, and get your written approval before we touch it. No change order appears without your signature. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate that covers the actual condition of your openings, not a wishful number.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Edgewood
Edgewood sits beneath MCO’s approach and departure corridors, and FAA noise contour maps place portions of the city inside the 65 DNL zone. Homeowners here request STC 35 or higher because laminated impact glass with a thicker inner layer and a wider air space is the only practical way to cut that constant airport hum. A laminated glass package with a 1/4-inch outer lite, a 1/2-inch or wider argon-filled air space, and a 1/8-inch inner lite typically lands between STC 34 and 38. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll bring a decibel meter to your house so you can hear the difference before you buy.
Rotted wood bucks and corroded aluminum jamb anchors are the two most common findings. On a 1960s concrete block ranch, the original window was set into a wood buck that was never flashed with modern tape, so decades of rainwater have rotted the wood and rusted the anchors. That repair work is priced as an allowance in our original contract, and when we find it, we show you a photo, put the repair cost in writing, and get your signature before we proceed. Call (813) 320-9346 for a quote that includes those allowances up front.
Yes, you can replace jalousies with impact windows, but the opening usually needs modification. Jalousie frames are shallower than modern impact-rated units, so the rough opening typically has to be deepened or trimmed out, and the wood buck replaced if it has rotted. We do that work as part of the retrofit, and the result is an impact window with a real STC rating instead of a glass pane that rattles with every takeoff. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate on your specific openings.
Yes, and this is the biggest reason Edgewood retrofit quotes move from the original number. When we open a wall for an impact window permit inspection, the building department may require us to address exposed wiring that no longer meets code, add hurricane straps to the wall-to-roof connection if the original framing lacks them, or repair failed waterproofing before the opening is closed back up. We write those potential upgrades into the contract as line-item allowances, and we price any finding in writing before we touch it. Call (813) 320-9346 to talk through what your specific permit package will trigger.
Fog between the panes means the insulated glass unit’s seal failed, and the argon gas fill leaked out. Edgewood’s year-round humidity and intense UV exposure accelerate that failure on cheaper units with low-quality spacers. Once the seal fails, the window loses its insulating performance and you’re left with glass that only protects against impact, not heat or noise. We install impact units with quality spacer systems and gas fills designed for Central Florida, and both warranty layers are registered in writing before we leave. If you’re seeing fog now, call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll assess whether a glass replacement under warranty or a full unit swap is the better fix.
