Hollywood isn’t just another Broward service stop for us. The housing stock here has its own particular problems, and we’ll get into exactly what we find when we open these walls. This page is written for homeowners who want to know what actually happens during an impact replacement in an older Hollywood house, not a bullet list of product features.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Hollywood’s Preferred Impact Windows & Doors Company
We’ve spent years working on Hollywood’s concrete block ranch homes and beach-corridor condos, and we know what hides inside these walls. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 on a single rule that still governs every job: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That means when we set an impact window in a Hollywood home, the rough opening is squared, shimmed, and sealed before the unit ever leaves the truck, because we know what salt air and sixty years of settlement do to these openings.
Hollywood homeowners consistently tell us the same thing: they want a company that answers the phone, shows up when it says it will, and stands behind the work. That’s how we’ve built our name in Hollywood Hills, Emerald Hills, and West Hollywood. We’re not a franchise operation running crews through on volume. We hire local, train apprentices into journeymen, and run background-checked, uniformed technicians who measure every opening twice and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper.
Every job is covered by the 90-Day Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. No fine print, no arguing. We’ll be there when we say, and the work gets done right the first visit or we make it right at no charge.
This page is built around what opening up an older Hollywood home actually turns up: outdated wiring, undersized or damaged framing, failed waterproofing, and the code upgrades a permit triggers once walls are open. That’s the single biggest reason an impact replacement quote moves, and we handle it with inspection first, allowances written into the contract, and any surprise priced and approved in writing before we touch it.
Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Hollywood
We provide Impact Windows & Doors installation, replacement, and service across Hollywood, with particular depth in the work this city’s aging housing stock actually requires.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Most of the homes we work on in Hollywood Hills and West Hollywood are 1950s-1970s concrete block ranches that still carry original single-pane aluminum or jalousie windows. Those units don’t meet High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) product-approval standards, and most modern homeowner policies won’t insure them. We replace them with HVHZ-approved impact units from manufacturers like PGT and CGI, set into openings we repair and square before the new window goes in. A typical impact window replacement in a Hollywood CBS home runs $900-$1,800 per opening for standard sizes, with larger picture windows and specialty shapes climbing from there.

Impact Sliding Glass Doors
In Hollywood Beach’s mid-rise condos, the sliding glass door is often the original unit from the 1960s or 1970s, embedded directly into the concrete structure. Salt-laden moisture has been working on that embedment for fifty years. We see pitted tracks, seized rollers, and frames that have pulled away from the slab, and the rough opening typically needs concrete repair before a new impact-rated slider can be set. Expect $2,200-$4,500 for a standard 2-panel impact sliding glass door in Hollywood, depending on size, finish, and the extent of opening repair.

Impact Entry & French Doors
Front entries in Hollywood’s older ranches are often overlooked until a storm season forces the issue. We replace entry and French doors with impact-rated units that meet HVHZ code and actually seal properly against the salt air that accelerates frame corrosion east of Dixie Highway. A new impact entry door system typically runs $2,800-$5,500 depending on configuration, sidelights, and hardware grade.

Impact Garage Doors
Garage doors are the largest opening in most Hollywood homes, and a non-rated garage door in a storm can compromise the entire structure. We install braced and impact-rated garage doors that meet current Broward County wind-load requirements, with pricing from $2,500-$6,000 depending on door size, material, and reinforcement requirements.

Wind Mitigation & Code Compliance
This is the part most Hollywood homeowners don’t know they need until they’re mid-project. Hollywood sits entirely within Florida’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the strictest wind-borne debris designation in the country. Every window and door replacement here must be independently product-approved to HVHZ standards, not merely labeled Florida Approved. When we pull the permit for your impact replacement, Broward County inspects against that HVHZ standard, and any opening that doesn’t meet it fails.
More importantly, when we open a wall in these 1950s-1970s concrete block homes, we regularly find conditions the permit triggers a correction on: outdated wiring exposed in the rough opening, undersized header framing, failed waterproofing at the sill. We handle this by inspecting first, writing realistic allowances into the contract before work starts, and pricing any surprise in writing for your approval before we touch it. No one sees a line item appear on the final bill that wasn’t approved first.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, and PGT, and we quote side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying and what each line costs. If you’ve got an existing Andersen or Pella unit in a Hollywood home and want it serviced rather than replaced, our technicians stock common replacement hardware for those lines locally. We also work with CGI for the HVHZ-rated coastal work east of Dixie Highway where marine-grade frames aren’t an upsell but a functional requirement. The goal is always the same: give you a square deal on paper, then do the work as quoted.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Hollywood Homes
- Salt oxidation on aluminum frames east of Dixie Highway. We routinely find frames installed as recently as the 1990s that are pitted, seized, and pulling away from the concrete block wall. This failure shows up 10-15 years earlier in Hollywood than in inland Broward cities, and often means the rough opening itself needs repair before a new unit can be set.
- Original jalousie windows in 1950s-1970s ranch homes. These are the most common window we replace in Hollywood Hills and West Hollywood. They fail modern wind-borne debris code, most insurers won’t touch them, and the replacement work often uncovers hidden framing and wiring corrections the permit requires.
- Failed waterproofing around beach-corridor condo sliders. On Hollywood Beach, salt-laden moisture gets behind the waterproofing on aging mid-rise sliders and corrodes the embedments in the concrete structure. By the time the seal fails and water starts showing up inside, the frame has usually been compromised for years.
- Windows that bind in July and leak in August. The combination of Atlantic humidity and concrete block construction means openings shift with temperature and moisture. A window set out of true will bind in the heat and leak in the wet season. We square and seal every opening before the new unit is set, so the door closes in July like it does in January.
Pricing for Impact Windows & Doors in Hollywood, FL
Here’s what Hollywood homeowners actually pay. Per-opening pricing for impact windows runs $900-$1,800 for most standard sizes, with larger fixed-glass and architectural shapes from $1,500-$2,800. Impact sliding glass doors run $2,200-$4,500. Impact entry doors run $2,800-$5,500 with sidelights and hardware.

A full-home impact replacement on a typical 1,600-square-foot Hollywood CBS ranch, covering 8-12 openings, commonly lands between $18,000 and $45,000, including the rare cases where we find significant hidden framing damage once walls are open. What moves these numbers: opening square footage, how many openings you have, what condition the rough framing is in, and whether we find the salt-corrosion issues common east of Dixie Highway or the wiring corrections a permit triggers when walls open.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Because many 1950s-1970s CBS homes still have original wiring run through the exterior walls, and when we open an opening to replace a window, that wiring is exposed and must be brought to current code if it’s degraded, ungrounded, or obstructing the new opening. In Hollywood specifically, decades of humidity and salt intrusion have left a lot of that wiring brittle. The fix is straightforward: we inspect first, write the allowance into the contract, and get written approval for any permitted wiring correction before it’s done. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll walk you through what your home likely has.
The rough opening itself is the most common hidden problem. East of Dixie Highway in Hollywood, salt oxidation has typically pitted the aluminum frames and pulled them away from the concrete block wall, and by the time we remove the old window, the opening framing is undersized, corroded, or both. We rebuild the opening square and true before the new impact unit is set, and that repair is priced in writing before we start. That’s the difference between a window that insures and one that leaks in two seasons.
They’re genuinely uninsurable under most modern homeowner policies. Jalousie windows don’t meet HVHZ wind-borne debris standards, they don’t hold a pressure rating, and they leak water and air by design. If your Hollywood home still has them, your insurer has likely already flagged the issue or will at the next renewal. Replacement is the standard fix, and the work often uncovers hidden framing and wiring corrections. Call (813) 320-9346 for an honest assessment of what your particular openings will cost.
We inspect the opening before we quote, write a realistic allowance for framing repair into the contract, and if we find something beyond that allowance, we stop and price the correction in writing for your approval before any additional work is done. You approve the number, we do the work, and the line item matches what you signed. No surprises, no arguing, and if the pane isn’t true when we’re done, the job isn’t done.
Because the salt air works on the embedments continuously. On Hollywood Beach, sliding glass doors are set directly into the concrete slab, and fifty years of salt-laden moisture has been corroding the frame, the track, and the embedment points the entire time. The failure shows up as seal leaks, water intrusion, and rollers that seize. Most of those units need the rough opening repaired before a new impact slider can be set, and we price that opening repair in writing before we start. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate on your specific building.
