When a jalousie window won’t close tight or an exterior door binds against its frame in Pine Lakes, the problem usually isn’t the hardware. It’s the opening. Most homes here were built between the late 1970s and early 1990s, and they were built around non-standard window rough openings and 32-inch door widths that big-box replacement stock simply doesn’t fit. TruePane Windows & Doors works with Pine Lakes homeowners to measure every opening twice, source the right manufactured-home-compatible sizes, and install windows and doors that close square and seal tight. Call (813) 320-9346 and a live person answers, any hour, any day.

Why Pine Lakes Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
We’re led by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier, and the standard he set in 2008 still governs every job we take: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule matters in Pine Lakes because the housing here doesn’t forgive sloppy work. Thin wall depths, aluminum frames, and manufactured-home tolerances mean a window that’s off by a quarter inch becomes a leak in August and a draft in January. Homeowners in the Rolling Greens and Pine Run neighborhoods call us because our technicians arrive in uniform, background-checked, and prepared to quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper before any work begins. A live person answers our phone 24/7, not a voicemail tree. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our South Florida office, and crews serve Pine Lakes locally.
Every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves the driveway. We stand behind it. That’s the deal Dale put on the whiteboard, and it’s still the deal today.

Why Pine Lakes’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Pine Lakes is an inland Marion County community, so windows here don’t face salt spray like coastal units do. What they do face is north-central Florida’s high summer humidity followed by intense afternoon thunderstorms, and that combination is rough on the aluminum frames and single-pane glass common in this housing stock. Sustained interior condensation is a recurring complaint among long-term residents, especially in homes built during the late 1970s and early 1990s with original insulation glazing. Seal failure shows up as fog between panes; corrosion shows up as frames that stick. Neither gets better with time. But there’s another factor unique to Pine Lakes: many of these older manufactured homes still have original jalousie windows, the louvered glass style that offers almost no thermal or security performance. Sourcing drop-in jalousie replacements has become nearly impossible, so our technicians routinely quote jalousie-to-casement conversions. Homeowners are often surprised to learn modern alternatives exist that fit the same opening.
Because Pine Lakes sits roughly 70 miles from the Gulf with no coastal exposure, contractors must still meet Florida Building Code wind-load ratings, but without the Miami-Dade NOA requirements that dominate South Florida bids. That creates a distinct mid-tier product market: certified wind-rated windows that cost less than coastal impact lines but perform far better than the original glass in these homes.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Pine Lakes
Window replacement in Pine Lakes typically runs $85 to $145 per square foot installed, depending on whether the home is manufactured or site-built and what frame material is required. Door installation ranges from $700 to $1,900 for a standard exterior door, with custom or impact-rated units running higher. Jalousie-to-casement conversions usually land between $450 and $950 per opening, labor included. We don’t pad the bill and we don’t surprise you at the end. Our pricing is upfront, in writing, with no change orders unless you ask for them. We also honor a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, and our maintenance check covers alignment, seal inspection, and hardware adjustment for existing windows and doors.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Pine Lakes
Most Pine Lakes window replacements run between $85 and $145 per square foot installed, with jalousie-to-casement conversions starting around $450 per opening. The exact figure depends on frame material, glass package, and whether the home is manufactured or site-built. Call (813) 320-9346 for a written line-item quote, free.
No. We quote fixed pricing with no change orders, unless you request additional work. The number on the estimate is the number on the bill. If we find hidden rot or a bad rough opening, we show you before touching anything and agree on the fix before proceeding.
Yes, and it’s one of the most common jobs we do in Pine Lakes. Drop-in jalousie replacements are nearly impossible to source now, so we quote casement or fixed-pane conversions that fit the same opening and improve both security and insulation. Most conversions are completed in a single visit.
Pine Lakes is about 70 miles inland, so Miami-Dade NOA impact products are not required by code here. However, Florida Building Code wind-load ratings still apply, and many homeowners choose mid-tier wind-rated windows for storm protection without paying coastal impact prices. We carry both, and we’ll quote them side by side.
Most window and door replacements in Pine Lakes are completed in one visit, usually within a day for standard openings. Custom orders add lead time, which we state in writing before you sign. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll give you an honest timeline.

What Pine Lakes Customers Say
"French doors to the patio, custom size because this house was built in 1961 and nothing is standard. Measured twice, three weeks to fabricate like they warned, and the install day they laid runners over my floors without being asked."
- Marie S."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.
