Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Tequesta’s Preferred Sliding & Patio Doors Company

Tequesta homeowners tend to be particular about their houses. Many of you bought these homes in the 1980s and 1990s, raised families here, and watched neighbors cycle through cheap door installs that failed in five years. That’s the customer we built this company for. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 because he kept seeing the same thing across Palm Beach County: out-of-true installs, voided warranties, and homeowners stuck arguing with a company that stopped answering the phone. We answer. A live person, 24 hours a day, every day.

Our technicians working in Tequesta are background-checked and uniformed, and they measure every opening twice before a quote goes on paper. We don’t send a sales rep with a binder of upgrades. We send someone who has set hundreds of sliding doors and knows that the difference between a door that glides and a door that fights you two years later is the sill flashing and the hardware grade. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every Tequesta job, whether it’s a $400 track repair or a $9,000 panoramic impact slider on the river.

Our Sliding & Patio Doors Services in Tequesta

Patio Sliding Doors

Standard two-panel and three-panel patio sliders are the workhorse of Tequesta’s 1960s and 70s CBS ranch homes. Most original sliders here are aluminum-framed, single-pane, and non-impact-rated. When the track gets pitted from salt air and the rollers seize, you can’t just swap the panel; the frame needs full attention. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying. PGT, CGI, and Ply Gem are common choices for Tequesta’s wind zone, and we install all three.

Panoramic Sliding Systems

For the newer riverfront and Intracoastal builds along Riverside Drive and the north end of the village, panoramic sliders with multi-panel stacking or pocketed glass walls are the standard. These are big openings, sometimes 12 to 20 feet wide, and the engineering matters. In Tequesta, any panoramic system needs marine-grade stainless hardware as a baseline, not an option. Salt-laden air from the Jupiter Inlet gets pushed up the Loxahatchee corridor and settles on everything. We specify hardware that won’t pit, and we set the sill with a drain plane that sheds water away from the threshold, not behind the track.

Heavy-Duty Sliding Doors

Heavy-duty sliders carry panels that weigh two to three times what a standard patio door does. That’s the reality of impact glass in a 10-foot opening. Older Tequesta homes on concrete slabs often need the header checked before a heavy panel gets hung. We look at the lintel, the jamb anchors, and the existing flashing before we ever quote. On a ranch home off Riverside Drive, we replaced a corroded jalousie-style aluminum sliding door with an impact-rated panoramic slider with marine-grade stainless hardware and a composite sill pan. The original 1960s track had seized from salt air off the Loxahatchee, so we pulled full permits through Palm Beach County, flashed the new fusion-welded frame with butyl tape, and re-set the drain plane on the concrete slab so water sheds away from the threshold. That’s the work this page is about. Done right, in writing, and still gliding ten years later.

Pocket & Barn Doors

Pocket doors in Tequesta’s 1960s CBS homes usually live in a concrete block wall, which changes everything about the install. You can’t just frame a pocket cavity into block without addressing the lintel and the shear value of that wall. We’ve done enough of these in Tequesta to know which walls will take a pocket and which won’t, and we’ll tell you before you spend money on a door that doesn’t fit your framing. Barn doors are simpler, but they still need proper track anchoring and a header that carries the load. We quote both honestly.

Trusted Brands We Service in Tequesta

TruePane is an authorized installer for over a dozen manufacturer lines, and for Tequesta’s salt-air exposure we lean on PGT, CGI, and Ply Gem for impact-rated sliders and panoramic systems. We stock common track assemblies, roller hardware, and weatherstripping for these lines, which means a repair call in Tequesta doesn’t wait two weeks on a parts shipment. If your existing door is one of these brands, we service it. If it’s an older line that’s no longer made, we’ll tell you that flat out and quote a replacement that actually fits the opening.

Common Sliding & Patio Doors Problems We See in Tequesta Homes

• Salt-pitted track and seized rollers. The air off the Jupiter Inlet carries enough salt to pit aluminum track and bind roller hardware within five to ten years. Doors that were smooth when installed become a two-handed shove, and that strain eventually bends the frame.
• Non-impact sliders failing wind-load inspection. Tequesta’s original 1960s housing stock predates Florida Product Approval requirements. When you renovate or sell, many of those old single-pane sliders won’t pass wind-load review, and you’re looking at a full-frame replacement, not a glass swap.
• Improper sill flashing on concrete slabs. A lot of original Tequesta sliders were set without a proper sill pan. Runoff pools behind the track, rots the adjacent framing, and leaves mildew on the interior jamb. You see it after a heavy summer rain when the carpet or tile near the door feels damp.
• Fog between the panes. Failed seals are common in older insulated glass along the Loxahatchee corridor. The humidity and salt work on the sealant. When you get fog, the glass unit is done, and on most old sliders the frame’s not far behind.
