If you own a home in North Miami built between the late 1940s and the mid-1970s, you’re likely living with original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows that were never designed for Miami-Dade County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Those windows leak conditioned air, corrode in the salt breeze off Biscayne Bay, and have become a line-item problem with your insurance carrier. TruePane Windows & Doors handles window and door replacement, installation, and repair across North Miami with a straight answer, a written quote, and a crew that arrives when we say we will. Call (754) 238-2201 and a live person picks up, day or night.

Why North Miami Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Our crews work the streets of North Miami regularly, from the canal-front homes of Keystone Point to the older blocks around Scott Lake and the rental corridors along NE 2nd Avenue. We know what a 1962 CBS rough opening looks like when you pull the old jalousie frame out, and we quote the job for what it actually takes, not what a window-size chart says it should take. Dale Kessler founded this company on a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Homeowners in North Miami call us because we show up with background-checked, uniformed technicians, measure every opening twice, and register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it’s backed by a Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in North Miami
Window Installation
We install new-construction and retrofit windows sized to North Miami’s older masonry openings, including custom buck framing where stock units won’t fit. Every unit we set is HVHZ-compliant and carries the Miami-Dade NOA your inspector will ask to see.
Learn more about our Window Installation in North Miami.
Door Installation
Entry doors, exterior doors, and impact-rated doors get set square, sealed against wind-driven rain, and fitted with hardware that won’t corrode in salt air. We measure rough openings, not door slabs, so the finished door actually clears the jamb in July.
Learn more about our Door Installation in North Miami.
Window Replacement
We remove jalousies, single-pane aluminum, and failed impact units, then set replacements that meet current HVHZ code. The quote covers the tear-out, the masonry preparation, the install, and the haul-away, so the number on the paper is the number on the bill.

Impact Windows & Doors
Impact Windows & Doors in North Miami are the single most common retrofit we perform, driven by insurance carriers requiring full opening protection on older homes. We quote manufacturer lines including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows in North Miami with Low-E glass and insulated frames cut the heat load in older CBS homes that soak up sun all afternoon. For North Miami houses, the right glass package also means better hurricane performance, since the same laminated glass that stops windborne debris also blocks a meaningful share of solar gain.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Salt air is hard on sliding door tracks and rollers. We replace and service Sliding & Patio Doors - North Miami with marine-grade hardware and stainless fasteners, because anything less rusts inside a few seasons.
Glass Railing Systems
For canal-front and elevated homes, we install Glass Railing Systems - North Miami that are engineered for wind load and code compliance. The glass is tempered, the hardware is stainless, and the install is plumb.
Custom Windows & Doors
Some North Miami openings don’t match any stock size, especially the larger fixed-glass expanses on Keystone Point canal homes. We order custom and oversized units to match the existing opening, with lead times stated up front and no surprises on delivery.
Neighborhoods We Serve in North Miami
We work across North Miami, and our crews know the difference between a 1950s CBS bungalow near the 33161 zip and a canal-front contemporary over in 33181. Typical response for estimates runs within one or two business days, with most jobs scheduled within the week.

Why North Miami’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
North Miami sits within a few miles of Biscayne Bay, which means persistent salt-laden air works on window frames and door hardware year-round. Standard aluminum extrusions and zinc-plated steel corrode faster here than they do a few miles inland, and we see it constantly on older homes where the original windows are pitted and the hardware is frozen. That’s why we default to marine-grade anodizing and stainless fasteners on exterior work in North Miami. It is not an upsell. It’s the difference between hardware that turns in five years and hardware that’s still turning in twenty.
Then there’s the housing stock itself. The bulk of North Miami’s single-family and small multifamily homes were built between roughly 1948 and 1975 as concrete block, or CBS, construction. The original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows were set into masonry rough openings that are frequently narrower than any modern stock impact unit. A homeowner who quotes the job based on window dimensions alone gets a rude surprise when the old frame comes out and the opening needs a site-built pressure-treated buck and re-stucco work before the new HVHZ-compliant frame can even be set. We quote that work up front because we’ve done it hundreds of times in North Miami.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in North Miami
Window and door pricing in North Miami depends on the opening, the product line, and the condition of the existing masonry, but here are honest ranges for planning purposes:
- Single impact window replacement: roughly $900 to $1,800 installed, depending on size and opening condition
- Impact entry door, installed: $2,200 to $4,500 depending on material and hardware
- Sliding patio door replacement: $2,800 to $6,000 depending on width and glazing
- Full-home impact retrofit on a 1,500-square-foot CBS home: commonly $18,000 to $35,000
- Glass railing systems: $250 to $450 per linear foot, installed
Every quote is line-itemed in writing before work starts. If the opening needs buck framing or re-stucco, that’s on the paper, not added later. We offer a free written repair estimate, a maintenance check, and a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll walk through the numbers for your specific house.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in North Miami
Most single impact window replacements in North Miami run between $900 and $1,800 installed, with the final number depending on opening condition and the manufacturer line you select. Older CBS homes with narrow rough openings may need buck framing, which we quote up front, never as a change order. Call (754) 238-2201 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
Yes, any window or exterior door replacement in North Miami requires a permit, and the products must carry a valid Miami-Dade County NOA for HVHZ compliance. TruePane pulls the permit, schedules the inspection, and provides the paperwork your insurer will ask for. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll explain exactly what your project needs.
In North Miami, many carriers are now canceling or surcharging policies on homes that lack full opening protection, especially on pre-1975 CBS construction with original jalousies. Installing impact-rated windows and doors is the most direct way to satisfy the mitigation requirements and qualify for wind-mitigation credits. We can quote the full retrofit and provide the product-approval documentation your agent needs.
Most individual window or door replacements are completed in a single visit, including removal, masonry prep, install, and haul-away. A full-home impact retrofit on a typical North Miami CBS home usually takes two to four working days depending on the opening count. We’ll give you a written schedule before work begins.
Salt-laden air from Biscayne Bay attacks standard aluminum extrusions and zinc-plated steel hardware far faster here than inland. We replace hardware with stainless steel and specify marine-grade anodized frames on exterior work in North Miami so the installation doesn’t repeat the failure. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll assess what’s on your house now.
If you’ve been putting off window or door work because the house is old, the openings are odd, or the insurance letter has been sitting on the counter, give us a call. We’ll send a technician who measures every opening twice and hands you a written quote with the full scope on paper. No surprises, no high-pressure pitch, no fine print. Call (754) 238-2201 to schedule your free estimate.

What North Miami Customers Say
"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."Our bay window had rotted at the sill and two other outfits wanted to talk us into a flat picture window instead. TruePane rebuilt the opening and matched the original look. Neighbors have knocked on the door about it."
- Gene A."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.
