CWS Windows & Doors in Tequesta, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors

We provide independent CWS window and door service across Tequesta, FL, from our Window Installation in Tequesta with full-frame impact retrofits on 1960s CBS ranch homes to hardware rebuilds on original jalousie units. The one thing that makes our CWS work here different: we plan every job around the Jupiter Inlet salt plume and the Palm Beach-Martin county line, two local realities that change what a CWS repair or replacement should cost and how it gets permitted.

Why Tequesta Residents Choose Us for CWS Service

Our crews have worked on hundreds of original CWS windows and our Door Installation in Tequesta across the area’s late-1950s-to-mid-1970s housing stock. We know the exact gutter, frame, and hardware failure points that develop decades after installation, because we have opened enough of them up to see what the salt air does from the inside. We are an independent repair and replacement service that specializes in CWS models. No factory affiliation pushing a full tear-out. Just an honest assessment of when a part is worth replacing and when you are better off putting that money toward a full impact-rated retrofit.

Dale Kessler, the owner, grew up in Kendall and trained at Miami Dade College’s vocational program, where he learned to read a rough opening the way a doctor reads an X-ray, slowly and without guessing. He has been measuring, sourcing, and setting windows and doors in South Florida for going on three decades. When a homeowner in Tequesta calls about a seized CWS jalousie crank or a fogged horizontal slider, the person answering the phone understands exactly what they are describing. Measure it right the first time, or plan on coming back.

Every job is covered by our Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. Background-checked, uniformed technicians. A live person answers every call, 24/7. No voicemail tree.

Common CWS Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Tequesta

• Pitted aluminum frames and seized jalousie hardware. Tequesta sits less than a mile from the Jupiter Inlet, and the tidal exchange pushes salt-laden air straight up the Loxahatchee River corridor. Original CWS aluminum frames here pit faster than the same models in inland Palm Beach County towns like Wellington or Royal Palm Beach. The crank mechanisms and pivot hardware seize up, and the fix starts with a careful teardown to see what is salvageable.
• Fogged or seal-failed insulating glass units in older CWS single-hung and horizontal sliders. Decades of coastal moisture intrusion breaks down the seals on the original insulated units. On a 1960s Tequesta ranch with three or more fogged panes, we are honest: you will spend less on a full impact-rated replacement than chasing seal failures one window at a time.
• Rotted sill pans and degraded wool-pile weatherstripping at bottom weep-corners. East-facing elevations in Tequesta take Intracoastal spray from both north and south. The original sill pans were not built for that, and the wool-pile wears down until it no longer seals. We replace sill pans with pressure-treated or composite framing as a baseline, not an upsell.
• Warped or frozen aluminum sash tracks on CBS ranch homes. Many original CWS openings in Tequesta were never flashed to modern sill-pan standards. Water migrates into the block wall, the track warps, and the sash binds. This is one of the most common calls we get from the village’s original ranch neighborhoods.
• Impact-rating gaps on original single-pane units. CWS windows installed in the 1960s and 1970s predate any wind-load or impact-resistance requirement. Homeowners preparing for a wind mitigation inspection or an insurance renewal often need a full-frame replacement to current Florida Product Approval standards.

CWS Service in Tequesta: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment

Here is the information-gain fact that changes how CWS service works in Tequesta specifically: the Palm Beach County / Martin County jurisdictional line bisects the northern edge of the village. A CWS window or door permit on roughly the northern third of Tequesta falls under Martin County’s building department, not Palm Beach County’s. A single project that crosses a property line can require two different building departments and two different wind-load interpretations for the same CWS product approval. We saw this happen on a Country Club Drive home, where we replaced the original CWS aluminum horizontal sliders with impact-rated CWS-compatible units. The Martin County inspector required a third-party uplift test before we could button up the stucco. We cleared it on the first pass because the original CWS product approval had been matched to Martin County’s coastal wind-speed map. If a crew assumes the whole village is one permit pull, the job stops cold. We do not make that assumption.

CWS Models & Products We Service in Tequesta

We service the CWS models common in Tequesta’s original build-out and later replacement installs. That includes the CWS Aluminum Single-Hung Series, the CWS Aluminum Horizontal Slider Series, the CWS Jalousie/Louvered Window Series, and the CWS Simulated Divided Light Impact Series. For older jalousie and slider hardware, we use the exact CWS OEM parts still available. When a sash or roller assembly is discontinued, we match a corrosion-resistant marine-grade aftermarket part with the same load and reveal dimensions. Our CWS sales & service team keeps the most common marine-grade hardware stocked locally so a Tequesta job does not sit waiting on a parts truck from out of state.
