AfterFast, Reliable Window Installation Across Sunrise
Window installation in Sunrise, FL means working inside one of the most code-driven markets in the country. Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone designation applies to every permitted opening, and most of the city’s housing stock dates to the 1970s and early 1980s, which means original aluminum single-pane and jalousie windows are everywhere. TruePane Windows & Doors has spent years replacing those exact windows in Sunrise Lakes, Welleby, and the townhome clusters off Nob Hill Road. We know what the inspectors look for, what the condo associations require, and what it takes to get the job done right the first time. Call (772) 577-2915 for a free estimate.
The team at Window Installation handles everything from single openings to full-unit replacements, and we’ve built our Sunrise schedule around the two-approval reality that defines this city. Broward County issues the permit. The condo board issues its own approval. Both have to clear before a single screw comes out of a frame.
Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Sunrise’s Preferred Window Installation Company
TruePane has been installing windows and doors in South Florida since 2008, and Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 to fix the problems he kept seeing: out-of-true installs, voided warranties, and crews that disappeared after the check cleared. Sunrise homeowners call us because we answer the phone with a live person, every time, 24 hours a day. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form. A person who knows the difference between a Sunrise Lakes Phase I unit and a home in the Savannah neighborhood off West Oakland Park Boulevard.
Our background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice and quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, so you see exactly what you’re buying and what it costs before you commit. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every job in Sunrise, from a single garden window in a Lauderdale Lakes-adjacent townhome to a full set of impact casements in a Sunrise Lakes condo.
What builds trust in Sunrise specifically is that we understand the HOA approval process here. We’ve seen jobs stall for two weeks because a crew showed up with a county permit but no architectural board sign-off. We submit both applications the same morning. We build the review lag into the schedule. We’ll be there when we say.
Our Window Installation Services in Sunrise
Most Sunrise homes need impact-rated products that carry a valid Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or Florida Product Approval. These are the four services we handle most often in this city.
Casement Windows
Impact-rated casement windows are our most common installation in Sunrise Lakes and similar condo phases. They seal tightly against wind-driven rain, they meet Broward County’s HVHZ requirements, and they give you a clean, modern look that most association boards approve without argument. A typical impact-rated casement window in Sunrise runs $900 to $1,800 per opening installed, depending on size and manufacturer. The Andersen and Pella casement lines are the most requested in this market because their NOA documentation is straightforward and inspectors know them.
Awning Windows
Awning windows work well in Sunrise bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms where space is tight and ventilation matters. They hinge at the top, shed water naturally during afternoon thunderstorms, and pair well with fixed picture windows. In Sunrise, you’ll pay between $500 and $1,100 per awning window installed, depending on whether you choose PGT, Andersen, or a mid-tier manufacturer. Most units we install go into concrete block openings, which means we check for rotted wood bucks before the new frame goes in.
Fixed & Picture Windows
Fixed picture windows are common in single-family tract homes from the 1970s and 1980s, and many Sunrise owners replace them with impact-rated versions that hold up during high wind events. These are also the windows where we see the most failed seals, especially on west-facing elevations that take the full afternoon sun. A typical impact-rated fixed window in Sunrise runs $800 to $2,400 installed, depending on glass package and frame material. Low-E glass with argon fill is worth the upgrade here, because Sunrise afternoon heat is relentless.
Single & Double Hung
Single- and double-hung windows are the standard in Sunrise townhomes and single-family homes where owners want a traditional look without sacrificing performance. We can walk you through both vinyl and aluminum frame options from Marvin and Milgard, among others. A typical double-hung in Sunrise runs $600 to $1,500 per opening, depending on size, impact rating, and glass package. If you’re replacing original aluminum single-pane units, expect to address frame condition at the same time, because 40-plus years of South Florida humidity takes a toll.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
TruePane is an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, and CGI. For Sunrise customers, we typically recommend PGT or CGI for impact-rated work in condo buildings where the association wants uniformity, and Andersen or Marvin for single-family homes where the owner wants a specific look and wood interior options. We don’t lock you into one brand. We quote side by side on paper, with real prices, and we register both warranty layers in writing before we leave your driveway. Most Sunrise jobs we handle are completed in a single visit with no surprise line items on the bill.
Common Window Installation Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Dual-approval stalls: The county permit gets issued, but the condo association’s architectural board hasn’t signed off, and the crew gets turned away at the door. We file both applications simultaneously and schedule around the HOA’s review timeline so the job doesn’t stall.
- Non-compliant products: A cheaper quote uses a non-impact window or a product without a valid Miami-Dade NOA. The inspector fails the final, and the homeowner is left with an opening that can’t be insured or sold. We only install NOA-approved products in Sunrise.
- Rotted wood bucks behind old frames: Original jalousie windows leak for decades into concrete block, and the wood framing behind them rots. Installing new windows over those rotted bucks seals in the moisture. We reframe when needed and flash the jambs before the new window goes in.
- Failed seals on original single-pane units: Many Sunrise condos still have original single-pane sliders and fixed windows with failed seals, especially on west-facing elevations. The glass fogs, energy bills climb, and the unit won’t pass an insurance inspection. Replacement is the fix, not glass-only repair.

FAQs - Window Installation in Sunrise
Do I need both a Broward County permit and my Sunrise Lakes condo association’s approval to replace my windows?
Yes. In Sunrise, any window replacement that touches the opening requires a Broward County permit under the HVHZ code, and most condo associations in Sunrise Lakes and similar communities also require architectural board approval for frame color and style. The two processes run on separate timelines, and both must clear before installation begins. We file both applications the same day and build the HOA review period into our schedule so you don’t get stuck waiting. Call (772) 577-2915 for an exact quote.
Why does Sunrise require impact-rated windows even though I’m miles from the ocean?
Sunrise falls entirely within Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone under the Florida Building Code, regardless of distance from the Atlantic. Design wind speeds in this area exceed 150 mph, and the code requires every permitted window opening to carry impact-resistant glazing or shutters. Insurers and lenders in Sunrise are also actively requiring impact-rated windows at renewal and resale, so a non-impact product can cost you more than the savings on the front end.
My original jalousie windows are still working - can I just replace the glass?
In most Sunrise condos, the answer is no, not if you want to stay compliant. Original jalousie windows are typically single-pane aluminum units that don’t meet current HVHZ impact requirements, and glass-only replacement leaves you with a non-compliant, non-impact opening that an inspector or insurer will flag. The practical fix is full sash and frame replacement with an impact-rated product. We’ll quote the options side by side so you can see what each one costs.
How do I know if my existing sliding glass door in a Sunrise condo has a failed seal?
If the glass looks foggy or hazy even after cleaning, if you see moisture trapped between the panes, or if the door is difficult to slide in the summer months, you likely have a failed seal. This is common in Sunrise because original single-pane sliders from the 1970s weren’t built for 40-plus years of heat and humidity. We replace them with impact-rated sliders that meet current code, and we check the frame condition before the new unit goes in.
Will replacing my Sunrise Lakes condo windows really lower my energy bills?
Yes, and the difference is measurable. Original single-pane aluminum windows in Sunrise Lakes units conduct heat directly into the living space, and west-facing units take the worst of it from about 2 p.m. onward. Impact-rated windows with low-E glass and argon fill cut that heat gain significantly, which means your air conditioner doesn’t work as hard. Most owners see a noticeable reduction in summer cooling costs, and the new windows also eliminate the drafts and air leaks that come with 1970s jalousie frames.
