Why Kendall Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
Kendall is our kind of place: long-term homeowners, concrete block houses, and a lot of people who remember Hurricane Andrew. We work in The Hammocks, Kendale Lakes, Country Walk, and West Kendall, and we hear the same thing on most visits: “The last contractor put in windows that fogged up two summers later, and now I can’t find him.” That’s precisely the situation Dale Kessler founded TruePane to fix in 2008. He had spent years in the glazing trade watching out-of-true installs and unregistered warranties leave homeowners holding fogged glass and a voided guarantee. So we built the company around a different rule: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Every TruePane job in Kendall carries the Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing, with durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. There is no fine print that covers neither. We are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. When we quote, we put the lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying and what the warranty actually says. If we say we stand behind it, we mean the work, the warranty, and the promise, all in writing.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Kendall
Window Installation
New window installation in Kendall is a different trade than most of the country because of Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements. Every unit we install carries the correct Miami-Dade NOA approval for the opening it’s going into, and we register both warranty layers before we leave. If you’re planning a window project, this is where you start.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Kendall services.
Door Installation
Kendall homes lean heavily on sliding glass doors and patio doors that face west toward the afternoon sun. A door that binds in July or lets wind-driven rain through the sill pan in August isn’t just an annoyance; it’s a code issue in HVHZ territory. We install and replace entry doors, sliding doors, and French doors with frames set true and sills flashed the way Miami-Dade will inspect.
Learn more about our Door Installation in Kendall services.
Window Replacement
Most of Kendall’s housing stock went up between the mid-1970s and the mid-1990s, which means a lot of insulated glass units are now at the age where seals fail and laminated interlayers start to delaminate. Replacement is often the better move than patching a fogged IGU, especially when the original frame is single-pane aluminum or jalousie. We replace glass and full openings, and we’ll tell you honestly which one your house needs.

Impact Windows & Doors
Kendall sits entirely within Miami-Dade County’s HVHZ, so impact windows and doors are about code, not preference. We install Miami-Dade NOA-approved impact products from manufacturers including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, and we’ll explain the difference between a NOA sticker and a Florida Product Approval number before any money changes hands. Your house either passes inspection or it doesn’t; we build for the first outcome.

Energy-Efficient Windows
That South Florida sun does more than fade upholstery: it degrades vinyl lineals, oxidizes aluminum frames, and forces your AC to work harder every afternoon. Energy-efficient windows with low-E glass and proper frame materials cut the solar heat gain and the electric bill. We quote manufacturer options side by side so you can compare the numbers on paper, not in a sales pitch.
Learn more about energy-efficient options in Kendall when you call (954) 507-3613 for a free estimate.
Sliding & Patio Doors
Pre-Andrew Kendall homes frequently still have original single-pane aluminum sliding glass doors that don’t meet current HVHZ code. Replacing them with impact-rated sliding or patio doors changes the way your house handles wind, rain, and the heat that pours through old glass. We measure twice, set the track true, and register the warranties before we leave.
Learn more about sliding and patio door replacement in Kendall by calling (954) 507-3613.
Glass Railing Systems
If your Kendall home has a second-story balcony, terrace, or pool deck, glass railing systems give you the view without the maintenance of traditional railings. We install frameless and semi-frameless glass railing that meets Miami-Dade load requirements. The glass is tempered, the hardware is stainless, and the install is done by the same crews who handle our impact window work.
Learn more about glass railing systems in Kendall when you call (954) 507-3613.
Custom Windows & Doors
Some Kendall homes have openings that no stock unit will fit: arched windows, floor-to-ceiling glass, or a door that was framed in a way that makes sense only to the original builder. We handle custom windows and doors made to the opening, not the other way around. The manufacturer builds to spec, and we install to our own standard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.

Why Kendall’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Kendall is ground zero for the post-Andrew rebuild cycle. When Hurricane Andrew came through in 1992, it tore through Kendall and triggered a massive replacement wave through the mid-1990s. Those impact windows and doors that felt brand-new in 1995 are now 30 years old, and they’re hitting the age where insulated glass unit seals fail and laminated interlayers delaminate. A technician who knows Kendall learns to check whether a home’s impact windows carry a Miami-Dade NOA sticker versus only a Florida Product Approval number. Contractors who installed cheaper Florida-only-approved products in the 1990s left homeowners with units that cannot pass current HVHZ re-inspection, so an unpermitted “upgrade” from that era can actually require a full tearout and legal replacement when the home is sold or re-roofed.
The housing stock itself compounds the issue. Kendall is overwhelmingly concrete block and stucco construction, with homes built between the mid-1970s and mid-1990s across large master-planned subdivisions like The Hammocks and Kendale Lakes. Pre-Andrew homes frequently still have original single-pane aluminum sliding glass doors and, in some older units, jalousie windows. Neither meets current HVHZ code. That means full opening replacement, not just a glass swap, is the standard job in this area.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Kendall
Impact window replacement in Kendall typically runs $1,100 to $2,800 per opening, depending on size, glass package, and manufacturer line. That price includes NOA-approved products, installation, and both warranty layers registered in writing. For an exact quote on your openings, call (954) 507-3613 for a free estimate.
Yes. Kendall sits entirely within Miami-Dade County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which mandates Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance approval for every window and door installed. A Florida Statewide Product Approval number is not sufficient in Kendall, and units with only that approval can fail HVHZ re-inspection. We install NOA-approved products from manufacturers including PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, and we verify the paperwork before the truck leaves your driveway.
In most cases, yes. A TruePane technician can inspect your existing impact windows for failed IGU seals, delaminating laminated interlayers, and whether the units carry a Miami-Dade NOA sticker or only a Florida Product Approval number. If the NOA sticker is missing or the product was never NOA-approved, the windows may need full replacement to pass inspection when you sell or re-roof. Call (954) 507-3613 to schedule an inspection.
No. TruePane provides upfront pricing with no surprise line items on the bill. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and the price we give you is the price you pay. If we find something unexpected during the job, we stop and talk to you before proceeding. You’ll never get a bill with figures we didn’t discuss first.
Yes, we handle the permitting process for window and door installation in Kendall, including all Miami-Dade County HVHZ requirements. Permits are pulled before work begins, and inspections are passed before we consider the job done. If you want to know exactly what’s involved for your specific project, call (954) 507-3613 and we’ll walk you through it.
If your Kendall home’s windows or doors are due for replacement, or if you just want a straight answer about impact product NOA approvals, call TruePane Windows & Doors at (954) 507-3613. A live person answers 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

What Kendall Customers Say
"Impact windows on the whole house. They handled the permit, the inspection, and gave me a folder with every approval number for the insurance company. My windstorm premium dropped enough to notice."
