Westlight Windows & Doors is the window company Burbank homeowners call when original 1940s steel casements finally give out or the jet rumble from Hollywood Burbank Airport starts rattling the aluminum frames on Verdugo. We handle window replacement, window installation, and door installation across Burbank, with written pricing before any work begins and a guarantee that actually gets honored. Call (903) 354-7134 to talk through what you’re seeing.
Why Burbank Homes Are Different
Burbank’s housing stock is not like the rest of the Valley. Most of the single-family homes between Magnolia Park and the Rancho district went up between 1940 and 1965, built fast for Lockheed workers, and many still carry their original steel casement or single-pane aluminum windows in rough openings that do not match anything at a big-box store. That means off-the-shelf sizing fails here more often than it works, and custom fabrication is the norm rather than the exception.
Then there’s the heat. Burbank sits in a valley trap that regularly tops 105°F in summer, so low-e glass and properly sealed door thresholds are not upgrades, they’re survival features. And the Santa Ana winds push hard against weatherstripping every fall, cycling pressure on seals and sweeps in ways coastal installers rarely see. Add in the constant vibration from Runway 15 approach traffic over streets north of Magnolia, and you get window seals that fail early and sashes that loosen from fatigue. Those blocks need hardware and glazing tape spec’d for vibration, not just temperature.
Our Main Burbank Services
Most Burbank homeowners call us for one of three things: replacing a failed original window, installing new-construction or retrofit units during a remodel or addition, or swapping out an entry or patio door that’s leaking air. Each has its own page with local pricing and process detail.
Window Replacement in Burbank
Replacing the original single-pane units in a Burbank mid-century home usually means custom sizing, because the old rough openings were framed by hand and never matched a standard chart. We also see a lot of seal failure under the airport approach corridor, where vibration compromises older glazing faster than the heat alone would. See Window Replacement in Burbank for full local pricing and what to expect.
Window Installation in Burbank
When Burbank homeowners add a room or redo an exterior, they often need new-construction windows installed in fresh framing. The permitting reality in the Magnolia Park and Rancho districts matters here: historic-district overlays can require specific exterior styles, and we’ve done enough of these to know what the city plan checker is going to ask for before you submit. See Window Installation in Burbank for details on the process and written quote.
Door Installation in Burbank
Front doors in Burbank take a beating from the summer heat, and threshold seals wear out faster on the windward side of the house during Santa Ana season. A well-installed door with a properly compression-fitted sweep makes an immediate difference in hallway temperature. Whether it’s a fiberglass entry door or a patio slider, see Door Installation in Burbank for local pricing ranges.

Brands We Service in Burbank
We install and service products from eight manufacturer lines, and for Burbank’s climate we lean on the brands that hold up to heat and pressure cycling: CGI for impact-rated performance, ECO Window Systems for low-e efficiency, and CWS and ES Windows for custom sizing on older openings. We keep common replacement parts and glazing materials stocked at our Los Angeles office, so most Burbank repairs don’t wait on a cross-country shipment. See our brands for the full lineup.

Whatever the job, you get a written price before any work starts, and that price does not change at the door. We put it in writing. It stays that way.

- Colette Rhee"Got quotes from three companies. Westlight wasn't the cheapest but they were the only one who measured everything carefully and put it all in writing. Worth it. No surprises on install day."
- Craig Dillard"Our sliding patio door had come off its track years ago and we just lived with it. New one is smooth as butter. They hauled off the old one and vacuumed up before they left."
