AfterWindow Company in Delray Beach, FL
Most window and door work in Delray Beach costs more than homeowners expect, because this city’s housing stock and coastal location create conditions that generic contractors rarely price for. We walk into 1950s CBS ranch homes in Lake Ida with original single-pane aluminum frames, and we walk into 1970s A1A condos with salt-eaten storefront assemblies. Neither is a simple glass swap. If you’re researching window or door work here, call (903) 354-7134 and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Delray Beach Homes Are Different
Delray Beach sits directly on the Atlantic, and the salt air does real damage. Properties within a mile of A1A see aluminum frames oxidize and pit years before manufacturer estimates say they should. Hardware corrodes. Rollers bind. A window that would last 25 years inland might look rough after 12 here. That changes what we recommend: in coastal Delray Beach, we steer homeowners toward impact-rated products with corrosion-resistant hardware, not because it’s an upsell, but because the alternative fails early.
The city’s older housing stock creates a second layer. East of Federal Highway, neighborhoods like Tropic Palms, Lake Ida, and the Pines are full of 1950s through 1970s concrete block and stucco ranches. Most still have their original single-pane aluminum windows, which predate Florida’s post-Hurricane Andrew glazing codes. When you pull a permit for any window work on those homes, Palm Beach County code places you in the Wind-Borne Debris Region. That means impact-resistant glazing or approved storm panels, which is a bigger scope than many owners plan for. We price that honestly up front so there are no surprises at the permit counter.
Our Main Delray Beach Services
The two calls we get most from Delray Beach homeowners are for replacing failed original windows and installing impact-rated units before storm season arrives. Here’s what each involves locally.
Window Replacement in Delray Beach
Replacement work here usually means pulling original aluminum single-panes out of a CBS ranch or a 1970s condo and putting in code-compliant impact or high-performance glass. In Lake Ida and Dell Park, we regularly find 1960s jalousie windows still in service on Florida rooms; the moment any permitted window work gets pulled on the same structure, those jalousies trigger a code upgrade and the scope widens. We’ll tell you that before you sign anything. Window Replacement in Delray Beach
Window Installation in Delray Beach
New window installation in Delray Beach typically means full-frame work: rough-opening prep, flashing, and setting the new unit so it passes wind-load inspection. Coastal buildings a mile or less from the beach usually need impact glazing per Palm Beach County’s Wind-Borne Debris Region rules, and we carry PGT and CGI lines that meet that requirement without a fight. If you’re adding or enlarging openings on a home in a designated historic district, expect a Historic Preservation Board review. Window Installation in Delray Beach
Door Installation in Delray Beach
Door installation on Delray Beach’s older stock often means the slab and the frame both need to go. Original wood frames in 1950s and 1960s ranches have frequently shifted or rotted in the humidity, and coastal salt air wrecks standard steel hinges quickly. We install entry, patio, and impact-rated door systems and check the rough opening thoroughly before ordering, so the door actually fits the structure rather than forcing the structure to fit the door.

What pushes a Delray Beach price toward the top of these ranges is usually the coastal factor: impact glazing requirements, salt-corroded frames that need full replacement rather than sash swaps, and historic district constraints that force period-appropriate profiles. Whatever the number is, we put it in writing before any work starts and we don’t revise it at the door.

FAQs About Window Company in Delray Beach
Yes. Delray Beach follows Palm Beach County’s adopted Florida Building Code, which requires permits for window and door replacement. Homes in the Wind-Borne Debris Region must meet impact glazing or approved shutter requirements. We handle the permit paperwork and schedule inspections as part of the job. Call (903) 354-7134 for specifics on your property.
Delray Beach’s designated historic districts, including Old School Square and the Marina Historic District, route exterior changes through the Historic Preservation Board. That means your impact-rated windows or doors must also keep period-appropriate profiles, muntin patterns, and finishes. We’ve worked through that dual compliance and will factor it into your written estimate.
That’s how we work. Every Delray Beach job starts with a written price for the full scope, not an estimate that shifts once we’re on site. We call it the Kingswell Guarantee: the price, the arrival window, the cleanup, and the warranty all go in writing before a single screw turns.

What Delray Beach Customers Say
"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."
- Jessica Landry"Replaced eight drafty old windows that were basically single pane. The house is warmer already and the street noise is way down. Crew was on time both days and the price was exactly the quote."
