Call (561) 831-7863 for a free in-home measure and a written quote that covers the full scope before we start.
Lake Worth Beach isn’t a tract-home town. The historic core is full of 1920s Mediterranean Revival buildings with thick stucco walls, original steel casement windows, and rough openings that have shifted over 80 years of settlement. The neighborhoods around it transition to 1950s and 1960s concrete block ranch homes, many still holding original jalousie windows that offer nothing against a hurricane. Then you get out toward the acreage parcels west of town, where county permitting and wind-zone requirements change the math. We know all three types of housing stock here, and we spec windows differently for each. That local knowledge is what keeps your project from stalling at inspection.
Winslow Windows & Doors has been installing custom and geometric windows since 2011. Ed Winslow’s name is on the business, and Ed’s standard is simple: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s the 36500-Day Done Right Promise. It’s not a warranty card in a drawer. It’s a century-long standard of accountability. Call (561) 831-7863 and a live person answers, every time, day or night.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lake Worth Beach’s Preferred Custom & Geometric Windows Company
We’re the company Lake Worth Beach homeowners call when a big box store has already told them their window opening is “non-standard” and walked away. Geometric and shaped windows are our specialty, not an exception. Arched transoms, radius corner units, oversized fixed picture windows, true divided lite impact casements for historic homes: we’ve done every one of them in Lake Worth Beach, and we’ve done them under the dual approval process this city requires.
That process is the thing most contractors underestimate here. In the Lake Worth Beach Historic District, you don’t just need a Florida Product Approval number. You need the city’s Historic Preservation Board to approve your frame profile, muntin configuration, and finish before you can pull the permit. Miss that step and you’re re-ordering windows. We submit early, we spec the product to pass review, and we’ve built working relationships with the local reviewers over years of projects.
Our technicians are background-checked and arrive in uniform. You know who’s at your door before the truck pulls up. Our pricing is upfront and line-item. If you get a written estimate from another contractor, bring it to us for a free second opinion. And if you’re a senior or veteran, you get a permanent 10% discount on every job. That’s not a promotion. It’s how Ed does business.
We coordinate scheduling from our Miami-area office, but the crews serving Lake Worth Beach work here regularly. They know the streets, the permit office, and the traffic patterns. They know that salt air from the Lake Worth Lagoon corrodes hardware faster than anything you’ll see a few miles inland. Every recommendation we make factors that in.
Our Custom & Geometric Windows Services in Lake Worth Beach
Our Custom & Geometric Windows team covers the full range of shaped and specialty work in Lake Worth Beach, from single replacement units to whole-home packages. Here’s what we do most often in this city.
Custom Impact Windows
Custom impact windows in Lake Worth Beach must carry valid Florida Product Approval numbers that meet Palm Beach County’s coastal wind-speed requirements. That’s non-negotiable. We specify PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows units with design pressures matched to your exact opening and floor height. A standard stock impact window won’t fit a 1920s masonry opening that’s 3/8 inch out of square, and it won’t pass a wind mitigation inspection if it’s under-rated for your zone. We field-measure every opening before we order.
Geometric & Shaped Windows
Triangles, trapezoids, pentagons, circles, half-rounds, octagons. If it’s not a rectangle, we build it. Lake Worth Beach’s older homes often have odd-shaped accent windows over doors or in gable ends that were never replaced because they’re “too hard.” Our team orders custom-shaped impact glass with frame profiles that match your existing architecture, then installs them with proper flashing and shimming so they seal tight and drain correctly.
Arched & Curved Windows
Arched windows are common in Lake Worth Beach’s Mediterranean Revival homes, usually as a top light over a casement or a full arched opening. The challenge is always the radius. If the arch is a true radius, we can match it. If it’s a segmented arch or something irregular, we template it. We recently replaced a set of original 1920s steel casement windows on a Mediterranean Revival home in the Lake Worth Beach Historic District, where the thick stucco-over-masonry walls and decades of minor settlement had left rough openings slightly out of square. Our crew field-measured each opening and shimmed custom PGT impact-rated casement units with true divided lites and a finish that satisfied both Palm Beach County’s HVHZ design pressure requirements and the Historic Preservation Board’s review, completing the job with a longer permit timeline that tract-home crews often underestimate.
Oversized Openings
Large fixed picture windows, sliding glass walls converted to fixed glass, big corner windows on mid-century homes: these need engineered framing and heavy glass packages. In Lake Worth Beach, an oversized opening on a CBS ranch home usually means cutting concrete block, adding a steel header, and re-flashing the entire rough opening. That’s structural work. We pull the permit, we do it right, and the inspector passes it because the engineering was done properly the first time.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lake Worth Beach
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. For Lake Worth Beach’s coastal conditions, we typically recommend impact-rated lines from PGT, CGI, and ES Windows, because their hardware and finishes hold up to the salt air off the Lake Worth Lagoon better than most Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing - Lake Worth Beach contractors see. When you need a replacement part or a warranty service call, we don’t have to order from a catalog and wait. We stock common hardware and weatherstripping locally, and our crews are in Lake Worth Beach every week. That means faster turnaround on service work and warranty claims than a company that’s driving from another county.
Common Custom & Geometric Windows Problems We See in Lake Worth Beach Homes
- Salt corrosion on original steel frames and hardware. Homes near the Intracoastal in Lake Worth Beach get persistent Atlantic salt-laden breezes that eat aluminum frames, hinges, and weatherstripping measurably faster than homes even a few miles inland. We routinely replace hardware on windows less than 10 years old because the original finish wasn’t rated for marine exposure.
- Out-of-square rough openings on 1920s masonry homes. The thick stucco-over-block walls in Lake Worth Beach’s historic core have settled over decades, and the original steel casement windows were mortared in place. Standard impact replacements don’t fit, and a crew that doesn’t field-measure will leave gaps, air leakage, and a failed wind mitigation inspection.
- Historic Preservation Board rejections. We’ve seen homeowners order custom windows, get them fabricated, and then have the Historic Preservation Board reject the frame profile or muntin grid because it doesn’t match the original. That’s a five-figure mistake on a large job. Submitting early with the right documentation avoids it.
- Undersized impact glass on county-permitted acreage work. West of Lake Worth Beach toward the agricultural reserve, some contractors assume county-only permitting means a lighter wind standard. It doesn’t. Palm Beach County’s wind zone applies to the whole property, and a unit with the wrong Florida Product Approval number fails inspection and leaves the home exposed.
Pricing for Custom & Geometric Windows in Lake Worth Beach, FL
Custom impact windows in Lake Worth Beach generally run $800 to $1,500 per window installed for standard-sized units. An impact single-hung runs $900 to $1,800. Large or custom-shaped openings, like an arched picture window or an oversized corner unit, run $2,500 to $5,000 each. Whole-home packages on a typical 1950s CBS ranch run $8,000 to $18,000, and larger or historic homes can push past $25,000.
What moves the price in Lake Worth Beach? Opening count, wind zone, floor height, and the frame material. A second-floor window on a coastal lot costs more than a ground-floor window a mile west because the design pressure requirement goes up. A custom radius arch costs more than a rectangle because of fabrication and templating. A historic district job costs more in time, not necessarily in product, because the preservation review adds weeks to the schedule.

What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Lake Worth Beach
Here’s a tighter breakdown of what you’ll actually pay in this market:
- Custom impact window, standard size: $800-$1,500 installed
- Impact single-hung, custom size: $900-$1,800 installed
- Large arched or geometric impact unit: $2,500-$5,000 installed

The biggest cost drivers in Lake Worth Beach are the wind zone, the age of the wall you’re cutting into, and the complexity of the shape. A geometric window on a 1950s CBS ranch with standard block is straightforward. A curved arch on a 1920s stucco-over-masonry wall with a Historic Preservation Board review is a different project. We price both honestly, and we explain why the number is the number. Call (561) 831-7863 to get your exact figure. The measure and the quote cost you nothing.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida has real money on the table for impact window upgrades, and the stack can be substantial when you combine programs. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact windows. There’s also a Florida sales-tax exemption on impact-resistant windows and doors, which effectively discounts the product cost at the point of sale. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit applies to qualifying efficient units at 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year.
Then there’s insurance. After a wind mitigation inspection ($75 to $150), homeowners in Lake Worth Beach often see windstorm premium reductions averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion. That’s a recurring saving, not a one-time rebate. We don’t guarantee any of these numbers; programs and carriers set the final amounts. But we do prepare your paperwork so your inspection and filing are clean.
One thing to know: impact windows are a permanent solution. Hurricane shutters need panels hung before every storm, stored when not in use, and they only protect when someone is home to install them. Impact windows protect the house 24/7, 365 days a year, with no action required. For a second home or a rental property in Lake Worth Beach, that difference matters a lot.

FAQs - Custom & Geometric Windows in Lake Worth Beach
Yes, if your home is in the city’s designated historic district, you need Historic Preservation Board approval before you pull a permit, and the board reviews your frame profile, muntin configuration, and finish against the original windows. That approval is required on top of the Florida Product Approval numbers for impact glazing. We submit early with documentation that matches the board’s expectations, which is the best way to avoid costly rework. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll walk you through the timeline for your specific street.
Yes. Jalousie windows in older CBS ranch homes are almost always replaced with custom-sized impact units because the rough openings are non-standard and the walls are concrete block. We field-measure every opening, spec impact glass with the right Florida Product Approval number and design pressure for your wind zone, and install with proper flashing so the new units seal against both wind-driven rain and salt air. Most jalousie-to-impact replacements are two to three days of work. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free measure and a written line-item quote.
Yes, if the units meet the wind-load requirements for your location and the installation passes a wind mitigation inspection. Florida Statute 627.0629 requires insurers to offer premium discounts for qualifying wind mitigation features, and impact windows are one of the strongest credits available. The key on acreage properties west of Lake Worth Beach is making sure the Florida Product Approval numbers match Palm Beach County’s wind-speed zone, not a lighter standard. We can connect you with a qualified inspector after install to document the credits. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll explain what your specific home qualifies for.
Salt air from the Lake Worth Lagoon corrodes aluminum frames, hinges, and weatherstripping noticeably faster than you see just a few miles inland, and homes within a half-mile of the Intracoastal feel it most, which is why Roof Replacement & Installation in Lake Worth Beach also requires coastal-grade materials. The frames can pit, the hardware seizes, and weatherstripping degrades until the window leaks air and water. We recommend impact-rated product lines with marine-grade finishes and hardware specifically tested for coastal exposure, and we stock common replacement parts locally so a hardware swap doesn’t mean a four-week wait. Call (561) 831-7863 if your windows are sticking or showing white corrosion.
Yes, and this is exactly the kind of job we do regularly in Lake Worth Beach. The process starts with field-measuring the opening in multiple places to map the settlement, then either shimming the frame to match the existing opening, or cutting the block back to square where the structure allows. We don’t force a square window into an out-of-square hole and caulk the gaps. That fails inspection and leaks over time. Call (561) 831-7863 for a free in-home measure, and we’ll tell you exactly what your wall needs before you spend a dollar.
