AfterFast, Reliable Custom & Geometric Windows Across Palm Beach
Custom and geometric window replacement in Palm Beach typically runs $2,500-$5,000 per large or shaped opening, with standard impact custom units landing between $800-$1,500 per window installed. Most custom arched or curved units take 4-6 weeks to fabricate, then install in as fast as a single day once they arrive. If you live on the island, call (561) 831-7863 for a free in-home measure and a written quote that accounts for ARCOM review and salt-air material requirements before you spend a dollar.
We know Palm Beach differently than a national chain ever could. The island is barely half a mile wide, which means your windows take salt spray from the Atlantic on one side and the Lake Worth Lagoon on the other, every single day. That changes which frame alloys, hardware grades, and glazing systems actually survive here. Our Custom & Geometric Windows team specs for that reality from the first site visit, not after a callback two years later when the powder coat starts pitting.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Palm Beach’s Preferred Custom & Geometric Windows Company
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011 and put his name on the door. That’s not a marketing line. It means when a Palm Beach homeowner calls about a failing arched casement on a Mizner-era estate, the person accountable for the fix is the same person who answers the phone. Every technician who arrives at your property is background-checked, uniformed, and has already been briefed on your specific opening dimensions and any ARCOM documentation in progress.
We’ve replaced custom geometric windows from the Estate Section north to the mid-century CBS homes near the Palm Beach Country Club. Homeowners consistently point to two things in reviews: we don’t quote a job until we’ve seen the original architectural drawings when the home falls under the town’s review overlay, and we never mark up a change order because we caught something on the second visit that should have been on the first. A live person answers every call, 24/7, including holidays when a storm approaches and you need to know your window status.
Our Custom & Geometric Windows Services in Palm Beach
Custom Impact Windows
Every replacement opening on the island must meet Florida Building Code wind-load requirements, and most Palm Beach properties sit in a high wind-speed design zone. Custom impact windows are engineered to the exact opening dimensions, wind zone rating for your elevation, and design pressure for the specific wall location, never a generic size pulled from a warehouse. We fabricate around the shape, not the other way around.
Geometric & Shaped Windows
Triangles, trapezoids, pentagons, circles, ovals. Palm Beach’s Mediterranean Revival homes are full of them, often stacked above rectangular casements or flanking a carved stone entry. These are not catalog items. Each one gets measured twice, templated, and fabricated in marine-grade aluminum or fiberglass so the geometry doesn’t shift when the frame expands under direct sun and salt load.
Arched & Curved Windows
Nothing reveals an off-the-shelf installer faster than a Mizner arched opening with modern sightline widths. ARCOM, the Architectural Commission of Palm Beach, rejects those. We match original radius, muntin profile, and divided-lite pattern using a custom template taken from the actual opening, then supply impact-rated glass that preserves the original character. We also handle the ARCOM pre-approval paperwork so the homeowner isn’t stuck resubmitting.
Oversized Openings
Some Palm Beach great rooms have window walls 10, 14, even 18 feet wide facing the ocean or the Intracoastal. Large custom openings require engineered headers, heavy-lift hardware, and often a crane or lift team. We quote the installation labor honestly, including equipment and any structural reinforcement, so the written estimate you approve is the price you pay.

Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach
We’re an authorized installer for PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux. For Palm Beach coastal conditions, we most often specify CGI and PGT custom impact lines for arched and geometric work, with ES Windows or ECO Window Systems when the design calls for a more delicate extruded profile. Because we’re local to South Florida, replacement hardware, rollers, and glass units for these brands reach Palm Beach faster than a company ordering out of state. Every unit carries Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA documentation matched to your opening.
Common Custom & Geometric Windows Problems We See in Palm Beach Homes
- Powder-coated aluminum pitting within 5-7 years. Dual salt spray from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal eats standard powder coat, exposing bare metal and breaking the seal around laminated glass interlayers. We specify marine-grade aluminum or fiberglass with a finish rated for continuous coastal exposure.
- Brass or zinc cam locks seizing on arched casements. Salt crystallization builds inside the hardware, making operable impact windows impossible to close before a storm. We use stainless or high-grade brass hardware only, and we check every moving part during the install.
- ARCOM rejection after install. We’ve seen homeowners pay for new geometric windows only to have the town order removal because sightlines and muntin grids didn’t match the original. That’s a five-figure re-fabrication. We pull the original drawings and confirm approval before fabrication begins.
- Uneven settling on older masonry openings. Many 1920s-1940s estates have shifted over decades, so a “square” template measured off the existing opening is already out of plumb. We measure from structural anchors and account for settling so the new unit seats and seals properly.
Pricing for Custom & Geometric Windows in Palm Beach, FL
A standard custom impact window in Palm Beach runs $800-$1,500 per unit installed. Arched, curved, and true geometric shapes with custom sightlines typically land at $2,500-$5,000 per opening, and large or oversized openings with structural reinforcement can exceed that. What moves the number most is the frame material, glass package, and whether ARCOM submittal documentation is required. The free in-home measure and written line-item quote we provide means you see exactly where the money goes before committing. Call (561) 831-7863 to schedule yours.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Palm Beach
A standard impact single-hung in Palm Beach runs $900-$1,800 installed. Large custom openings, arched transoms, and full geometric configurations sit in the $2,500-$5,000 range per opening, and whole-home packages across an estate property typically land between $8,000 and $25,000 or more depending on opening count and wind zone requirements. Palm Beach’s coastal wind zone and any ARCOM documentation push the number higher than an identical job in West Palm Beach. That’s the cost of doing it once, correctly. Call (561) 831-7863 for a written quote specific to your openings.
Florida Pays You Back
Palm Beach homeowners replacing single-pane or dated windows can stack several incentives. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit lets you claim 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying insulated units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which costs around $75-$150, many carriers reduce the windstorm premium by roughly 25%. Every program has its own eligibility rules, so we’ll point you to the right documentation and let your insurance carrier confirm final numbers.
One comparison worth making: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters require panels to be stored, located, and physically hung before every storm, and they do nothing for daily heat gain or noise. Impact-rated custom windows do the permanent job, and once installed, they protect the home every hour of every day, not just during a watch. We never install shutters, so our recommendation is based on what lasts, not what pads an invoice.

FAQs - Custom & Geometric Windows in Palm Beach
You need marine-grade aluminum, fiberglass, or a powder coat rated for continuous coastal exposure, with stainless or high-grade brass hardware on every operable component. Standard inland aluminum pits within 5-7 years here. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll walk your specific openings through the right material call.
Almost never. ARCOM requires divided-lite patterns, sightline widths, and muntin profiles that match the original architecture. Submitting a modern grid gets rejected. We pull the original drawings and handle pre-approval so fabrication doesn’t start until the window is approved. Call (561) 831-7863 to get the process moving before you replace anything.
You can physically fit some, but the result won’t meet ARCOM character standards on most island properties, and the warranty won’t cover the custom load path an oversized opening demands. That route usually ends in removal and a custom re-fabrication. Call (561) 831-7863 for an honest read on your opening before you buy.
We specify stainless steel or high-grade brass for every cam lock, hinge, and operator within 500 feet of the Lake Worth Lagoon, with marine-grade finishes on any exposed surface. Anything less corrodes and seizes. Call (561) 831-7863 for a hardware spec on your existing windows.
Most Palm Beach homeowners see a 15-25% drop in cooling load on rooms where the old single-pane arched units are replaced with Low-E insulated impact glass, especially on west and ocean-facing elevations. Your exact number depends on orientation, shading, and insulation. Call (561) 831-7863 and we’ll include realistic energy numbers in your quote.
