If you live in Greenacres, there’s a good chance your home still has its original aluminum jalousie windows and single-pane sliding glass doors from the 1970s or 1980s. That’s not a cosmetic issue anymore. Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region rules mean those original units fail current impact-resistance requirements, and most insurance carriers in Greenacres won’t write or renew a policy on a home where a four-point inspection flags them. The fix is full-unit replacement, done with product that carries a Florida Product Approval per configuration, and done by a crew that pulls the permit and passes the inspection. Winslow Windows & Doors handles that start to finish. Call (561) 782-7525 and a live person answers, day or night.

Why Greenacres Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow started this company in 2011, and his name is on the door. That’s not a slogan; it’s the reason we answer the phone ourselves, publish our address and license number, and back every installation with the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No ticket numbers, no call centers, no passing the buck.
Greenacres homeowners in the 33463 and 33467 zip codes call us for one reason more than any other: they’ve already gotten a vague estimate from a big-box installer or a crew that shows up late, ghosts the permit, and disappears when something leaks. We do the opposite. Every technician who arrives in Greenacres is background-checked and in uniform, the quote is line-itemed before work starts, and the price doesn’t change mid-job. We regularly work in neighborhoods like Sherwood Lakes, Nautica Isles, and the communities off Jog Road and Lake Worth Road, where the original aluminum frames are finally giving out. If you want a second opinion on any written estimate you’ve received, it’s free, and so is the trip charge anywhere in our home county.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Greenacres
Impact Windows
Impact windows are the flagship line for Greenacres, full stop. Laminated impact glass, Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Product Approval per configuration, and design pressures matched to each opening, never rated above +/-100. Learn more about our Impact Windows in Greenacres.
Window Installation
New-construction or retrofit, we install to the rough opening the old jalousie frame left behind, which in Greenacres almost always means non-standard sizing. We measure, order, and install without leaving gaps that let humidity into the wall cavity. Learn more about our Window Installation in Greenacres.
Window Replacement
Most Greenacres replacements are driven by two things: a failed four-point inspection or an insurance non-renewal letter. We coordinate the permit, the product approval documentation, and the inspection closeout. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Greenacres.
Door Installation
Front entry doors, side lites, transoms. We install Therma-Tru and other authorized brands, and every door gets the same impact-rating and permit treatment as the windows around it. Learn more about our entry door and window installs in Greenacres.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
The original aluminum sliders in Greenacres’s CBS tract homes are energy sieves and impact liabilities. We replace them with impact-rated sliders that carry the same Florida Product Approval as our windows. Learn more about our patio door and window replacement in Greenacres.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Low-E glass, argon fill, better frames. In a climate where the AC runs nine months a year, Greenacres homeowners typically see a 20 to 30 percent reduction in the cooling portion of their electric bill after swapping out single-pane aluminum. Learn more about our energy-efficient window installation in Greenacres.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the largest opening on the house, and in a 140 to 150 mph design-wind-speed zone, it’s a liability if it’s not braced and impact-rated. We install impact garage doors with the same permit rigor as our windows. Learn more about our garage door and window replacement in Greenacres.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Fixed picture windows, radius tops, trapezoids, half-rounds. If your Greenacres home has an arched or angled opening, we’ll order the exact unit rather than framing it square. Learn more about our custom window installation in Greenacres.
Roof Repair / Roof Replacement & Installation
Windows and doors fail fast in Greenacres, but roofs fail faster under hurricane season. We repair and replace shingle, tile, and metal roofing with the same permit-and-inspection discipline. Learn more about our home services, including full exterior protection.

Why Greenacres’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Greenacres was built out during western Palm Beach County’s suburban expansion, overwhelmingly as modest single-story CBS homes from the 1970s and 1980s. Those homes went up with aluminum jalousie windows and aluminum-framed sliding glass doors, both of which are now badly degraded by decades of humidity, UV, and hurricane cycles. Jalousie windows are a categorical dead end: their multi-louvered design cannot be retrofitted to meet impact standards, so when an insurer flags them on a four-point inspection, a full-unit replacement is the only path. And because the old jalousie frames leave behind non-standard rough openings, local contractors like us know to budget for custom sizing rather than trying to force a stock unit into the hole. In Greenacres, this isn’t a renovation choice; it’s a code-compliance event requiring a Palm Beach County permit, and impact-rated product is the only legal path.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Greenacres
- Impact window replacement (full-unit, per opening): $1,800 to $4,200, depending on size, frame material, and design pressure
- Impact sliding glass door (standard 2-panel): $4,500 to $9,000, including permit and inspection
- Jalousie-to-impact conversion: add 15 to 20 percent for non-standard rough opening framing
- Entry door replacement (non-impact): $1,200 to $3,500; impact-rated entry doors start around $2,800
- Impact garage door (single-car): $2,500 to $5,500, depending on bracing and rating
- Roof repair on a Greenacres CBS home: $450 to $1,800 for typical shingle or tile repair
These are line-item ranges, not promises. The exact number depends on your home’s openings, your product selections, and what the permit drawings say. You’ll get a written quote before you commit, and that quote is the price. No change orders, no surprise add-ons. And remember: $40 off any repair over $200, and a permanent 10 percent discount for seniors and veterans.
Florida Pays Greenacres Homeowners Back
If you’re replacing windows or doors in Greenacres anyway, there are a few programs worth knowing about. My Safe Florida Home matching grants can cover up to $10,000 in qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades for eligible homeowners. Florida waives sales tax on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30 percent of the product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying efficient units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection (which typically runs $75 to $150), many carriers credit around 25 percent off the windstorm portion of your premium. The programs change and carriers set their own final numbers, so treat these as starting points, not guarantees. We’ll point you in the right direction during your estimate.
One more thing worth weighing: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters work, but only if someone is home, awake, and willing to haul heavy panels across the house before the storm arrives. Impact windows are permanent. They’re always on. No panels, no tracks, no storage, no panic at 10 p.m. when the track shifts. For most Greenacres homeowners, that’s the smarter long-term play, especially when the insurance credits are factored in.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Greenacres
For a typical 1,600 to 2,200 square-foot Greenacres CBS home with 12 to 16 openings, full impact window replacement typically runs $24,000 to $58,000 depending on sizes, frame materials, and design pressure requirements. Call (561) 782-7525 for a line-itemed estimate on your specific home. It’s free.
Yes. Greenacres sits inside Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris region, and every window and door replacement is a code-compliance event requiring a Palm Beach County permit. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and close it out. You never touch the paperwork.
No. Our quotes are written and line-itemed. If we find something unexpected behind a jalousie frame (and in Greenacres, we often do), we’ll document it, show you, and agree on any adjustment before proceeding. You won’t see a bigger number at the end by surprise. Call (561) 782-7525 to ask us anything about how that works.
Once your custom units arrive, most Greenacres installations are done as fast as a single day. Custom fabrication from PGT, CGI, or CWS typically runs 4 to 6 weeks from order to delivery. We’ll give you a realistic timeline when we quote.
You can replace a broken glass pane or a crank mechanism, but jalousie windows can never be made impact-rated. If a four-point inspection has flagged them, or if your insurer is asking for wind-mitigation features, full-unit replacement is the only legal and insurable path. Call (561) 782-7525 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your home needs, with no pressure.

What Greenacres Customers Say
"He replaced the front door and the garage door in the same week, both rated for impact, and lined the frames up so straight my level had nothing to say. My wife stopped hearing the highway from the front room."
- Maximilian Vasquez"The installation was clean and the windows are beautiful. The factory took about six weeks to deliver the units, which Ed told me upfront, but living behind plywood-framed openings in the meantime still tested my patience."
- Guadalupe Zamorano"Three big companies quoted us and every one sent a salesman with a leased truck. Ed turned up in a truck with his own name on the door, quoted less, and his crew were the same faces on day one and day nine."
