AfterWindows & Doors Services in Hobe Sound, FL
If your Hobe Sound home still has its original jalousie windows or a sliding door that binds every July, you already know the problem. Salt air from the Atlantic and the Indian River Lagoon works on frames and hardware from two directions at once, and those pre-1992 aluminum windows were never built for the wind-borne debris rules that now govern every replacement in Martin County. TruePane Windows & Doors installs, replaces, and services windows and doors throughout Hobe Sound, from impact-rated systems to custom glass railings. When you call (772) 362-3326, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree. Not a call center in another state. We schedule a time, we show up, we measure twice.
Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 on a single rule he keeps on the whiteboard to this day: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That rule matters in Hobe Sound, where unincorporated Martin County permitting and salt-corrosion conditions reward a contractor who plans carefully and documents everything before demo day. We’re glad you found us.

Why Hobe Sound Homeowners Choose TruePane Windows & Doors
A Hobe Sound homeowner who has lived in the same block of concrete homes for twenty years has usually been through one bad install already. They remember the contractor who left a fogged seal and never called back. They know the difference between a crew that registers the warranty and one that says “trust me.” TruePane earns its reputation in neighborhoods like Golfview and Lost Lake by treating every job as though our name goes on it, because it does.
We’re not the cheapest bid you’ll get, and we don’t try to be. We’re the last call you should have to make on a window or door. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. Our quotes list manufacturer lines side by side on paper, so you see exactly what you’re buying and what it costs. And every job carries the Done Right Promise backed by The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork, no arguing, no fine print that covers neither.
We’re an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including, PGT, CGI, and ES Windows. That matters when you’re choosing between a high-performance impact system and a mid-range energy-efficient line, because we can put both quotes in front of you on the same visit and walk through the differences in plain language.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Hobe Sound
TruePane handles the full range of residential window and door work in Hobe Sound. Each service below links to its own page with pricing, timing, and specifics for Martin County homes.
Window Installation in Hobe Sound
New window installation in Hobe Sound typically means full-frame replacement, not inserts, because most homes here predate 1992 and carry original aluminum or jalousie frames that don’t meet current wind-load standards. We measure every rough opening twice and order to the opening, not to a guess. Learn more about our Window Installation in Hobe Sound.
Door Installation in Hobe Sound
A front door in Hobe Sound earns its keep in July humidity and August storms. We install hinged entry doors, impact-rated systems, and custom units sized to openings in homes built between the 1960s and 1980s, where nothing is ever perfectly square. Learn more about our Door Installation in Hobe Sound.
Window Replacement in Hobe Sound
When a jalousie window finally fails or a single-pane aluminum frame starts corroding from salt air, the fix is a full replacement, not a patch. TruePane pulls the old frame, checks the opening for rot and termite damage, and sets the new unit plumb and true. Learn more about our Window Replacement in Hobe Sound.
Impact Windows & Doors
Hobe Sound sits squarely inside Florida’s wind-borne debris region, which means impact-rated glazing is a code requirement on replacement work, not an upsell. We specify systems with valid NOA or FL Product Approval numbers and handle the Martin County submittal package for you.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Florida heat loads on windows are relentless, and a low-e glass package makes a real difference in cooling bills. We quote energy-efficient options from manufacturers like Andersen and ECO Window Systems, with glass packages matched to the solar exposure of each elevation of your house.
Sliding & Patio Doors
A sliding door that binds in Hobe Sound usually has a roller assembly worn by years of sandy foot traffic and humidity-swollen tracks. We service and replace sliding, multi-slide, and patio door systems, including impact-rated packages for homes along the Intracoastal side of the community.
Glass Railing Systems
For Hobe Sound homes with elevated decks, balconies, or pool enclosures, glass railing systems offer clear sightlines and stainless-steel hardware that holds up to salt air. We install and maintain them with the same documentation standards we apply to entry doors and windows.
Custom Windows & Doors
When an opening is unusual, standard sizes won’t do. TruePane works with custom manufacturers to produce windows and doors for odd-shaped openings, architectural styles common in Hobe Sound’s older neighborhoods, and homeowners who want a specific look.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Hobe Sound
Our crews work throughout Hobe Sound and know the local subdivisions, roads, and property types. We serve homes in the following areas, among others:
- Golfview and the corridors along Gomez Avenue
- Lost Lake and the streets off Bridge Road
- Heritage and the established blocks near US-1
- Zeus Park and surrounding residential streets
- Hobe Sound Marina area and waterfront homes
Typical response time for estimate requests in Hobe Sound is one to two business days for scheduling, with emergency impact failures prioritized as they arise. We’ll be there when we say.
Why Hobe Sound’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Hobe Sound is unincorporated Martin County. That means every window and door permit runs through Martin County’s building department under its own wind-borne debris region requirements, which are distinct from the HVHZ rules governing work just south in Palm Beach County. Homeowners who have done work in Palm Beach County are often caught off guard by Martin County’s longer permit review timelines, especially on impact door submittals that require full product approval documentation. A contractor who doesn’t mention this upfront sets the homeowner up for a surprise delay before demo day. TruePane builds that scheduling buffer into every contract from the start.
The residential core of Hobe Sound is largely 1960s through 1980s concrete block and stucco construction. Many of those homes still have original jalousie or louvered aluminum-frame windows that predate Florida’s post-Hurricane Andrew impact codes entirely. Insert-only jobs are far less common here than in newer subdivisions, because the old frames simply don’t pass. Full-frame impact replacement is generally the only path to code compliance.
Add the salt-air factor and the stakes rise. Hobe Sound sits in a narrow corridor pinched between the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Indian River Lagoon section of the Intracoastal Waterway to the west. Window frames, hardware, and weatherstripping face corrosion from two directions simultaneously. Marine-grade anodized aluminum or fiberglass frames and stainless-steel fasteners are a practical necessity here, not an upgrade recommendation. We specify accordingly.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Hobe Sound
Window and door pricing in Hobe Sound varies widely based on opening size, product line, and the condition of the rough opening once the old frame is pulled. A straight single-hung replacement in a standard concrete-block opening may start around $900 to $1,400 installed, while a full impact-rated sliding glass door with stainless hardware can run from $3,200 to $6,000 depending on configuration and manufacturer. Jalousie-to-impact conversions in older Hobe Sound homes typically land between $1,200 and $2,200 per opening, including the full-frame work and permit package. Custom window and door projects are quoted individually.
We offer a permanent 5% discount for seniors and veterans, a free written repair estimate, and a maintenance check. Estimates are always free, and we put pricing on paper before any work begins. A square deal, every time.

Yes. Hobe Sound is unincorporated, so all permits flow through Martin County’s building department. TruePane prepares the submittal package, including NOA or FL Product Approval documentation for impact products, and schedules inspections as part of the job. You don’t chase paperwork.
Yes, and it’s one of the most common projects we do in Hobe Sound’s 1960s and 1970s homes. Full-frame replacement is generally required because the original jalousie frames don’t meet current wind-load standards, but the result is a tighter, quieter, far more storm-resistant opening.
Yes. Hobe Sound sits inside Florida’s wind-borne debris region, which mandates impact-rated glazing on all new and replacement window and door installations. Martin County enforces this requirement through its building department review process.
A standard single-opening replacement is often completed in one day. Multi-opening impact projects may take three to five days depending on scope and the Martin County permit timeline, which is often longer than homeowners expect. We set the schedule before demo day. Call (772) 362-3326 to discuss your project.

What Hobe Sound Customers Say
"Whole-house window replacement at 71 years old is not something you want to do twice. Dale walked the house himself for the quote. Crew was the same three men all four days, and the foreman knew every window by room."
- Pat and Ray L."French doors to the patio, custom size because this house was built in 1961 and nothing is standard. Measured twice, three weeks to fabricate like they warned, and the install day they laid runners over my floors without being asked."
- Marie S."Impact windows on the whole house. They handled the permit, the inspection, and gave me a folder with every approval number for the insurance company. My windstorm premium dropped enough to notice."
- Bill T.
