Ed’s name is on the door, and the crew that shows up in a Lake Park neighborhood is background-checked, uniformed, and accountable to him directly.
Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Lake Park’s Preferred Custom & Geometric Windows Company
Lake Park is one of Palm Beach County’s oldest incorporated towns, platted in 1923, and its residential core still carries the bones of post-WWII concrete block construction. We know what that means on a job site. Rough openings on CBS homes from the 1950s and 60s are rarely square, rarely standard, and rarely match what a stock window manufacturer assumes. That’s the whole reason our Lake Park work is nearly always custom-ordered rather than pulled off a shelf.
Our reputation in Lake Park is built on showing up when we say we will and standing behind what we install. Every job carries the Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s not a marketing line. It’s a lasting standard written into how we operate. Homeowners who’ve been burned by vague estimates and no-show crews tend to notice the difference.
Scheduling for Lake Park runs through our South Florida office, and crews serve the town locally. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When a Lake Park homeowner calls at 2 a.m. about a window that won’t close or a storm-damaged opening, a real person answers and starts the conversation.
Our Custom & Geometric Windows Services in Lake Park
Custom Impact Windows
Custom impact windows in Lake Park start around $900 per opening for a standard-sized single-hung and climb from there based on frame material, glass package, and design pressure rating. The older CBS homes in town almost never accept stock sizes. We field-measure, order exact-fit units with Florida Product Approval documentation, and do full-frame tear-outs where salt-damaged aluminum bucks would compromise the seal. This is the only legal way to satisfy Palm Beach County’s post-2004 impact requirements when original jalousie or single-pane frames fail.
Geometric & Shaped Windows
Geometric windows aren’t cosmetic in Lake Park. They’re structural. A trapezoid or pentagon opening on a 1960s concrete block home still has to meet wind-load requirements just like a standard rectangle. We order shaped impact units from manufacturers that certify each configuration separately under Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval. That means the octagon window on your front elevation carries the same documentation as the big slider in the back.
Arched & Curved Windows
Lake Park has a surprising number of arched openings on mid-century CBS builds, particularly along the older blocks near Lake Shore Drive. Yes, you can get a true curved impact window rather than boxing the arch in with a rectangle. It costs more, typically $2,500-$5,000 for a large radius, because the lamination and frame bending are done at the factory. We handle the measuring, ordering, and installation so the arch line stays clean and the rating stays valid.
Oversized Openings
Oversized openings in Lake Park, often 8 feet or wider, put custom engineering back on the table. A 100-plus inch impact window needs a design pressure rating matched to the wind zone, and on homes west of US-1 that rating is higher than what a stock unit delivers. We quote these as full openings: glass, frame, anchoring schedule, flashing, and the inspection-ready paperwork that proves compliance. Expect $2,500 and up per opening depending on size and glass package.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lake Park
We install and service CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, and Mr-Glass products across Lake Park. Each of these manufacturers holds Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade NOA listings for impact configurations, which matters when a wind mitigation inspector asks for documentation. Having these brands in our lineup also means we can match an existing window profile on a Lake Park home that’s been partially upgraded by a previous owner, rather than telling you to start over. Parts and service for these brands route through our local crews, so turnaround on adjustments or hardware fixes doesn’t leave you waiting on an out-of-state vendor.
Common Custom & Geometric Windows Problems We See in Lake Park Homes
- Salt-seized aluminum frames: Lake Park sits immediately west of the Lake Worth Lagoon and Intracoastal Waterway, and the salt-laden air aggressively corrodes original aluminum frames, screws, and weatherstripping. We regularly find jambs so seized on Lake Shore Drive homes that the sash can’t be removed without cutting it out.
- Non-standard rough openings: The 1950s and 60s CBS homes in Lake Park were framed for jalousie and single-pane aluminum units, not modern impact glazing. Off-the-shelf windows leave shim gaps over 1/4 inch, which creates water intrusion and a design pressure failure under large-missile testing.
- Jalousie windows still in place: Louvered jalousie units in bedrooms and bathrooms are essentially open to hurricane winds. Many Lake Park homeowners don’t realize their insurance carrier can non-renew or surcharge a policy for non-impact openings, even if the rest of the house is upgraded.
- Hidden corrosion behind existing impact installs: We’ve seen contractors install HVHZ-rated impact windows while reusing corroded original aluminum bucks. The hidden corrosion path voids the Florida Product Approval and fails a wind mitigation re-inspection, leaving the homeowner with expensive windows and no insurance credit.
What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Lake Park
Impact windows in Lake Park generally run $800-$1,500 per window installed. Impact single-hung units sit around $900-$1,800. Large or custom openings, including geometric shapes and oversized sliders, land between $2,500 and $5,000 per opening. Whole-home packages on a typical three-bedroom Lake Park CBS house can run $8,000 to $25,000 or more depending on opening count and glass packages.
What moves the price in Lake Park: how many openings you have, your wind zone (homes west of US-1 carry higher design pressure requirements), floor height, and whether we can reuse the existing frame or need a full-frame tear-out. Homes with salt-damaged bucks usually need the tear-out, which adds labor but protects the product approval. Call (561) 928-0302 for a free in-home measure and a written, line-item quote. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before you sign anything.
Pricing for Custom & Geometric Windows in Lake Park, FL
A typical custom impact window in Lake Park runs $900-$1,800 installed, depending on size, glass package, and whether the frame is aluminum or vinyl. Geometric and arched units start around $2,500 and go up from there. Whole-home replacements on the town’s older CBS stock generally land between $8,000 and $25,000. We provide a free in-home measure and a written quote with fixed pricing, no change orders, and the Done Right Promise behind every opening. Seniors and veterans receive a permanent 10% discount, and any repair over $200 gets $40 off.
Florida Pays You Back
Lake Park homeowners have real incentives available right now, and they stack. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Florida waives sales tax on impact-resistant windows and doors. The federal 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost, up to $600 per year on qualifying units. After a wind-mitigation inspection, which runs about $75-$150, many carriers apply a windstorm-premium credit around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy. Final numbers depend on your carrier and inspection results, but the documentation we hand you at project close is what unlocks these. On a Lake Park house where every opening carries Florida Product Approval paperwork, the stack is substantial.
Impact Windows vs. Shutters: The Permanent Advantage
Hurricane shutters cost less upfront, usually 30-50% of impact glass, but they only work when someone is home to hang them. Impact windows are permanent protection. No panels in the garage, no ladder at midnight, no remembering the ratchets when a tropical system is 48 hours out. For Lake Park homeowners who want a documented wind-mitigation credit and a home that’s protected whether or not they’re in town, impact windows are the better long-term call. The big-box retail installs often sub out the work to whoever’s available and leave the Florida Product Approval paperwork incomplete. A licensed impact specialist, measured and installed by the company that signs the permit, is the difference between a compliant upgrade and a very expensive mistake.

FAQs - Custom & Geometric Windows in Lake Park
Yes. A custom impact window ordered for a non-standard opening carries Florida Product Approval as long as the manufacturer has certified that specific configuration, and that’s why we order exact-fit units rather than forcing stock sizes. In Lake Park, where 1950s and 60s CBS homes rarely have standard rough openings, the field measurement and factory certification are what keep the approval valid. Call (561) 928-0302 to measure your openings and confirm your configuration.
Yes, if the replacement is documented through a wind-mitigation inspection, which typically costs $75-$150 and is done after installation. A Lake Park home with every opening impact-certified can qualify for a windstorm-premium credit under Florida Statute 627.0629, often around 25% on the windstorm portion. But if you leave even one jalousie window in place, the home no longer qualifies for the credit, and your carrier can surcharge or non-renew. Call (561) 928-0302 for an estimate that covers every opening.
Lake Park homes west of US-1 generally require a design pressure rating of at least +50/-60, and many openings spec higher depending on exposure and height. We match each window’s rating to the specific opening and wind zone, never a generic number, and we document it for the inspector. Call (561) 928-0302 and we’ll tell you exactly what your opening needs.
Salt-laden air from the Lake Worth Lagoon corrodes the original aluminum bucks, the frames the window sits in. If you reuse them, the hidden corrosion is a water intrusion path and voids the Florida Product Approval, which means a failed wind mitigation re-inspection. A full-frame tear-out replaces the buck, re-flashes the opening, and gives the new window a clean, code-compliant seat. Call (561) 928-0302 to have your frames inspected before you order.
You can get a true curved impact window. The glass is laminated and the frame is bent at the factory, so it costs more, usually $2,500-$5,000 for a large arch, and it takes 4-6 weeks to fabricate. What you won’t lose is the design line of the original home, which matters in a town like Lake Park where the mid-century character is still visible on the older blocks. Call (561) 928-0302 to schedule a free measure.
Your Lake Park Home, Measured Right
Lake Park’s post-WWII CBS homes almost universally have non-standard rough openings, so custom impact windows here aren’t a style upgrade, they’re the only way to legally pass Florida Building Code impact requirements when original jalousie or single-pane aluminum frames fail. That replacement pattern simply doesn’t exist in neighboring North Palm Beach, where newer builds already carry impact glazing. That’s the reason we field-measure every opening on every Lake Park job.
Here’s one from the files: we pulled a set of original jalousie units from a 1962 CBS home on Lake Shore Drive, where salt-laden air had seized the aluminum jambs and stripped the sash locks. The openings were 2 inches narrower than any stock impact window, so we field-measured for PGT custom impact windows with Miami-Dade NOA approvals, then did a full-frame tear-out and re-flashing before the inspector signed off. That’s a typical Lake Park job for us.
The jalousie legacy in this town is real. We find louvered units still in place in bedrooms and bathrooms on the older interior blocks all the time, often with the homeowner unaware their insurance carrier can non-renew or surcharge them. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every job we do. If you want the one down the road who answers the phone and measures your openings properly, call (561) 928-0302 to schedule your free estimate.
