Why TruePane Windows & Doors Is Lehigh Acres’s Preferred Impact Windows Company
We’re not a franchise rolling into town with a regional playbook. TruePane was founded in 2008 by Dale Kessler, a second-generation glazier who built the company on a rule that still governs every install: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Our crews know Lehigh Acres because they work Lehigh Acres. They know what a 1968 Lehigh Corporation CBS home looks like behind the drywall. They know which 2000s tract homes sat vacant through the foreclosure wave and are now showing failed thermal seals and pitted aluminum frames.
Background-checked, uniformed technicians measure every opening twice. We quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying before you sign. Both warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every job in Lehigh Acres, from a single jalousie replacement off Lee Boulevard to a full-home package near Veterans Park.
Our Impact Windows team has spent years working through the masonry mismatch problems that define this town’s older stock. When a rough opening doesn’t align with modern sizing, we don’t walk away or pad the bid. We do the block work. We re-cut to spec. We set the unit square and true.

Our Impact Windows Services in Lehigh Acres
Impact-Rated Glazing Replacement
Lehigh Acres sits inside Florida’s wind-borne debris region under the Florida Building Code, which means every replacement window must carry an impact rating or be paired with an approved shutter system. We replace failed single-pane and jalousie units with HVHZ-rated impact glass carrying Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval numbers specific to your opening. Design pressures are matched to the opening, never overstated.

Block Infill and Rough Opening Modification
This is the work that separates a Lehigh Acres installer from a Cape Coral crew. Original jalousie windows on 1960s and 1970s CBS homes were set directly into concrete block with non-standard rough openings. Modern impact windows don’t fit those openings. We do concrete and rebar block infill, re-cut the rough opening to spec, and set the new unit with stainless steel anchors. No air leaks, no foam-and-pray shortcuts.

Wind Mitigation Inspection Prep
After Hurricane Ian, Lee County insurers began demanding wind mitigation inspections before writing or renewing policies on older stock. Lehigh Acres homes are being scrutinized harder than almost anywhere in the county because so much of the housing predates current code. We prep openings to pass inspection the first time: large-missile rated glazing, correct design pressure documentation, and frames anchored to code. If an inspector flags something, we make it right under the 90-Day Done Right Promise.

Full-Home Impact Packages
For homeowners planning to stay in Lehigh Acres for the long haul, a full-home package is often the cleanest path to insurance compliance and real energy savings. We handle every opening: windows, sliding glass doors, entry doors, and transoms. We quote PGT, CGI, and other manufacturer lines side by side on paper so the price difference is visible before you commit.

Common Impact Windows Problems We See in Lehigh Acres Homes
- Fogged insulated glass from failed seals. Lehigh Acres lacks the coastal breeze that moderates Fort Myers and Cape Coral. Summer heat index over 105°F repeatedly expands vinyl frames on cheap retrofits, cracking the seal between sash and jamb until the glass unit fogs. Once the argon escapes, the window loses both clarity and energy performance.
- Pitted and corroded aluminum frames from salt air. Storm surge from the Gulf doesn’t stop at the coast. Salt air lingers inland and pits the uncoated aluminum frames on original single-pane windows, especially on 2000s-era homes that sat vacant after the 2008 foreclosure wave. We specify marine-grade finishes and stainless hardware where coastal installers might not.
- Impact glass without the required large-missile rating. Some builders ignore wind-borne debris code and install impact glass that holds the interlayer but lets the frame buckle under design pressure. The window fails the wind mitigation inspection and the homeowner is back to square one. We verify every rating before the unit goes in.
- Jalousie windows that can’t be swapped directly. The 1968 Lehigh Corporation homes were built around jalousie units set into non-standard concrete-block rough openings. A direct swap is rarely possible. Without block infill or custom ordering, you get air leaks around the jamb and a window that never seats true.
Pricing for Impact Windows in Lehigh Acres, FL
Standard impact window replacement in Lehigh Acres runs $800-$1,500 per opening installed. Impact single-hung windows land between $900 and $1,800. Large or custom openings, including sliding glass doors and oversized picture windows, run $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages start around $8,000 and can exceed $25,000 on larger CBS homes with multiple openings.
What moves the price in Lehigh Acres? Opening count is the biggest lever. Older CBS homes with jalousie openings almost always require block infill, which adds $200-$400 per opening depending on the masonry work. Frame material matters too: aluminum and vinyl are more affordable, while marine-grade aluminum holds up better against inland salt air and costs more upfront. Design pressure requirements under the Florida Building Code also factor in. On a 1972 rancher off Lee Boulevard, our crew pulled a rotted jalousie unit and found the rough opening was 2 inches too short for the PGT 5500 single-hung the homeowner wanted. We did a day of block infill with concrete and rebar, re-cut the opening to spec, and set the new HVHZ-rated unit with stainless steel anchors. No custom order, no air leaks.

What Impact Windows Costs in Lehigh Acres
Impact windows in Lehigh Acres generally land between $800 and $1,500 per window installed. Impact single-hung units run $900 to $1,800. Large or custom openings hit $2,500 to $5,000. Whole-home packages start at $8,000 and top $25,000 on larger homes with multiple openings and sliding doors. What moves the price here? Opening count is the obvious one. Floor height adds cost if you’re on a second story and the crew needs lift equipment. Frame material matters: aluminum is common and affordable, vinyl is a step up, and marine-grade finishes add cost but last longer against the salt air that reaches inland from the Gulf. Design pressure requirements under Florida’s wind-borne debris code also factor in per opening. We give a free in-home measure and a written quote so there’s no guessing and no change order waiting at the end.
Florida Pays You Back
Florida and the federal government offset part of the cost of impact windows. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, including impact-rated windows and doors. Florida’s sales-tax exemption applies to impact-resistant windows and doors at purchase. The federal 25C energy credit returns 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. After a wind mitigation inspection ($75-$150), most Lehigh Acres homeowners see a windstorm-premium reduction on their policy, often around 25% on the windstorm portion. We don’t set these numbers and we don’t promise a specific credit. But we do document every installation in writing so you have what you need when you apply.
One comparison worth making: impact windows versus hurricane shutters. Shutters are cheaper upfront, but they only work when someone is home to hang them. Impact windows are permanent. No panels to haul out of the garage in a storm warning, no ladders in the wind, no forgetting the one window on the back side of the house. For homeowners staying in Lehigh Acres long-term, the permanent protection usually wins. We install impact windows and doors only. We don’t sell or install shutters.

FAQs - Impact Windows in Lehigh Acres
Lee County’s entire area falls within Florida’s wind-borne debris region, which means the Florida Building Code requires impact-rated glazing or an approved secondary shutter system on all openings regardless of distance from the coast. After Hurricane Ian in September 2022, insurers began aggressively dropping or surcharging policies on homes without impact-rated windows and doors, and Lehigh Acres is uniquely exposed because its older, less-renovated housing stock lags far behind coastal neighbors like Cape Coral. Impact windows satisfy the code requirement directly and give your wind mitigation inspector something concrete to document. Call (239) 323-5522 to talk through your policy deadline and what your home needs.
Rarely as a direct swap. Jalousie windows on Lehigh Corporation-era CBS homes were set directly into concrete block with non-standard rough openings. Modern impact-rated units are built to nominal sizing that doesn’t match those openings. You either custom-order the unit, which adds cost and lead time, or we do block infill with concrete and rebar, re-cut the opening to spec, and set the new unit with stainless steel anchors. We’ve done this on hundreds of Lehigh Acres homes and we’ll tell you straight which option makes sense for your house before you commit. Call (239) 323-5522 for a free in-home measure.
Cape Coral sits on the water and gets constant salt spray, but Lehigh Acres gets a different kind of salt exposure. Storm surge lingers inland after major storms and leaves a corrosive film on uncoated aluminum frames, especially on 2000s-era homes that sat vacant after the 2008 foreclosure wave. The pitting and oxidation happens slower than on the coast, but it’s relentless, and the inland heat bakes it in. We specify marine-grade finishes and stainless hardware on Lehigh Acres jobs because the cheap inland spec fails within a decade. Call (239) 323-5522 and we’ll walk you through the material options on paper.
Three things have to be right: the glazing must carry a large-missile rating, not just an impact rating; the frame must be anchored to code for your wind zone; and the design pressure (PSF rating) must match the opening. Builders who ignore wind-borne debris code sometimes install impact glass where the interlayer holds but the frame buckles under design pressure, which fails the inspection. We document every rating and anchor spec before the unit goes in, and we prep openings to pass the first time. If an inspector flags something on our work, the 90-Day Done Right Promise covers it. Call (239) 323-5522 to schedule a review of your existing windows.
Yes, and the effect is larger here than in coastal towns because Lehigh Acres lacks the Gulf breeze that moderates Fort Myers and Cape Coral. Summer heat index over 105°F pushes old single-pane and failed-seal windows hard, and your AC works against that heat all afternoon. Impact windows with low-E coatings and insulated glass reduce solar heat gain and stop air leakage around old jalousie frames. You’ll see the difference on your cooling bill, but the bigger immediate win is the windstorm-premium credit after a wind mitigation inspection. Call (239) 323-5522 for a free in-home measure and a written quote.
