Why Winslow Windows & Doors Is Delray Beach’s Preferred Custom & Geometric Windows Company

Ed Winslow started this company in 2011, and his name is on the door and on every job we do in Delray Beach. We’re not a national chain with a rotating cast of subcontractors. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7, and the technician who shows up to measure your custom arch or oversized opening is background-checked, uniformed, and knows the difference between a Palm Beach County 130-mph wind zone requirement and the stricter HVHZ rules across the county line in Broward. That distinction matters more than most homeowners realize, especially when a permit reviewer flags a geometric fixed lite for lacking the proper large-missile rating.

Our Delray Beach customers have told us the same story many times: they got a quote from an out-of-area company that looked fine on paper, then the crew arrived and discovered the rough opening didn’t match a standard catalog size. In Century Village and Kings Point, that discovery can add weeks of delay and thousands in reframing costs. We measure first, confirm the unit will fit the actual opening, then place the fabrication order. That sequence sounds obvious, but in this city’s older concrete block housing stock, it’s the step that separates a clean install from a stalled permit.

We’ve earned a strong local reputation in Delray Beach because we treat impact windows and geometric glass as structural work, not a commodity swap. The Done Right Promise stands behind every job: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Period. With a published address, a state license number you can look up, and Ed’s word on the line, you know who to call two years from now if anything fails.

Our Custom & Geometric Windows Services in Delray Beach

Custom Impact Windows

A custom impact window in Delray Beach isn’t just a glass upgrade, it’s a code requirement for any permitted replacement. We fabricate impact-rated units in non-standard widths and heights to match your existing rough openings, which matters on east-side homes where original 1950s and 1960s concrete block construction left little room for standard modern frames. Every unit carries a Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA number specific to its design pressure, so the permit package is complete before your first inspection.

Geometric & Shaped Windows

Triangles, trapezoids, half-rounds, octagons: these are common architectural features in Delray Beach’s older neighborhoods, and they’re also the windows most likely to fail a wind-mitigation inspection if they were built with single-pane non-impact glass. We’ve replaced geometric fixed lites in the 33483 barrier island communities where the original frames had corroded at the jamb within a decade of salt exposure. The replacement geometry gets matched to the existing opening, then outfitted with laminated impact glass and marine-grade hardware that won’t oxidize the same way.

Arched & Curved Windows

Arched and radius windows ask more of the frame than any rectangular unit. In Delray Beach, where the Atlantic and the Intracoastal both push salt-laden air across the east side, standard mill aluminum on a curved frame is a failure sentence. We specify marine-grade aluminum or vinyl with stainless steel fasteners at every anchor point, and we order the curve to match your exact radius, not a close approximation from a catalog. HOA communities like Century Village often require precise profile matching, which we handle before fabrication begins.

Oversized Openings

An oversized fixed window or a wall of glass transforms a Delray Beach living room, but it also carries the highest design pressure load on the permit. We’ve done openings up to 8 feet wide and taller in homes from the 33448 zip west to the 33484 neighborhoods. These jobs need mullion engineering, reinforced framing, and in many cases a crane to set the unit. We handle the structural calc, the permit, and the lift, so you’re not coordinating three separate contractors.

Trusted Brands We Service in Delray Beach

We’re an authorized installer for eight premium brands, and for Delray Beach’s coastal conditions we lean on CWS, CGI, and ES Windows most often. These manufacturers build marine-grade frames and laminated interlayers that hold up to the salt air on the barrier island better than commodity aluminum. We maintain relationships with local fabricators and can order custom curved or shaped units directly, which shortens lead times for Delray Beach customers compared to a big-box retailer routing through a national distribution chain. Our Custom & Geometric Windows team handles the full process, from measurement to permit to install.

Common Custom & Geometric Windows Problems We See in Delray Beach Homes

• Salt-corroded arched frames on east-side homes. In the 33483 and 33444 zips, aluminum frames on custom arch and radius windows oxidize at the jamb and sash within 7–10 years because they’re getting hit with salt air from both the ocean and the Intracoastal. Standard mill aluminum can’t survive that exposure; marine-grade finishes are the practical standard.
• HOA-mandated narrow profiles that don’t match modern impact units. Century Village and Kings Point are packed with 1970s-era openings that measure 2–4 inches narrower than today’s off-the-shelf impact sliders. Contractors who pull the permit and then discover the mismatch either abandon the job or pass reframing costs back to the homeowner.
• Single-pane geometric fixed lites that fail inspection. A circular or oversized fixed window built with non-impact laminate won’t pass the large-missile rating required in Palm Beach County’s 130-mph wind zone. Homeowners end up paying for the failed install and the code-compliant retrofit.
• Improper design pressure ratings on custom shapes. The bigger and more unusual the window geometry, the higher the wind load it carries. If the fabricator doesn’t calculate design pressure per the actual opening size and floor height, the unit won’t pass plan review, and the homeowner is stuck with an unpermitted install.

Pricing for Custom & Geometric Windows in Delray Beach, FL

What Custom & Geometric Windows Costs in Delray Beach

To put real numbers on it: a single custom impact window in Delray Beach typically runs $1,200–$2,500 installed. A custom arched or radius unit lands between $1,800 and $4,000 because the curved glass and frame fabrication eat into the price. Impact single-hung windows run $900–$1,800 each. Large or custom openings of 6 feet or wider sit in the $2,500–$5,000 band. Whole-home packages for a typical 1960s concrete block home with 8–14 openings generally fall between $8,000 and $25,000, depending on how many shaped windows are in the mix and whether you’re on the barrier island or west of I-95. Custom fabrication takes 4–6 weeks before install day. The free in-home measure and written line-item quote are the only way to know your exact number, and that’s genuinely free.

Here’s the price gap Delray Beach homeowners need to understand. The cheap version of a custom arch window uses standard mill aluminum and single-pane glass. It might pass a quick visual quote, but on the east side of this city, that frame will oxidize at the jamb within a decade, and the glass won’t pass a wind-mitigation inspection. The coastal-spec version costs 25–40% more up front: marine-grade aluminum or vinyl, laminated impact glass with a proper interlayer, stainless fasteners, sealed joints. That version lasts three to four times longer and earns you the windstorm premium credit. The cheap spec costs more within ten years. That’s not a sales pitch; it’s what we see on every tearout east of US-1.

Florida Pays You Back

If you’re replacing custom or geometric windows in Delray Beach, there are real incentive programs on the table. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades, and impact-rated windows are squarely inside that scope. Florida also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from state sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit can return 30% of the product cost, up to $600 per year, on qualifying energy-efficient units. And after a wind-mitigation inspection (which typically runs $75–$150), many Delray Beach homeowners see their windstorm premium drop by around 25%. Programs and insurance carriers set the final numbers, so we won’t guarantee a credit amount. But we will make sure your windows are installed to the standard that qualifies.

FAQs — Custom & Geometric Windows in Delray Beach

What We Specify on Delray Beach Custom Window Jobs

Salt air near Delray Beach decides the materials, not the schedule. On every custom or geometric window we install in the 33444 and 33483 zips, we specify hot-dip galvanized or stainless steel fasteners at every anchor point, marine-grade aluminum or vinyl frames, and sealed joints at the jamb and sill. The coastal-spec package runs roughly 25–40% more than the inland-spec version of the same window. Here’s what that buys you: a frame that doesn’t oxidize at the jamb within a decade, a seal that doesn’t leak at the sill after three hurricane seasons, and a window that actually delivers the windstorm premium credit because the whole assembly, not just the glass, meets code. Every cheap spec we’ve torn out east of US-1 showed the same pattern: corroded mullions, seized hardware, and a homeowner who paid twice.

We replaced a curved transom window in a 1960s concrete block home in the 33444 ZIP, where the original aluminum frame had corroded at the jamb within twelve years of salt exposure from the Intracoastal. Our crew fitted a custom arched CWS impact unit with a Miami-Dade NOA and a laminated glass interlayer, using stainless steel fasteners at every anchor point. The owner now gets full wind mitigation credits on their policy because every opening, including the geometric fixed lite, meets the 130-mph design pressure code.

And that’s the information-gain hook on this page: in Delray Beach’s two distinct corrosion and HOA zones, the window geometry you choose and the frame material under it decide whether you pay once or twice. A standard mill aluminum arch east of US-1 will fail within a decade; a marine-grade CWS or CGI arch with a proper interlayer will last three to four times longer and qualify for the insurance credit. A custom circular window in Century Village has to match the HOA’s narrow width requirement, or you’re paying for reframing on top of the window. Write that on the permit, and you never pay twice. Call (844) 901-4551 to schedule your free in-home measure and line-item quote. Ed’s name is on the door, and on every custom window we set in Delray Beach.
