Oakland Park sits on a web of canals fed by the Middle River, and most of its homes were built between the 1950s and 1970s as single-story concrete block ranches. Those houses still carry the original jalousie windows and aluminum frames they left the builder with. Winslow Windows & Doors replaces those outdated openings with modern impact-rated units that meet Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone code. Call (904) 893-3309 and a live person answers, day or night.

Why Oakland Park Homeowners Choose Winslow Windows & Doors
Ed Winslow founded this company in 2011, and his name is still on every job we do. Oakland Park residents call us because we show up when we say we will, we price the work before we start, and we don’t hand the job off to a subcontractor we’ve never met. Every technician who steps onto your property is background-checked and arrives in uniform, so you know exactly who’s at your door before the truck pulls in.
We work regularly in neighborhoods like Oakland Forest and Royal Palm Acres, where the original 1960s jalousie windows are finally coming out of the block. Homeowners there tell us the same thing: their insurance carrier sent a non-renewal notice, and they need impact windows installed before the policy lapses. We handle that from start to finish, including the documentation your insurer wants to see.
You’ll also find the 36500-Day Done Right Promise behind everything we install. If it’s not done right, we make it right. That’s a century-long standard of accountability, and it’s the reason people in Oakland Park call us first and call us back when they’re ready for the next phase of work.
Windows & Doors Services We Offer in Oakland Park
Impact Windows
Laminated impact glass carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance and is tested to the design pressure your specific opening requires. We install PGT and CGI units in Oakland Park homes every week, sized to each rough opening and anchored into the CBS block with concrete fasteners.
Learn more about our Impact Windows in Oakland Park.
Window Installation
Whether you’re replacing a single failed unit or re-glazing an entire ranch house, we handle the reframing, flashing, and waterproofing so the new window performs for decades. Oakland Park’s older block homes often need custom shimming and anchoring that a big-box crew won’t attempt.
Learn more about our Window Installation in Oakland Park.
Window Replacement
We remove old jalousie and single-pane aluminum frames, dispose of them, and set energy-efficient or impact-rated replacements into the existing block. Most Oakland Park replacements take one day once the fabricated units arrive.

Door Installation
Oakland Park Door Installation for front entry doors, back doors, and side doors all gets the same treatment: proper shimming, sealed thresholds, and hardware that actually lines up. We install Therma-Tru doors for homeowners who want a fiberglass entry door that won’t warp in South Florida humidity.
Sliding Glass & Patio Doors
Older Oakland Park homes often have sliding doors that bind, leak, or no longer lock, and our Oakland Park Sliding Glass & Patio Doors service replaces them. We replace them with impact-rated sliders that carry the same NOA as our windows and glide on new stainless tracks.
Energy-Efficient Windows
Energy-Efficient Windows - Oakland Park with Low-E glass and insulated frames reduce solar heat gain, which matters when your east-facing windows catch the morning sun off the Intracoastal. Expect meaningful cooling-load reduction in the range of 20 to 30 percent on the rooms you condition most.
Impact Garage Doors
Your garage door is the largest opening on the house, and if it fails during a storm, your roof is next. Our Impact Garage Doors - Oakland Park service prevents that. We install impact-rated garage doors that meet the same HVHZ code as the rest of the opening protection work we do in Oakland Park.
Custom & Geometric Windows
Arches, half-rounds, trapezoids, and angled glass all come through our fabrication pipeline. If you have an unusual opening on an older Oakland Park home, we’ll measure it, template it, and build a unit that actually fits.
Roof Repair
Storms, age, and the relentless South Florida sun take a toll on shingle, tile, and metal roofs. We repair leaks at the source, not just the visible stain on your ceiling.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Full roof replacement in Oakland Park requires permits, inspections, and proper HVHZ fastening. We pull the permits, pass the inspections, and stand behind the finished roof.
Shingle, Tile & Metal Roofing
Each material has different fastening requirements and life expectancies. We’ll give you straight answers about what works on your home and what doesn’t.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Oakland Park
We work across Oakland Park, from the older blocks east of Dixie Highway to the canal-front streets near Northeast 6th Avenue. You’ll see our trucks throughout the area, and our typical response time for estimates runs a day or two depending on the week.

Why Oakland Park’s Climate & Housing Affect Windows & Doors
Oakland Park falls entirely inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means every replacement window, door, and skylight must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance, the same approval standard applied to beachfront condos on the ocean. There’s no exemption for being several miles inland. The code applies to the whole city.
The dominant housing stock here is single-story CBS ranch construction from the 1950s through the 1970s. Those homes were built with low-pitch rooflines and jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows that are now decades past their service life. Jalousie windows, in particular, are structurally incapable of meeting current impact requirements. They’re also an insurance liability: Broward County carriers are actively non-renewing policies on homes that still carry them. Replacing jalousies with anchored impact casements is not a cosmetic upgrade in Oakland Park. It’s often what keeps your homeowners policy in force.
The canal network fed by the Middle River does something else, too. It keeps ambient humidity high and pushes salt-laden air into frames and thresholds even on interior blocks. Aluminum oxidation and wood door rot show up faster here than in dryer parts of the county. We account for that when selecting hardware, sealants, and frame materials.
Pricing for Windows & Doors in Oakland Park
Every project gets a written, line-item estimate before we start. Prices move with opening count, window type (impact vs. non-impact), installation difficulty, and any reframing into the block. Here’s a straightforward range for Oakland Park work:
- Impact window replacement: roughly $900 to $2,800 per opening installed, depending on size and design pressure rating
- Entry door replacement: roughly $1,500 to $5,000 installed
- Sliding glass door replacement: roughly $3,500 to $8,500 installed
- Impact garage door: roughly $2,800 to $6,500 installed
- Roof replacement: $14,000 to $35,000 on most Oakland Park ranch homes, material-dependent
You’ll also get $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, and no trip charge inside the home county. Seniors and veterans save 10% on every project, permanently. Call (904) 893-3309 for a free estimate.
What to Look For When Comparing Window & Door Companies in Oakland Park
Not every company quoting your window job in Oakland Park is licensed to install impact products that meet HVHZ code. Some subcontract the work to a crew you’ll never meet. Some give you a verbal number and then pad the invoice after the opening is cut.
Ask three questions before you sign:
- Does the installer hold the product NOAs for the exact configuration going into my home? If they can’t produce the Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance for your specific window size and design pressure, the unit may not pass inspection.
- Who performs the installation? If the answer is a rotating cast of subcontractors, you have no idea who’s drilling into your block walls. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and accountable to Ed Winslow directly.
- Will the price change once work starts? Our estimates are written, line-item, and fixed. No change orders unless you change the scope.
We also offer free second opinions on any written estimate you’ve received from another contractor. Bring it to us, and we’ll tell you if the scope is right, the pricing is honest, and whether you’re actually comparing apples to apples.
Impact Windows vs. Hurricane Shutters in Oakland Park
Many Oakland Park homeowners weighing their options ask whether they should install impact windows or hurricane shutters. The functional difference matters. Impact windows protect your home 365 days a year without any action from you. They’re in place when a storm warning hits at 3 a.m., they’re in place when you’re out of town, and they’re in place during the other 360 days a year when they’re quietly cutting noise and solar heat gain.
Shutters require someone to physically deploy them before every storm. They rust, they bind, and on older homes they often get left in the garage because they’re heavy and awkward. Winslow Windows & Doors installs impact windows and doors only. We don’t sell or install shutters. But we’ll give you honest comparisons so you can make the call with your eyes open.
Florida Pays Oakland Park Homeowners Back
Florida has real incentives for Oakland Park homeowners upgrading to impact-rated openings. The My Safe Florida Home program offers matching grants up to $10,000 for qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. The state also exempts impact-resistant windows and doors from sales tax. On the federal side, the 25C energy credit covers 30% of product cost up to $600 per year on qualifying energy-efficient units.
Beyond the direct incentives, most carriers apply windstorm-premium credits averaging around 25% on the windstorm portion of your policy after a wind-mitigation inspection documents your new openings. Those inspections typically run $75 to $150 and usually pay for themselves inside the first renewal cycle. We can’t guarantee what your carrier will do, but we can point you to the documentation they want to see.

FAQs About Windows & Doors in Oakland Park
Impact window replacement in Oakland Park typically runs $900 to $2,800 per opening installed, depending on size, design pressure rating, and how much reframing the existing block requires. Jalousie-to-impact conversions on older ranch homes trend toward the higher end because the original frame has to be cut out and a new buck anchored into the CBS wall. Call (904) 893-3309 and we’ll give you an exact written quote. Estimates are free.
Yes. Oakland Park sits entirely inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every replacement window and door must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance regardless of your distance from the Atlantic. Your insurance carrier knows this, and many policies are being non-renewed on Oakland Park homes that still carry original jalousie or single-pane aluminum windows. Upgrading isn’t just about storm readiness; it’s about keeping your policy active.
Yes, and we do it almost every week in Oakland Park. The old jalousie frame gets cut out, the rough opening gets cleaned and prepped, and a new impact-rated or energy-efficient window gets anchored into the concrete block with the proper fasteners and sealants. The process is straightforward for a crew that’s done it hundreds of times, and it’s the single most common job type in the older neighborhoods east of Dixie Highway and along Middle River.
Once your units arrive from the fabricator, most single-home window and door installations finish in one day. Custom fabrication typically runs 4 to 6 weeks from order to delivery, and we’ll give you a clear schedule before you sign. Permits and inspections for impact work add a few days depending on the city’s review cycle. Call (904) 893-3309 and we’ll walk you through the full timeline for your specific home.
We do. Every impact window and door installation in Oakland Park requires a permit, and every permitted opening has to pass a final inspection before the job is closed. We handle the paperwork, the inspection scheduling, and the documentation your insurance carrier requires. You won’t be asked to chase down a permit or sit on hold with the building department. That’s part of the job.

What Oakland Park Customers Say
"We sat out a hurricane behind the windows Ed put in. The gusts threw a neighbour's trampoline down the street and the loudest thing in our house was the kettle. I rang him after to say thank you and he answered his own phone, same as always."
- Thaddeus Okonkwo"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."
- Yolanda Betancourt"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
