Fort Lauderdale Casement and Awning Windows Residential & Commercial

Casement and Awning Windows in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Fort Lauderdale Window Replacement provides professional casement and awning windows in Fort Lauderdale, FL for residential and commercial properties across Broward County. Awning windows are the shape South Florida invented a use for. A sash hinged at the top and cranked outward at the bottom keeps rain out of a room while it is raining, which in a county with an August thunderstorm most afternoons is not a small feature.

Older Broward houses are full of them, usually in stacks of three or four narrow lites in a single aluminum frame, and usually with the operators seized. Those original units are almost never impact rated, and replacing them one for one is a fair amount of the work we do east of the turnpike.

The modern equivalent is one taller awning over a fixed lite, or a pair of awnings flanking a picture unit. That configuration gets you the same weather-protected ventilation with more daylight and fewer moving parts, and the approved size tables are friendlier to it than to a four-high stack of narrow lites. Fewer operators also means fewer things to seize up in this salt air.

Casements are the other half of this page and behave differently. A side-hinged sash sealing against its frame compresses weatherstrip on all four edges, which is why casements test tighter for air infiltration than any other operating shape. They also carry high design pressures at moderate sizes, because the multipoint lock engages the frame at several points rather than one.

That multipoint gear is part of the tested assembly, not an accessory. The approval names the lock configuration, the number of engagement points and often the hinge series. Substituting hardware because a supplier has a different set on the shelf takes the unit off its listing, and a plans examiner who reads the drawings will catch it.

Hardware corrosion decides how long a crank-out window stays pleasant to use. Hinge tracks, arms and operator gearboxes on the outboard side of the frame sit in salt air whenever the sash is open, and stainless components in those positions are the difference between a window that still cranks smoothly at year twelve and one that gets painted shut out of frustration.

The practical warning is swing space. A casement or awning opens into the world, and a great many Broward houses have a screen enclosure, a pool deck, a walkway or an air handler exactly where the sash wants to go. We measure the projection at full open before recommending the shape, because a window you cannot open all the way is a window you stop opening.

When the swing does not work, the honest substitute is a horizontal roller with a fixed transom above it. That stays inside the wall plane and usually costs less than a casement anyway. We would rather install one than sell a crank-out unit that fouls a screen frame or an air handler pad. The shape earns its premium only when it can open, seal and be cleaned from inside without a stepladder.

Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance documents, Florida Product Approval listings valid inside the HVHZ, TAS 201 large-missile impact testing, TAS 202 uniform static air pressure testing, TAS 203 cyclic wind pressure loading, laminated glazing with ionoplast and butyral interlayers — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Fort Lauderdale and nearby communities including Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs, Miramar.

Materials, equipment and how we do casement and awning windows

The difference between casement and awning windows that lasts and casement and awning windows that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance documents, Florida Product Approval listings valid inside the HVHZ, TAS 201 large-missile impact testing, TAS 202 uniform static air pressure testing, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.

Every Fort Lauderdale job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in Broward County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Fort Lauderdale Chooses Fort Lauderdale Window Replacement

  • We quote from the current product approval, not a catalog, so the model, tested size range and approval number are on the estimate you sign.
  • The anchor schedule gets read before the price is set, because concrete, hollow block and a wood buck are three different installations at three different costs.
  • We open the perimeter of a sample opening during the survey, so failed buck material and masonry repair are priced up front instead of appearing as a change order.
  • We will tell you when approved shutters over sound existing glass are the cheaper legal answer, and quote that alongside the impact package.

How long does a casement and awning windows job take?

Yes, on any work that needs one. We file with the Fort Lauderdale building department, schedule the inspection and stay on site for it. Skipping a permit is how property owners end up paying twice — once for the work, and again when it fails at resale or an insurance claim.

Is Fort Lauderdale Window Replacement licensed and insured?

Window and door replacement is permitted work in Broward. Florida took glass and glazing off its mandatory state license list in 2012, but installing windows, exterior doors and structurally anchored opening protection still requires a Division I or appropriate specialty license, and every permit here is pulled under one..

General liability and workers compensation are carried on the crew, and certificates go to the homeowner or the association before the first anchor is drilled.. Installation follows ASTM E2112 standard practice, and every opening is anchored to the schedule printed on that product's own approval drawings rather than to a generic detail..

Every casement and awning windows job carries A written workmanship warranty covers the installation itself, meaning anchorage, sealant joints and flashing, and it is held separately from the manufacturer's glass and frame coverage.. Ask any contractor for those four things in writing before you sign — the ones who hesitate are telling you something.

Do you take commercial window work as well as residential?

Both. Fort Lauderdale Window Replacement runs residential casement and awning windows across Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods and commercial work for offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA properties throughout Broward County. Commercial jobs get phased scheduling and off-hours crews so tenants and customers are not shut out while the work happens.
