Services
Every opening on the house, storm-ready
Windows are where most Cape Coral homes are weakest in a storm. We replace them one opening or the whole house at a time, and cover the doors and lanai openings too.
Window replacement
Out with fogged, leaking or stuck originals. We remove the old frames, repair the opening and set new units to current code.
Impact sliding glass doors
The big lanai and pool-side openings. Heavy-duty tracks and laminated panels that still roll with one hand.
Impact entry & French doors
Front doors, side lights and French doors rated for the same wind and debris loads as the windows beside them.
Hurricane shutters
Accordion, roll-down and panel shutters for openings where new glass isn't in the budget yet, or for an extra layer.
Not sure what you need?
We'll walk the house, count the openings and price it both ways.
Why impact glass
What your windows are up against
Hurricane Ian came ashore just west of Cape Coral in September 2022 as a Category 4. Wind is only half of it. The other half is what the wind is carrying.

Inside a hurricane-rated window
- Two panes of glass. Heat-strengthened, so each one is tougher than ordinary window glass.
- A bonded interlayer. If debris cracks the glass, the layer holds the pieces in the frame and keeps the opening sealed.
- A reinforced frame. Anchored into the block or framing on a tested fastener schedule, not just foamed in.
Keeping the opening closed is the point. Once a window fails, wind pressure builds inside the house and pushes up on the roof.

FAQ
Questions we hear every week
Are hurricane windows and impact windows the same thing?
Yes. Both names mean laminated glass in a reinforced frame, tested to stay in place after a debris strike and the pressure cycles that follow.
Do I still need shutters with impact windows?
No. Impact-rated windows meet the Florida Building Code's opening protection requirement on their own. Some owners add shutters anyway to protect the glass itself.
Will new windows lower my homeowners insurance?
Florida insurers offer wind mitigation credits for protected openings. The amount depends on your carrier and whether every opening is covered, so ask your agent before you order.
Do I need a permit to replace windows in Cape Coral?
Yes. Window and door replacements are permitted and inspected by the City of Cape Coral. We handle the application and the inspection.
How much do hurricane windows cost in Cape Coral?
Most standard-size impact windows land between roughly $800 and $2,000 each installed, and big sliders and picture windows cost more. Your written quote is the real number; the Cape Coral price guide shows the ranges we work from.
How long does it take?
Most of the wait is the factory building your windows to size. We'll give you the current lead time with your quote. The install itself is usually a matter of days.
About us
A local window company that knows Cape Coral homes
Cape Coral Hurricane Windows is a local installer. We know how these houses were built, what the salt air does to old aluminum frames, and what the city inspector looks for on a window permit.
We have been fitting windows and doors in Cape Coral since 2008, and the state window and door license is held by the owner himself, not a hired name on paper. Most of what we put in is impact-rated, but we also replace standard windows on openings that already have shutters, and we take jobs anywhere in Lee County.
You get one point of contact from the first measure to the final inspection, and a crew that shows up when we said it would. More about us.
