On the Butler Chain, the glass is the architecture — window walls framing sunset water, picture windows two stories tall. We engineer hurricane-rated laminated units in those same generous dimensions, with the finishes and quiet, careful installation an estate expects.

Windermere's signature homes were designed around their views. Estates in Isleworth, Keene's Pointe, and along Chaine du Lac carry oversized picture windows, floor-to-ceiling glass, and openings that erase the line between living room and lake. That openness comes with physics: wind crossing miles of the Butler Chain arrives at a lakefront elevation with nothing to slow it down, and large panes take the brunt. Our answer is engineered, not off-the-shelf. Each oversized unit is manufactured to your exact dimensions with laminated glass certified for Florida wind loads, framed in bronze, black, or color-matched profiles chosen during a design consultation at your home. The same interlayer that stops debris also filters the UV that fades art, rugs, and millwork. And where a wall of glass rolls open to the pool deck, our impact sliding glass doors carry that protection across the entire span.
Picture windows, transoms, and multi-panel spans manufactured to the exact dimensions of your opening — sizes production installers won't touch, certified to Florida wind-load standards.
Bronze, matte black, and custom-color frames with slim sightlines, selected in a consultation at your home — so the new glass disappears into the architecture instead of announcing itself.
Isleworth, Keene's Pointe, and most gated communities route exterior work through an architectural review board. We prepare the drawings, specs, and samples your board requires alongside the county permit.

After ImpactImpact-Rated. Secure.
Before ImpactDated. Drafty.A specialist measures your Windermere home in person — estate glass, mitered corners and oversized spans are exactly why we never quote blind.
Custom fabrication follows: large architectural units for Butler Chain properties can take longer to build, and we tell you that up front.
Bigger openings mean bigger crews — expect several days to a couple of weeks on the largest estates, fully permitted and inspected.
We serve the Town of Windermere and its surrounding luxury corridors — Isleworth, Keene's Pointe, Chaine du Lac, Reserve at Belmere, and Lake Butler Sound — plus lakefront addresses on Lake Down, Lake Tibet, and Wauseon Bay in ZIP 34786. The complete coverage map lives on our service areas page.

Yes — that's most of our Windermere work. Impact units are manufactured to order, so a nine-foot picture window or a multi-panel window wall is a matter of engineering rather than a limitation. Very large spans may use structural mullions or be divided into certified sections that still read as one plane of glass. During your consultation we measure each opening and confirm the product line rated for its size and your home's wind exposure.
We prepare the package for you. Most Butler Chain communities require ARB sign-off before exterior changes, and boards typically want elevation drawings, product specifications, and frame-finish samples. We assemble those materials, align them with your community's guidelines, and coordinate revisions if the board asks for changes — running that process in parallel with the Orange County permit so neither one delays your installation.
They are. Open water gives wind a long, unobstructed run — what engineers call fetch — so a home facing the Butler Chain sees stronger gusts than one sheltered by trees and rooftops. We specify units by their tested design-pressure ratings and match them to your elevation and exposure, not just your ZIP code. Every unit we install carries Florida product approval for wind-borne debris regions, including large-missile impact.
Yes. Impact frames come in bronze, matte black, white, and custom architectural colors, with interior laminates that sit well against wood and plaster. Grid patterns, hardware finishes, and sightline widths are all selectable, and we bring physical samples to your design consultation so you can hold them against the existing millwork. The goal is glass that upgrades the engineering without changing what the house looks like from the drive or the water.
Plan on two phases. Custom manufacturing of oversized laminated units typically runs several weeks from final measure, longer for specialty shapes and finishes. On-site installation for a full estate usually spans several days to a couple of weeks depending on the number and size of openings, and we sequence the rooms so the house stays livable and secure every night. You receive a written timeline with your proposal and a dedicated contact who keeps it honest.
Schedule a private design consultation at your Windermere home. We'll measure every opening, walk finish options against your architecture, handle ARB and permit paperwork, and deliver a written proposal — including $0-down financing if it suits your plans. Call (689) 219-5507.
