Mr-Glass Windows & Doors in Hollywood, FL | Westlight Windows Fort Lauderdale
Westlight Windows Fort Lauderdale provides independent Mr-Glass service across Hollywood, FL, from Hollywood Lakes to Emerald Hills. We repair and replace Mr-Glass impact windows and sliding glass doors without manufacturer authorization, which means we fix what’s actually failing instead of pushing a full replacement. The one thing that makes our Mr-Glass work different here: we know Hollywood’s preservation board rules inside out, so your vintage home keeps its character while still passing wind-load inspections. Call (754) 354-5397 for a free estimate on any Mr-Glass window or door.
Why Hollywood Residents Choose Us for Mr-Glass Service
Most Mr-Glass owners in Hollywood don’t need a sales pitch. They need a technician who can identify a corroded roller bracket, a failed interlock gasket, or a sagging corner key without guessing. Our crew has spent years working on Mr-Glass impact windows across Broward County, and we stock the specific replacement hardware these units require. For full background on the brand, see our Mr-Glass sales & service page.
Owen Satterfield, our owner, trained in building construction technology and has put in windows and exterior doors across South Florida for the better part of two decades, including whole-house impact projects along the Las Olas corridor. He taught our techs to measure twice and cut the conversation once. That’s the Kingswell Way: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails.
We’re an independently owned and operated Kingswell location. That independence matters because we’re not obligated to sell you a full replacement when a $90 roller assembly fixes the problem. We’ll tell you straight what your house actually needs.
Common Mr-Glass Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Hollywood
- Rusted roller brackets on 900 Series sliders. The airborne salt off the Atlantic works its way into the steel roller carriers and stainless tracks on Mr-Glass 900 Series sliding glass doors. After enough Hollywood summers, the doors bind, jump the rail, or refuse to glide. We replace the carriers with OEM stainless hardware and re-tension the interlock so the door moves like it should.
- Cracked interlock weatherstripping on 7400 single-hungs. A few hurricane seasons in Hollywood’s heat and humidity harden the rubber interlock gaskets on Mr-Glass 7400 Series single-hung impact windows. When they crack, wind-driven rain weeps through the meeting rail during storms. We replace the gaskets with Mr-Glass spec material and reset the compression seal.
- Loose or stripped corner keys on 7900 horizontal rollers. Repeated impact cycling and years of opening and closing in humid coastal air loosen the corner keys on Mr-Glass 7900 Series horizontal roller impact windows. The sash sags, the compression seal fails, and the window loses its DP rating. We retighten or replace the keys and realign the sash.
- Fogging between laminated glass panes on early 7800 casements. Hollywood’s intense UV exposure and humidity break down the dual-seal edge on early Mr-Glass 7800 Series impact casement windows. Moisture gets between the laminated panes, and you end up with permanent fog. We replace the insulated glass unit with the correct impact-rated makeup.
- Grinding crank mechanisms on casement windows near the beach. Salt and sand work into the crank gears and hinge tracks on Mr-Glass casement windows within a few blocks of the water. The hardware grinds instead of turning smoothly. We clean, lubricate, or replace the operator so the window opens without fighting you.
Mr-Glass Service in Hollywood: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the detail that catches most contractors off guard when they do Window Installation in Hollywood. In the Hollywood Lakes historic district, the city’s preservation board often requires new impact glazing to be installed on the interior side of the original 1950s wood or metal frames. That preserves the street-facing mullion profiles while the new custom interior stops carry the wind-load rating. Out-of-town crews show up, rip out the original frame, install a standard impact window, and the homeowner fails inspection. Then they pay twice to fix it.
We’ve done this work the right way. In Hollywood Lakes, our crew pulled two Mr-Glass 900 Series sliders from a 1960s CBS ranch where the steel roller brackets had rusted solid from decades of ocean air. We replaced the rollers with OEM stainless carriers, re-tensioned the interlock, and reset the interior impact glazing without touching the original exterior frame. The home kept its vintage look and passed the preservation review. That’s the kind of Mr-Glass repair you can’t get from a crew that doesn’t know Hollywood’s rules.
Mr-Glass Models & Products We Service in Hollywood
We work on the Mr-Glass impact lines most common in Hollywood homes: the 7400 Series single-hung impact window, the 7900 Series horizontal roller impact window, the 900 Series impact sliding glass door, and the 7800 Series casement impact window. We default to OEM Mr-Glass hardware (balances, corner keys, rollers, interlock gaskets) because those extrusion profiles are not interchangeable with generic parts. When OEM lead times stretch past two weeks, we use only certified impact-rated aftermarket components that match the original DP rating and glass makeup. If the frame itself is too corroded to trust, we’ll tell you that Window Replacement - Hollywood is cheaper than repeated repairs, and we’ll install a new Mr-Glass or another impact-rated line from our eight manufacturer partners.
Mr-Glass Service Pricing in Hollywood
What you’ll pay depends on the failure and the model. Replacing rollers on a 900 Series slider typically runs $180 to $340 including parts and labor, depending on whether both panels need carriers. Interlock weatherstripping on a 7400 single-hung is usually $120 to $250 per window. A full insulated glass unit replacement for a fogged 7800 casement runs $400 to $800, depending on glass size and whether it’s a single or twin-panel unit. Corner key replacement on a 7900 horizontal roller is generally $150 to $300.
Every job starts with a written quote before any work begins. No revised invoices at the door, no surprises after we open the wall. The quote covers parts, labor, and exactly what we’ll do if something isn’t right. Call (754) 354-5397 for your free estimate, and we’ll give you a real number you can plan around.

FAQs – Mr-Glass Windows & Doors in Hollywood
Yes. We replace the roller carriers from inside the existing frame, leaving the original exterior frame and street-facing profile untouched. That’s exactly the approach Hollywood Lakes preservation review requires, and we’ve passed those reviews on multiple projects.
Salt and fine sand from Hollywood’s coastal air get into the crank gears and hinge tracks, wearing down the mechanism. We clean the operator, lubricate the moving parts, and replace the crank if the gears are stripped. It’s a hardware fix, not a window replacement. Call (754) 354-5397 and we’ll take a look.
Almost always hardware. The corner keys on Mr-Glass 7900 Series horizontal rollers loosen or strip over time, which lets the sash drop and lose its compression seal. We replace the corner keys and realign the sash. In rare cases the frame has shifted, but we’ll diagnose it honestly before recommending anything.
Yes. We install impact-rated glazing on the interior side of your original frames with custom interior stops that meet current wind-load ratings. The street-facing mullions and frame profiles stay exactly as they are, so your home keeps its 1950s character and passes inspection.
No. Fogging means the dual-seal edge on the insulated glass unit has failed, not the frame. We replace the glass unit itself with the correct impact-rated laminate for South Florida. The frame stays. Call (754) 354-5397 for an exact quote, and the estimate is free.
