Palm Beach County · Highland Beach, FL
Tropic Glass Enclosures designs and installs glass patio enclosures in Highland Beach, FL for oceanfront homes and condos. We are a family-run company based next door in Boca Raton, and our own crews handle every installation from start to finish.
Highland Beach is about three miles of A1A between Boca Raton and Delray, with the ocean on one side and the Intracoastal on the other. Nearly everyone lives in a condo tower or an oceanfront home, and anyone who drives through town learns to watch the speedometer.
That setting is why people move here, and it's also hard on glass, frames and hardware. We've been building glass patio enclosures in Highland Beach and up and down this coast for close to four decades. Learn more about our family company.
Ground-floor units and townhomes along A1A often have a terrace facing the dunes or the Intracoastal. It's a great spot until the wind kicks up sand, the rain comes in sideways or the no-see-ums find you.
Glass turns that terrace into a room you can use any day of the year. In a condo, the association decides what's allowed, so we start with the building's rules and design within them.
On the upper floors of a Highland Beach tower, the sliding glass doors take the full force of every east wind. Older units often have doors that whistle, leak at the track and fight you every time you open them.
We replace sliding glass doors on their own or as part of a larger project. Have a look at the doors we install, all fitted by our own crews.
On a barrier island, storm protection isn't optional. Impact windows mean no shutters to close before every storm, and no worrying about the unit while you're up north for the summer.
We're a certified PGT dealer with PGT Gold Status and install impact windows in vinyl and aluminum. If you've been searching impact windows near me from a condo on A1A, we're a short drive away in Boca.
Oceanfront homes usually have their biggest openings facing the water, which is also the side that takes the worst of a storm. Impact doors there protect the house without blocking the view.
We can price impact doors together with your enclosure or windows, installed by one crew on one schedule.
Since 2022, Florida has required milestone structural inspections for older condo buildings of three stories or more, and plenty of towers along this coast have gone through balcony concrete repairs as a result.
If your building is in that cycle, glass work on balconies usually has to wait until the concrete is done. We'll plan the timing around your association's repair schedule.
From spring through fall, sea turtles nest on the beach right below these buildings. Beachfront properties along this stretch follow lighting rules during nesting season, and glass tint can be part of how a building stays within them.
We'll check what applies to your property before choosing glass, so the new enclosure doesn't create a problem with the town or your association.
The Town of Highland Beach issues building permits for work here. Properties seaward of Florida's Coastal Construction Control Line can also need a state permit, which adds time to the schedule.
We sort out what your project needs at the estimate. Whoever you hire should show you a state license number and proof of insurance before any work starts, and we're happy to show ours.
Salt spray reaches every surface on this island. Glass patio enclosures in Highland Beach need finishes and hardware chosen for that exposure, plus a simple rinse routine to keep them working.
We plan for it from the first visit. Our glass patio enclosure page shows the styles we build for coastal homes.
