Roofing, Impact Window, and Door Brands We Install in the Florida Keys
Lindholm Exteriors, a Better Business Bureau (BBB)-accredited A+ Florida Keys contractor since 1949, installs trusted roofing systems and is a certified installer of Andersen, ES Windows, PGT, and Windoor impact-rated windows and doors across Monroe County. In the Florida Keys, the brand of your windows, roof, and doors matters as much as the contractor who installs them.
Salt air, Monroe County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements, and the realities of island living narrow the field of products that will actually perform decade after decade. After 75 years of building exteriors in the Keys, starting in metal roofing in 1949 and expanding into impact windows and doors as the codes evolved, Lindholm Exteriors has chosen a short list of manufacturers we trust to stand up to what our climate throws at a home.
Why These Brands for Florida Keys Homes
Not every roofing system, impact window, or door sold in Florida’s suited to the Keys. Roofing materials installed in Monroe County have to survive sustained ultraviolet (UV) exposure, salt spray, and named storms year after year.
Windows and doors must carry either a Florida Product Approval or, where applicable, a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA), and they need to do more than meet the minimum.
Salt-saturated air corrodes inferior hardware. Constant humidity finds every weak seal. Hurricane-force winds test laminated glass, frame anchoring, and roof attachment in ways that brochure specifications can’t predict.
The brands we install have one thing in common: a real track record in coastal South Florida and the Keys, backed by HVHZ-rated product lines, transparent warranty terms, and the manufacturing depth to support a Keys homeowner ten and even 20 years after installation.
We’ve watched plenty of brands come and go since 1949. The ones below have earned their place.

Andersen
Bringing over a century of engineering refinement to its Florida product line, Andersen’s been making windows and doors in the U.S. since 1903. For Keys homeowners, Andersen’s impact-rated Stormwatch® and A-Series collections combine the warm, traditional aesthetics that complement Conch and coastal architecture with the structural performance that the Keys demand.
We install Andersen impact windows and patio doors across single-family homes, condos, and historic renovations from Key Largo to Key West. Lindholm Exteriors is regularly chosen for projects where homeowners want a name recognized for craftsmanship as much as storm protection. Andersen’s one of several brands we offer through our impact window and exterior door services in the Keys.
ES Windows
A leading South Florida manufacturer, ES Windows (Tecnoglass) specializes in architectural impact-resistant glass and aluminum window systems. Their products are designed and tested specifically for the HVHZ areas surrounding the Keys, with Miami-Dade NOA approvals across most of their residential and commercial lines.
ES Windows is the brand we reach for on modern waterfront homes, large-span openings, and projects where slim aluminum sightlines need to disappear behind glass without compromising hurricane performance. Their proximity to the Keys also means shorter lead times and easier service access than out-of-state manufacturers. ES Windows products are part of our broader hurricane impact window offering for Florida Keys homes.
PGT
The most-installed impact window brand in Florida, PGT has been the industry benchmark for hurricane protection since 1980. The WinGuard® line, especially, has set the standard for HVHZ-rated vinyl and aluminum impact windows and remains the product that Keys homeowners ask for by name.
We carry the full PGT lineup including WinGuard Vinyl, WinGuard Aluminum, and the EnergyVue® and Eze-Breeze® series. We work with PGT’s Florida factories on custom sizing for the irregular openings common in older Keys homes. If you’re balancing budget, energy efficiency, and proven hurricane performance, PGT’s almost always part of the conversation.
Windoor
Manufacturing luxury impact-resistant window and door systems engineered for the Florida coast, Windoor specializes in expansive multislide and pivot door systems, oversized fixed glass, and architectural openings that bring the outdoors in without giving up storm protection.
For waterfront Keys homes like Islamorada bayfront estates, Marathon canal-front builds, and Ocean Reef custom projects, Windoor‘s the brand that lets architects and homeowners design around the view first, then engineer the protection behind it. Every Windoor system we install’s HVHZ-rated and built to specification for the exact opening it fills.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about the Brands We Install
Below are the questions Florida Keys homeowners ask us most often when choosing among window, roof, and door brands. If yours isn’t here, call us at 305-852-5730, and we’ll walk through it with you.
Which window and door brands does Lindholm Exteriors install in the Florida Keys?
Lindholm Exteriors is a certified installer of Andersen, ES Windows, PGT, and Windoor impact-rated windows and doors. All four brands carry Florida Product Approval, and most of their product lines also hold Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA). These are the certifications required for installation in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) that covers Monroe County.
How do I choose the right brand for my home?
The right brand depends on four things: your home’s architecture, your budget, the openings you’re replacing, and how long you plan to stay in the home. Andersen suits traditional Conch and coastal architecture. ES Windows offers strong value with premium features standard. PGT’s the most-installed brand in Florida and the easiest for buyers to recognize at resale. Windoor’s the luxury choice for waterfront homes with oversized openings. We walk through the options with you on-site and recommend the brand that fits your needs.
Can I mix brands across my project?
Yes, and homeowners often do. A common setup in the Keys is PGT or ES Windows for the main windows, paired with Windoor for a single oversized sliding or pivot door system that needs the luxury-tier engineering. Mixing brands doesn’t affect warranties as long as each product’s installed to the manufacturer’s specifications.
What if I want a brand you don’t list?
We can usually source it. Lindholm Exteriors has over 75 years of contractor relationships across the Florida impact window and door industry, and we’ll tell you honestly whether the brand you’re considering is a strong fit for the Keys. If it isn’t, we’ll recommend an equivalent product from one of the brands we regularly install.
Do you handle the permits and inspections?
Yes. Every installation includes permit coordination through the appropriate Monroe County or municipal building department, on-site supervision throughout the job, and scheduling of all required inspections. You sign just one authorization form, and we handle the rest.
What’s the difference between Florida Product Approval and Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA)?
Both are state-recognized certifications for hurricane-rated building products. Florida Product Approval covers products approved for general use across our state. Miami-Dade NOA’s the stricter standard, originally written for Miami-Dade County after Hurricane Andrew and now considered the gold standard for HVHZ installations. Monroe County accepts both, but NOA-approved products are typically a stronger choice for direct-coastal homes in the Keys.
Unsure Which Brand's Right for Your Florida Keys Home?
Brand selection comes down to your home’s architecture, your budget, the openings or roof you’re replacing, and how long you plan to stay. We’ve walked Keys homeowners through this decision since 1949, and the right answer’s rarely the brand with the biggest advertising budget.
Call us at 305-852-5730 or request a free estimate, and we’ll review your project on-site, recommend the brand and product line that fits, and give you a transparent quote with no obligation. Whether your project’s impact windows, doors, roof replacement, or a full exterior renovation, we handle permitting and code compliance from start to finish.
