AfterCGI Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Pompano Beach: What to Know First
We repair and replace CGI sliding glass and patio doors across Pompano Beach as an independent CGI service provider. Most CGI slider repairs are completed in a single visit, and a full door replacement typically runs two to three days from tear-out to final trim. Our pricing is honest and fixed before work begins, and a live person answers the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
This page is written for homeowners who own a CGI door and need straight answers about what fails, what it costs, and whether repair makes more sense than replacement. If you’re dealing with a door that binds when the humidity climbs in August, call (863) 591-8673 for a free estimate. We have been setting doors in Broward County long enough to know that Pompano Beach salt air does not treat a poorly sealed frame kindly, and Dale Kessler still checks every CGI job himself before we call it done.
How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- CGI Estate Collection sliders: hardened weatherstripping that shrinks in dry winter months. The Estate line uses a dense wool-pile and vinyl-barb weatherstrip that holds up well in salt air but loses compression after eight to ten years. The symptom is a door that slides fine in summer and suddenly drafts in January. We replace the weatherstrip with an OEM-spec material cut to the exact channel width, not a generic roll from a big box store.
- CGI Classic 3000 and 5000 series: lower track corrosion at the weep-hole line. Pompano Beach’s coastal moisture sits in the track and works into the aluminum at the weep slot. Homeowners notice the door dragging in the last six inches of travel. We remove the corrosion, inspect for pitting, and re-set the rollers on stainless carriers so the door swings true again without grinding the track.
- CGI Sentinel sliding doors: roller axle wear from daily use on the leeward side. Homes within a mile of the beach put extra stress on the windward slider, but the leeward door often fails first because it gets used more. The axle wears inside the roller body, which drops the panel just enough to scrape the sill. We replace both rollers as a matched pair, never one at a time, because a mismatched roller height is a callback waiting to happen.
- CGI Targa series: interlock misalignment after years of thermal expansion. The Targa’s interlocking stiles are tight from the factory, but two decades of Pompano Beach heat cycling slowly walks the panels out of plane. The lock catches, or the door locks but leaves a visible gap at the meeting stile. We re-square the panel with the frame and adjust the interlock until the two stiles seat flush without forcing.
- CGI frameless sliders: glass-to-metal seal delamination at the bottom rail. This is the failure that sends owners to Google because nobody explains it. Water sits at the bottom seal, and over time the adhesive bond between the insulated glass unit and the setting block weakens. You see a milky haze climbing from the bottom corner. If the IG seal is intact, we can re-set the unit without pulling the whole panel. If the seal is blown, it is a replacement.
Our CGI Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Process
- 1
Free estimate, at your door. A uniformed, background-checked technician walks the job with you, measures the opening twice, and writes the quote on paper before leaving. You see every line item.
- 2
Diagnostics, not guesswork. We identify whether the failure is the roller, the track, the interlock, the weatherstrip, or the glass unit. On a CGI door, these failures look similar but cost very different money to fix.
- 3
Parts decision. We quote OEM CGI components alongside quality aftermarket options when they exist. You decide with full knowledge of warranty impact. We never install a part that voids a valid CGI warranty without telling you first.
- 4
The repair or install. Panel is removed, old components pulled, new ones set, everything squared. Technicians work in your home the way they would in their own mother’s house: clean, careful, no shortcuts.
- 5
Test and verify. We cycle the door twenty times, check the lock throw, run water along the sill, and watch for any movement that should not be there. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 6
Warranty in writing before we leave. Both warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, and the Done Right Promise attached to the invoice. No surprises on the bill, no second appointment left hanging.
What CGI Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Costs in Pompano Beach
Roller replacement on a CGI slider in Pompano Beach runs $180 to $340 per panel, depending on the series and whether the track needs corrosion work. Interlock and alignment corrections land between $240 and $450. Full weatherstrip replacement on an Estate or Sentinel door runs $150 to $280 per panel. If the insulated glass unit within the panel has blown, replacement typically runs $600 to $1,100 depending on glass size and Low-E coating spec.
You should also consider whether it’s time for improved energy performance while we have the panel out, as older CGI glass units can be upgraded without replacing the entire door frame.
| CGI Slider Service | Typical Range in Pompano Beach |
|---|---|
| Roller replacement (per panel) | $180 - $340 |
| Interlock / alignment correction | $240 - $450 |
| Weatherstrip replacement (per panel) | $150 - $280 |
| Blown glass unit replacement (in-panel) | $600 - $1,100 |
| Full door replacement (installed) | $2,800 - $6,500+ |
What moves the price is the series, the frame condition, and whether we are repairing in place or pulling the panel. Coastal homes with significant track corrosion cost more because the prep work is real. Every quote is free, written, and fixed. Call (863) 591-8673 and we will tell you the number before you commit to anything.
Why Pompano Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI Work
We are not the cheapest bid in town, and we do not try to be. We are the call you make when the door has to work through the next hurricane season and you do not want to argue about it later. TruePane Windows & Doors has served local communities since 2008, founded on the principle Dale Kessler keeps on the whiteboard: if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
Our Done Right Promise covers every CGI repair and install we perform. You also get The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before our truck leaves your driveway. And because we are an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines including Andersen, Pella, Marvin, Milgard, PGT, and CGI, we can quote your CGI door next to PGT, CWS, ES Windows, or ECO Window Systems on the same sheet of paper so you see exactly what you are buying. Live person answers the phone 24/7. Call (863) 591-8673.
FAQs
A repair using OEM CGI components and proper installation methods does not void your warranty, and we document the parts used so there is no argument later. If we recommend a third-party component for a discontinued part, we tell you upfront what that means for warranty coverage. As Dale puts it: if it isn’t in writing, it isn’t a warranty.
Most common CGI roller, interlock, and weatherstrip components are available to us within one to three business days through local and regional supplier channels. For older Estate or Classic series hardware that CGI has discontinued, we source through our aftermarket partners or have components machined locally. Call (863) 591-8673 and we will tell you the parts timeline for your specific door before we schedule anything.
Repair makes sense if the frame is structurally sound, the glass is intact, and the failure is in a wear component like rollers, weatherstrip, or interlock. Replacement makes sense if the frame is corroding through, the glass has blown, or your energy costs have climbed and you want a modern Low-E unit. We quote both options on paper, side by side, so you can compare real numbers.
When a full CGI door replacement in Pompano Beach requires a permit, we pull it. The job is not done until the inspection passes. We will not tuck a permit under the rug to save you a fee, because an unpermitted door becomes your problem when you sell the house. Calls to (863) 591-8673 get a straight answer on where permits apply and what they cost.
