CGI Windows & Doors in Jupiter Inlet Colony, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI windows and doors service throughout Jupiter Inlet Colony, from seal repairs on a 2005 Estate Series slider to our Window Installation in Jupiter Inlet Colony for full-frame replacement of 1960s jalousie windows that never met current impact code. The one thing that makes our CGI work different here: we specify marine-grade upgrades standard aluminum CGI units don’t come with, because this inlet eats standard hardware. Call (954) 280-4413 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
TruePane has worked on multiple custom waterfront homes in Jupiter Inlet Colony, and we know the CGI product line well enough to tell you when a repair makes sense and when you’re better off replacing the unit. Our CGI sales & service work covers everything from roller swaps to full frame tear-outs.
Why Jupiter Inlet Colony Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We’re not a franchise rolling through town. Dale Kessler founded TruePane in 2008 after years of watching out-of-true installs and voided warranties leave good homeowners holding the bag. Our crews work on CGI windows and doors the way we’d work on our own mothers’ houses. That means background-checked, uniformed technicians who measure every opening twice, quote manufacturer lines side by side on paper, and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves the driveway.
For Jupiter Inlet Colony specifically, we’ve learned what standard CGI hardware does after two or three years of tidal salt spray. We stock marine-grade stainless steel rollers, hinges, and handles for precisely that reason. When a customer on Lighthouse Drive needs our Door Installation in Jupiter Inlet Colony to rebuild a sliding door, we don’t order parts that will bind again before the paint dries. We order the parts that survive this inlet.
A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree. Not a callback form. You call, a person picks up. For homeowners in Jupiter Inlet Colony who’ve been burned by contractors that disappear after the check clears, that matters. We’ve been serving local communities since 2008 and plan to be here in thirty more.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Jupiter Inlet Colony
- Premature pitting and corrosion of standard aluminum frames and hardware. Jupiter Inlet Colony sits where the Atlantic and the Intracoastal squeeze a narrow spit of land, so salt-laden air hits windows from two directions at once. Standard CGI aluminum frames that last fifteen years in Jupiter proper can show pitting within four or five here. We replace or upgrade with anodized finishes and stainless hardware rated for marine exposure.
- Fogging between panes from seal delamination. Constant high humidity and salty dew at the inlet accelerate seal breakdown on insulated glass units. When we see a CGI unit with fog between the glass, we don’t just swap the sash and call it done. We check whether the frame is still true and whether the seal failure is a one-off or the first sign of a broader problem.
- Weep hole clogging from salt crystal accumulation. The inlet’s tidal breeze carries fine salt spray that dries and crystallizes inside weep holes. Clogged weep channels trap water during storm-driven rain, and that water finds its way into walls. Our crews clean, ream, and restore drainage paths, then verify the opening actually drains before they leave.
- Seized or hard-to-operate rollers and hinges. Salt-laden air binds moving parts on sliders and casements within a few years at this location. We stock corrosion-resistant aftermarket stainless rollers and hinges that outperform CGI’s standard hardware in Jupiter Inlet Colony’s salt spray, and we’ll tell you plainly when an upgrade is worth the money versus a standard replacement.
- Failed impact glass on older CGI units. Homes in Jupiter Inlet Colony built in the 2000s often have original CGI windows that are now two decades into service. Impact-rated glass degrades, seals fail, and frames fatigue. We evaluate whether a glass-only replacement is code-compliant for your specific elevation and exposure, or whether the full frame has outlived its structural life and needs a complete tear-out.
CGI Service in Jupiter Inlet Colony: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing most window companies won’t tell you about Jupiter Inlet Colony: this is a narrow barrier island at the mouth of the Jupiter Inlet, which means homes here are simultaneously hit by salt-laden spray from the Atlantic on the east and the Intracoastal on the west. Your windows and doors get corrosion pressure on both the interior and exterior faces at the same time. That is not a condition you find one mile inland in Jupiter proper. It’s not even a condition you find a half mile inland.
What does that mean for a CGI owner? Standard aluminum-framed CGI windows sold and installed throughout Palm Beach County corrode prematurely at this inlet. The tidal salt spray eats at hardware, pocks the anodizing, and clogs weep holes with white crystal buildup. Contractors who work Jupiter Inlet Colony regularly learn this fast. Locals specify anodized or PVC-clad frames and stainless-steel hardware as a baseline, not an upgrade, and many HOA-era renovation permits require documentation of corrosion-resistant ratings before approval. When we quote a CGI repair or replacement in Jupiter Inlet Colony, we quote it with the hardware and frame finish this location actually demands, not what a spec sheet from a showroom in West Palm Beach would suggest.
Our crew replaced a set of original jalousie windows on Lighthouse Drive with new CGI Estate Series impact casements after a homeowner noticed salt crystallization clogging the weep holes of the old aluminum frames. The new units were specified with anodized frames and stainless steel hardware because the home’s eastern exposure catches the full force of the inlet’s tidal breeze. Within four years, neighboring homes with standard aluminum CGI units had visible pitting. Our upgrade showed no corrosion. That’s the difference between specifying for this inlet and specifying for that inlet.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Jupiter Inlet Colony
We service the full CGI residential line: Estate Series, Sentinel Series, Targa Series, and Classic Series. That covers casements, sliders, single-hungs, picture windows, and hinged impact doors. We carry genuine CGI replacement parts for critical structural and impact-rated components, which matters for keeping your wind mitigation certification intact. But when CGI’s standard hardware fails prematurely in Jupiter Inlet Colony’s salt spray, we source marine-grade aftermarket stainless steel hardware and corrosion-resistant rollers that significantly outlast the factory pieces. We’ll show you both options on paper and let you decide with your eyes open.
For Jupiter Inlet Colony turnaround, we stock the most common replacement components locally: stainless hinges for casements, marine-grade roller assemblies for Estate and Sentinel sliders, and anodized replacement locking hardware. Most single-unit repairs complete in one visit.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Jupiter Inlet Colony
Yes. CGI impact-rated windows and doors carry Florida Product Approval listings that meet the high-wind and wind-borne debris requirements for the Jupiter Inlet Colony region, provided the units are installed to the manufacturer’s engineering specifications and the glazing matches the specific design pressure required for your home’s elevation and exposure. What the code doesn’t address is corrosion resistance. A code-compliant CGI window with standard aluminum hardware will pass a wind mitigation inspection and still look rough within five years at this inlet. We spec marine-grade hardware so the unit meets code and survives the salt. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate on your specific openings.
Sometimes. If the CGI frame is structurally sound, true, and free of corrosion that compromises the glazing pocket, a glass-only replacement is a legitimate repair and we’ll do it with genuine CGI impact-rated glass. If the frame shows pitting, warping, or seal fatigue across multiple sashes, a glass-only fix becomes a band-aid, and full frame replacement with upgraded corrosion protection is usually more cost-effective than chasing patch repairs. We’ll show you both paths with prices before you spend a dollar. Call (954) 280-4413.
The inlet’s omnidirectional salt spray is the cause. Fine salt particles from both the Atlantic and the Intracoastal coat every moving part, dry into a gritty residue, and bind rollers, hinges, and locking hardware within a few years. That’s a Jupiter Inlet Colony condition that doesn’t exist a mile inland. The fix is marine-grade stainless hardware and periodic cleaning of the track and hardware with fresh water. We keep those parts in stock.
Yes, new CGI impact-rated windows and doors installed to the Florida Product Approval specifications will satisfy wind mitigation inspection requirements for impact protection. The inspection verifies the product labels, mounting, and design pressure ratings. We document everything and can walk your inspector through the installation details if questions come up. Both warranty layers are registered in writing before the truck leaves the driveway. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate on any CGI window or door in Jupiter Inlet Colony.
The most common issue we see on Jupiter Inlet Colony homes with early-2000s CGI units is seal delamination between the glass panes, driven by the constante humidity and salty dew at the inlet, combined with early-stage corrosion on the aluminum frames and hardware from two decades of salt exposure. The seal failures fog the glass; the corrosion seizes the moving parts. Together, they usually mean full frame replacement rather than piecemeal repair.
