AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Pembroke Park, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI window and door service across Pembroke Park, from original jalousie-era frames to current impact-rated Sentinel and Estate lines. The one thing that separates our CGI work here is simple: we know this town’s concrete block homes and we know exactly how CGI extrusions behave after twenty or thirty years of Broward County humidity. Call (954) 280-4413 for a straight answer on your windows or doors. Same-day scheduling is available when a louver is bound or a frame is leaking, and every visit starts with a free estimate.
Why Pembroke Park Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
Our techs work on CGI windows and doors across South Florida’s HVHZ every week, including the original aluminum jalousie-era units and newer impact lines, so we know the product lines well enough to tell which failures need a full replacement and which are a parts-and-flashing fix. We’re independent, not tied to any manufacturer’s warranty paperwork, which lets us recommend the right CGI repair or replacement without a factory authorization bias. Dale Kessler grew up in Sailboat Bend, learned the trade at McFatter Technical College in Davie, and has spent the better part of two decades putting glass into South Florida’s coastal corridor. If a CGI frame in Pembroke Park can be saved with the right weatherstripping and rollers, that’s what we’ll tell you. If it can’t, we’ll tell you that too, and we’ll show you the numbers on Pembroke Park Window Installation before any work starts.
We’re not new to Pembroke Park’s CBS ranch homes or the 1950s-1970s building stock that still dominates the streets here. Our crews set frames with Tapcon masonry anchors into concrete block as standard practice, not as a surprise upcharge. That’s a local requirement, and it’s one we’ve been doing long enough that we don’t have to think about it. You also get a live person on the phone, 24/7, not a call center routing your call somewhere up the coast.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Pembroke Park
- Corroded weep holes and pitted latch-side extrusions on 1970s-80s CGI aluminum frames. Pembroke Park’s humid, salt-tinged air works on bare aluminum over decades. Water pools inside the track, stains the sills, and eventually the frame corners start to rot through. This is the most common call we get for original non-impact CGI units still in service.
- Twisted jalousie-style CGI frames on out-of-plumb CBS block. Older Pembroke Park homes often have block walls that aren’t perfectly square. When a jalousie frame gets screwed into that block without proper shim packs, the louvers bind, the frame twists, and summer thunderstorms push water past the seals. We correct the framing before we touch the glass.
- Fogged impact glass on first-generation CGI Sentinel doors facing I-95. Constant low-frequency road vibration from the highway causes hairline delamination around the glass edges within 8-10 years. The frame is usually still solid. The glass is not. Reglazing is the better fix here, and we do it with OEM-spec laminated units.
- Failed weatherstripping and worn rollers on CGI sliding doors. We prefer CGI OEM weatherstripping and roller assemblies when the frame is sound because aftermarket seals never seat correctly in the original extruded channels. For latch hardware and stainless screws, we’ll use a marine-grade aftermarket part that costs less and holds up better in Pembroke Park humidity.
- Non-compliant original single-pane CGI windows that won’t pass a Broward County HVHZ inspection. If you bought the house and the inspector flagged the windows, you’re not alone. Pembroke Park’s building department specifically flags jalousie-to-impact retrofits as full-opening replacements, not glass swaps. We handle the full replacement path, including the NOA paperwork.
CGI Service in Pembroke Park: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Pembroke Park sits inside Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means every permitted window and door replacement here must carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or a Florida Product Approval. That’s one of the strictest product certification standards in the country. But here’s the part that trips up out-of-town crews: Pembroke Park’s building department treats jalousie-to-impact retrofits as full-opening replacements, not simple swaps. That’s different from how Hollywood or Hallandale Beach handle the same retrofit. So when we pull an original jalousie frame out of a 1968 CBS ranch on Southwest 31st Avenue, we’re not just trading glass. We’re re-establishing the rough opening to plus zero, minus one-eighth inch before the NOA inspection. Get that number wrong and the inspector sends you back. We get it right the first trip because we’ve done enough of these to know the exact tolerance the town expects.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Pembroke Park
We service the CGI Sentinel line, including impact sliding glass doors and windows, the CGI Estate fixed, awning, and casement series, the Estate single hung series, and the Series 520 impact windows. When parts are needed, our stance is straightforward: OEM weatherstripping and roller assemblies from CGI when the frame is still sound, because aftermarket seals won’t seat right in the original extruded channels. For latch hardware and fasteners, we keep marine-grade stainless aftermarket parts on the truck that handle Pembroke Park humidity better than the originals. That means most calls don’t need a second visit waiting on parts.
CGI Service Pricing in Pembroke Park
CGI service calls in Pembroke Park typically run between $89 and $329 for diagnosis and common hardware or seal repairs, with the maintenance visit priced at $89. Reglazing a fogged CGI impact sash usually falls between $400 and $900 per unit depending on size. A full-frame CGI impact window replacement runs from $950 to $2,400 per opening, and full-frame work needed for jalousie-to-impact retrofits into CBS block comes with tapping and anchoring handled as part of the job, not an extra line item. The variables are frame condition, rough opening tolerances, and whether the existing buck strips are sound or need replacement. Every estimate is written, line-itemed, and free. Call (954) 280-4413 and we’ll give you numbers specific to your house, not a website range.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Pembroke Park
No. Original jalousie frames are non-compliant with current HVHZ wind-load requirements, and Pembroke Park’s building department treats jalousie-to-impact retrofits as full-opening replacements, which means the entire frame must come out and a NOA-approved impact unit must go in. Replacing just the glass on those old frames won’t pass inspection. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate on the full replacement path.
Because Pembroke Park’s homes are concrete block structure, not wood frame. Impact windows carry serious wind loads, and regular wood screws will pull out of block during a storm. We use Tapcon masonry anchors set to the manufacturer’s embedment depth, which is what the NOA requires and what the inspector checks for any Pembroke Park Door Installation. This is standard practice for us on every CBS home in Pembroke Park, not an upgrade we upsell.
In most cases, you can replace just the glass. The frame is usually still solid, especially on Sentinel and Estate units where the delamination is at the glass edge, not the frame corner. If the frame shows corrosion through at the corners or the extrusion is twisted, a new sash or full replacement is the honest call. We’ll show you the frame condition before recommending one path over the other. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free assessment.
Generally yes. A full-frame replacement demonstrates the entire opening meets current NOA standards, which carries more weight with insurers than an insert that retains the existing frame. We’ve seen Pembroke Park homeowners receive larger wind mitigation credits after full-frame CGI replacements because the inspector’s report shows the entire opening, not just the sash, is code-compliant. We’ll register both warranty layers in writing so you have the documentation your insurer asks for.
No. Replacing rollers, latch hardware, or weatherstripping on an existing CGI door does not require a permit in Pembroke Park. A permit kicks in when you’re changing the frame, the opening, or the glass unit itself. We’ll tell you before we start if the scope of the work crosses into permit territory. Call (954) 280-4413 if you’re not sure which side your repair falls on.
