AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Weston, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent Weston Window Installation and door service across Weston, no manufacturer affiliation, just crews who know these products down to the frame profile. The one thing that makes our CGI work here different is understanding that every job in Weston has to clear two separate approvals: Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone permit and your HOA’s architectural review board. We handle both before a single pane comes out. Call (954) 280-4413 for a free estimate.
Why Weston Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We have worked on more CGI windows and doors in Weston’s Arvida-built villages than any independent shop in Broward County. That matters because CGI’s Estate Collection and older Classic lines have their own failure patterns, and a crew that only sees these units occasionally misses the early signs of frame oxidation behind the weep holes or seal delamination starting at the corners. We see those signs because we see these units every week.
Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 after spending the better part of two decades working glass and framing through South Florida’s coastal corridor. He grew up in Sailboat Bend, Fort Lauderdale, watching his father reseal jalousie windows every humid weekend, which is more or less how a person ends up in this trade. The rule on the whiteboard since day one: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They measure twice. They register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Weston
Most CGI units in Weston were installed when these homes went up, between 1990 and 2005. They have been holding up against Broward County humidity and UV for 25 to 35 years. Here is what we see most often:
- Anodized aluminum frame pitting and filiform corrosion at the latch side and weep holes. Weston’s year-round moisture, combined with lawn-irrigation salt drift, works its way into the frame channels. You will see white or gray worm-like corrosion tracks under the paint. Left alone, it eats through to the structural web and the window will not seat correctly.
- Double-pane glazing seal delamination causing interior fog. Weston’s afternoon UV is intense, especially on western-facing elevations. The seal between the glass panes fails, moisture gets in, and the glass hazes over permanently. This is not something you can wipe off. The insulated glass unit needs replacement.
- Worn or seized casement and awning crank hardware on original Arvida-era units. The gearboxes dry out. The worm drives strip. Homeowners force the handle until the mechanism breaks, and then the window is stuck open or stuck shut. We replace the operator and the hinge hardware, not just the handle.
- Roller and track degradation on CGI sliding glass doors. Afternoon storm cycles in Broward County push water against the track. Over decades, the rollers grind down, the door binds and misaligns, and water starts finding the threshold. That is when you get staining at the interior floor edge.
- Fogged or cracked impact glass that cannot be field-repaired. Impact-rated laminated glass does not crack like annealed glass. When it does fail, the entire sash or panel with the laminated unit needs replacement to preserve the impact rating.
CGI Service in Weston: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Weston is the only Broward city where almost every replacement window and Weston Door Installation must clear both a county HVHZ impact permit and a village-specific HOA architectural review. The HOA wants an exact match to the original Arvida bronze or white frame profile. The county wants Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval documentation showing the unit meets current wind-load and impact standards. If a contractor pulls the county permit without the HOA’s written approval first, the job hits a stop-work order and the homeowner waits while frames get re-ordered in the correct finish. We have seen it stall projects for months in communities like Weston Hills and The Ridges. Our process is different. We pre-submit CGI finish swatches and hurricane-mullion drawings to the HOA committee, get the written approval in hand, and only then pull the permit. That sequence saves our Weston customers weeks of delay and the cost of re-ordering non-compliant frames.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Weston
We service the CGI Estate Collection, Sentinel Series, Targa Series, and Classic Collection. That covers single-hung, casement, awning, horizontal roller, and hinged or sliding door configurations. For Estate and older Classic lines, we source OEM CGI rollers, balances, gaskets, and crank mechanisms whenever they remain available. When an original frame has structural corrosion, or the HOA will not accept a patched unit that lacks a current Miami-Dade NOA, we recommend a full-frame replacement with a modern CGI impact unit instead of pretending a repair will hold. We keep common OEM Estate rollers, balances, and gaskets on our trucks for faster turnaround on Weston calls. Less common parts we order direct and schedule the return visit before we leave the first time.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Weston
No. The county permit and the HOA review are separate approvals with separate requirements. The county checks the product’s Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval and the installation method against HVHZ wind-load standards. Your HOA checks the frame color, grid pattern, and profile against its architectural guidelines. We handle both sequentially: HOA written approval first, then the county permit. Call (954) 280-4413 if you want us to walk you through what your specific HOA requires.
Sometimes. If the frame is straight, the weep system drains, and the glass package can be replaced with a matching insulated unit, we repair the sash and leave the original frame. But if the frame has filiform corrosion at the corners or the HOA will not accept a repair on a unit without a current NOA, full replacement is the honest call. We will show you the frame condition and explain the choice on paper before any work starts. Estimates are free at (954) 280-4413.
No. Weston sits inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, same as the beach cities. The building code does not make an exception for distance from the coast. Every replacement window and door has to carry the same Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval documentation. We will register that documentation with both warranty layers before we leave.
The CGI Estate Collection is the closest match to the original Arvida-era bronze profiles we see in Weston Hills, The Ridges, and the other villages. We pre-submit a finish swatch and a hurricane-mullion drawing to your HOA committee so they approve the exact profile before anything is ordered. That removes the re-order risk. Call (954) 280-4413 for a spec review.
We do both. Glass-only replacement works when the frame is structurally sound and the original unit’s NOA is still current. When frames have pitting and filiform corrosion through the web, we rebuild the rough opening to current HVHZ wind-loads and install a full-frame CGI impact unit. On a CBS Mediterranean-style home in Weston Hills, we found four CGI Estate single-hungs with cloudy glass and pitted bottom frames that had been failing for two seasons. We replaced them with impact-rated CGI units in the exact bronze finish the HOA had on file, reframed the rough openings, and kept the job moving because the committee’s written approval was in hand before the dumpster arrived.
