CGI Sliding Glass & Patio Doors in Boynton Beach: What to Know First
We repair and replace CGI sliding glass and patio doors throughout Boynton Beach as an independent CGI service provider. Most track adjustments, roller replacements, and lock repairs are done in a single visit, while full door replacements typically run two to three weeks from measure to install. Pricing is straightforward: you’ll see the line items on paper before any work begins, and most repairs fall between $180 and $650 depending on what’s actually wrong.
This page is for CGI door owners who want to know exactly what’s going on with their door before they spend a dime. If your CGI slider is binding, leaking, or getting hard to lock, call us at (561) 708-6771 and we’ll talk through what you’re seeing.
How CGI Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Roller collapse on Classic Series sliders. The original nylon rollers CGI used on many Classic Series units wear flat on one side after years of coastal air and daily use. The door drops half an inch, scrapes the track, and the handle suddenly needs two hands. We replace the rollers with stainless-steel assemblies, clean and realign the track, and set the door back to level. Done right, it glides with one finger again.
- Track deformation from salt and storm debris. Boynton Beach’s salt air settles into aluminum track channels and works against the roller bearings. Track sections corrode, and fine sand from beach-side yards grinds away at the metal. We see this most on CGI fixed-panel tracks during summer months. The fix is a track inspection, cleaning, and in many cases a replacement section matched to the original profile so the door carries its full weight evenly.
- Lock misalignment on Estate Collection doors. CGI’s multi-point lock system is a good one, but the strike plates can shift when a house settles or when the door gets slammed during a hurry to close up before an afternoon storm. The latch catches halfway, and the door won’t secure. We correct the geometry rather than forcing the lock to fit the old holes. That means re-shimming the panel, resetting the strike, and testing the full throw of every bolt.
- Interlock seal failure between fixed and sliding panels. The interlock is where water and wind pressure concentrate during a storm. When that seal ages out, you’ll find a fine mist or a small stream along the meeting rail during heavy rain. We replace the interlock weatherstripping with an OEM or equivalent profile and reset the panels so the closing compression is even from top to bottom. This is a common CGI issue we routinely fix before hurricane season arrives.
- Glass seal fogging on CGI patio doors with insulated glass. A fogged seal shows up right around hurricane season, never in March. The pressure changes and humidity make the seal failure visible. When that happens, we replace the insulated glass unit rather than the whole door frame, which saves real money and keeps the original CGI structural frame intact. We order the IGU to the specified dimensions and thermal performance, then retest the door for fit and closure.
Our CGI Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Process
- 1
Call and describe the problem. A live person answers at (561) 708-6771. We’ll ask what you’re seeing and hearing, and we’ll give you a straight answer about whether it’s worth scheduling a visit.
- 2
Diagnosis on site. Our technician measures the door opening, checks the rollers, track, lock, and seal, and identifies what’s failed and why. We measure every opening twice before we quote anything.
- 3
Parts decision, OEM vs aftermarket. For warranty-protected situations, we order and install OEM CGI parts. Where the original has a known weak point, we offer a durable aftermarket alternative and show you the difference on paper before you choose.
- 4
The repair or replacement. For repairs, most work is completed the same visit. For full door replacements, we manage the ordering, permitting if required, and installation with background-checked, uniformed technicians on the job.
- 5
Testing and registration. We test the door’s operation, seal, and locking points, then we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway.
- 6
The Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork fights, no arguing.

Why Boynton Beach Homeowners Call TruePane Windows & Doors for CGI Work
We’ve been serving Palm Beach County since 2008 through a craft tradition Dale Kessler started in 2008 when he founded TruePane Windows & Doors. Dale grew up off Lawrence Road in the Meadows section of Boynton Beach, so he knows exactly what these doors go through every summer. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they treat your home the way they’d treat their own mother’s. We’re also an authorized installer for more than a dozen manufacturer lines, including PGT, CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, so if a CGI door is beyond repair and another line makes more sense, we can show you options side by side. We’ll be there when we say, and if the pane is not true, the job is not done.
FAQs
No, not when it’s done correctly. As an independent CGI service provider, we follow warranty-safe practices: OEM parts where required, correct installation methods, and written documentation of the work. If there’s an active warranty question on your door, we’ll walk you through what’s covered before we touch anything. Call (561) 708-6771 and we’ll help you figure out where you stand.
With proper maintenance, the frame and structural components last 20 to 30 years. Rollers, seals, and locks wear out faster because of salt air, heat, and humidity. Those are the parts we replace most often in Boynton Beach. If your door is over 15 years old and binding or leaking, a repair may buy you years; if the frame is sound but the hardware is tired, replacing the hardware is the smart money. Call us at (561) 708-6771 for an honest assessment.
Most roller, lock, and seal repairs are done in a single visit. Full door replacements take two to three weeks from measure to installation. We’ll tell you which one you’re looking at before you schedule, so there are no surprises. Call (561) 708-6771 and we’ll give you a straight answer about timing.
If the frame is square, the glass is intact, and the failure is in the rollers, track, lock, or seals, repair is almost always the better call. If the frame is pitted, the glass package is failed, or the door no longer meets current Florida impact requirements, replacement makes sense. We’ll show you both options in writing and let you decide. Call (561) 708-6771 for a free estimate with no obligation.
