AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Golf, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI window and door service throughout Golf, Florida. The work here is different from anywhere else in Palm Beach County because every residence in this village sits surrounded by live fairway play, which means impact glazing has to do two jobs at once. Call (561) 708-6771 for a straight answer on repair or replacement.
TruePane has worked on CGI’s aluminum impact lines across coastal Palm Beach County for years. We know the hardware, the glazing, and the failure patterns these units develop in salt air. We’re not manufacturer-affiliated, but we are the crew Golf homeowners call for Golf Door Installation when a CGI door starts dragging or a casement won’t seal.
Why Golf Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
Most window companies in this part of Florida can install a stock impact unit. Golf doesn’t have many stock openings. The homes here are custom, mid-century or heavily renovated, with oversized architectural glazing and entry systems that were measured once and built to fit. Getting replacement parts or matched glass for those openings takes a company that reads the original product labels and knows which CGI distributors still carry the balance assemblies and compression seals those units were built with.
Dale Kessler, our owner, grew up in Palm Beach County and learned the glazing trade through Palm Beach State College’s building construction program before spending nearly two decades setting frames across the county. He’s the one who checks Florida Product Approval numbers against Palm Beach County’s wind maps before anything gets ordered. That habit matters in Golf, where one mismatched document can stall a county inspection.
We measure twice. We register both warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway. And if something isn’t right, the Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right without a paperwork argument. If it’s not in writing, it’s not a guarantee, it’s a conversation.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Golf
- Salt-pitted and chalky aluminum frames. Golf’s Atlantic proximity puts persistent salt humidity into the air, and north-facing façades never get enough direct sun to dry after morning condensation. CGI’s aluminum finishes can develop pitting and oxidation faster here than they would twenty miles inland. We assess whether the frame is worth refinishing or has corroded past the point where new seals and hardware will seat correctly.
- Casement windows that are hard to close or won’t seal. The compression weatherstripping on CGI casement sashes loses its resilience within five to seven years near the coast. When that seal collapses, the sash closes stiff and air leaks around the perimeter. We replace the OEM weatherstripping and re-align the hinge hardware so the sash seats evenly.
- Sliding glass doors that stick or derail from golf course grit. Homes on Golf’s fairways deal with sand and fine grit blowing into the lower track of patio sliders. CGI sliding doors pick up that grit in the rollers, which leads to flat spots, sticking, and eventually derailment. We strip the track, replace rollers with OEM-grade parts, and get the door gliding again.
- Impact glass delamination or seal failure on west-facing openings. Unshaded west-facing glass in Golf takes brutal afternoon heat cycling. Older CGI units, especially the 900 Series, can develop seal failure between the laminated lites, showing as internal fogging or a milky cast. Once a laminated impact lite delaminates, the impact rating is compromised, and the right fix is replacement, not a cosmetic patch.
- Failed balances on double-hung impact windows. Older CGI double-hung units found in mid-century Golf homes use block-and-tackle or spiral balances. When those wear out, the sash won’t stay up. We replace balances with OEM-grade components matched to the sash weight, so the window operates like it should and stays within its documented rating.
CGI Service in Golf: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
The Village of Golf is entirely encircled by the Palm Beach Country Club’s active fairways. That single fact changes how impact glazing gets specified and serviced here compared to North Palm Beach or Lake Park. Every Golf Window Installation we work on is judged not only by Palm Beach County’s wind-borne debris requirements but also by the homeowner’s everyday reality of an errant drive clearing the rough and finding a window. So we spec CGI’s heaviest laminated glass and verify each unit’s Florida Product Approval against the county’s own wind-speed contour documents before we order a custom opening.
This shows up in ways a generic service call misses. A CGI Estate Collection French door that faces the fairway needs its compression seals in better condition than the same door facing a quiet side yard. A deteriorated seal on a fairway-facing unit is not a comfort problem. It’s the difference between a unit that shrugs off a stray ball and one that lets the lite flex enough to delaminate. We check seal compression, hardware alignment, and lite condition with that specific exposure in mind.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Golf
We service the CGI lines most common in Golf’s housing stock. That includes the Sentinel Series aluminum impact casements, awnings, and fixed picture windows used in recent renovations, the Estate Collection custom French doors and oversized entry systems found on larger properties, the 900 Series fixed and hung impact windows in older mid-century homes, and the Sistema heavy-duty sliding glass doors popular on fairway-facing and pool-side walls.
Our approach to parts is simple. We source OEM-grade balances, rollers, weatherstripping, and handle sets through reputable CGI distributors first. Mixing aftermarket components into a unit that must hold a documented impact rating is a bad trade. But we’ll also tell you plainly when a mid-century CGI frame has corroded far enough that repeated repairs are throwing money after a unit that should be replaced.
CGI Service Pricing in Golf
CGI service pricing in Golf depends on what the unit needs. A weatherstripping replacement on a casement runs different money than a full track and roller rebuild on a Sistema slider, and replacing a delaminated impact lite on an Estate Collection French door is a bigger job than either. Salt corrosion and fairway grit both add labor here that a unit in a salt-free inland community wouldn’t need.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Golf
Florida Product Approval is what Palm Beach County inspectors verify against the county’s own wind-speed maps, not Miami-Dade HVHZ approval. Contractors unfamiliar with Golf’s unincorporated-style permitting sometimes bring Miami-Dade spec’d products assuming they exceed requirements, but the county checks its own contour documents. We confirm each unit’s approval against those county maps before ordering.
The compression weatherstripping has typically lost resilience. Near the coast, that happens within five to seven years. When the seal collapses, the sash binds and air leaks. We replace the OEM weatherstripping and re-align the hinge hardware. Call (561) 708-6771 for a free estimate on the repair.
Yes, in most cases. We identify the original CGI product line, verify the lite composition and thickness, and source replacement glass or full units that meet or exceed the original documented impact rating. Matching older 900 Series fixed lites requires attention to frame depth and glazing stops, which we handle in the field.
Check the documentation first. A valid Florida Product Approval label and matching paperwork is the starting point. Then we inspect the rollers, track condition, interlock engagement, and lite integrity. A door with seized rollers or delaminated glass is not performing to its rating, whatever the label says. We’ll give you a straight answer on whether service or replacement is the responsible call.
It can, if the replacement lite doesn’t match the original laminate composition and the work isn’t documented. That’s why we order glass through reputable CGI distributors and verify the lite spec against the unit’s original approval. The rating holds when the repair matches the build. For an exact quote on a broken lite, call (561) 708-6771.
