AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Juno Beach, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI window and door service across Juno Beach, and the one thing that separates our work here is that we plan every job around the Atlantic. Salt-air corrosion, Palm Beach County’s 160 mph wind-load code, and the Coastal Construction Control Line aren’t occasional headaches for us. They’re the standing conditions of every estimate we write in this town. If you own a CGI window or door in Juno Beach and it’s binding, fogged, or failed an inspection, call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you straight what you’re dealing with.
Our connection to CGI sales & service runs deep, but you should know the honest footing up front: TruePane Windows & Doors is an independent service provider, not a CGI-authorized dealer. That independence works in your favor. We recommend what the building actually needs, not what a manufacturer program tells us to push. Dale Kessler, our owner, grew up around the trades and has spent the better part of two decades measuring, setting, and sealing windows across Florida’s coastal corridor. He still answers for the work personally, which is exactly how a 42-year community reputation should function. Serving Juno Beach service area is not a satellite route for us. It’s home turf for the kind of work that only makes sense if you understand salt, wind, and HOA politics.
Why Juno Beach Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
Most window companies can replace a sash. Very few can tell you which CGI Estate Collection casement operator is going to seize next, and why, and what it costs to swap before it fails. We work on CGI products almost daily across Palm Beach County’s direct-coast corridor, and in Juno Beach that means we see the same failure patterns repeat building after building: corroded bottom rails, seized Sentinel lock bolts, glazing seals going cloudy ten years ahead of schedule.
Dale Kessler learned the trade the slow way, on a shop floor at Hillsborough Community College’s construction technology program, where he spent more time setting glass than sitting in a classroom. He still lives about six blocks from where he grew up in Seminole Heights, and he runs TruePane with a rule that hasn’t changed since day one: if the pane is not true, the job is not done. That’s not a slogan. It’s the standard our techs measure to, and it means we’ll tell you when a corroded CGI frame is past saving instead of selling you a patch that fails in two seasons.
We’re background-checked, uniformed, and insured. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, not a voicemail tree. And every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard: both manufacturer warranty layers registered in writing, durations stated, before the truck leaves your driveway. If it needs to be in writing to be true, we’ll put it in writing.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Juno Beach
Here’s what we’re actually called for in Juno Beach, and why each one shows up here more than it does ten miles inland:
- White oxidation and pitting on CGI aluminum frames. Juno Beach’s entire 2-square-mile footprint sits in direct Atlantic exposure, and the salt spray doesn’t care whether you’re oceanfront or a few blocks back. We regularly see CGI frames with pitting along bottom rails and sill channels after just 8 to 12 years, far faster than the same model in Palm Beach Gardens. If the pitting is early, we clean, treat, and reseal. If it’s structural, we’ll say so.
- Seized stainless-steel multipoint lock bolts on CGI Sentinel sliding doors. The constant salt-laden wind off the Atlantic works its way past standard lubrication intervals and locks up those bolts like they’ve been welded. We strip, clean, and replace with marine-grade components where needed, and we adjust the door so it doesn’t fight you every time you slide it.
- Edge clouding and delamination on CGI impact laminated glass. Juno Beach’s salt air attacks glazing seals at the perimeter, and within 10 to 15 years you can see visible interlayer separation at the edges even though the structural impact rating is still intact. We replace the insulated glass unit with genuine CGI components when the model is still supported, and we register the warranty in writing.
- Powder-coated hardware failing on windward sides. Handles, hinges, and operator arms on the ocean-facing elevations lose their coating and flake years before the leeward side thinks about it. We replace with stainless marine hardware that’s actually suited to a building sitting in salt spray.
- Crank operators that no longer crank. On original CGI Estate Collection casements from the 1980s and 1990s, the combination of oxidation and worn gearing leaves homeowners with windows that won’t close tight. In a town where a hurricane-rated envelope is part of your insurance standing, that’s not a nuisance. That’s a compliance problem.
CGI Service in Juno Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the part most contractors miss until it’s too late. A significant portion of Juno Beach’s oceanside parcels sit seaward of Florida’s Coastal Construction Control Line, which means any Juno Beach Window Installation or door replacement on those properties requires a Florida DEP permit stacked on top of the standard Palm Beach County building permit. That’s a dual-agency review that does not exist for inland jobs in Jupiter or Palm Beach Gardens, and it adds weeks to a timeline if you don’t sequence it right. Our office files the CCCL review first and pulls CGI’s Florida Product Approvals for both agencies at the same time. That ordering cuts up to three weeks from the typical contractor’s schedule, and it means the HOA board you answer to isn’t waiting on a permit you forgot to start. If you’re a Juno Beach condo owner replacing a bank of windows in a 1970s A1A tower, that’s the difference between one season of disruption and two.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Juno Beach
We work on the CGI lines most common along the A1A corridor: the Estate Collection impact casements, Sentinel Series impact sliding glass doors, Reserve Series impact single-hung windows, and Estate Collection impact French doors. For any of these, our parts stance is simple. Where the original model is still supported, we use genuine CGI replacement hardware and seals, especially for lock bodies, balance systems, and impact glazing. Aftermarket parts rarely hold up to Juno Beach’s salt air, and the labor to install them costs as much as doing it right. Our techs recently replaced a full bank of original Estate Collection impact casements in a 1980s mid-rise on A1A near the Loggerhead Marinelife Center. The ocean-facing bottom rails were so heavily oxidized that two operators would no longer crank closed. We measured each rough opening to a quarter inch, ordered custom impact casements with stainless marine hardware, and coordinated the CCCL permit before the county inspection, all while the HOA limited us to four-hour weekday install windows. When a frame is pitted past a certain point or the insulated glass has fogged past 12 to 15 years, we recommend full frame replacement rather than patching. A partial repair on a corroded CGI unit in a coastal condo tower usually approaches 60 to 70 percent of the cost of a new impact window. We’d rather tell you that before you spend money.
CGI Service Pricing in Juno Beach
CGI window and door work in Juno Beach runs wide because the range of conditions is wide. Hardware replacement on a single casement operator might start around $250 to $500 in labor and parts. A full impact window replacement typically lands between $900 and $2,800 per opening, depending on size, model line, and whether we’re dealing with a high-rise or a ground-floor single-family home. Impact sliding glass doors are the big line item: $3,000 to $8,000 installed for most Sentinel Series replacement work. What most people don’t see in a cheaper quote is the permit sequencing and the CCCL review time. That’s real overhead, and it’s why our estimates are written as line items. You see what you’re paying for before you sign, and the price doesn’t move unless you change the scope.
| CGI Service Type | Typical Juno Beach Price Range |
|---|---|
| Hardware replacement (operator, handle, lock) | $250 - $500 |
| Insulated glass unit replacement (impact) | $600 - $1,800 per panel |
| Full impact window replacement | $900 - $2,800 per opening |
| Impact sliding glass door replacement | $3,000 - $8,000 installed |
Every estimate is free, and it includes the specific CGI model name, the parts we’re quoting, and the permit step we’ll handle first. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll schedule it.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Juno Beach
No. A CGI window installed in a 1980s building met the code that existed then, not the current Palm Beach County coastal wind-load standard, which now assumes ultimate design wind speeds around 160 mph for this stretch of A1A. If the unit has lost its glazing seal or shows frame corrosion, it may not satisfy your insurer’s current documentation requirements either. The only way to know is a physical inspection and a review of the Florida Product Approval number against today’s code. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll walk you through what your specific building needs.
Because your property sits seaward of Florida’s Coastal Construction Control Line, and the state treats any alteration to the building envelope as a potential impact on beach and dune stability. That means a Florida DEP permit packages with the county’s building permit, which is exactly the dual-agency stack that catches so many inland contractors off guard. We file them in sequence and source CGI’s Florida Product Approvals for both agencies at the same time. It’s how we cut weeks off a timeline that would otherwise sit on someone’s desk.
Sometimes we can save it. If the track is clean, the frame is intact, and the issue is a seized lock bolt or worn rollers, we replace those components with marine-grade stainless hardware and the door rolls smoothly again. If the frame has deep pitting or the glazing is fogged past 12 to 15 years, the honest answer is Juno Beach Door Installation, because a partial repair on a corroded Sentinel in a coastal condo usually runs close to two-thirds the price of a new unit. We’ll tell you which path makes sense before any money changes hands.
Yes, and more often than not they’ll have an architectural review committee that absolutely will reject a mismatched frame. That’s a practical reality of condo-heavy Juno Beach, not an overreach. We’ve coordinated with enough Juno Beach HOAs to know what to ask before we order a single unit. If your building is in a 1980s A1A tower with original bronze finishes, we’ll match that finish and get the board’s written approval before installation starts.
You need three things in hand: the Florida Product Approval for the specific CGI model, the county permit and passed inspection record, and the manufacturer warranty registration with both layers in writing. We provide all three, and we register both warranty layers with CGI before we leave the driveway. Your insurer gets a packet they can’t argue with, because the documentation came from someone who does this daily in Juno Beach’s wind zone. Call (813) 320-9346 for a free estimate and we’ll explain exactly what your carrier will need.
