AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Jupiter Inlet Colony, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI window and door service across Jupiter Inlet Colony, from our Door Installation in Jupiter Inlet Colony for corroded 900 Series sliding door tracks to replacing fogged picture windows in mid-century homes. What sets our work apart here is simple: we know that on this narrow barrier strip, the inlet-facing west side corrodes just as fast as the oceanfront east side, and we plan every repair accordingly. We are not manufacturer-affiliated or authorized, which means we answer to you, not to a warranty department. If you need CGI service in Jupiter Inlet Colony, call (813) 320-9346 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Why Jupiter Inlet Colony Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We have torn down and rebuilt more CGI window and door systems in Jupiter Inlet Colony than any local independent shop. That is not marketing talk. It is what happens when you spend years matching the right CGI model to a town where every house sits within a few hundred feet of salt water, and where the inlet’s constant tidal flush keeps airborne salt concentration elevated even on calm days. Our crews know which CGI frame profiles pit first, which gaskets dry out fastest, and which hardware seizes when salt crystals build up in the tracks. Dale Kessler, our founder, grew up in a family that ran a building-maintenance outfit for thirty years, and he learned early that a callback is a character flaw, not just an inconvenience. That is the standard we bring to every CGI repair in Jupiter Inlet Colony. We also answer the phone. A live person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Not a voicemail tree, not a regional call center. You call, we answer.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Jupiter Inlet Colony
- Pitting and white oxidation on aluminum frame bottom rails. We see this on CGI frames within 8 to 12 years on both oceanfront and inlet-facing homes in Jupiter Inlet Colony. The inlet’s tidal flow drives salt spray from multiple compass points simultaneously, so there is no sheltered side of the island. The bottom rail of a Classic Impact window facing the inlet often looks identical to one facing the ocean, which surprises owners who assumed the west side was protected.
- Premature insulated glass seal failure causing fogging in fixed and picture windows. The salt-laden air in Jupiter Inlet Colony attacks the sealant around the glass unit, especially on the narrower west side where homeowners assume they are leeward and therefore safe. They are not. We regularly replace fogged IG units in homes where the owner never expected corrosion to reach.
- Sliding glass door rollers and track hardware seizing from salt crystallization. The constant tidal airflow in Jupiter Inlet Colony deposits salt into CGI 900 Series tracks faster than you would believe. Rollers bind, tracks pit, and the door becomes a two-person job. We clean the tracks, replace rollers with genuine CGI parts or 316 marine-grade stainless aftermarket equivalents when CGI parts are discontinued, and re-align the door so it operates with one hand.
- Delaminated laminate or failed gasketing on older CGI casement windows. The combination of salt, humidity, and UV breaks down gasketing on CGI casement windows faster in Jupiter Inlet Colony than in inland Jupiter. When gaskets fail, wind-driven rain infiltrates during even minor squalls, and the interior wood or drywall below the window pays for it.
- Corrosion on fasteners and weatherstripping hidden behind trim. We pull trim off during service calls in Jupiter Inlet Colony and find corroded fasteners that have not been visible since installation. This is a direct result of the persistent airborne salt. We replace with stainless steel and re-seal before reassembling.
CGI Service in Jupiter Inlet Colony: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Because every home in Jupiter Inlet Colony sits within 500 feet of either the Atlantic surf or the Jupiter Inlet’s tidal channel, there is no leeward side. CGI frames on the inlet-facing west side of the island show the same degree of salt pitting and corrosion as oceanfront east-facing units within the same 5 to 7 year window. That pattern holds nowhere else in the broader Jupiter area. In Jupiter Farms or Abacoa, a west-facing wall might stay remarkably clean. Here, the inlet’s tidal flushing keeps airborne salt moving over the entire land parcel all day and night. For CGI owners this means one thing: your inspection and maintenance schedule should not depend on which side of the street you live on. It should depend on the calendar. We tell every Jupiter Inlet Colony customer the same thing: if you have CGI windows or doors on the west side of the island, treat them exactly like oceanfront units. Check the bottom rails for white oxidation before every hurricane season. Clean the sliding door tracks twice a year, not once. And if you see fog between the panes, that is not cosmetic. The seal has failed and moisture is inside the unit.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Jupiter Inlet Colony
We service the full CGI line that we encounter in Jupiter Inlet Colony: the CGI Sentinel Series, the CGI Estate Collection, CGI Classic Impact Windows, and the CGI 900 Series Sliding Glass Doors. Our approach on parts is straightforward. We default to genuine CGI replacement parts because their marine-grade specs are tailored to this exact corrosion environment. Sashes, rollers, locks, weatherstripping: genuine wherever available. When CGI parts are discontinued for older models, we use quality aftermarket components in stainless or 316 marine grade, never cheap substitutes. We also stock the hardware and sealants most commonly needed for Jupiter Inlet Colony service calls, which speeds up turnaround for scheduled appointments. If your frames are beyond a quarter-inch of pitting, we will tell you plainly that replacement is the honest path, and we will quote you a new CGI unit without pressure.
CGI Service Pricing in Jupiter Inlet Colony
CGI service pricing in Jupiter Inlet Colony depends on the failure mode, the model, and the degree of corrosion. Here is where costs typically land for this market:
- Sliding door roller and track rebuild (900 Series): $280 to $650 per door, depending on track damage and whether the rollers need full replacement.
- IG seal failure repair (fogged fixed or picture window): $190 to $520 per window, depending on glass package and frame condition.
- Full frame replacement with new CGI Sentinel Series unit: $1,100 to $2,400 per opening, depending on size, anchoring work, and trim.
- Frame corrosion mitigation (bottom rail cleaning, sanding, marine sealant treatment): $175 to $400 per window or door when pitting is caught early.
Every estimate includes a written line-item breakdown. We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise means if it is not done right, we make it right with no paperwork and no arguing. If the pane is not true, the job is not done. Call (813) 320-9346 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Jupiter Inlet Colony
Yes, they do. The inlet’s constant tidal flushing keeps airborne salt concentration elevated across the entire narrow land parcel, so west-facing CGI frames pit and oxidize on nearly the same 5 to 7 year schedule as east-facing ones. This is unique to Jupiter Inlet Colony’s geography. If you live on the west side, inspect your bottom rails twice a year. Call (813) 320-9346 if you see white oxidation forming.
In most cases we can replace the rollers, clean or replace the track, and get your door moving again without replacing the entire assembly. The exception is when the frame itself has corroded beyond a quarter-inch of pitting or the track has delaminated from the sill. We will show you the damage before we recommend replacement. We never sell a new door where a roller kit will do the job.
Almost always, yes. Jalousie openings in Jupiter Inlet Colony’s mid-century homes are narrower than modern rough openings, but CGI offers fixed and casement impact units in dimensions that fit many of those original frames without structural changes. Our tech pulled a 1990s CGI Classic fixed picture window from a mid-century home on Colony Road that faced the inlet. The extruded aluminum frame had deep white oxidation along the bottom channel, and the insulated glass unit had failed with permanent fog. We replaced the entire assembly with our Window Installation in Jupiter Inlet Colony, a new CGI Sentinel Series fixed window in the same rough opening, installing stainless steel perimeter anchors and replacing the corroded interior fasteners before applying a marine-grade sealant. That is the standard on every opening: measure twice, anchor in stainless, seal it tight.
Yes. Jupiter Inlet Colony enforces Palm Beach County high-wind codes, and any window or door replacement requires a permit. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and make sure the installation passes. That is part of the job, not an add-on. Call (813) 320-9346 and we will walk you through the timeline.
That fog is a failed insulated glass seal. Salt-laden air in Jupiter Inlet Colony attacks the sealant around the glass unit over time, especially on the west side where owners assume they are protected. Once the seal fails, moisture gets inside the unit and condenses between the panes. The glass unit needs replacement. Call (813) 320-9346 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.
