AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Sunrise, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We provide independent CGI Sunrise Window Installation and door service across Sunrise, from single broken panes to full impact replacements. The one thing that makes our CGI work here different is this: Sunrise sits entirely inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so nearly every repair on an older CGI unit turns into a code-driven decision about NOA compliance. If you have a CGI window or door that needs attention, call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll tell you straight what your Sunrise home actually requires.
Why Sunrise Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We know CGI product lines the way a mechanic knows a particular engine family. We have worked on Legacy 75 casements, Estate Collection impact units, Heritage Series single hungs, and Melbourne Series sliders in enough Sunrise homes to know which failure patterns show up where. Dale Kessler founded this company in 2008 after years of watching out-of-true installs and voided warranties cost homeowners real money, and that’s still the thing that bothers us most: a window that was never set right, or a warranty claim that died on a technicality.
We’re independent. That matters because we don’t have to protect a manufacturer’s margin. When a CGI unit needs an OEM sash or a laminated glass pack, we use it. When a non-impact component like a roller or weatherstripping can be replaced with a quality aftermarket part that meets spec, we’ll say so and price it honestly. We hand you side-by-side manufacturer line quotes on paper so you see exactly what you’re buying, and we register both warranty layers before the truck leaves your driveway. That’s The Keystone Standard, and it applies to every CGI service call we run in Sunrise.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Sunrise
- Pitted and oxidizing aluminum frames. Original 1990s CGI single-pane aluminum frames don’t age well in Sunrise. The combination of salt-laden Atlantic air and year-round intense UV causes pitting and white oxidation along the bottom rails within 10 to 12 years, and once the frame loses its integrity, the window becomes a code compliance problem, not just a cosmetic one.
- Fogged insulated glass units. Early-generation CGI insulated glass had seals that fail over time, and Sunrise’s relentless humidity accelerates the process. Once the seal goes, you get persistent fogging between the panes. In an HVHZ city, that fogged unit usually can’t be reglazed piecemeal. It has to be replaced with NOA-approved laminated impact glass to keep the opening legal.
- Jalousie windows in secondary rooms. Across Sunrise’s 1970s and 1980s condo corridors around Pine Island Road and Nob Hill Road, original jalousie or louvered windows still linger in bathrooms and secondary bedrooms. These cannot be repaired or retrofitted into HVHZ compliance. They have to come out entirely and get replaced with NOA-approved CGI impact units. We see at least one on nearly every service call in those communities.
- Corroded and binding sliding glass door tracks. On original CGI sliders in east Sunrise communities, the tracks corrode and bind within five to seven years. A door that won’t glide isn’t just an annoyance; in Sunrise it’s a wind-load failure waiting to be discovered by a building inspector. Track replacement sometimes solves it, but many of those older doors need a full swap to meet current HVHZ ratings.
- Failed crank mechanisms on casement windows. Sunrise’s damp air works its way into CGI casement hardware and seizes the cranks. When the frame is still sound, we can sometimes free the mechanism and replace the hardware. When the frame is pitted and the glass is single-pane, repair stops making sense and replacement becomes the straight answer.
CGI Service in Sunrise: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Sunrise is not like Fort Lauderdale’s high-rise coast, and it’s not like Plantation or Davie either. The city’s residential fabric is dominated by concrete block homes and low-rise condo communities built between roughly 1965 and 1990, and a striking number of them along the Pine Island Road and Nob Hill Road corridors still carry original jalousie windows in secondary rooms. Here’s what that means for CGI owners specifically: those jalousie units cannot be repaired into compliance, full stop. A homeowner calling about a broken crank or a missing louver in one of those units is really looking at a full NOA-approved impact replacement for the entire opening. That’s not a sales pitch. It’s Broward County code, and it’s the same requirement that forces every permitted replacement in Sunrise to carry a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. Generic CGI pages don’t explain this because they don’t know Sunrise. We work here.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Sunrise
We service the CGI lines most commonly found in Sunrise homes: Legacy 75 Casement Windows, Estate Collection Impact Windows, Heritage Series Single Hung, and Melbourne Series Sliding Glass Doors. Our parts approach is simple. For structural and impact-rated components like sashes, laminated glass, and reinforced frames, we use OEM CGI parts because those carry the NOA markings that Sunrise building officials check. For non-impact hardware like rollers, screens, and weatherstripping, we may install aftermarket equivalents that meet or exceed CGI specs, and when a major repair is going to cost more than a full replacement, we’ll tell you that before you spend a dollar. We keep common Sunrise turnaround parts stocked locally so you’re not waiting on a freight line from the manufacturer.
CGI Service Pricing in Sunrise
Here’s what our Sunrise customers typically see. A basic CGI window service call runs $85 to $150 for diagnosis and minor hardware work. Track replacement on a Melbourne Series slider runs $180 to $340. Replacing a fogged insulated glass unit in an Estate Collection window runs $400 to $800 per opening. Full CGI impact replacement on a jalousie opening in a condo corridor runs $1,200 to $2,600 depending on size and framing. And replacing an entire condo unit’s original CGI windows runs $6,000 to $12,000. Your exact quote comes from the opening itself, not from a chart, and our estimates are free. Call (813) 320-9346 and we’ll price it in writing.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Sunrise
Because Sunrise sits inside Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and any permitted window repair must result in an opening that meets current impact-glazing code. Your 1980s CGI frame may not be rated for modern NOA-approved laminated glass, and installing impact glass into a frame that wasn’t designed for it violates the manufacturer’s installation parameters and fails inspection. In practice, a broken pane in an original Sunrise CGI window usually means replacing the entire window, not just the glass. Call (813) 320-9346 for a straight answer on your specific opening.
The Estate Collection Impact Casement and Heritage Series Single Hung are the two models most often specified by Sunrise condo associations along the Pine Island Road corridor. HOAs like these because both lines carry Miami-Dade NOA approvals and present a uniform look across multiple buildings. If your association has sent you a spec sheet, bring it to our attention when you call. We’ll match the model and the paperwork to the letter.
Yes. The Heritage Series Single Hung is NOA-approved and accepted by Sunrise building officials for permitted replacements within the city’s HVHZ requirements. We register the NOA documentation with your job file and both warranty layers before our truck leaves your driveway. That’s standard practice for us, not an upgrade.
Salt-laden air is heavier and hangs lower, and Sunrise’s position at the eastern edge of Broward County means more direct Atlantic exposure than communities further west like Plantation or Davie. The result is faster pitting and white oxidation on CGI aluminum frames, especially along bottom rails where moisture collects. We see 1990s CGI frames in Sunrise with corrosion patterns that match what you’d find in coastal Dade County, not central Broward. That’s why a frame inspection matters before anyone quotes a pane-only repair. For a free estimate on your Sunrise home, call (813) 320-9346.
Rarely. A 1992 CGI slider frame was not built for the weight and thickness of modern laminated impact glass, and the track system and reinforcement points don’t meet current HVHZ wind-load ratings. In most cases, retrofitting the glass means the frame still fails the structural review, so you end up paying for a door that can’t be permitted. The honest move is a full Sunrise Door Installation with a current NOA-approved CGI model. We’ll walk you through the numbers so you can decide with both eyes open. Call (813) 320-9346 to get a written quote.
