AfterCGI Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
We service, repair, and replace CGI windows and doors across Pompano Beach, including the barrier island east of the Intracoastal and the CBS neighborhoods west of Federal Highway, and we also handle CGI in Coconut Creek. We’re an independent CGI service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, and the one thing that makes our CGI work different here is that we know exactly what the Atlantic salt air and Broward County’s HVHZ enforcement do to these frames after ten or twenty years. If you’ve got a CGI window that won’t close square or a slider that grinds on its track, call (754) 238-2201 and a live person answers, day or night.
We’re CGI sales & service specialists serving the entire Pompano Beach service area, from the A1A condos to the ranch homes off Atlantic Boulevard. Dale Kessler, our owner, has measured and set windows in South Florida for going on three decades, and he still measures every job himself.
Why Pompano Beach Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
Most window companies in Broward can swap a standard aluminum frame. Fewer know what to do with a 1968 CGI 7600 single-hung that’s corroded through at the corners, or a Targa slider that’s lifted off its certified engagement because wind-driven sand ate the nylon rollers. We do. Our crews work on CGI’s classic and current product lines in Pompano Beach’s HVHZ every week, from the Estate and Targa series to the older 7600 and 7700 models that show up again and again on 1950s through 1970s CBS homes. We keep a reference library of CGI’s historical NOA numbers and frame profiles, so we can spec a compliant repair or retrofit without needing a dealer badge.
We’re a second-generation glazier’s shop, not a franchise playbook. Dale trained at Miami Dade College’s vocational program, where he learned to read a rough opening slowly and without guessing. He grew up in Kendall, back when it was nurseries and canal roads, and spent summers watching his father re-glaze storefronts along the Tamiami Trail. That’s the kind of background that matters when you’re deciding whether a 12-year-old oceanfront frame is worth re-glazing or needs the whole sash replaced. The answer, by the way, is usually replacement.
We show up background-checked and uniformed, we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before the truck leaves your driveway, and our Done Right Promise means if it isn’t done right, we make it right with no paperwork fights. That’s the Keystone Standard. Every job, every time.
Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Pompano Beach
- Salt-spray corrosion on CGI Classic and 7600-series aluminum frames. Within half a mile of the ocean, corner welds and weep-hole edges pit to failure in 8 to 12 years despite the Miami-Dade NOA rating. We see it constantly on the A1A corridor, where the salt air never lets up.
- Roller track wear and lift-off on CGI Targa sliding glass doors in beachside condos. Wind-driven sand accelerates nylon roller breakdown until the panel jams or lifts out of its certified engagement. This one’s a hurricane-safety issue, not just an annoyance.
- Weatherstripping compression set and seal delamination on Estate Series fixed and picture units facing east. Wind-driven rain sneaks past the glazing pocket during a Pompano summer storm. The seal looks fine from inside until the water’s already through.
- Legacy CGI 7700 single-hungs on 1950s through 70s CBS homes with undersized header openings and no bucks. Inserts can’t be used. Full-frame replacement has to reframe the rough opening to meet current HVHZ anchor schedules. We’ve done enough of these to know the framing plan before we pull the first window.
- Failed wind-mitigation inspections on original CGI windows from the pre-Andrew era. The glass and frame predate the code, and the NOA paperwork doesn’t exist for the original install. We fix that with compliant replacements and the paper trail to prove it.
CGI Service in Pompano Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about Pompano Beach that doesn’t apply the same way anywhere else in Broward. The Miami-Dade NOA product approval gets enforced on every residential window replacement from the barrier island all the way to the western city line. But the salt-spray failure mode is concentrated east of the Intracoastal Waterway. That split creates two distinct CGI service calls. West of Federal Highway, it’s code-forced retrofits, older homes with original jalousie or narrow-frame aluminum sliders that don’t meet HVHZ impact requirements, and the work is about bringing the opening up to anchor schedule. East of the Intracoastal, it’s corrosion-driven replacements. We see 1990s-era aluminum frames on oceanfront units where the corners have corroded completely through, breaking the glazing seal and voiding the hurricane rating. Even when aluminum would pass the NOA test on paper, we default to marine-grade vinyl or fiberglass frames for anything within half a mile of the ocean.
On a 1968 CBS home off NE 16th Street east of Federal Highway, our crew pulled two original CGI 7600 single-hung aluminum windows with corners corroded through from years of salt air, breaking the seal and failing the wind-mitigation inspection. The rough openings had no solid buck, just direct block, so we reframed both openings and installed Estate Series impact single-hungs with stainless steel anchors, then re-flashed the exterior to pass the Broward County inspector on the first visit. Measure it right the first time, or plan on coming back. We measured it right.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Pompano Beach
We service and repair the full CGI lineup you’ll find in Pompano Beach. The Estate Series covers current single-hungs, casements, and picture windows, and it’s what we recommend for most oceanfront replacements when the budget allows. The Targa Series is CGI’s impact sliding glass door and window line, common in the A1A condos and the recertification projects coming out of Florida’s post-2022 building safety law. The 7600 and 7700 Series are the legacy aluminum single-hungs and sliders that dominate the CBS housing stock, and the Classic Series covers the older aluminum fixed and casement units. We use CGI’s current OEM gaskets, rollers, and hinge hardware where available. For legacy 7600 and 7700 models, we substitute marine-grade stainless or PVD-coated hardware to survive the salt-spray zone rather than reusing the factory parts that failed in the first place.
We always assess whether a corroded frame is worth re-glazing versus replacing the entire sash. For beachside units more than ten years old, replacement is usually cheaper than repeated seal jobs.
CGI Service Pricing in Pompano Beach
CGI service pricing in Pompano Beach depends on what you have, where it sits relative to the salt spray, and whether the frame is salvageable or needs full replacement. A straightforward roller and track rebuild on a Targa slider runs less than a full sash replacement on a corroded 7600. A full-frame Estate Series impact retrofit on a CBS home costs more than an insert, and the framing work around the rough opening drives that difference. Nobody should quote you a CGI job without looking at the actual windows, and we don’t.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in Pompano Beach
Almost never. Windows installed before Hurricane Andrew predate the modern HVHZ impact standards, and the original NOA paperwork either doesn’t exist or doesn’t cover current anchor schedules. A pre-1992 CGI window will not pass a wind-mitigation inspection in Pompano Beach today. We can document what you have and spec a compliant replacement. Call (754) 238-2201 for a free assessment.
Most likely yes. Along the A1A corridor, condo associations routinely require architectural review, a county permit, and proof that the replacement carries a Miami-Dade NOA that matches the existing product approval on file. We handle the paperwork and the NOA documentation. Bureaucracy shouldn’t be the reason your slider still leaks. Call (754) 238-2201 if you’re not sure what your board is asking for.
Salt spray. East of the Intracoastal Waterway, the Atlantic wind carries airborne salt that corrodes aluminum frames and hardware within years, not decades. Corner welds and weep-hole edges pit to failure in 8 to 12 years even with a valid NOA rating. A mile west, the same window lasts twice as long. That’s why we recommend marine-grade vinyl or fiberglass for anything within half a mile of the ocean.
Sometimes, but not on a 7600 or 7700 with corroded corners or a broken glazing seal. If the frame is sound and the NOA is still valid for the glass package, re-glazing can work. If the corners are pitted or the seal is delaminated, the impact rating is gone and the whole sash or frame needs replacement. For beachside units more than ten years old, replacement is usually cheaper than a second re-glazing two years later. Call (754) 238-2201 and we’ll tell you which one applies before you spend a dime.
No, not automatically. Many Broward carriers now condition policies on verified opening protection, and a compliant CGI Estate window with a current NOA can qualify you for a wind-mitigation discount. But you’ll need the proper documentation and an inspection. We provide the NOA paperwork and work with the inspectors so the credit actually lands on your policy.
