• We quote CWS repairs and replacements side by side on paper so you see exactly what you are buying.
• Every job is covered by our Done Right Promise and The Keystone Standard.

How CWS Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

CWS built a lot of sliding glass and patio doors for Miami homes over the years, and we have worked on most of the lines that show up in this market. Here are the failures we see most often, what actually causes them, and what we do about it.

• Roller collapse on the CWS 6800 and 7800 series. The original nylon rollers on these doors wear flat over time, especially when the track collects sand and shell grit from Miami driveways and pool decks. The door starts to drag, then it binds in the frame, and eventually it won’t move at all without lifting the panel. We pull the panel, replace the worn rollers with sealed stainless-steel replacements, and clean the bottom track so the new rollers don’t die in six months.
• Bottom track corrosion along the coastal corridor. Salt air from the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay eats uncoated aluminum tracks faster than you would believe. CWS doors within a mile of the water often show pitting and white corrosion where the track meets the threshold. We replace the track with a marine-grade extrusion and set it in a proper bed of sealant so water drains instead of pooling. This is one of the most common CWS patio door failures we fix in Miami.
• Fuzzy weatherstripping that turns to dust. The pile weatherstripping on CWS sliding door interlock stiles has a lifespan of roughly five to eight years in South Florida UV. After that it crumbles, letting hot air in and cool air out. We replace it with a woven-wool pile that holds up better than the original and seals tighter against the frame.
• Lock misalignment on CWS patio door handlesets. Sliding doors settle. The strike plate drifts, and one day the lock won’t throw. Homeowners call us thinking the lock is broken when the real problem is 1/8 inch of settlement in the panel. We realign or replace the strike plate and adjust the panel, and the lock works again. No new lock needed in most cases.
• Fogged glass in older CWS insulated units. The seal between the panes eventually fails, especially on the west side of the house where Miami’s afternoon heat flexes the unit all day. Once condensation shows inside the glass, the only real repair is replacing the IGU. We source replacement insulated glass cut to the exact CWS frame dimension and install it with the frame in place, which keeps labor costs down.

Our CWS Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Process

Here is how a typical CWS repair or replacement goes in one of our trucks, start to finish.

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. A live person picks up the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You describe the problem. We schedule a time that works for you.
2. 2
   We measure and diagnose. A background-checked, uniformed technician comes out, measures the opening twice, and finds the actual cause of the failure. Dale Kessler still measures every job himself.
3. 3
   You get a written quote. We put OEM and quality aftermarket options side by side on paper. You see part costs, labor, and the exact warranty terms before you approve anything.
4. 4
   We do the work. The repair or replacement is done in one visit in most cases. We work clean, cover the floor, and treat the house like our own.
5. 5
   We test the door. The panel slides, locks, seals, and drains before we call the job done. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
6. 6
   You get the Keystone Standard. Both manufacturer warranty layers are registered in writing before the truck leaves. Your Done Right Promise starts the day we finish.
