CGI Door Replacement in Fort Lauderdale: What to Know First

CGI door replacement in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $1,800 to $6,400 depending on the line, size, and glass package, and most jobs are completed in one to two days once the door is on site. We’re an independent CGI service provider, not a manufacturer-authorized dealer, which means we call parts and labor decisions exactly as we see them without a corporate script. If you own a CGI door that’s sagging, leaking, or failed a wind-mitigation inspection, call (754) 354-1396 and we’ll give you a written price before anything gets ordered.

How CGI Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

• Sentinel Series sagging and panel misalignment. The Sentinel line uses a multi-point lock system that depends on the door leaf staying perfectly square. In Fort Lauderdale, the constant humidity cycles expand and contract the frame enough that hinge screws back out over time. We realign the slab, re-shim hinges, and replace the hinge screws with longer fasteners that bite into the rough opening framing. If the slab itself is warped, we quote replacement rather than patch it.
• Estate Collection roller track wear. CGI’s Estate sliding glass doors ride on stainless rollers, but salt air from the Intracoastal accelerates pitting on the track surface. Owners describe a grinding feel or a door that suddenly takes two hands to move. We replace rollers and, when the lower track is scored, install a new track insert rather than replacing the whole panel. That’s a $400 to $700 fix versus a $3,000-plus door.
• Weatherstripping failure on older CGI models. The original weatherstripping on 10-to-15-year-old CGI doors turns brittle under South Florida UV exposure. You’ll feel a hot draft or see light bleeding through the seam. We replace it with a marine-grade pile and vinyl compression seal that holds its shape longer than the original spec.
• Impact glass delamination in early-generation doors. Some CGI doors from the early 2000s were built before the current laminated interlayer formulas were standard. We’ve seen clouding and edge separation in doors around Imperial Point and Coral Ridge Country Club Estates. There’s no safe field repair for delaminated glass; the panel gets replaced with a current impact-rated unit that carries a fresh warranty.
• Threshold leaks on the CGI Classic line. The Classic series threshold relies on a rubber sweep that degrades fast when it’s repeatedly hit with afternoon downpours and standing water. We pull the door, reset the threshold on fresh sealant, and swap in a compression-style sweep that tolerates the daily wet-dry cycle better than the factory part.

Our CGI Door Replacement Process

1. 1
   You call (754) 354-1396. A live person answers, 24/7, and books your visit. No call center queue, no “press 2 for service.”
2. 2
   We inspect the door and the opening. Sean Mackey’s team measures the slab, checks the rough opening for rot or settlement, and documents every angle. About a third of our CGI replacement jobs reveal frame issues the homeowner hadn’t noticed yet.
3. 3
   We give you a written price. Parts, labor, disposal, tax – every line item in writing before you approve anything. No estimate that shifts once the old door is out.
4. 4
   We order the right parts. We use CGI OEM components whenever lead times and warranty coverage call for it. When an aftermarket part genuinely outperforms the original spec – rollers, sweeps, some hardware – we tell you why and price both options.
5. 5
   We install and test. The new door is hung, shimmed, sealed, and cycled. We fire the multi-point lock a dozen times, mist-test the threshold, and confirm the reveal is even top to bottom.
6. 6
   You get photos and a digital invoice. We document the finished work – including what’s behind the trim – and email the invoice from the job site. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to the entire installation, parts and labor, in writing.

What CGI Door Replacement Costs in Fort Lauderdale

Here’s the honest math, based on the jobs we’ve done across Fort Lauderdale this year:

• CGI single door, non-impact, standard size: $1,800 to $2,600 installed
• CGI Sentinel impact-rated single door: $3,200 to $4,800 installed
• CGI Estate sliding glass door replacement (two-panel): $3,900 to $6,400 installed
• Roller, sweep, or weatherstripping repair only: $150 to $700 depending on the part and track condition

What moves the price? Panel size, impact versus non-impact glass, whether the frame or threshold survives, and whether we’re replacing hardware or just the slab. Before you approve anything, you’ll have the exact number in writing. Call (754) 354-1396 for a free estimate.

Why Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Call Juniper Windows Fort Lauderdale for CGI Work

Because we actually know the brand. We’ve rebuilt enough CGI doors in Fort Lauderdale to recognize a Sentinel sag by its lock feel before we touch the hinges. We’re also the windows-and-doors specialist inside the Relay Home Co. family, which means eight product lines – PGT, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, and more – so if a replacement makes more sense than a repair, you’ll see the comparable options side by side instead of being pushed toward one brand. Every job gets a written price before work starts, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers it afterward. If something isn’t right within a year, we return and fix it, no charge and no argument.
