Sightline Windows & Doors Sunrise is not affiliated with or authorized by CGI. We are an independent service provider that knows these products because we have measured, repaired, and replaced them across Broward County since 2012. In Sunrise specifically, the housing stock built between the late 1960s and early 1980s, including massive communities like Sunrise Lakes, still carries original aluminum single-pane windows installed decades before Florida’s post-Hurricane Andrew impact mandates. For homeowners in nearby areas, we also offer CGI Windows & Doors in Tamarac, FL. Broward County now enforces 140+ mph design wind-load compliance on every permitted replacement, which means virtually every window and door job here is simultaneously a retrofit and a full impact upgrade. That combination is less common in newer cities, and it is the context we work inside every day.

Why Trust Sightline Windows & Doors Sunrise for Your CGI Windows & Doors?

Sonia Raman, who leads our operation, grew up in Miami and learned window fabrication and door installation through a vocational program at Miami Dade College’s Kendall Campus, working every stage of the trade before she ever quoted a job independently. She has spent well over a decade measuring, ordering, and setting windows and doors across Sunrise, including work in the Inverrary neighborhood that she still references when explaining sightline alignment to new hires. Her Window Installation services are built on this same precision. Her reputation was built specifically on impact-rated installations where the rough opening and unit tolerances are reconciled on paper before a single fastener goes in. That keeps callbacks low and inspection sign-offs clean.

Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before arrival, per Haven Clause 3. Every job leaves a documented photo record, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every invoice, not offered as a courtesy. We name prices in dollars on the page because Haven Clause 1 says the measurement and the quote are the same document. The customer keeps the measured survey, and the written scope does not change once work starts.

On weekends, Sonia tracks weather data the way other people track box scores. In Broward County, the gap between a correctly bedded frame and a leaking one shows up the first time a named storm runs up the coast. That attention to installation detail matters for CGI impact units, where the glazing, frame, and fastening system are engineered as a single assembly.

Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Fix in Sunrise

• Flattened roller assemblies on CGI Series 1500 horizontal rollers and Series 3000 3-lite sliders. The nylon rollers grind against sand and grit that collects in the bottom track, flattening over time until the sash drags instead of gliding. In Sunrise, where salt-laden air and periodic coastal flooding push debris inland, this happens faster than in drier climates. We pull the sashes, flush the channel, and install new weight-rated roller assemblies matched to the laminated glass load.
• Thermal-weld seam failure at sash corners on CGI Sentinel vinyl impact frames. South Florida’s intense UV and heat cycling stress the vinyl welds until hairline cracks appear or corners separate entirely. Once the weld opens, water bypasses the sill and pools in the wall. We inspect the weld integrity before quoting; if the crack propagates into the frame chamber, replacement is the honest recommendation.
• Shrinking glazing beads and factory gaskets on CGI impact units. The rubberized glazing bead that seats the laminated glass shrinks away from the edge over years of heat exposure, which shows up as interior fogging or a sash that rattles in wind. This is a maintenance item until the gasket pulls far enough to compromise the impact seal, at which point re-glazing or sash replacement is necessary.
• Multi-point lock and keeper drift on CGI entry and French doors. As the door slab settles and the frame responds to seasonal humidity, the multi-point bolts no longer align with the keepers. The door feels hard to latch and may not fully engage the impact-rated locking points. We measure the reveal, shim the hinges, and reset the hardware to factory spacing rather than forcing the lock to compensate for frame movement.
• Aluminum frame oxidation on older CGI units in Sunrise Lakes and Inverrary-area homes. The original non-impact aluminum frames installed before the 1990s oxidize where the anodized coating has worn, particularly at weep channels and meeting rails. This is cosmetic until it pits the frame wall; once pitting reaches the glazing pocket, the unit no longer meets Broward County’s structural requirements for replacement.

CGI Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach

We use genuine CGI-spec rollers, gaskets, glazing beads, and multi-point hardware when the profile is still in production. When CGI has discontinued a part, we match by dimension with quality aftermarket equivalents, always weight-rated for the laminated impact glass they will carry. Our local stock covers the most common CGI Series 1300, 1500, and 3000 hardware profiles.

The decision between repair and replacement is straightforward: if the sash or frame itself is cracked at the weld, or if the glass seal is compromised between laminated panes, we tell homeowners directly that replacement beats chasing a repair. A re-welded vinyl corner rarely holds the same structural integrity as the original thermal weld, and resealing impact glass in the field does not restore the factory-tested glazing specification. We document both options in writing, with line-item pricing for each, before any work starts. Call (754) 254-5294 for a free estimate and we will show you exactly what we found.

Our CGI Service Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Diagnosis with measured survey. We inspect the CGI unit, record frame readings, sightline measurements, and product specs, and identify the series and glazing configuration. The customer keeps the measured survey. For Sunrise Lakes condo jobs, we also verify whether association architectural approval is required before permit pull, since the two-track process routinely causes delays for contractors who do not pre-submit.
2. 2
   Repair or install with documented scope. We perform the agreed work using CGI-compatible or genuine-spec parts, photographed at each stage. The written scope matches the quote exactly, per Haven Clause 1.
3. 3
   Operational test and alignment check. For sliders, we verify glide force across the full track length. For doors, we check multi-point engagement and reveal consistency. For impact units, we confirm glazing bead seating and gasket compression.
4. 4
   Warranty documentation and photo record. The completed job file includes before-and-after photos, the final invoice matching the original quote, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped on the document. The customer receives a copy of everything.

CGI Products We Service & Install in Sunrise

We work on the full CGI residential line: Series 1300 Single Hung Impact Window, Series 1500 Horizontal Roller Impact Window, Series 3000 3-Lite Sliding Impact Window, and the Sentinel Vinyl Impact Window & Door Line. Our local stock includes rollers, gaskets, glazing beads, and multi-point hardware for these series, with most common repairs completed without special-order delays. For full replacement, we specify by performance tier and price range based on what the opening requires, not by what is in stock.

We Also Service These Brands

Our eight verified manufacturer lines include PGT, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux, in addition to CGI. We service and install across all eight lines, which means we can compare performance specs and price points honestly rather than pushing a single brand. The right unit for a west-facing second-story opening in Sunrise is not always the same as the right unit for a ground-floor patio door in a 55-plus community with strict association guidelines.
