CGI Windows & Doors in Lantana, FL | Sightline Windows & Doors Boynton Beach

Lantana Window Replacement for CGI products typically runs $180-$450 for hardware and roller repairs, $1,200-$3,800 for sash or panel replacement, and $4,500-$12,000 for full-frame impact-rated conversions on the 1950s CBS homes common east of Federal Highway. We’re an independent contractor, not a CGI-authorized dealer, which means we work from field measurements and Palm Beach County permit requirements rather than a manufacturer script. If your CGI units are binding, leaking, or failing to seal against the track, call us at (561) 421-3844 to schedule a free measured survey. The written quote you receive is the same document we install from.

Why Lantana Residents Choose Us for CGI Service

We’ve worked on CGI products across Palm Beach County since 2012, and Lantana’s conditions have taught us things a showroom technician never learns. The salt-laden southeast breeze off Lake Worth Lagoon eats roller assemblies and pits vinyl-clad frame corners on homes east of Dixie Highway. We’ve seen it. We’ve documented it. We know which CGI Sentinel rollers seize first and which Estate series gaskets harden fastest in direct Intracoastal exposure.

Sonia Raman, our owner, grew up in Miami and learned glazing fundamentals through Miami Dade College’s building trades program before spending two decades on actual job sites. She keeps a running list of every window she’s had to pull and replace because a previous installer used the wrong sealant. That list is longer than she’d like. It’s also why she checks her crew’s caulk joints before any truck leaves a Lantana site. “Measure it right the first time and the install is already half done.” We don’t send salespeople with tablets. We send measured surveys the homeowner keeps, written prices before any work starts, and background-checked, uniformed technicians with license numbers on record under Haven Clause 3.

Our CGI sales & service draws from eight manufacturer lines, but our independence matters. We’re not pushing CGI because of a franchise agreement. We specify it when the opening calls for it.

Common CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in Lantana

• Salt-air oxidation binding rollers and sashes. The prevailing southeast wind pushes salt spray across properties east of Dixie Highway, pitting CGI Sentinel horizontal roller sill tracks and corroding corner welds. The sash no longer seats fully against the weatherstrip. We replace the track, clean the frame, and install OEM or matched-aftermarket rollers sized to the existing unit.
• Insulated-glass unit fogging from direct sun exposure. Lantana’s unshaded east and south elevations take years of morning and midday sun. The glazing seal on CGI impact units eventually fails, and the laminated glass edges delaminate. We measure the sash, order the replacement IG unit or full sash, and document the install with photos.
• Water intrusion at sill pans in original CBS rough openings. The 1950s concrete block homes between Federal Highway and the Intracoastal were never flashed for modern sliding or entry door units. A CGI replacement set into that opening without proper sill pan and head flashing will leak. We pull the unit, reframe as needed, and install correct drainage.
• Hardware failure on Intracoastal-facing doors. Multi-point locks corrode. Handles seize. The laminated glass edges on CGI impact doors facing constant salt spray degrade faster than manufacturer specs predict for inland installs. We stock replacement hardware and can source OEM CGI lock sets when available.
• Jalousie openings that cannot be repaired into compliance. Original 1950s louvered glass windows in Lantana’s 33460 bungalows are functionally banned under current Palm Beach County wind-load permitting. Film and shutters cannot make them code-compliant. A CGI impact slider or single hung in that opening requires full-frame replacement with rough-opening modification and permit.

CGI Service in Lantana: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment

Lantana’s building department processes a disproportionate number of permit applications for jalousie-to-impact-slider conversions, and that fact reshapes every CGI service call we make in the 33460 ZIP. The corridor between Federal Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway is packed with 1950s-1960s CBS bungalows whose original louvered-glass windows cannot be made code-compliant with film or shutters alone. For Impact Windows & Doors in Lantana, we are almost always looking at a full-frame, permit-driven project rather than a quick insert swap. The rough opening must be modified. The sill must be flashed to modern standards. The unit must pass county wind-load inspection.

On a 1958 CBS ranch off West Lantana Road near Dixie Highway, our crew pulled out a wall of original 1950s jalousie windows and two corroded CGI horizontal rollers that no longer sealed against the track. We reframed the rough openings, flashed the sills, and set CGI Sentinel impact horizontal roller units with new rollers and locks, then passed the county wind-load inspection. The homeowner gained a sealed, code-compliant opening instead of repaired louvers that could never meet current permitting.

This is why our Lantana service area work starts with a measured survey, not a product pitch. The survey tells us whether we’re repairing a roller or reframing a wall.

CGI Models & Products We Service in Lantana

We work on the full CGI residential line: Sentinel impact-rated vinyl single hung and horizontal roller windows; Sentinel impact sliding glass doors; Estate and Architectural series vinyl windows in both impact and non-impact configurations; and CGI vinyl entry and patio door systems. Our parts approach is straightforward. OEM CGI replacement sashes, rollers, locks, and gaskets when they’re still available. Matched aftermarket glazing and hardware sized to the existing frame when a profile has been discontinued. We don’t guess. We measure the existing unit, check availability, and tell you exactly what will be installed before any order is placed.

For Lantana’s salt-air environment, we pay particular attention to roller specifications and sill track material. A standard inland roller will not survive two years on a property east of Dixie Highway facing the Intracoastal.
