New windows and doors improve comfort, cut energy bills and add long-term value to your home. Sightline Windows & Doors North Miami pairs proven product lines with our own installing crews for lasting performance - and a price we put in writing.
1. Choose your installer
The unit is half the job - the install is the other half. Our own background-checked crews measure, set, seal and insulate every opening, and they know the lines we quote inside and out because they install them every week.

Compare styles, materials and glass packages side by side until the fit is right for your rooms, your budget and your goals. The product-line comparison below is the place to start.
3. Prepare your home for install
Before install day we walk you through a short checklist - furniture pulled back, treatments down, a clear path to each opening - so install day is watch-it-happen, not scramble.

CGI Windows & Doors in North Miami, FL | Sightline Windows & Doors North Miami
North Miami Window Replacement for CGI windows and doors runs between $180 and $650 per opening depending on whether you need hardware replacement, gasket renewal, or full frame removal and NOA-listed replacement. The single factor that separates our CGI work here from anywhere else in South Florida is Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone - every CGI product must carry a current Notice of Acceptance matched to the exact opening, or the job fails inspection. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authorized by CGI; our authority comes from 18,000+ NOA-literate installations across Miami-Dade since 2012 and the documented photo record we leave on every visit.

Why North Miami Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We’ve worked on CGI products across thousands of Miami-Dade HVHZ projects, and we’ve learned that CGI sales & service in this county requires a different skill set than in Broward or Palm Beach. The same CGI Sentinel Series horizontal roller that passes inspection in Fort Lauderdale can be rejected by a Miami-Dade inspector if its NOA doesn’t match the specific wind-load rating for that wall elevation. We catch that before ordering, not after installation.
Sonia Raman, who leads our North Miami operations, grew up in Miami and trained in building construction technology at Miami Dade College. Her crew spent years on retrofit projects along the Biscayne corridor near the North Miami Public Library, where aging aluminum frames taught her more about oxidation patterns than any classroom. She quotes lead times and labor costs in writing before touching a shim, because a verbal estimate is just a conversation. That habit became Haven Clause 1: the measured survey and the written quote are the same document.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by license number before arrival. Every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped under the Haven Standard, not offered as a courtesy. We source genuine CGI replacement parts where available and use NOA-listed aftermarket equivalents only when OEM is discontinued or lead time would leave you exposed.
Before
AfterCommon CGI Windows & Doors Problems We Solve in North Miami
- Seized CGI door pivots and corroded multipoint hardware. Salt-laden air off Biscayne Bay oxidizes CGI impact door hinges and threshold screws far faster than inland locations. We routinely replace seized pivots on bayfront-adjacent doors in Keystone Point and along the eastern edge of North Miami, where the combination of HVHZ exposure and direct salt spray accelerates corrosion beyond what the original hardware was designed to withstand.
- Glazing gasket shrinkage and visible fogging between panes. CGI impact glazing gaskets and outer silicone seals dry out in North Miami’s year-round humidity above 70%, typically producing failure 5-7 years after installation. The interlayer separates, moisture intrudes at the sill, and the unit loses both its impact rating and its clarity. We replace the glazing assembly or recommend full unit replacement when the frame itself has fatigued.
- Failed door bottom sweeps and threshold weather-strips. HVHZ wind-driven-rain exposure plus salt air degrades CGI door seals until they no longer meet the required rating, triggering failed water tests at re-inspection. This happens harder and faster in North Miami than in inland Miami-Dade locations, and we stock the NOA-listed replacements to match.
- Flat-spotted slider rollers and pitted tracks. Older CGI aluminum slider rollers develop flat spots and the track corrodes in salt air, so panels drag and the sash no longer seals against the NOA-listed frame. This is a common finding on 1990s-era CGI installations in Biscayne Gardens, where original units are reaching end of serviceable life.
- Hidden non-compliant openings behind drywall. In North Miami’s older rental corridors, we regularly open walls to find jalousie window openings that were rough-boarded with plywood after a storm event and drywalled over, never permitted or inspected. These surface during real-estate transactions and trigger mandatory full-opening impact-window installations under current Miami-Dade HVHZ pull permits.
CGI Service in North Miami: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
North Miami sits fully inside Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every CGI replacement opening - not just the front door - must carry a current Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance. The same CGI model that passes Broward County inspection can be rejected here. This makes product-to-opening NOA matching, not brand name, the deciding factor on every North Miami CGI job.
On a 1962 CBS ranch in Biscayne Gardens, our crew pulled drywall over what turned out to be a plywood-boarded jalousie opening that had never been permitted. The homeowner’s CGI quote had to be revised because the hidden opening required a full NOA-listed impact window with a pull permit. We replaced the jalousie with a CGI Sentinel Series impact horizontal roller, flashed the rough opening to HVHZ detail, and passed Miami-Dade inspection on the first re-inspection. The same job also caught corroded CGI hinges on the adjacent entry door, which we replaced with stainless hardware before final. That’s why we check every rough opening twice before touching a shim. Measure once, document everything, explain the rest in plain English.
CGI Models & Products We Service in North Miami
We work with the full CGI residential line for Impact Windows & Doors in North Miami: Sentinel Series impact windows and doors for current HVHZ installations; Series 6000 and 7000 impact-rated horizontal rollers and single hung windows for mid-period replacements; and CGI impact entry and French door systems for full-frame upgrades. Our stock of genuine CGI replacement parts - rollers, glazing gaskets, hinges, multipoint gear, sweeps - is held locally for North Miami turnaround. When OEM parts are discontinued, we specify NOA-listed aftermarket equivalents and document the substitution in your permit packet. We will tell you honestly when a 20-year-old unit needs full replacement rather than another parts swap, because sealing and impact performance cannot be restored to HVHZ standard on a fatigued frame.

FAQs - CGI Windows & Doors in North Miami
No. Impact-rated is not the same as NOA-matched. Your CGI product must carry a current Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance that matches the specific wind-load rating, exposure category, and opening size of your wall elevation. A CGI unit that passes in Broward can fail here. We verify NOA-to-opening compatibility before ordering. Call (786) 706-0468 and we’ll check your documentation at no charge.
North Miami’s combination of 70%+ year-round humidity and salt-laden air degrades glazing gaskets and outer silicone seals faster than inland climates. The gasket shrinks, the silicone cracks, and wind-driven rain penetrates at the sill. We inspect the glazing assembly and frame condition, then recommend gasket renewal or full replacement based on whether the frame retains its NOA-listed geometry. Call (786) 706-0468 for an exact diagnosis - estimates are free.
Yes. We replace seized or oxidized CGI door pivots and multipoint hardware with stainless or marine-grade equivalents that meet NOA requirements. Salt exposure off Biscayne Bay accelerates this failure mode in Keystone Point specifically, and we stock the hardware to avoid extended lead times. The job includes a water-test verification before we sign off.
No. Jalousie windows cannot be retrofitted to meet current Miami-Dade HVHZ standards. The entire opening must be stripped to rough framing, a new NOA-listed CGI impact window installed, and the work permitted and inspected. In North Miami’s 1950s-1970s CBS stock, we often find these openings have been previously modified without permits; we document what we find and revise the written scope accordingly.
We stop work, photograph the condition, and provide a revised written quote before proceeding. The hidden opening must be brought to current HVHZ standard with a permitted, inspected installation. We do not cover unpermitted work with new finishes. This discovery is common in North Miami’s older rental corridors, and we build contingency language into every estimate for this possibility.
