TruePane Windows & Doors provides independent PGT impact window and door repair, replacement, and installation throughout Davie. Most PGT service calls we handle are completed in a single visit, and we give you a written line-item quote before any work begins so the number on the estimate is the number on the bill.

This page is for homeowners in Davie who already own PGT products or are considering them, and want straight answers about how these windows and doors hold up, what they cost to fix, and what a proper install looks like. If you have a PGT window that fogs, a slider that binds, or an impact door that doesn’t close square after a storm, call us at (863) 208-5172.
How PGT Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
PGT builds a solid impact product. But every window line has patterns, and after twenty-six years of working on Broward County homes, we can tell you what we see most often on PGT units in Davie specifically.
- PGT WinGuard and PremierVue insulated glass fogging between panes. This is the most common call we get in Davie. The seal on the insulating glass unit (IGU) fails after years of direct Florida sun and humidity cycling, and once that seal goes, the argon leaks out and condensation forms inside the glass. You can’t wipe it off because it’s between the panes. The fix is an IGU replacement, not a whole window replacement. We source new IGUs to PGT’s original glass spec and set them so the window holds its impact rating.
- PGT sliding glass doors that bind or drag on the track after the rainy season. Davie sits on soil that moves with moisture. When the ground swells after heavy rain, a PGT slider frame can shift enough that the door scrapes the track or refuses to lock square. In most cases the door itself is fine. We realign the frame, adjust the rollers, and reset the interlock so it closes flush and the locking pins engage cleanly. A cheap fix when caught early, a full track replacement when ignored for two seasons.
- PGT impact-hinged entry doors with a sagged panel and worn hinge screws. Impact-rated doors are heavy. Over time the hinge screws back out of the jamb, and the door sags until the sweep drags the threshold and the deadbolt misses the strike plate. We remove the panel, re-drill and set the hinges with longer fasteners into the structural jamb, and hang the door back true. This restores the weather seal and the security of the lock.
- PGT aluminum frame corrosion on the coastal side of Davie. Homes closer to the Intracoastal see salt in the air. We find PGT aluminum frames with pitting at the weep holes and along the sill track, especially on windows that don’t get hosed down regularly. We clean the weep system, treat the corrosion, and reseal the exterior flange with a marine-grade sealant rated for the Florida sun. Left alone, pitting becomes a leak path.
- PGT window locks and keeper plates that no longer pull the sash tight against the weatherstripping. After a decade of daily use, the lock mechanism wears and the sash doesn’t compress the seal the way it did when new. You’ll feel a draft in summer and see a higher cooling bill. We replace the lock and keeper with PGT-compatible components, not generic hardware, and adjust the sash tension so the window closes the way it should.
Our PGT Impact Windows & Doors Process
Here’s how a PGT service call goes when you call TruePane in Davie:
- 1
You call (863) 208-5172. A live person answers, day or night. No voicemail tree. We ask what you’re seeing and what the windows or doors are doing, or not doing.
- 2
A technician comes out and measures every opening twice. We don’t trust a spec sheet over a tape measure. The tech checks the frame, the glass, the hardware, the weatherstripping, and the way the unit sits in the rough opening.
- 3
We show you the options on paper, side by side. OEM PGT parts where they matter for warranty and fit, quality aftermarket where they’re equal or better for less money. You decide with real numbers in front of you.
- 4
We do the work and register both warranty layers before the truck leaves. The Keystone Standard means the manufacturer warranty gets registered in writing, the durations are stated, and the workmanship is covered for 90 days with no fine print and no arguing.
- 5
We test the unit the way the next storm will test it. Locks engaged, seals compressed, drainage clear, glass seated. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
- 6
We leave the work area clean and walk you through what we did. You’ll know exactly what was replaced, why, and what to expect over the next ten years.

FAQs
No, not when the work is done properly. A legitimate repair using PGT-compatible components and correct installation methods keeps your warranty intact. What voids a PGT warranty is unapproved frame modification, improper installation, or using parts not rated for the product. We document every repair and can walk you through what your warranty covers before we start.
A single IGU replacement for a PGT WinGuard or PremierVue window in Davie typically runs $220 to $480 per pane, depending on the size and glass package. You do not need a whole new window for fogged glass. Call (863) 208-5172 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.
Yes. PGT uses specific glass tints and low-E coatings that vary by product line and year. We order IGUs to the original spec, or close enough that the difference is invisible on the wall. Matching existing glass is standard practice on every PGT job we do, not an upgrade.
If the frame is structurally sound and the only problem is glass, hardware, or seals, repair is almost always the better call, both in cost and in lifespan. A new IGU in a good frame will outlast another ten years of Davie weather. If the frame has corrosion, water damage, or was never set right to begin with, replacement makes more sense. We’ll show you both options with real numbers and let you decide.
Most PGT repairs in Davie are scheduled within a few days, and most jobs are completed in a single visit. Call (863) 208-5172, and we’ll give you a straight answer on timing for your specific issue before you commit to anything.
