New windows and doors improve comfort, cut energy bills and add long-term value to your home. Sightline Windows & Doors Pompano Beach 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.
2. Select the right products
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.

PGT Sliding & Patio Doors: The Pompano Beach Owner’s Guide
We stock and install PGT-compatible sliding and patio door systems in Pompano Beach, with typical installed replacement costs running $1,800 to $4,200 depending on series, size, and impact rating. Most PGT hardware and roller assemblies are available same-day from our local inventory, and we carry the full PGT catalog including WinGuard, PremierVue, and ClassicVue series. Homeowners usually discover a problem when the door sticks in the track during humid mornings, the lock won’t engage after a rain, or they notice salt corrosion on the rollers after a coastal season - all signals that the hardware, not the glass, is asking for attention.
Which PGT Models This Applies To
PGT builds sliding and patio doors across three main series, and the parts are not interchangeable between them. WinGuard uses heavy-duty stainless steel rollers rated for impact-rated sash weights up to 350 pounds; PremierVue shifts to a lighter aluminum roller housing for non-impact applications; ClassicVue falls between them with a hybrid steel-aluminum assembly that PGT phased out around 2019. The model number lives on a etched label in the door jamb or on the glass corner mark - look for “WGD” (WinGuard), “PV” (PremierVue), or “CV” (ClassicVue) followed by the width and height in inches.
We stock OEM PGT rollers, tracks, locks, and keepers, and we also carry Select Hardware aftermarket equivalents where the original part is back-ordered. The aftermarket rollers match the 1-1/4 inch and 1-1/2 inch PGT axle diameters exactly, but the wheel compound differs: OEM uses a marine-grade Delrin that holds up against Pompano Beach salt air for roughly 8 to 12 years, while quality aftermarket runs 6 to 10 years in the same conditions. We document which part we install on your written scope, so you know what you’re paying for. Sightline Windows & Doors Pompano Beach is an independent service provider, not affiliated with PGT.
Before
AfterSigns Your PGT Sliding & Patio Door Is Failing
- The door sticks or jumps the track. This usually means the roller assembly has flat-spotted or the axle bearing has seized. In Pompano Beach, we see this accelerate when sand works into the track after beach-season foot traffic, grinding the roller surface uneven.
- Lock won’t engage or feels loose. The multi-point lock mechanism or the keeper plate has shifted. Settling of the frame in Florida’s sandy soil is common near the Intracoastal, and even 1/8 inch of frame movement throws off lock alignment.
- Visible corrosion on rollers or track. Salt air attacks the roller axle first, then the track surface. Once pitting starts, the door drags metal on metal, which damages the track itself and turns a roller swap into a track-and-roller job.
- Draft or water intrusion at the sill. The sill track gasket has compressed or the weep holes are blocked. PGT’s weep system depends on clear drainage; a single clogged channel backs water into the track during our summer downpours.
- Handle spins without resistance. The internal spindle or mortise lock body has stripped. This happens when owners force a misaligned lock rather than fixing the alignment first - the handle turns, but nothing catches.
Replacement Cost & What’s Included
| Component | Typical Range (Installed) |
|---|---|
| Roller assembly replacement (single panel) | $280 - $450 |
| Track replacement (standard 6 ft. opening) | $520 - $780 |
| Multi-point lock/keeper set | $340 - $560 |
| Full panel replacement (WinGuard impact) | $1,800 - $3,400 |
| Full panel replacement (PremierVue non-impact) | $1,200 - $2,200 |
| Complete door system (dual panel, installed) | $3,200 - $4,200 |
What drives the range: impact-rated glass adds 40 to 60 percent over non-impact; custom sizes outside PGT’s standard 6/0, 8/0, and 12/0 widths require longer lead times and higher freight; and frame condition matters - a corroded aluminum frame that won’t square to plumb needs remediation before the new door seats correctly. Our written quote itemizes parts, labor, and any frame work separately. The price on the page is the price on the invoice: Haven Clause 1. Every roller and lock installation carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise, and you keep the measured survey and photo record.
DIY or Call Us?
There’s a safe middle ground here. An owner can vacuum the track, clear weep holes with a pipe cleaner, and check the label for the model number - all useful, all zero risk. But the roller assembly on a PGT WinGuard panel weighs 12 to 18 pounds depending on glass thickness, and the panel must lift out of the track at a precise angle to clear the anti-lift blocks. Drop it, and you’re replacing glass, not just rollers. The multi-point lock mechanism also carries spring tension; release it wrong and the internal cams snap out of alignment.
We don’t write this to discourage anyone who knows their way around a level. We write it because we’ve been called to Pompano Beach jobs where a homeowner saved $200 on rollers and spent $1,400 on a dropped panel. Measure once, document it, then cut. If you want us to look at it first, call (754) 253-0713. The estimate is free, and we bring the parts that match your label.
FAQs
In coastal Broward County, expect 8 to 12 years from OEM marine-grade rollers and 6 to 10 years from quality aftermarket equivalents. Salt air, sand, and direct exposure to east-facing sun are the three wear factors; a covered lanai extends life, a beachfront exposure shortens it. Call (754) 253-0713 and we’ll check your rollers against spec - estimates are free.
No. Once a PGT roller bearing seizes or the wheel flat-spots, the assembly is non-serviceable. We have never seen a field repair hold alignment for more than a few months; the axle bore is shot, and the wheel won’t track true. Replacement is the only fix that lasts. Call (754) 253-0713 for an exact quote on your series.
A single-panel roller swap takes 90 minutes to 2 hours on site, assuming the frame is plumb and the track is sound. If the track needs replacement or the frame has settled, add 2 to 3 hours for remediation. We schedule by the job, not the clock - Haven Clause 2. Call (754) 253-0713 to book.
We carry the common PGT roller sizes - 1-1/4 inch and 1-1/2 inch axles for WinGuard and PremierVue - plus track sections, keepers, and handle sets. Specialty hardware for discontinued ClassicVue units orders in 24 to 48 hours from our Miami-Dade supplier. We confirm stock when you call (754) 253-0713.
