CGI Door Replacement in San Antonio: What to Know First
CGI door replacement in San Antonio typically runs $1,900 to $4,800 depending on the model line, glass package, and whether the frame needs to be rebuilt or reset. Most standalone door swaps take one full day on site; jobs that involve reframing or stucco repair run two to three days. We replace CGI doors as an independent provider, which means you get straight pricing from a shop that works on these products every week, not a sales funnel that funnels you toward whatever’s easiest to install. We write the price down before any work starts, and we back the installation for 365 days, parts and labor.
This page is for San Antonio homeowners who already own a CGI door, or are about to, and need direct answers on replacement: what fails, what it costs, what’s worth fixing, and how to avoid paying for a new door when the problem is actually in the threshold or the hinges. If you’d rather talk it through, call (903) 488-7019 and you’ll get a live person, any hour.
How CGI Products Fail – and How We Fix Them
- CGI Estate Collection doors: sagging panels and hinge side wear. The Estate Series uses a heavier gauge aluminum and thicker glass packages than most residential doors, which is great for storm protection but hard on the hinge side over time. We see San Antonio homes with Estate doors that still hold a wind rating but drag at the bottom corner because the top hinge has ovaled out. Fix: we re-hang the slab on new hinges, shim the jamb back to plumb, and replace the sweep if the wear pattern is uneven. A full door replacement is only the call when the frame itself has shifted out of square.
- CGI Classic Series: failed corner gaskets and water intrusion at the latch. The Classic line is common in San Antonio homes built between 2005 and 2015. The corner gasket material on those doors hardens in the Texas sun and shrinks, which opens a hairline gap at the top corner of the frame. Water creeps in, the threshold starts to swell, and the door eventually binds. We replace the gaskets and sealant, then check the threshold for rot before we ever quote a new door. About half the time, the door itself is salvageable.
- CGI Sentry Series: glass unit delamination at the sightline. Sentry doors with impact-rated laminated glass occasionally develop a milky haze at the glass edge, which is the interlayer separating from the glass. It’s a manufacturing issue, not an install issue. If the door is outside its warranty window, the practical fix is a replacement door slab with a fresh glass unit, because re-glazing a delaminated impact lite in field conditions usually costs more than the slab it’s going into.
- CGI Targa Series: roller track alignment and stucco cracking at the header. Targa sliding doors take a lot of abuse in San Antonio, especially on south-facing and west-facing exposures where the stucco expands and contracts all summer. When the header shifts even a quarter inch, the rollers bind, the track wears, and the door starts chattering. We reset the track, replace the roller assemblies, and if the stucco above has separated, we address the header before the door goes back in. Skipping the header work is how you end up replacing a door twice in five years.
- Sticking, binding, and latch misalignment on any CGI line. This is the one that surprises people. You don’t always need a new door when the latch stops lining up, because the culprit is often the threshold settling on a slab foundation or the strike plate loosening in the jamb. Sean Mackey has spent more than a decade telling homeowners in Alamo Heights and the Pearl District area the same thing: inspect the threshold and jamb first. We’ll gladly quote a door replacement if that’s the real fix, but we won’t sell one to mask a ten-dollar threshold problem.
Our CGI Door Replacement Process
CGI doors are not a one-size-fits-all install. Here’s how a replacement comes together with our crew.
- 1
Call and talk to a person. You explain what you’re seeing: binding, rattling, moisture at the threshold, a window in the door that’s gone hazy. We schedule a site visit. The phone’s answered 24/7, and we show up in a uniform with a background check on file.
- 2
Diagnostics before pricing. We measure the rough opening, check the jamb for square, inspect the threshold for rot or settlement, and test the existing hardware. We take photos of everything, including the parts we don’t plan to touch, so there’s a record of the condition before we start.
- 3
Parts decision: OEM or quality aftermarket. If your CGI door can be repaired with genuine CGI components, and the warranty is still active, that’s the first route. When OEM parts are discontinued or backordered, we source aftermarket hardware that matches the original load rating and finish. We explain the trade-off in writing before you approve a single part.
- 4
Written price, locked. You get a line-item price for the door, the hardware, the labor, and any frame or stucco work. The number you sign is the number you pay. No add-on at the door, no “we found something else” unless you approve it in advance, on paper.
- 5
The install. Old door out, opening inspected, new door set and shimmed, weather seals replaced, exterior flashing and sealant redone to match the San Antonio climate. We test the swing, the latch, the lock, and the sweep. We run the door through a full cycle a dozen times before we call it done.
- 6
Photos, invoice, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Before and after photos go to your phone along with a digital invoice you can pay from a link. If anything isn’t right within a year, we fix it. Parts and labor, in writing.
What CGI Door Replacement Costs in San Antonio
| Scenario | Typical Price Range | What Moves the Price |
|---|---|---|
| CGI Classic or Sentry single door slab replacement, no frame work | $1,900 – $2,600 | Glass package: clear, tinted, or impact-rated |
| CGI Estate Collection door replacement with new hardware | $2,800 – $4,200 | Hinge reinforcement, multi-point lock hardware, finish |
| CGI Targa sliding door replacement | $3,400 – $4,800 | Track replacement, header adjustment, stucco repair if needed |
| Frame rebuild or jamb replacement on any CGI door | Add $600 – $1,400 | Rot repairs, reframing, re-flashing exterior |
Those numbers assume a standard rough opening and no hidden structural surprises. When the price moves, it moves because of the glass package you choose, the condition of the frame, and whether the exterior finish needs work. You’ll see the exact number before we start, and it won’t change at the door. Call (903) 488-7019 for a free estimate on your specific CGI door.
Why San Antonio Homeowners Call Juniper Windows San Antonio for CGI Work
We work on CGI doors in San Antonio constantly, and we’ve learned where they fail, what’s worth saving, and when replacement is the honest call.

We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family, which has been installing windows and doors since 2001.

We won’t sell you a brand we don’t think fits. Every job is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, in writing, for a full year after install. Live arrival times, photo updates, a digital invoice, people who answer the phone. That’s the Relay Standard, and it’s how every CGI job runs.
FAQs
Replacing the door itself generally ends the original CGI warranty on that unit because the product is no longer in service, but that’s the nature of any door replacement. If you’re repairing rather than replacing, we match components to the original spec to avoid creating a warranty dispute. As an independent CGI service provider, we don’t process manufacturer warranty claims, but we document every repair with photos and part numbers so you have a clean paper trail if you file one yourself.
CGI hardware and replacement components are available, but some older model lines have lead times that stretch past what most San Antonio homeowners want to wait. When OEM parts are backordered, we source quality aftermarket hardware that matches the load rating and finish. We’ll quote both options and let you choose, with the trade-off spelled out in writing before you commit. Call (903) 488-7019 and we’ll check availability for your specific CGI model.
Repair usually wins when the door slab is sound, the glass is intact, and the problem is hardware, gaskets, or alignment. Binding hinges, failed corner seals, and worn roller assemblies on CGI doors are all repairable for less than the cost of a new slab. Replacement is the right call when the glass has delaminated, the frame has moved out of square past the point of shimming, or the threshold has rot that extends into the subfloor.
A standard single-door swap takes one full day on site. If the frame needs rebuilding or the exterior stucco and flashing need to be redone, plan for two to three days, with the door secured and functional at the end of day one in most cases. We give you a written timeline with your estimate, and we send photo updates as the work progresses.
Yes. CGI doors in San Antonio come in a range of finishes, from white and bronze to custom colors on the Estate and Targa lines. We match the new door’s finish and hardware to the rest of the home as closely as the manufacturer allows, and we’ll tell you upfront if a finish has been discontinued or if there’s a visible difference between old and new. You’ll know before you buy, not after we hang the door.
