This page is for homeowners in Royal Palm Beach, Loxahatchee, Wellington, and western Lake Worth who own CWS doors and want straight answers about what’s wrong, what it costs, and what it takes to fix it right. We’ve been setting and sealing doors across Palm Beach County since 2008, and Dale Kessler, our owner, grew up off Crestwood Boulevard. We know how these doors behave in this climate.

How CWS Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

CWS doors are solidly built Florida products, but every door line has its weak points. Here’s what we see most often on CWS sliders and patio doors in Royal Palm Beach, and what we do about it:

• Sticking or dragging track on CWS 700 Series sliders. The 700 Series uses a raised track design that collects sand and shell grit faster than recessed-track competitors. In Royal Palm Beach, where driveways and landscaping track fine debris into the home, owners notice the door getting heavier within two or three years. We pull the panel, clean the track channel, inspect the roller assemblies, and replace worn rollers with load-rated substitutes that match the original roller diameter so the panel sits at the right height.
• Draft and air leak around the interlock on CWS 800 Series doors. The center interlock on the 800 Series is a continuous aluminum extrusion with a vinyl weatherstrip that flattens over time, especially on west-facing doors that get the full afternoon heat. We’ve measured gaps at the interlock that lose conditioned air year-round. The fix is a replacement of that specific weatherstrip, cut to length, with the panel adjusted so the interlock seats evenly.
• Lock set failure on CWS double-panel sliders. The keyed lock cylinder and the internal latch mechanism on some CWS double sliders wear unevenly. One side of the panel latches; the other hangs up or won’t engage. Owners sometimes force the handle, which bends the internal rod. We replace the lock set with matching hardware and set the strike plates so both panels lock square without forcing.
• Clouded or failed insulated glass in CWS Dade County impact doors. CWS impact-rated doors built for the Dade County market use laminated and insulated glass units. When the edge seal on the insulated unit fails, the door fogs between the panes. That fog won’t clear on its own. We measure the glass unit, order an exact replacement from our glass suppliers, and install it so the laminate remains intact and the door keeps its impact rating.
• Roller housing screws stripped in CWS aluminum frame doors over 20 years old. On older CWS doors, the roller housing is screwed into the bottom rail with self-tapping screws. After decades of use, those screw holes wallow out and the panel drops, dragging on the track. The proper repair is not a bigger screw. We drill out the stripped hole, install a threaded insert, and set a new roller housing so the panel rides straight and the screws hold.

Our CWS Sliding Glass & Patio Doors Process

When you call us about a CWS door in Royal Palm Beach, here’s how the job goes:

1. 1
   You call (386) 251-6745. A live person answers. You describe the door problem in your own words, and we schedule a time that works.
2. 2
   We show up on time and measure. Our technician measures the door panel, the track, the frame, and the opening. Every measurement is taken twice. We check for square, for track wear, and for signs the door was never set level in the first place.
3. 3
   We give you a written line-item quote. You see exactly what parts we plan to use, what they cost, and what the labor is. No vague line that says “miscellaneous.” If the door needs new rollers and a lock, that’s what’s on the paper.
4. 4
   We decide parts together. For CWS doors we explain whether original manufacturer parts make sense or whether a quality aftermarket part will perform as well or better, and why. You get the choice, and we write down what we’re installing.
5. 5
   We do the work and test it. We install, adjust, and then run the door through its full travel a dozen times. We check the seal at the interlock, the latch engagement, and the drainage at the track. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
6. 6
   We register what’s warrantied, in writing, and we leave. You get the Done Right Promise on our workmanship and the manufacturer warranty registration where it applies. The cleanup is part of the job, not an extra.
