Poor quality doors

We purchased two sliding doors with sliding screens to replace our 30+ year old sliders. That was a big mistake.

We never had a problem with lizards and other critters taking up residence between the glass and screen doors, but now we do. PGT says the doors were correctly installed and there is no way to fix the problem. Thousands of dollars spent, and we cannot use the doors for fear of what may come into the house. We wrote to the company president and chairman and neither individual had the courtesy to respond.

If you actually want to use your doors and not just look out them, you need to choose another company. We just wasted thousands of dollars.

Very unhappy with subpar product

We replaced all of our doors and windows with PGT Low E double pane products in 2018. Starting in 2019, they began to fog up (inside of the double pane) as seals began to fail.

It is now 2023, we have replaced 23 of the windows and doors...and continue to replace more. Clearly, this product is not something I can recommend. If I had known about the poor quality, I'd have used a more reliable product. We have had NOTHING BUT TROUBLE with PGT products in our new home.

TERRIBLE.

In my opinion, PGT needs to replace all of our doors and windows with quality, reliable products. (after all, we paid for NEW, reliable quality).

Leaking sliders

We have had PGT come out after having 3 sets of ocean front storm slider doors installed. The system they use allows water to come into the track and bubble which it cant keep up with. Weve had a 20K rug ruined and as I write this my bedroom rug is soaked. On top of that I cant tolerate the whistling and air coming thru door which is at a constant living on the ocean. We replaced 40 year old sliders only to install sliders that are less protection.

I also bought these patio doors. Who in their right mind would make doors that are designed to allow water to come into your house?

These doors are a joke! DO NOT BUY!!!

I am out over $15,000 and now need to save up money to replace these poorly designed doors. They should tell customers right up front, they will let water into your house!

We continue to wait after 6 months, for replacement sliders as the original sliders were defective when installed. They were ordered on 2/17/21, installed on 8/19/21, inspected 8/31/21.

The same day they were inspected we put in a claim as all the sliders were defective. No matter how many times we contact the Field Service Technician, who agreed they were defective, we get different estimated delivery dates and still no delivery. We were even told that 3 out of the 6 doors had been delivered, that was two months ago. PGT Windows doesn't even answer when I contacted them via message on their website, which states they will typically answer within a day.

It's been 2 weeks!

They want to sell you the windows and doors but they don't want to provide servicer. I wonder how many contracts have been completed while we wait.

One of the PGT custom window exploded without any kind of impact.

Yesterday, one of our front windows exploded causing a loud boom. Luckily no one was near the window. It exploded outward. This was the exterior annealed glass that exploded. The windows were installed in 2013 by HBS, Inc. in Vero Beach, Florida. Has this happened to any other customers?

PGT Custom Windows and Doors - What I thought was a minor repair turned into worse problem
Updated by user Mar 31, 2021

Resolved to my complete satisfaction..

Original review Mar 01, 2021
Purchased 11 PGT windows in March 2020, installed May 2020. In October 2020, contacted the distributor/installer about the seal around the exterior glass peeling away. Pictures were taken and sent to PGT. January 2021, PGT Field Service Tech came and advised he would take care of the problem. Silly me, I left for an appointment. Upon return found I now have bronze windows with 1/2 inch of white showing on the frame. Was advised by PGT Service Dept this morning, the service tech said just put the window screens in and you won't be able to see the white. Was also advised I should call the distributor.

I cannot get my cracked window replaced after eight months

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I ordered new PGT windows from All Weather Protective that were installed in May 2020. In October 2020 one of the windows cracked and I called All Weather for a replacement.

PGT attempted to replace the cracked window the first of November 2020 but the wrong window size was ordered, it was too small by several inches.

So today, after eight months, many emails and even being told by PGT the window had been replaced, All Weather attempted to replace the window and it is too BIG! I still have a cracked window since October.

I have already sent my issue to PGT Consumer Affairs several months ago and I still have the issue. My window has still not been replaced and we are in hurricane season. It is amazing that PGT does not want to help.

Fogged and moldy glass.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
As a custom builder I know what a impact window is supposed to do. These had serious glass de-laminating soon after install. they replaced several sashes.All was well. Now after 12 years some of the sashes are showing signs of mold growth on the vinyl laminated panes and a couple with air bubbles. I've sent 2 email inquiries with complete details - NO answer.
