Impact windows and doors in Hollywood

Hollywood runs from Joseph Young's 1925 lake district and downtown circles out to the beach and the postwar west side. We install HVHZ-approved impact windows and doors here for $800–$1,800 per window installed, check any historic or coastal rules first, and file the permit with the City of Hollywood in Accela.

Hollywood at a glance

Joseph Young's planned city

Hollywood homes

We know Hollywood homes

Young laid Hollywood out around a boulevard, twin lakes, and three circles, then the city spread west after the war into Hollywood Hills and Emerald Hills.

That history sets the job. Lake-district and downtown homes may sit in a historic overlay, beach-side openings can need turtle glass, and the west side brings original frames from the 1960s and 1970s.

Beach to the west side

Where your Hollywood home sits

  • Hollywood Lakes

    Historic listing

    In 1995 the city designated the Hollywood Lakes Historic Multiple Property Resource Listing, covering 632 acres of Young's original lake-side residential section.

    For your windows: If the home is in a historic district, the city's checklist says the size, shape, and location of each opening can't change, and we note that on the plan.

    City of Hollywood · Design Guidelines for Historic Properties & Districts

  • Harrison and Tyler streets

    HPOD-2

    The Lakes: Harrison and Tyler Street Historic District is a local overlay; the city's 1995 designation counted 224 buildings in it.

    For your windows: Overlay homes get the historic check before the building permit, so we confirm the opening sizes stay the same from the start.

    City of Hollywood · Design Guidelines for Historic Properties & Districts

  • Downtown and Young Circle

    National Register

    The Hollywood Boulevard Historic Business District lists 34 contributing buildings from 1921 to 1946, with the 10-acre Young Circle Park platted in 1921.

    For your windows: Older masonry walls and custom openings are common near downtown, so every unit is measured and matched to its own approval.

    National Park Service · Hollywood Boulevard Historic Business District nomination

  • Hollywood Beach

    Barrier island

    Hotels, condominiums, and homes line the beach side, where the Broadwalk runs nearly 2.5 miles along the ocean.

    For your windows: On the Coastal Construction Control Line, east-, north-, and south-facing openings near the beach need tinted glass with inside-to-outside light transmittance of 45% or less (city code §108.08(B)).

    City of Hollywood · Sea turtle ordinance, Code ch. 108 (§108.08(B), tinted glass)

  • Hollywood Hills

    Postwar homes

    The Gottlieb family's builders began putting up homes in Hollywood Hills in 1959 and kept building through the completion of Emerald Hills in the 1980s.

    For your windows: Houses from that era often still have original frames and older opening sizes, which we measure rather than assume.

    Florida Politics · Hollywood street naming for the Gottlieb homebuilding family

  • Emerald Hills

    Golf-course area

    The Club at Emerald Hills opened in 1969 on a course designed by Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge.

    For your windows: Homes along fairways and lakes can face open ground on one side, so we look at the exposure wall by wall.

Permits, four layers

Permit steps for a Hollywood home

These are the four stages the City of Hollywood paperwork runs through.

  1. 1

    Approval for every product

    The city's checklist asks for a current Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval for each window and door, with the items used circled.

    City of Hollywood · Window/Door permit checklist
  2. 2

    Association and historic checks

    An HOA or condo approval letter goes in when one applies, and historic-district homes keep each opening's size, shape, and location.

    City of Hollywood · Window/Door permit checklist
  3. 3

    Accela filing

    Since August 4, 2026, new City of Hollywood permits are filed in Accela Citizen Access, where site visits are also scheduled.

    City of Hollywood · Permits (Accela Citizen Access)
  4. 4

    City sign-off

    Hollywood's inspector looks over each installed unit in person; after inspection approval is logged, the City of Hollywood marks the permit closed.

Before you sign

Choosing an impact window company in Hollywood

Five checks before you hire. In Hollywood, also ask whether the installer knows the historic and beach-side rules.

  • State license

    Certified general contractor CGC-1533058; you can look it up on the Florida DBPR site.

  • Accela filing

    We file in Accela, schedule each inspector visit, and stay on it until the city signs off.

  • Lifetime labor, original owner

    The lifetime labor warranty covers you, the original owner. It doesn't pass to a new owner if you sell.

  • Insured and bonded

    General liability, workers' comp, and a bond. Condo boards often ask for the certificate, and we send it.

Windows and doors for Hollywood homes

Single-hungs and casements suit the older Mediterranean Revival houses, rollers fit wide openings over counters, and fixed panes take the lake and fairway views out west.

For doors, Hollywood homeowners choose French pairs, sliders to the pool or patio, fiberglass entries, and garage doors. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

My Safe Florida Home and your wind-mitigation form

If you qualify for My Safe Florida Home, the state pays $2 for every $1 you pay, up to $10,000, after the program's free wind-mitigation visit (Fla. Stat. §215.5586). How the program works.

Impact windows and doors count as opening protection, Question 9 on the state's wind-mitigation form, OIR-B1-1802. A licensed inspector fills it out after the work, and your insurer sets the discount.

Questions

Hollywood impact window questions

Who issues window permits in Hollywood?

The City of Hollywood Building Division. A window or door replacement always needs a building permit.

How are Hollywood permits filed now?

Through Accela Citizen Access. The city moved all new permits there on August 4, 2026, and site visits are scheduled in it too.

Who closes the permit?

The city does. Its Building Division inspector signs off on the finished job; our side is the filing, being there for every visit, and getting that approval on record.

My house is in Hollywood Lakes. Can I change a window size?

Not without review. In a historic district the opening's size, shape, and location stay the same unless the city's historic planners approve a change.

I live near the beach. Is there a glass rule?

On the Coastal Construction Control Line, east-, north-, and south-facing openings near the beach need tinted glass with inside-to-outside light transmittance of 45% or less, under city code §108.08(B).

Can I pick a dark tint in a historic district?

The city's historic guidelines discourage dark or reflective tint there, so we suggest clear or light options.

Are hurricane windows the same as impact windows?

Yes. In Hollywood both names mean a laminated unit with an HVHZ approval for its opening.

What does a window cost in Hollywood?

$800–$1,800 is the usual range. Expect around $1,100 for a 37 by 63 inch single-hung, while big picture and roller openings push higher.

Can you put impact doors in a Hollywood home?

Yes, including pool sliders and French pairs on older homes. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

Does my condo board have a say?

Yes. Under §718.113(5) the board sets hurricane-protection specs, and where approval is required it can't refuse windows that conform to them.

Is a notice of commencement required?

Yes, over $5,000. A pending notice holds the first site visit, so we record it right after you sign.

What's the warranty?

The lifetime labor warranty covers you, the original owner. It doesn't pass to a new owner if you sell. Product coverage on glass and hardware comes separately from the maker.

When will my written price arrive?

Most Hollywood homeowners have it within 24–48 hours of our measuring visit, listed opening by opening.

The fine print

The rules

Wind and missile rules

All of Broward is in the HVHZ, with 170 mph design wind for a Risk Category II home.

  • Up to 30 feet: the large-missile test, a 9-pound 2x4 fired at 50 feet per second.
  • Above 30 feet: the small-missile test, 2-gram steel balls at 130 feet per second, and BORA Formal Interpretation #24 asks for a sealed, site-specific design.

Historic districts, the beach, and condo and HOA rules. Tap a topic.

Historic districtsKeep the openings as they are

  • In a historic district the opening's size, shape, and location must stay the same, and the plan has to say so.

  • Any change to an opening goes to the city's historic planning review first.

  • The city's guidelines discourage dark or reflective tint on historic sites and districts.

Sources: City of Hollywood · Window/Door permit checklist · City of Hollywood · Design Guidelines for Historic Properties & Districts

Beach sideTurtle glass on the coastal line

  • On the Coastal Construction Control Line, windows and doors facing east, north, or south near the beach need tinted glass with inside-to-outside light transmittance of 45% or less (city code §108.08(B)), and the permit needs the manufacturer's turtle glass letter.

  • The rule comes from the city's sea turtle ordinance and applies to beach-side jobs only.

Sources: City of Hollywood · Sea turtle ordinance, Code ch. 108 (§108.08(B), tinted glass) · City of Hollywood · Window/Door permit checklist

Condos and HOAsBoard specs come first

  • Condos (§718.113(5)): the board adopts hurricane-protection specs, which may set color and style, and may not refuse a conforming installation where approval is required.

  • HOAs (§720.3035(6)): the board or committee may not deny impact windows and doors that meet its adopted specs, though it can hold to the existing look.

Sources: Florida Statutes §718.113(5) (condominiums) · Florida Statutes §720.3035(6) (homeowners' associations)

PaperworkNotice of commencement

  • Hollywood jobs priced above $5,000 need a recorded notice of commencement (Fla. Stat. §713.135).

  • It's a one-page form: your signature, our filing.
