We know Lauderhill homes

Sadkin's first neighborhoods came first, then Inverrary's club, condos, and villas in the 1970s.

Most Lauderhill window jobs start with an association: one of Inverrary's many boards or a 55+ condo near the Environ center.

Lauderhill areas and what they mean for windows

  • The first Lauderhill

    Sadkin's city

    Builder Herbert Sadkin is credited as the founder; the city was incorporated in 1959 on former farmland.

    For your windows: The earliest houses keep original openings in uneven sizes, so each one is measured.

    City of Lauderhill · Our history

  • Inverrary

    1,000 acres

    The Inverrary Association represents more than 30 condominium and homeowner associations within the 1,000-acre neighborhood.

    For your windows: Your own association reviews first; we bring the product sheets its specs ask for.

  • The golf course land

    About 350 acres

    Three Inverrary golf courses, about 350 acres in all, closed and were studied by a ULI panel for future use.

    For your windows: Homes that backed onto fairways can face open ground, which may raise pressure on that side.

  • Inverrary Country Club

    Gleason Classic

    From 1972 the Inverrary Country Club hosted the Jackie Gleason Inverrary Classic, which stayed through 1980.

    For your windows: Club-era condos and villas usually carry board specs for frame color and glass.

  • Lauderhill Mall area

    Opened 1966

    Next to the old dairy farm, Lauderhill Mall opened in 1966 as the first enclosed, air-conditioned mall in the southeastern United States.

    For your windows: Homes around the State Road 7 corridor are among the city's older housing, so openings are measured one by one.

    City of Lauderhill · Our history

  • Environ area

    55+ communities

    The Environ Cultural Center serves seven nearby associations, five of them 55-plus communities.

    For your windows: Condo buildings here need board approval before filing; we schedule around residents' daily routines.

Windows and doors for Lauderhill homes

Condo and villa units typically get single-hungs and rollers; houses that faced the old fairways often add fixed panes and sliders.

Doors include French pairs, sliders, 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

Lauderhill impact window questions

How do window permits work in Lauderhill?

The city's Building Division at 3300 Inverrary Blvd. reviews and issues them for registered contractors, and status is tracked in the city's Online Permitting System.

Who does the final approval?

Lauderhill's building inspectors. After inspection approval is logged, the city closes the permit.

I'm in Inverrary. How many boards are involved?

Usually your own condo or HOA; the Inverrary Association represents more than 30 of them. We find the right one.

What if my home backs onto one of the closed golf courses?

Open ground behind a house can raise the pressure on that wall, so we rate it separately.

My condo is a mid-rise. Does height matter?

Above 30 feet, yes: those windows use the small-missile rating, plus a sealed design under BORA FI #24.

Can my condo association say no?

Only to units that don't match its specs. §718.113(5) requires approval of conforming installations.

And an HOA?

§720.3035(6) keeps an HOA from denying impact windows and doors that meet its adopted specs.

Are hurricane windows different from impact windows?

No. Lauderhill owners hear both names for one HVHZ-approved product.

What does a window run?

Most Lauderhill openings land in the $800–$1,800 range. Villa windows tend to sit at the lower end.

Do you put in impact doors here?

Yes, including patio sliders for villas. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

Is a notice of commencement required in Lauderhill?

On jobs above $5,000, under §713.135. We prepare it.

What's the labor warranty?

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

How quickly will I have pricing?

Generally 24–48 hours from the free measure.

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.

Condos and HOAsMany boards, one neighborhood

  • §718.113(5) lets a condominium board decide color and style through written specs; once an owner's windows match them, approval can't be withheld.

  • §720.3035(6), HOAs: a board or committee can't turn down impact windows or doors that conform to its specs.

  • In Inverrary, each of the 30-plus associations has its own documents; we read yours.

PaperworkNotice of commencement

  • Over $5,000, §713.135 calls for a recorded notice of commencement.

  • We prepare and record it after you sign.

Mid-rise condosGlass above 30 feet

  • Windows more than 30 feet up are rated with the small-missile test instead of the large-missile 2x4.

  • BORA Formal Interpretation #24 also asks for a sealed, site-specific design for them.
