Impact windows and doors in North Lauderdale

North Lauderdale was 90% farmland when it incorporated in 1963, then filled with homes during the 1970s boom. We charge $800–$1,800 per window on average for approved impact units and assemble the city's checklist, from the notarized HOA letter to NOAs that match each label.

City of Tomorrow

Where North Lauderdale homes sit

  • Farm origins

    Before 1963

    The land was grazing pasture for the Anderson Dairy Farm and fields for the Lena Lyons Stringbean Farm.

    For your windows: Nothing here predates the 1960s, so most houses are block homes from one main building era.

    The City of Tomorrow

    Architect Morris Lapidus planned the "City of Tomorrow," including the amoeba-shaped Boulevard of Champions.

    For your windows: Curving streets mean houses face every direction, so pressures are set per wall.

    City of North Lauderdale · Where we've been
  • The 1970s boom

    Ten years of building

    After the Osias Organization bought most of the land in the late '60s, a ten-year building boom filled the neighborhoods.

    For your windows: Many homes still have original 1970s windows, a common reason for full replacement.

    City of North Lauderdale · Where we've been
  • Broadview-Pompano Park and Imperial Estates

    Annexed areas

    About 428 annexed acres brought in Broadview-Pompano Park, Imperial Estates, Village Park, and a Commercial Boulevard area.

    For your windows: Homes in the annexed areas came from other builders and eras, so we measure every opening.

    City of North Lauderdale · Comprehensive plan, future land use
  • Patron Village and Seaview-Silverado

    Plan neighborhoods

    The comprehensive plan names Patron Village, Seaview-Silverado, and Silver Lakes Village among the neighborhoods it targets for improvement.

    For your windows: Older homes in these neighborhoods are common candidates for full replacement.

Grants and insurance

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

North Lauderdale impact window questions

What's on the North Lauderdale window checklist?

A notarized application, the contract, a labeled sketch, the window packet with a wind load chart, and NOAs.

Do the NOAs have to match the units?

Yes. The checklist says the approvals must match the labels on the installed units.

Is there a fee at submittal?

The checklist lists a $106 processing fee.

Do I need my HOA's approval first?

If an HOA applies, its approval letter must be signed and notarized for the file.

Who handles the final?

A building official from Broward County's Building Code Division, under contract with the city; the pass is inspection approval.

Is my 1970s house a good candidate?

Usually. Many still have original windows, which is the most common reason to replace.

Hurricane windows or impact windows: which do I need?

They're the same product. Ask for the HVHZ approval either way.

How much for a standard bedroom window?

Roughly $1,100; that's a single-hung at 37 by 63 inch.

Do you install garage doors?

Yes, with entry, French, and sliding doors. In the HVHZ, our hinged impact doors (French and entry doors) swing out. Sliding glass doors and garage doors don't swing.

When is a notice of commencement needed?

For contracts over $5,000, per §713.135.

What does the labor warranty cover?

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

How long until I see a price?

Within 24–48 hours, itemized by opening.

Does curving street layout matter?

Yes. Houses face every direction, so pressures are set wall by wall.

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.

HOAs, the notice rule, and wind.

Condos and HOAsLetters before permits
  • §718.113(5) applies to North Lauderdale condos: the board's specs may fix color and style, and conforming units must be approved.

  • HOAs can't deny impact windows or doors that follow their specs (§720.3035(6)).

  • The city checklist itself asks for the notarized HOA letter where one applies.
