Oakland Park, Broward County

Impact windows and doors in Oakland Park

Oakland Park traces back to the Whidby farm of 1901 and the short-lived town of Floranada, so older riverside houses are common. We fit rated impact windows and doors at $800–$1,800 each installed, and we notarize the county application, file it in the Online Permit Access Portal, and request each inspector visit.

  • The Whidby farm

    1901

    For your windows: The oldest part of town has the oldest houses, so we expect original frames and odd sizes.

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

Oakland Park impact window questions

How do I request an inspector visit in Oakland Park?

Early requests usually get a next-day visit. We place them for you.

What application does the city use?

The notarized Broward uniform permit application, submitted through the Online Permit Access Portal.

Who closes my permit?

Oakland Park's building inspector does the final, and the permit closes after inspection approval.

Where is the building office?

In the city's Sky South Building, first floor; the address is in the brief, and nearly everything is done online.

My house is on the river. Does that change the rating?

Often. Open-water walls may need a higher design pressure.

Can a condo board refuse impact windows?

Not ones that meet its specs; §718.113(5) requires approval.

Why do people call them hurricane windows?

Same product, same approvals; the nickname just stuck.

How much is a roller window?

$1,250 is typical for a roller (53 by 50 inch).

Do you put in French doors?

Yes, plus entry doors and sliders. 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?

Yes, over $5,000 under §713.135. We record it for you.

If I sell, does the labor warranty go with the house?

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

How fast is a quote?

Usually 24–48 hours once the tape measure is put away.

Can I replace a few windows now and more later?

Yes. We quote only the openings you choose.

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.

Associations, paperwork, and wind.

Condos and HOAsBoards and committees

  • §718.113(5) has Oakland Park condo boards set hurricane-protection specs; color and style may be fixed, and conforming units go through.

  • An HOA's architectural committee can't refuse conforming impact windows and doors, per §720.3035(6).

  • If your street has no association, only the city reviews the job.
