Florida Building Code impact-rated windows and doors for commercial buildings. HVHZ Miami-Dade and Broward NOA-approved. Designed for Category 5 wind loads and large-missile impact. Installed by one accountable subcontractor.
ACG delivers the full impact-rated scope for commercial and multifamily projects across Florida. Every system we install is engineered, submitted, and inspected against the governing Florida Building Code including HVHZ requirements in Miami-Dade and Broward.
Multifamily rebuilds, coastal condominiums, hospitality towers, healthcare facilities, and municipal buildings across every HVHZ and non-HVHZ county in Florida.
Every impact opening ACG installs carries active Florida Product Approval. Miami-Dade and Broward NOAs are documented on submittal and available for owner records at closeout.
ACG only installs manufacturers on our partners list. For this scope, that means:
Where ACG coordinates with other trades during an impact-rated install. Knowing the scope seams ahead of time eliminates the surprises that burn schedule on HVHZ projects.
Complete PGT impact package. Oversized sliding glass doors on every Gulf-facing residence. Fort Myers Beach.
Impact-rated glazing package for a county-level emergency-services training structure.
HVHZ impact glazing for a county emergency operations center. NOA-documented closeout.
HVHZ (High-Velocity Hurricane Zone) applies in Miami-Dade and Broward counties under the Florida Building Code. HVHZ requires impact-rated systems with active Miami-Dade NOA approvals. ACG is experienced in HVHZ submittal and installation protocols and carries manufacturer NOAs on every HVHZ project.
DP (Design Pressure) rating specifies the structural and water-resistance capacity of a window or door system at a given building elevation. Higher floors and coastal exposures require higher DP ratings. ACG engineers DP-appropriate system selection from shop-drawing phase forward.
"Impact" means the system has passed large-missile impact testing (ASTM E1886/E1996). "Hurricane-rated" is a more general marketing term. For code compliance in Florida — especially HVHZ — the spec should always say "impact-rated" and reference the NOA or Florida Product Approval.
Yes. Florida Product Approval applies statewide. We install impact glazing in Lee, Collier, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Hillsborough, Pinellas, and every county between.
Standard impact storefront runs 6–10 weeks from approved shop drawings. Large-missile tested window wall 8–12 weeks. Custom impact sliders 10–14 weeks. ACG confirms firm lead times with a bid submission.
Send drawings. ACG returns a scoped proposal with manufacturer system recommendations and NOA documentation for qualifying GCs, owners, and architects.
