Boca Raton Window Replacement provides professional impact and hurricane windows in Boca Raton, FL for residential and commercial properties across southern Palm Beach County. This page is going to cost us money, so read it carefully. Boca Raton is in Palm Beach County, which is not in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and a large number of impact window quotes written in this city are priced as though it were.
Start with what is actually required. Boca Raton is in the wind-borne debris region, so glazed openings must be protected. That part is real and it is not optional, and anyone telling you otherwise is wrong. What is not required is that the protection come from a product approved under the Miami-Dade protocols. The requirement is about protecting the opening, not about which testing regime the protection came from.
The High Velocity Hurricane Zone covers Miami-Dade and Broward counties only. Inside it, a window needs a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or a Florida Product Approval evaluated to the HVHZ protocols, with testing to TAS 201, 202 and 203. One county north, in Boca Raton, the plans examiner is checking a statewide Florida Product Approval tested to ASTM E1886 and E1996.
The large missile is often the same nine-pound two-by-four in both tests. What differs is the cyclic pressure protocol, the approval pathway, and the paperwork. A Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance is accepted here because it exceeds what we need. It is not required here, and paying the premium for it buys you nothing at the permit counter.
Then there is the option most quotes never mention. Under the statewide standard, a code-approved shutter, accordion, roll-down or removable panel is a complete alternative to putting the impact rating in the glass. An ordinary insulating window behind an approved shutter satisfies the opening protection requirement exactly as a laminated impact unit does.
That matters for insurance too. Florida wind mitigation credits turn on whether your openings are protected and whether the protection is approved, not on which approval regime the product came through. A house with approved shutters and a house with impact glass are documented the same way on the inspection form, and we will hand you the approval numbers either way so your inspector has them.
So we quote both, always, side by side. Impact glass wins on convenience, on daily noise reduction, on ultraviolet control, and on not having to do anything at all when a storm is named and half the county is queuing at the hardware store. Shutters win on price, sometimes by a very large margin, and they let you choose the glass package on energy grounds instead of structural ones.
Where impact glass is clearly right, we say so without hedging. Second-storey openings nobody wants to reach in a warning window. Owners who travel. Oceanfront elevations. What we will not do is price a Miami-Dade package to a homeowner whose county does not ask for it. If a quote leans on the phrase Miami-Dade approved, that is marketing here, not code.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — statewide Florida Product Approval listings valid outside the HVHZ, ASTM E1886 and E1996 large-missile impact testing, AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 performance class and grade, design pressures read from the county ultimate wind speed map, NFRC-labelled U-factor and solar heat gain coefficient, spectrally selective double-silver low-E coatings — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Boca Raton and nearby communities including Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Highland Beach, Ocean Ridge.
