Broward County Certificate of Competency 20-WD-21968-X
Impact entry and sliding doors that open, lock and seal properly
Front doors, French doors and sliding glass doors for Broward County homes, approved for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone and installed with the permit handled.
What we do
Doors are the openings you use every day, so an impact door has to work well as a door, not only in a storm. We help you choose an approved product that fits the opening and the way you use it, then install it to its approval documents.
- Impact-rated front entry doors, single or with sidelites.
- Impact French doors and patio doors.
- Impact sliding glass doors, including multi-panel sliders onto patios and pool decks.
- Products approved for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, usually shown by a Miami-Dade NOA.
- Sill pans, flashing and sealing so the new door stays dry in heavy rain.
- Permit application, inspections and permit close-out.
Approved products, installed to the approval
All of Broward County is in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Exterior doors installed here need an approval for the HVHZ, usually a Miami-Dade NOA, and the installation (anchors, spacing, sill) has to match that approval to pass inspection.
Replacing an exterior door generally needs a permit from your city's building department. We pull it and close it out.
Impact Entry & Sliding Doors work is done under Broward County Certificate of Competency 20-WD-21968-X (windows, doors, shutters & garage doors).

Impact door questions, answered
- Does replacing a sliding glass door need a permit?
- Replacing the door unit usually does, and the new door needs an approval for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Smaller repairs like rollers or locks usually don't.
- Can an impact door still look like a regular front door?
- Yes. Impact entry doors come in many styles, finishes and glass options. The approval covers the whole assembly, so we choose from approved configurations.
- My slider drags and leaks at the sill. Repair or replace?
- Worn rollers and tracks can often be repaired. If the frame is corroded or you want impact protection, we will quote a replacement too, so you can compare.
- Do you install impact windows at the same time?
- Yes. Doing windows and doors together keeps it to one permit process and one set of inspections where your city allows it.
