Impact Windows in Pembroke Park, FL

Pembroke Park is small, about 1.43 square miles of land, and impact windows here serve a mix of housing. The 2020 census counted 6,260 residents and 3,756 housing units. Mobile home communities make up a large part of the town's housing, alongside houses and apartments.

Houses and apartments

For site-built homes and apartments, impact windows replace aging units and protect the openings in one step. Broward is in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so the windows must carry an HVHZ approval. For renters, any change needs the owner's permission, and for owners in associations, the board's approval.

Mobile homes are a different case

Manufactured homes are built to a federal standard and use different window systems and wall framing. Standard impact windows for block or frame houses often do not fit them. We will tell you honestly whether we can help with your home. Hurricane Andrew in 1992 destroyed a large share of the mobile homes in its path in South Dade, a reminder of how exposed they are. In a storm, evacuation guidance from the county is the main protection.

Shutters

Where replacing windows is not practical, approved shutters and panels are an option for site-built homes. Every shutter product must be approved for HVHZ use.

Town background

Pembroke Park incorporated as Pembroke on December 10, 1957, and took its current name on June 20, 1959. It sits at about 10 feet elevation and is bordered by Hallandale Beach to the east and West Park to the west. Its motto is The Small Town that Means Big Business.

Entry doors

For site-built homes and apartments, the front door is often the next priority after windows. Impact doors with multi-point locks and laminated glass replace worn doors and close a large opening.

Noise and heat

Laminated impact glass cuts noise and blocks most ultraviolet light, which helps keep rooms cooler.

Starting the conversation

Let us know whether the home is site-built or manufactured, whether you own or rent, and roughly how many openings it has. Photos help. We'll say up front what we can and cannot do for it.

Sliding doors

Apartments and houses with a rear patio often have an old aluminum slider. An impact sliding glass door with laminated panels and reinforced interlocks closes that opening, and it must carry an HVHZ approval.

For your insurance file

Once the work passes inspection, the permit and approval documents are your proof of protected openings when a wind mitigation inspection is done.

Permits

Window and door permits here follow the Florida Building Code's HVHZ rules. Check its current requirements; we supply the approvals and drawings.
