Davie’s inland position in Broward County creates a specific problem most homeowners don’t expect. Because Davie sits west of I-75 and away from the Atlantic coast, many residents assume Florida Building Code hurricane-impact requirements don’t apply to their property. They do. Every replacement window or door permit in Davie requires impact-rated glazing or an approved shutter system, and the town’s large stock of 1965-1990 CBS ranch homes - built with original single-pane aluminum frames and jalousie windows - represents some of the most urgent replacement need in Broward. We’ve measured hundreds of these homes. The aluminum pitting and IGU seal failure from decades of South Florida humidity usually makes repair uneconomical before we even open our price book.

Our Impact Windows & Doors Services in Davie
Impact-Resistant Windows
Every impact-resistant window we install in Davie meets or exceeds Florida Building Code requirements for the inland Broward zone. We specify frames and hardware based on what the opening requires, not what is in stock. For Davie’s 1970s-1980s CBS ranch homes, this often means replacing corroded aluminum frames with vinyl or aluminum-clad impact-rated units from ECO Window Systems or Mr-Glass, specified by U-factor and SHGC performance tier. The measured survey we leave with you documents every frame reading, sightline measurement, and product spec.
Hurricane Impact Windows
Hurricane impact windows in Davie must pass ASTM E1886 and E1996 testing for large-missile impact, even though the town sits inland. The FBC does not exempt Davie. We see this misconception constantly on estimates west of I-75 - homeowners who assumed their inland location meant standard replacement windows would pass permit. They won’t. Our Impact Windows & Doors team specifies hurricane-rated products from PGT, CGI, and CWS for Davie openings, with documentation that satisfies both permit inspection and wind mitigation insurance credits.
Single Hung Impact Windows
Single hung impact windows are the workhorse replacement for Davie’s original fixed and jalousie bedroom windows. The bottom sash operates; the top sash is fixed. This configuration maximizes impact resistance while keeping cost predictable. On a recent measured survey off Nob Hill Road, we found original single-pane jalousie windows in three bedrooms with pitted aluminum frames and visible seal failure - replacement was the only economical path. Single hung units from ViewLux or Therma-Tru spec’d to the opening’s exact rough-in dimensions.
Double Hung Impact Windows
Double hung impact windows allow both sashes to operate, which matters in Davie’s ranch homes where cross-ventilation through bedrooms and living spaces was part of the original design intent. The tilt-in feature on both sashes also simplifies cleaning - relevant for homes with large lots and limited exterior access. We specify double hung units when the homeowner wants operable area from both sash positions and the rough opening depth accommodates the impact-rated frame profile.
Horizontal Roller & Sliding Impact Windows
Horizontal roller and sliding impact windows solve the wide-opening problem common in Davie’s 1970s-1980s ranch plans. Many of these homes feature oversize sliding glass doors to screened patios, and the adjacent kitchen or family room windows were often built to matching widths. The original non-impact aluminum frames on these units fail at the sill and header first - water intrusion at the jamb is the symptom homeowners notice. We replace with impact-rated horizontal rollers from ES Windows or ECO Window Systems, specified with marine-grade hardware and stainless fasteners for Davie’s humidity load.
Wind Mitigation & HVHZ Code Compliance
Davie sits outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), which covers coastal Broward and all of Miami-Dade. This affects product selection and permit documentation but does not eliminate impact requirements. We handle the distinction on every Davie estimate: inland-spec products cost less than coastal-spec equivalents, but the fasteners, anchors, and installation details must still meet FBC Chapter 16 wind load calculations for Davie’s specific exposure category. Our measured survey includes wind load documentation that your insurance inspector can reference directly for mitigation credits.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Davie
We specify from eight manufacturer lines - PGT, CGI, CWS, ES Windows, ECO Window Systems, Mr-Glass, Therma-Tru, and ViewLux - chosen by what the Davie opening requires, not by margin. For the equestrian properties near Griffin Road and Southwest Ranches, we regularly source custom agricultural-grade hardware from Therma-Tru and Mr-Glass for barn and tack-room openings that standard residential catalogs don’t stock. Our Miami-area warehouse maintains inventory for Davie’s common frame sizes and custom-order channels for non-standard openings. Turnaround on standard Davie residential units runs 4-6 weeks from measured survey to installation; custom equestrian openings add 2-3 weeks for fabrication.
Common Impact Windows & Doors Problems We See in Davie Homes
- Corroded aluminum frames on 1965-1990 CBS ranch homes. South Florida’s sustained humidity pits and oxidizes original non-impact aluminum frames until the glazing bead no longer seats properly. We see this on nearly every Davie ranch built before 1992. Repair is uneconomical; full replacement with impact-rated vinyl or clad-aluminum units is the only code-compliant path.
- Failed IGU seals on oversize patio sliders. Davie’s ranch homes often feature 8-foot or wider sliding glass doors to screened patios. Homeowners mistake fogged glass for a cleaning problem until water intrusion appears at the jamb. The failed seal means the low-E coating and argon fill are gone; replacement with impact-rated laminated glass is required.
- Jalousie windows that cannot be retrofitted. Original louvered jalousie sashes in Davie bedrooms and utility rooms leak air around every blade and provide zero impact resistance. No manufacturer produces an impact-rated jalousie. The entire unit comes out; a single hung or fixed impact window goes in.
- Non-rated hardware on equestrian barn and stable openings. Davie’s equestrian overlay zoning creates openings standard contractors don’t encounter. Tack-room doors and stable entries often carry residential-grade hinges and anchors that won’t pass permit inspection. We fabricate custom solutions with agricultural-grade hardware and proper anchoring for these structures.

FAQs - Impact Windows & Doors in Davie
Yes. Davie’s inland location does not exempt it from Florida Building Code impact requirements for window and door replacement. Every replacement permit in Davie requires impact-rated glazing or an approved shutter system, regardless of distance from the coast. The confusion is common - we address it on nearly every estimate west of I-75. Call (754) 812-9260 and we’ll review the specific FBC section that applies to your property.
No. No manufacturer produces an impact-rated jalousie window, and the original single-pane aluminum frames on Davie ranch homes are typically too corroded from humidity to accept new glazing. We see pitted frames and failed seals on nearly every 1970s-1980s Davie home we survey. Full replacement with single hung or fixed impact-rated units is the only code-compliant and economical path. Call (754) 812-9260 to schedule a measured survey and see the frame condition documented in writing.
Properly installed impact windows qualify for wind mitigation credits that reduce premiums on most Florida homeowners policies. The key is documentation: our installation includes a photo record, product approval numbers, and the wind mitigation form your inspector needs. Davie homes with full impact opening protection typically see the largest credit under the “opening protection” category. Call (754) 812-9260 and we’ll explain which credits apply to your specific policy type.
Coastal-spec hardware uses stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized fasteners rated for salt-air exposure; inland-spec for Davie uses equivalent-strength hardware with standard corrosion-resistant coating. The price gap runs 8-15% per opening. Because Davie sits inland, inland-spec meets code and performs correctly - but we still see salt-air corrosion on hardware in Davie homes near drainage canals and low-lying areas where salt migrates inland through the water table. We specify based on your property’s specific exposure, not a generic inland default. The measured survey documents which spec we recommend and why.
Yes. Davie’s equestrian overlay zoning means we regularly encounter non-standard barn-door and stable-entry openings that standard residential catalogs don’t stock. We fabricate custom agricultural-grade solutions with impact-rated glazing and proper anchoring for these structures. On a recent job off Griffin Road, we replaced original single-pane jalousie windows in the main house and fabricated a custom tack-room door from agricultural-grade hardware - an opening standard contractors would have referred out. Call (754) 812-9260 to discuss your specific barn or stable opening.
