Answers for homeowners

Impact window and door FAQ

Are storm panels less expensive than impact windows?

They are often one of the more affordable hurricane protection options, though they require setup before storms.

Can panels be mixed with impact windows?

Yes. Some projects use impact products for daily-use openings and panels for secondary openings.

What should I compare before choosing hurricane storm panels?

Compare approved product documentation, opening conditions, design pressure needs, glass options, frame finish, permitting requirements, and how the product will be installed and sealed.

Do impact windows help during hurricane season in Miami and Broward?

Yes. Properly selected and installed impact windows use laminated glass and rated frames to help protect openings from windborne debris while also improving everyday security and noise control.

Are the windows and doors Miami-Dade approved?

South Florida Doors and Windows works with Miami-Dade and Florida approved, tested, and certified hurricane windows and doors. Final product selection depends on opening size, design pressure, code needs, and budget.
