Homes across Boca Raton sit inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, where the glass is the first thing tested when a system moves through. Laminated impact units keep the building envelope sealed even after the outer pane breaks — and it is the pressure change after a breach, not the broken pane itself, that causes most catastrophic storm damage.
What to check before you buy
Ask for the Florida Product Approval or Miami-Dade NOA number for the exact unit being quoted, not the product line. Confirm the design pressure rating suits your elevation, and check the quote includes the buck, fasteners and inspection — that is where cheap quotes hide their gap.
Insurance and wind mitigation
A wind mitigation inspection after a full opening-protection upgrade often moves the premium enough to matter. Ask for the mitigation form to be completed once the work passes, and keep the product approval paperwork with it.
