Hurricane Impact Glass Installation Process

Hurricane impact sliding door glass consists of two sheets of tempered glass bonded with a specialized polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer. This construction withstands wind-borne debris impacts up to 150 mph, meeting Miami-Dade County's stringent hurricane protection standards.

Our installation process begins with precise measurement of existing door frames, accounting for thermal expansion in Sunrise's humid climate. We source glass from certified manufacturers like Guardian Industries and Pilkington, ensuring compliance with ASTM E1996 impact resistance standards.

Double-pane insulated glass units feature Low-E coatings and argon gas fill, reducing heat transfer by up to 50% compared to standard glass. This energy efficiency is crucial in Broward County's year-round cooling demands, potentially reducing HVAC costs by 15-25%.

Installation typically requires 2-4 hours per door, including careful removal of old glass, frame preparation, weatherproofing, and structural glazing compound application. We test door operation and seal integrity before completing the warranty documentation.

Each installation includes building permit coordination when required, ensuring your Fort Lauderdale or Pembroke Pines project meets current code requirements for wind load resistance and egress specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions About Glass Replacement

How much does sliding door glass replacement cost in Broward County? +

Standard glass replacement typically ranges from $200-400 per panel, while hurricane impact glass costs $400-800 per panel. The final cost depends on glass size, type, and installation complexity. We provide free estimates for all glass replacement projects.

Do I need hurricane impact glass for my sliding doors in Florida? +

While not required for all existing homes, hurricane impact glass is mandatory for new construction and major renovations in Broward County. Impact glass provides superior protection against hurricanes, break-ins, and noise reduction. It's highly recommended for homes near the coast.

How long does sliding door glass replacement take? +

Most standard glass replacements are completed in 2-4 hours. Custom or impact glass may require 1-2 weeks for ordering and an additional 2-3 hours for installation. We'll provide a precise timeline during your free estimate.

Can you fix foggy glass between double pane sliding doors? +

Foggy glass occurs when the seal between double panes fails, allowing moisture inside. This requires complete glass unit replacement as the insulation properties are compromised. We replace the entire insulated glass unit with a new, properly sealed one.

What types of glass do you install for sliding doors? +

We install tempered safety glass, hurricane impact glass, insulated double-pane units, and laminated glass. All glass meets Florida building codes and safety requirements. We help you choose the right glass type based on your needs and budget.

Is sliding door glass replacement covered by homeowners insurance? +

Coverage depends on the cause of damage and your policy terms. Storm damage and break-ins are often covered, while normal wear or seal failure may not be. We provide detailed receipts and documentation to help with insurance claims.

Can you replace just one panel of a sliding door? +

Yes, we can replace individual glass panels in most sliding door systems. However, if one panel has failed due to age, the other panels may fail soon after. We'll assess the condition of all panels and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

What should I do if my sliding door glass breaks? +

Carefully remove loose glass pieces while wearing gloves and shoes. Tape plastic sheeting over the opening for temporary weather protection. Avoid using the door until repairs are made. Call us for emergency glass replacement - we offer same-day service in most cases.

How do I know if my sliding door glass meets building codes? +

Florida building codes require tempered safety glass in sliding doors, and impact-resistant glass in certain areas. We ensure all glass installations meet current Broward County building codes and can provide compliance documentation if needed.

Do you offer warranties on glass replacement? +

Yes, we provide manufacturer warranties on all glass products (typically 5-10 years) and a 2-year warranty on our installation workmanship. This covers defects in materials and installation issues, giving you peace of mind with your investment.
