Why the garage door matters in a hurricane
If a garage door fails in high winds, air rushes into the house and pushes up on the roof from the inside. That’s why building codes and insurers pay so much attention to garage doors in South Florida.
Wind-rated vs. impact-rated
- Wind-rated (wind load) doors are tested to resist the positive and negative pressure of hurricane winds. Every new door in Palm Beach County must meet the design pressure for your home.
- Impact-rated doors are also tested against flying debris. They are required in Miami-Dade and Broward and are a smart upgrade anywhere in South Florida, especially near the coast.
We check the rating your home needs, show you the Florida Product Approval number for your new door, and handle the permit.
Already have a door? Reinforce it
Many existing doors can be strengthened with a manufacturer-approved hurricane bracing kit. We also do a pre-season storm inspection before June 1: springs, cables, track anchors, rollers, weather seal and opener battery backup.
Insurance savings
Opening protection, including the garage door, is part of Florida’s wind mitigation inspection, which may lower your homeowners insurance premium. Ask your agent, and we can give you the product documentation the inspector needs.

Frequently asked questions
Does Palm Beach County require impact garage doors?
Miami-Dade and Broward are in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone with the strictest impact rules. Palm Beach County follows the Florida Building Code wind-load requirements, so any new door must be rated for your home’s design pressure. We check the exact rating for your address.
Can I make my existing garage door stronger?
Often, yes. Many doors can be fitted with a bracing kit approved by the manufacturer. We’ll check your door model and tell you what’s possible.
What should I do to my garage door before a hurricane?
Have it inspected before the season, make sure the opener battery backup works, close and lock the door, and never open it during the storm. If it has a bracing kit, install the braces once the storm is on the way.
