Impact Windows in Coral Gables, FL: BOA-Approved Installs
Miami-Dade approved hurricane impact windows and doors that lower energy bills and insurance premiums.
Coral Gables impact window installs have the same architectural review situation as the city's roofs. The Board of Architects reviews exterior changes including window replacement, the design guidelines specify acceptable frame profiles and grid patterns by architectural style (Mediterranean Revival, Spanish Colonial, Mission, French Colonial), and the homeowner who installs the wrong profile gets a polite letter.
We install impact windows and doors across Coral Gables: Old Cutler, Hammock Lakes, Cocoplum, Gables by the Sea, Riviera, the Granada Estates, and the rest of the city. HVHZ-rated, code-compliant, BOA-approved frame profiles, marine-grade hardware on the waterfront streets.
A Coral Gables window install done right reads as if the windows were original to the architecture.
The Coral Gables BOA process for windows
The BOA design guidelines specify acceptable window styles by architectural era: casement and arched for Mediterranean Revival, double-hung for Spanish Colonial Revival, multi-pane casement for Mission, French casement for French Colonial. Frame color, grid pattern, and muntin profile are all reviewed. We prepare the BOA submission with manufacturer cut sheets and elevations before the application.
City of Coral Gables permits
After BOA approval, we pull the impact window permit through the City of Coral Gables building department under Miami-Dade County HVHZ rules. The BOA approval letter is part of the permit submission. We schedule inspections and close the permit in your name.
Waterfront streets
Gables by the Sea, Cocoplum, and the canal-front homes in Hammock Lakes face direct saltwater exposure. We default to marine-grade frame finish and stainless install hardware on these installs.
BOA-approved frame profiles by architectural style
For Mediterranean Revival homes we install impact casement or arched casement windows with multi-pane grids and bronze or dark-finish frames. For Spanish Colonial we install impact double-hungs with multi-light upper sashes. For Mission style we install impact casement with multi-pane grids and white or bronze frames. For French Colonial we install impact French casement with multi-light grids and bronze or dark finishes.

We source from manufacturers with BOA-approved product lines: Andersen, Marvin, Pella, PGT, CGI, Window World professional, ESW, and similar. We discuss the manufacturer choice based on the architectural style, the BOA history in your neighborhood, and the budget.
