A new impact door on a Boca Raton house usually needs only an over-the-counter permit. In Old Floresta and Pearl City, the historic board weighs in first. We install Florida Product Approval impact doors and handle both paths.
The front door is often the weakest opening in a storm. When it fails, pressure gets into the house and pushes on the roof from inside. An impact door closes that gap and seals out water and noise better than most older doors.
Boca's permit rules for doors match its window rules. Single-family door work qualifies for an over-the-counter permit with no plan exam, while the Old Floresta and Pearl City historic districts need a Certificate of Appropriateness first.
Door work on single-family homes qualifies for Boca Raton's over-the-counter permit, with an affidavit, contractor registration, and a copy of the contract. No plan exam is needed.
