What the City of Opa-locka checks
The City of Opa-locka's windows and doors checklist calls for two sets of wind load calculations, signed and sealed by an architect or engineer. It also requires every bedroom to keep at least one egress opening at least 20 inches wide by 24 inches high. The city's Moorish Revival buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Opa-locka Thematic Resource Area, so we check whether a building is part of it before planning any change to its openings. Every unit we install carries a Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval for the county's 175 mph design wind speed.
