The Importance of Compliance in Coastal Areas
High-Velocity Hurricane Zones, including regions like Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, demand exceptionally high standards for impact resistance. In these areas, not only does compliance with building codes matter, but also the capability to offer products that uphold safety for homeowners.
