Hurricane Double hung windows built for South Florida conditions

Double hung windows need tight weatherstripping, smooth balances, and strong locks during wind-driven rain, so you don’t get whistles or water at the sill.

• Frame: Built to stay square so both sashes slide smoothly
• Glass: Laminated impact options (when required) or energy-saving glass to reduce heat
• Balances: Balance system that holds each sash where you set it, so it doesn’t drift or slam
• Locks: Meeting-rail locks that pull the sashes tight and reduce rattling
• Seals: Weatherstripping that reduces drafts and water intrusion
• Screens: Properly fitted screens for airflow without gaps and fewer bugs
  

What “Impact” Means for Double Hung Windows in South Florida

Impact double hung windows are built as a full tested system. The laminated glass, frame, upper sash, lower sash, locks, balance system, anchoring, seal details, and installation all work together to help protect the opening.

Double hung windows have two operable sashes, so both the top and bottom sections need the right fit, lock alignment, and seal planning. In South Florida, those details matter during wind pressure, heavy rain, heat, humidity, and salt air.

Impact double hung window options may include:

• Laminated impact glass
  Operable upper and lower sashes
  Reinforced frames
  Rated locks and balance system
  Weatherstripping and seal details
  Proper anchoring
  Florida Building Code guidance
  Miami-Dade approved options when required

Why that matters:

• Helps the glass stay together if debris hits it
• Helps both sashes stay seated during storm pressure
• Supports flexible ventilation from the top or bottom
• Helps reduce wind and water intrusion when installed correctly
• Gives your home a classic window look with more ventilation control

At Doors Galour, we review the opening, sash operation, glass, frame, rating needs, and installation details before ordering.

During a measurement, we confirm:

• Opening size and frame condition
• Florida Building Code requirements
• HVHZ needs by address
• Miami-Dade approved options for HVHZ areas (when required)
  

• Glass package, tint, and privacy needs
• Balance type and smooth operation
• Lock type and egress needs when required
• Lead time and installation plan
