Impact glass is not a single product but a rating. Two units that look identical on a showroom floor can carry very different design pressures, and in Delray Beach that difference is what determines whether an opening holds through a Category 3 or fails at the corner anchors.
Insurance and wind mitigation
A wind mitigation inspection after a full opening-protection upgrade often moves the premium enough to matter. Ask for the mitigation form to be completed once the work passes, and keep the product approval paperwork with it.
What the permit process expects
Florida requires product approval documentation at permit stage, and inspectors do check anchor patterns against the approved installation instructions. A contractor who cannot produce the NOA for the specific unit is a contractor who will struggle at inspection.
