Florida Product Approved Impact-Rated Commercial Aluminum Windows
Boyd Aluminum manufactures Florida Product Approved, impact-rated commercial aluminum window systems for applicable hurricane-region, coastal, institutional, government, education, healthcare, multifamily, and high-performance building projects.
Boyd impact-rated window systems are tested for commercial projects that require windborne-debris impact resistance, cyclic pressure performance, coastal-weather durability, and project-specific Florida approval documentation.
Boyd's Florida Product Approval documentation includes impact-rated aluminum window configurations for horizontal sliding, fixed, casement, single-hung, double-hung, and project-out applications. Each approval must be matched to the exact product series, configuration, glazing, design pressure, opening size, installation method, and project requirements.

Are Boyd Impact Windows Florida Product Approved?
Yes. Boyd impact-rated commercial aluminum window systems carry Florida Product Approval for applicable configurations. The approval numbers listed below should be matched to the exact window series, configuration, glazing, opening condition, installation method, and project requirements.
The applicable Florida Product Approval evaluations state that the listed impact configurations are not rated for use in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ). For Florida projects, confirm the applicable FL approval number, design pressure, impact classification, glazing makeup, installation conditions, and local approval needs during specification, bidding, or submittal review.
ASTM & Florida Product Approval Testing References
Boyd's Florida Product Approval evaluations reference ASTM E1886 and ASTM E1996 Large Missile Impact testing, Level D, Wind Zone 3, along with cyclic pressure loading for the impact-rated configurations.
The evaluations also reference AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 design-pressure testing and ASTM E1300 glazing requirements. Project teams should use the Florida Product Approval record and approval drawings for final project-specific limits, installation details, glazing requirements, and design-pressure values.
Important Florida Approval Limits
Florida Product Approval is configuration-specific. Approval numbers, design pressures, glazing details, mullion use, receptor use, anchors, substrates, and installation methods must be verified for the exact project condition.
The listed impact configurations are not rated for HVHZ in the applicable evaluations.
The evaluations state the listed impact configurations are impact resistant and do not require impact protection in windborne debris regions up to Wind Zone 3.
Units must be glazed according to ASTM E1300 and the glazing details in the applicable approval drawing.
Installation must follow the applicable manufacturer instructions and Florida approval drawing.
Design pressure, glazing, installation method, and approval limits vary by product series and configuration.
Common Applications for Florida Product Approved Impact Windows
Boyd impact-rated aluminum windows are used where commercial projects require Florida Product Approved window systems for hurricane-region, coastal, and windborne-debris conditions outside HVHZ.
Commercial buildings in applicable Florida and hurricane-prone regions.
Education facilities and university projects.
Healthcare and institutional buildings.
Government, municipal, and public-sector buildings.
Multifamily and mixed-use developments.
Commercial replacement and renovation projects.
Projects requiring Large Missile Impact, Level D, Wind Zone 3 documentation.
Impact Window Project Support & Submittal Resources
Impact-rated window selection depends on project location, wind-load criteria, building use, opening conditions, glazing makeup, design pressures, Florida Product Approval requirements, installation conditions, and local approval needs.
Boyd can support impact-window specification review, bid support, CAD detail requests, product data requests, Florida Product Approval documentation requests, and available performance-documentation requests for commercial aluminum window projects.
To support an impact-window request, provide the project location, bid deadline, drawings, elevations, window schedules, specifications, required design pressures, glazing requirements, Florida Product Approval needs, and any known installation, mullion, receptor, substrate, or opening constraints.
You can also access and request CAD details, product data, and specifications through Boyd's commercial architectural resources portal.
