Is the paperwork the same as Miami?

No. Palm Beach is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so it is a different product-approval set, and permitting is administered locally on top of that.

Why is the spec different up here?

Palm Beach County sits outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that governs Miami-Dade and Broward, so the approval route the counties south of it use is the wrong one.

Can my existing gate be automated?

Often yes. The frame has to carry the operator, so we check hinges, posts and weight first.

What happens in a power cut?

Every install gets a manual release, and battery or solar backup where the site suits it.

Ornamental iron gate lit from below at night, palms above it against a dark sky. — On the water — Barrier-island and inlet addresses, most of them with a town or association design guideline of their own.

Riviera Beach · Palm Beach County

Two things separate a commissioned gate from a fitted one. The detection actually stops and reverses the leaf, tested rather than assumed. And there is a manual release you can find in the dark, with battery or solar backup where the site suits it.

Salt reaches the operator long before it shows on the frame. On the addresses nearest the water the enclosure, the hardware and where the control box is mounted matter as much as the motor inside it.

Waterfront and inlet addresses frequently sit under a town or association design guideline of their own, on top of whatever the county requires.

Different county, different approval route

Because Palm Beach is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the approvals a Miami-Dade contractor quotes from memory are the wrong ones here. What Riviera Beach actually requires is set locally, and where a town or an association runs its own design guidelines those shape the finish as much as the code shapes the frame.
