What does the county require?

Broward sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so wind rating is set by code. The permit itself is local, and an HOA architectural review often runs alongside it.

Is Broward the same as Miami-Dade?

For wind load, yes — both counties are inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. For permitting, no: that is administered locally and it is not identical from city to city.

Our gate fails every few months.

Usually a residential operator doing commercial cycles. The fix is rating the hardware to the traffic.

Can you work around our hours?

Entrances get staged so the site keeps operating while the work happens.

Miramar · Broward County

A community entrance has three completely different users arriving at it, and the system has to handle all three without a queue. Resident tags, a directory for guests, and a way to let a contractor in on a Tuesday without giving them permanent access.

A shared entry is a different machine from a private driveway — duty cycle, callbox, resident directory and contractor access all wanted on the same lane.

A shared entrance belongs to everybody, which makes downtime a governance problem as much as a mechanical one.

One code, many counters

The wind-load requirement in Miramar is the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standard that governs the whole of Broward. The review that sits on top of it is local, and in a county this dense with planned communities an association's architectural approval is frequently the longer of the two.
