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.

Steel takes ornamental work and welds hard. Aluminum will not rust and suits long runs. Wrought iron is the traditional answer where the detail matters most. Sun and salt are the design brief in South Florida, so the finish is chosen with the same care as the frame.

Where the driveway meets the sidewalk there is no arc for a swing leaf to travel through. That usually points at a slide or a cantilever, and it is far better to find that out at the measure than on install day.

Older inland streets mix construction from several decades, so two openings on the same block are not necessarily the same problem.

Also inside the HVHZ

Broward falls inside the same High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as Miami-Dade, so the wind rating carries across the county line unchanged. What does not carry across is the paperwork: permitting is administered locally, and the sensible order is to ask what Lauderhill expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.
