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.

You didn't install it — will you still touch it?

Yes. We service every major operator brand, whoever put it in.

We diagnose first and tell you which is worth doing. Sometimes it is one part.

My gate is stuck shut right now.

We can get it moving and secure on the visit, then come back for the permanent fix if parts are needed.

Aerial view of a coastal residential street, its rear gardens enclosed by hedging and fencing. — The coastal strip — The barrier island and the streets immediately behind it, from the county line up to the Hillsboro Inlet.

Fort Lauderdale · Broward County

Start with what it is actually doing. A gate that hums and does not move is a different fault from one that moves and will not latch, which is different again from one that opens and immediately reverses. Each points somewhere specific.

Most coastal failures are corrosion working out of sight — a seized hinge, a bottom rail rusted through from the inside, a board that has been breathing salt air for years.

Everything within a few blocks of open water runs on the same clock: salt reaches fixings, hinges and enclosures whether or not the house faces the ocean.

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 Fort Lauderdale expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.
