Delray Beach has a split geography that changes how storm protection conversations go. East of Federal, properties along A1A and the Intracoastal face direct coastal exposure, including saltwater air that degrades unprotected materials over time. West of I-95, communities like Lago Del Rey, Delray Lakes, and Polo Club are further from the coast but still well within the track of storms that affect the whole county. Awning Stars installs hurricane screens throughout Delray Beach. We carry Atlas Armor and Progressive Screens, both of which carry Florida Building Code approval and exceed Palm Beach County’s wind and impact requirements.
What Makes Delray Beach Installations Specific
Coastal exposure east of Federal. Properties along the barrier island and Intracoastal in Delray face consistent salt air and, during storms, direct wind loading from the east. Frame and housing systems for these properties are specified with coastal-rated powder coat finishes that hold up in that environment.
Active adult and HOA communities. A large portion of Delray Beach’s housing stock sits inside HOA-governed communities, including a significant number of active adult developments. Many of these communities have existing relationships with contractors and specific approval processes for exterior modifications. We work within those processes and provide documentation packages that satisfy most HOA architectural review boards.
Diverse home types. Delray Beach has everything from two-bedroom condos near Atlantic Avenue to large single-family homes in Mizner Country Club. Screen systems are custom-fabricated to each opening, so the scope varies considerably. We quote based on your specific home.
Installation and Permitting in Delray Beach
Delray Beach has its own building department. Permits for hurricane screen installations route through the City of Delray Beach Building Division. We pull the permit, manage the inspection process, and close it out after the work passes. Call our Palm Beach line at 561.909.8068 or use the quote form for a free consultation.
