Home / Impact Windows & Doors / Hyde Park
Hyde Park · Impact Windows & DoorsHyde Park has some of Tampa's most beautiful older homes, and the strictest rules for replacing windows. Much of the neighborhood is a City of Tampa local historic district, so window and door changes often need design approval before a permit is issued. We help you choose impact products that meet both the guidelines and the building code.
Inside the local historic district, Tampa's Architectural Review Commission requires a Certificate of Appropriateness before a building permit for window or door changes. We prepare the product information for your application.
The Hyde Park design guidelines call for replacement windows that fill the original opening and keep the original pane pattern, and they don't allow reflective glass. We pick impact products and grid patterns with that in mind.
Historic homes still have to meet the Florida Building Code. Under the Florida Building Code, homes within one mile of the coast where the design wind speed is 130 mph or more, or anywhere it is 140 mph or more, are in the wind-borne debris region. There, new windows and doors must be impact-rated or protected by approved shutters. We confirm the design wind speed and design pressures for your address before you choose a product.
Not every Hyde Park-area home is inside the local district. We check the city's current district map for your address, so you know up front whether design review applies.
Single hung, horizontal roller, casement, and picture windows, plus custom shapes. Aluminum or vinyl frames in white, bronze, or black.
Two-, three-, and four-panel sliders, plus pocket and corner-pocket setups for big lanai and pool openings.
Hurricane-rated front doors and French doors, including converting a window opening into a door.
Every product is Florida Product Approved and hurricane-rated, including HVHZ-rated products where the code requires them.
