Hollywood Impact Windows & Commercial Glazing Systems
Engineered hurricane impact window and door installations for condominiums, commercial facilities, and residential properties in Hollywood. Heavy-duty aluminum framing, laminated impact glass, and Miami-Dade NOA approved multi-panel sliders directly managed by John Kraja.
Structural Glazing Engineering in Hollywood
The strength of an impact window is determined as much by its anchoring substrate as by the glass itself. Planet Construction executes precision rough-opening remediation, pressure-treated structural buck installation, and engineered structural silicone wet seals.
If decayed wood bucks or concrete lintel spalls are discovered during demolition, our licensed CGC in-house teams remediate the substrate immediately without delaying your project.
Substrate Demolition & Masonry Remediation
Old aluminum frames and corroded screws are removed cleanly. Surrounding concrete block (CMU) and precast lintels are sounded, repaired, and waterproofed prior to buck placement.
