Impact Window Manufacturers In Florida | EGS International
Windows are one of the most important components of a building’s structural integrity. This is especially true when building in Florida. Hurricane season poses a grave risk to residential and commercial buildings, as high winds and flying debris can cause major damage to people and buildings alike. As a builder or property owner, you need the best possible window manufacturers in Florida to provide high impact products for high rises, condos, apartment buildings, and hotels.
EGS International (Engineered Glass Systems), LLC.: Quality, Durability, Value
For over 35 years, EGS International has manufactured high-performance impact window and door systems for Florida’s demanding coastal environment. Our products serve contractors, installers, condominium and high-rise communities, commercial properties, hotels, and large residential projects throughout Florida and beyond.
When installing hurricane impact windows in your building project, you should not have to sacrifice aesthetics for durability. At EGS, our Rampart Series 5500 fixed impact windows combine clean, contemporary sightlines with the strength required for demanding Florida applications. These fixed picture windows are manufactured in Florida and engineered to provide protection while preserving the views that make many high-rise, condominium, hotel, and coastal properties unique.
Impact Windows Engineered for Florida Buildings
Florida window manufacturers must account for conditions that go far beyond everyday weather. Hurricane-force winds, windborne debris, salt air, humidity, and the requirements of coastal and high-rise construction all influence the design and performance of a window system.
EGS Rampart Series 5500 fixed windows are manufactured with features designed specifically for these demanding applications, including:
- All-aluminum construction
- Anchorless jambs with structural analysis and anchor verification calculations
- Built-in shimming system requiring fewer anchors
- Premium-grade 70% Kynar finish
- Impact-resistant glazing
- Large and small missile impact performance
- Standard and custom frame color options
- Multiple glass tint and low-e options
The system is tested to a 60″ x 120″ module and offers large missile impact performance of +/- 100 DP and small missile impact performance of +/- 130 DP. EGS fixed windows are also certified for High-Velocity Hurricane Zones and meet the demanding design standards required by Miami-Dade NOA and Florida Building Code product approvals.
Florida-Made Impact Windows for High-Rises, Condominiums and Commercial Projects
EGS has focused its engineering, design, and manufacturing expertise on Florida condominiums and high-rise buildings for decades. Our impact-resistant window and door systems have been used in high-rises, condominiums, commercial properties, storefronts, historic buildings, hotels, and resorts.
EGS products can be found in projects such as L’Hermitage, The Metropolitan on Brickell Avenue, Atlantic I, II and III at The Point in Aventura, Boca West Condominium, Courthouse Tower in Miami, and other residential and commercial properties in Florida. Our systems have also been selected for hospitality and resort projects, including the Four Seasons and projects in the Caribbean.
This experience gives EGS an understanding of the requirements involved in large-scale window projects, where product strength, consistency, aesthetics, code compliance, accurate sizing, and dependable manufacturing all matter.
Built for Coastal Conditions Without Sacrificing Design
Impact resistance is only part of what a high-performance window should provide. EGS fixed windows are designed with clean linear sightlines that allow multiple units to create long, unobstructed wall profiles. Their all-aluminum construction will not rot, split, shrink, or swell, making them particularly well suited for Florida’s humid and coastal environments.
Standard frame options include bronze, white, and clear anodized finishes, with custom colors and two-tone finishes also available. Glass choices include clear, bronze, gray, green, low-energy, and solar-control low-e options, allowing architects, contractors, developers, and property owners to balance performance requirements with the architectural character of the building.
In addition to hurricane protection, EGS high-performance windows can provide superior sound reduction, 99% UV protection, improved energy efficiency, and continuous protection without the need to install and remove traditional hurricane shutters before and after a storm.
