Older housing, salt air from the coast and the waterways, and a city permit with online portals.

Most homes predate Florida’s 2002 code
The Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey puts the median Dania Beach home at 1977, and 82% of the city’s roughly 16,000 homes went up before 2000. Until the first statewide Florida Building Code took effect in 2002, local governments wrote their own rules, so most original garage doors here predate the state standard.

Only 22% are single-family houses
Only 22% of Dania Beach homes are single-family houses in the same survey; townhomes, condominiums and apartments are most of the rest. The houses, and their garage doors, cluster in neighborhoods such as Melaleuca Gardens, Davis Isles, Playland Isles and Dania Beach Heights.

Salt air and working waterways
The city’s redevelopment agency describes direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and Port Everglades, with working waterfronts along the Dania Cut-Off and C-10 canals. The door manufacturers’ association advises keeping doors closed where possible near a saline coast, and lubricating springs as the maker directs.

Dania Beach follows the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules that Florida applies to all of Broward County. A garage door installed here needs an approval for that zone, and the rating of the old door does not change that.

Dania Beach garage door questions
Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in Dania Beach?
Yes. The City of Dania Beach Building Division issues the permit, and its permit pages point to the City Permit Portal and to Broward County’s ePermits OneStop. Your installer normally files the application.
Does a new garage door in Dania Beach have to be hurricane rated?
Yes. Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules apply across Dania Beach, so the new door needs an HVHZ product approval and has to have passed the large-missile impact test, whatever the old one could take.
My house was built in the 1970s. Is the original garage door a problem?
Possibly. About half of Dania Beach homes were built in 1977 or earlier, so a door from that period predates the statewide code. If it still runs smoothly we can service it; if it has to be replaced, the new door is held to HVHZ rules.
Do you work in Melaleuca Gardens, Davis Isles and Playland Isles?
Yes. We cover the whole city, from College Gardens, Dania Beach Heights and Sun Garden Isles to the streets near the beach.
How far is Dania Beach from your Fort Lauderdale base?
About 6 miles south, as the crow flies. Call any hour and we’ll tell you when we can be there.
