What we fix and install in Hollywood

What Hollywood homes ask of a garage door

A 1969 median build year, historic districts with their own review board, and a new Accela permit platform.

  1. Median home dates from 1969 Hollywood’s median home dates from 1969. About 90% of its roughly 73,000 homes were built before 2000 and about 75% before 1980, according to the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey, so most original garage doors here were installed long before Florida’s statewide code took effect in 2002.

  2. Houses are 44% of the homes Fewer than half of Hollywood’s homes, about 44%, are detached single-family houses in the same survey, and only about 5% are attached, such as townhouses. Condominiums and apartments make up much of the rest, so garage doors are in the house neighborhoods rather than in condo buildings.

  3. Historic districts have their own review The city’s Historic Preservation Board reviews requests inside Hollywood’s historic districts, which include the Hollywood Lakes neighborhood, where the city says alleys give access to the garages. If your house is in a district, ask the city whether a new garage door needs a Certificate of Appropriateness.

  4. Permits go through Accela, online A garage door replacement in Hollywood is permitted by the City’s Building Division, part of Development Services. The city’s Accela online permitting platform is where you submit applications, track project status in real time and schedule inspections.

Hollywood is inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone

Hollywood is in Broward County, so the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone rules cover every garage door in the city, from the beach to the western neighborhoods. A replacement door has to carry an approval for that zone.

  • Every Broward city, Hollywood included, is inside the HVHZSource
  • HVHZ garage doors, glazed or solid, must pass the large-missile impact test in Florida’s TAS 201 standardSource
  • For insurance wind credits, form OIR-B1-1802 scores opening protection, and an unrated garage door can lower the resultSource

What customers say

“I can't say enough good things about Eric’s United Garage Door Service! Our garage door spring broke unexpectedly, and when I called on a Saturday, Eric personally answered the phone. He came out on Sunday to assess the problem and was able to replace the spring the very same day. Eric was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and great to work with. It's rare these days to find someone who provides this level of customer service, especially over a weekend. He explained everything clearly, completed the repair quickly, and had our garage door working perfectly again. If you're looking for honest, reliable, and prompt garage door service, I highly recommend Eric’s United Garage Door Service. Thank you for the outstanding service!”

“Outstanding service and experience! Eric was very friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. He texted prior to arrival and replaced my garage door spring in only a few minutes. Initially, we thought the cables would also need to be replaced. Upon inspection he said they were fine. This saved me from paying additional. Finding a dependable, honest professional is priceless! Highly recommend!”

Hollywood garage door questions

Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in Hollywood?

Yes. The city’s Window/Door Checklist says installing, replacing or majorly repairing a door needs a Building Permit, and it asks for an HOA or condo association approval letter if one applies. Applications go through Accela.

Does a new garage door in Hollywood have to be hurricane rated?

Yes. From the beach to the western neighborhoods, Hollywood is inside Broward’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so a replacement door needs an HVHZ approval and the large-missile impact test.

Should I worry about the original garage door on a 1960s house in Hollywood?

Possibly. The median Hollywood home dates from 1969, and about 75% were built before 1980, so most original doors predate Florida’s 2002 building code. We can often service a door that still works, but a replacement has to meet today’s HVHZ rules.

Do you work in Hollywood Lakes, Parkside, Driftwood and Hollywood Hills?

Yes. We cover the whole city, from Hollywood Beach and Hollywood Lakes to Driftwood, Boulevard Heights, Liberia and Washington Park. In a historic district, the city’s door checklist wants a plan note that the openings will not change in size, shape or location.

How far is Hollywood from your Fort Lauderdale base?

About 8 miles south, as the crow flies. We are open 24 hours, so call at any hour, day or night.
