How it works

Three steps to a permanent permit

Send us your court drawings

Manufacturer drawings, site address, and any permit comments you already have. European drawings in metric are fine.

We run the FBC / ASCE 7 wind and structural calcs

Site-specific wind speed and exposure. Pressures on glass and mesh. Frame, glass supports, anchors, and foundation checked for the real design wind.

You get signed & sealed drawings

Calculations and site-specific installation drawings, signed and sealed by a Florida PE, ready for a permanent building permit.

The 40 mph problem

A temporary permit is not a hurricane plan.

Many padel courts in Florida were permitted as temporary structures with a condition to take them down when winds exceed roughly 40 mph. That is not a permanent permit. It also assumes someone will dismantle a 20 m glass wall while a hurricane is forming.

A permanent permit means the court is designed for the site's real design wind speed under the Florida Building Code and ASCE 7, and the calculations are signed and sealed.
