Steps
Search the Florida Building Code product approval database (BCIS) by manufacturer, product category, or approval number for the specific door model
Confirm the approval is currently active (not expired or revoked) and matches the exact model/configuration being installed
Check the approval's stated design pressure rating against the wind pressure required for the installation site's wind zone and exposure
Verify whether the jurisdiction is inside a High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (Miami-Dade/Broward), which may require a separate Miami-Dade NOA instead of or in addition to statewide approval
Retain the approval documentation and referenced installation instructions for the permit file
Known gotchas
A statewide Florida product approval does not automatically satisfy HVHZ county requirements — those counties can require their own Notice of Acceptance
Product approvals are tied to specific configurations (size, reinforcement, glazing); installing a similar but different configuration than what was approved can invalidate compliance
