Six months of the Florida calendar carry an asterisk. Projects that respect it glide; projects that ignore it store doors in flooded garages.
Ordering around the season
Phase deliveries so finished fronts arrive after the building is sealed and conditioned — never stockpiled in shells during peak season. Our production holds completed orders on request; the warehouse beats the garage.
Storm-week protocol
Named storm inbound: uninstalled pieces move to interior conditioned rooms, off floors, films on, cartons sealed. Generators keep AC — humidity spikes after landfall do more finish damage than the wind ever will.
The schedule buffer
Build a floating week into autumn install calendars and communicate it in contracts; clients respect a plan that names the season. Post-storm demand surges also argue for early ordering — the queue after a storm is real.
