Elite Series

Elite is the ES Windows line Armor Pro installs most for standard South Florida residential work. It is mid-tier aluminum impact, engineered to deliver current Miami-Dade NOAs (Florida Building Code 2023, 8th edition) across the full operation range without the architectural-grade pricing of Prestige. Casement, single hung, fixed picture, sliding window, French door, and sliding glass door all run under the Elite name, so a whole house can be specified on one certified system.

The reason Elite shows up on so many quotes is value: it tends to price below the flagship national brands for comparable HVHZ certification, which makes it the line that lets a homeowner do every opening in the hurricane zone rather than a partial job. The certification is current and the NOAs are real, so permitting stays straightforward.

What Elite does not include is the architectural catalog. There are no pivot doors, folding walls, or large bi-folds here; those live in Prestige, and a project that wants them moves up a tier for those openings while keeping Elite on the standard windows. Below Elite, the MultiMax line trades some range for an even lower price while adding small-missile certification for high-rise work. Armor Pro specs Elite as the default ES Windows residential line and shifts up or down only when a specific opening or budget calls for it.
