The Atlantic Fields Golf House is an ancillary club structure at Discovery Land Company's Atlantic Fields private golf community in Hobe Sound, Florida. American Commercial Glass, working with general contractor Proctor Construction, installed the complete commercial glazing package — impact-rated storefront and specialty glazing systems appropriate for a golf operations facility at a luxury private club. Martin County is a Florida WBDR jurisdiction, and all exterior glazing was specified to Florida Product Approval standards under the Florida Building Code.

The Atlantic Fields Golf House serves as the primary golf operations facility for the community — a combined pro shop, bag storage, and member-facing golf operations building positioned at the course entrance. As an occupied building with a front-of-house member experience purpose, the Golf House glazing had to meet the same design quality standard as the main clubhouse while reflecting the utilitarian program of a golf operations facility.
American Commercial Glass provided the complete glazing package for the Atlantic Fields Golf House as part of the broader Atlantic Fields engagement with Proctor Construction. The scope included impact-rated storefront systems at the front elevation, glazed entry doors and sidelites, and specialty glazed openings consistent with the building's architectural character.
The Golf House scope was coordinated with the overall Atlantic Fields development schedule, with ACG managing submittal, procurement, and installation as a dedicated phase within the multi-building community buildout. Proctor Construction's project management team coordinated glazing access and sequencing within the overall construction schedule for the golf operations area of the development.
Martin County's WBDR designation means every exterior glazing system installed at the Golf House required a current Florida Product Approval — impact performance documented to ASTM E1886 and E1996 standards, at the design pressures calculated for this structure's exposure and location within the community. ACG prepared the FPA submittal documentation for the Golf House permit package as part of the multi-building Atlantic Fields engagement.
Technical highlights of the Atlantic Fields Golf House glazing scope:
The Atlantic Fields Golf House glazing installation was sequenced within Proctor Construction's overall development schedule as part of ACG's multi-building engagement at the community. ACG coordinated Golf House fabrication and installation with the other Atlantic Fields structures to avoid resource conflicts and to meet the golf operations area's opening milestone within the community's phased buildout schedule.
Golf operations facilities typically have a specific target opening date — when the course opens, the pro shop must be operational. ACG's material procurement and installation timeline for the Golf House was aligned with the course opening program, providing Proctor Construction with fabrication lead time at award so the GC could integrate it into the master schedule.
The Atlantic Fields Golf House is the golf operations facility at Discovery Land Company's Atlantic Fields private golf community in Hobe Sound, FL — serving as the pro shop, bag room, and member-facing golf operations building at the course entrance. ACG installed the commercial glazing package at this structure as part of the broader Atlantic Fields engagement.
Golf pro shop glazing typically includes impact-rated aluminum storefront at the front elevation and entry, energy-efficient insulating glass for thermal comfort in a member-facing space, and entry systems appropriate for high daily traffic volume. Florida WBDR jurisdictions require all exterior glazing to carry Florida Product Approval for impact compliance.
Proctor Construction was the general contractor for the Atlantic Fields development in Hobe Sound, FL. ACG worked directly with Proctor Construction across all four Atlantic Fields glazing scopes — the main clubhouse package, golf house, performance center, and sales center.
No. Martin County is not HVHZ. Martin County is a Florida WBDR coastal jurisdiction, requiring Florida Product Approval-documented impact glazing per ASTM E1886/E1996 standards. HVHZ designation is limited to Miami-Dade and Broward counties under the Florida Building Code.
Storefront is a system of aluminum frames and glass panels installed between floor slab and overhead structure — appropriate for single-story or partial-height facades. Curtainwall is a continuous aluminum frame system anchored to the structural frame, spanning floor to floor, for large glass areas at multi-story facades. A golf house is typically a single-story structure suited to storefront systems; the main clubhouse may use both.
Yes. American Commercial Glass managed the glazing scope across four structures at Atlantic Fields as a single coordinated engagement with Proctor Construction. Multi-building experience includes consistent submittal management, coordinated procurement, and field crew planning across independent construction phases.
