ACG installs commercial glazing on essential facilities, emergency operations centers, fire and rescue training buildings, and municipal construction across Florida and the Southeast. We understand the compliance documentation, bonding requirements, and public-project schedule discipline these jobs demand — and we deliver on all of them.
Essential-facility designations, wind zone requirements, and state code adoptions differ between Florida and Tennessee. ACG's team is familiar with both frameworks — and prepares submittals accordingly from bid day forward.

Florida Building Code Risk Category IV essential facility. ACG served as the glazing subcontractor to GC Pirtle Construction on this public-safety critical facility in Polk County. Glass system supplied by Aldora, an ACG manufacturer partner for commercial storefront applications requiring enhanced performance documentation.
Essential-facility designation required increased wind load calculations, enhanced anchorage documentation in submittals, and coordination with the structural engineer of record for penetration details — all completed without RFIs impacting the project schedule.
Public-safety training facility in Stuart, Florida — Martin County. ACG completed the commercial glazing scope on this fire rescue training building, including impact-rated storefront systems appropriate for a facility subject to increased wind-load requirements under the Florida Building Code.
Martin County sits within a coastal wind zone; glazing specifications called for documented Florida product approvals and ASCE 7 load-path calculations consistent with the building's occupancy category. ACG coordinated submittals with the GC to meet the project's inspection timeline.
On public-sector work, ACG operates as a Division 08 glazing subcontractor to the general contractor of record. We have completed scopes with regional GCs experienced in essential-facility and public-safety construction, including Pirtle Construction (Haines City EOC) and others active across Florida.
