Exclusively Engineered, Locally Made.

At CDM, we don’t just meet Florida’s toughest building codes — we exceed them. Our proprietary, NOA-certified structural glass systems are designed, engineered, and fabricated entirely in-house, right here in Dade County.

While others outsource, we innovate — offering hurricane-resistant, architecturally seamless glass systems available exclusively through CDM. Come by and see for yourself: how we work, how we build, and how excellence is made.

Systems Built To Create, Engineered To Perform

Proprietary Design

The CDM Impact System is a result of years of R&D and hands-on experience in the field. We leveraged our deep industry knowledge to design a state-of-the-art aluminum window wall system (Series AC-0113) that can span wide openings and reach floor-to-ceiling heights, creating expansive views and sleek building facades. Its proprietary profiles and reinforced construction provide exceptional strength while maintaining slim, elegant sightlines. This means architects can dream big and incorporate more glass, knowing the system will perform under the toughest conditions.

Certified & Proven

Our Impact System has undergone rigorous testing both in-house at the CDM Glass Lab and at certified external laboratories to meet and exceed industry standards. It has earned Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA) certification, verifying its ability to withstand high-velocity hurricane impacts and extreme wind pressures. This certification is a mark of trust and credibility – a guarantee that the system complies with the strictest building codes for hurricane-prone regions. In real terms, the CDM Impact System offers superior water intrusion resistance, structural load capacity, and impact protection, all verified by testing and official approvals.

Performance & Benefits

By choosing the CDM Impact System, developers and owners gain a competitive advantage. The system’s advanced engineering allows for:

  • Larger Openings & Flexibility: It supports expansive glass panels and custom configurations that standard off-the-shelf products cannot, enabling bold architectural designs.

  • Enhanced Safety: Built for Large Missile Impact (LMI) resistance, it protects buildings and occupants from hurricane-force debris and break-ins, providing peace of mind.

  • Energy Efficiency: Our system can accommodate high-performance insulated glass and specialty coatings, improving thermal performance and efficiency for large glass installations.

  • Longevity: Constructed with premium aluminum alloys and corrosion-resistant hardware, the CDM Impact System is designed to endure South Florida’s harsh sun, salt, and storm conditions for decades with minimal maintenance.
