HURRICANE WINDOWS & DOORS
Hurricane windows, also known as impact-resistant windows, are designed to withstand strong winds and flying debris during hurricanes and severe storms. They have multiple layers of impact-resistant glass and reinforced frames to prevent shattering and provide structural strength. These windows meet specific building codes, offer energy efficiency and noise reduction, and may have UV protection. They are essential in hurricane-prone areas. 
Key Features Of Hurricane Windows & Doors
- Impact Resistance: These windows and doors are constructed with multiple layers of impact-resistant glass or polycarbonate materials. The layers are bonded together with a strong interlayer, such as PVB or EVA, which prevents the glass from shattering upon impact.
- Reinforced Frames: The frames of hurricane windows and doors are reinforced with materials like aluminum, steel or fiberglass. This reinforcement provides additional strength and stability, allowing them to withstand the high pressure differentials during a storm.
- Code Compliance: Hurricane windows and doors are engineered and tested to meet specific building codes and standards for wind resistance. Compliance with these codes ensures that they can effectively protect a building during a hurricane.
- Energy Efficiency: Many hurricanes window and doors are designed to be energy-efficient. They may feature low-E coatings and insulated frames, which help reduce heat transfer and improve energy efficiency.
- UV Protection: Some hurricane windows and doors have coatings that block harmful UV rays. This feature helps protect the interior of homes and building from sun damage and reduces fading of furniture and flooring.
We recommend always consulting with a professional for installation and advice.
