Custom Impact Doors & Windows

Doors & Windows are required to go thru rigorous testing to meet the State of Florida Impact Ratings.  During a severe weather event here in Florida, the most critical factor for increasing the chances of a building’s survival is protection of all the window and door openings to the outside.  Once the wind enters the structure, the pressure changes lead to disastrous results.  Watch this video to see how testing is performed. These tests simulates windborne debris striking a window or door during a hurricane. Within the laboratory setting, this is done by firing a 2×4 projectile at predetermined locations on the door or window and seeing if there is any penetration.

Laminated tempered glass up to 9/16″ thick will break but is build to prevent wind, rain and a foreign object penetrating into your home.
