HURRICANE DOORS

Hurricane Doors

During hurricane season, high wind speeds and wind-borne debris are the main hazard factors for residential buildings. Hurricane-resistant elements reduce the risk of damage to building occupants. Our hurricane-resistant frames and doors are designed to withstand nature's barrage of wind and water. The functional needs of the openings are also met (e.g. fire resistance with emergency exit hardware, glazing, etc…).
