Hurricane-Rated Windows and Doors for Florida Homes

Hurricane shutters are usually the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about storm protection for your home. These large metal coverings are deployed in the days leading up to a major storm. Clunky and sometimes difficult to put up, the shutters block wind and debris from damaging your windows. Unlike their metal counterparts, impact windows look like the high-quality glass window you want on your home, but with a thicker specially designed glass and frame. A clear advantage is that these windows do not need to be put up and taken down for each storm, instead they protect your home year-round!

Impact windows are built with multiple layers of protection which are all thoroughly tested to ensure your safety. The glass window panes are coated in a unique film that holds the pane in place from both the outside and inside of your home. In the event of a storm, the film would ensure that the glass cannot shatter by holding the panes in place. Supporting these thicker glass panes is a thick vinyl frame that helps to grab onto your home to better support the window. Each impact window is carefully tested before being sold to ensure it meets air pressure, water penetration, and structural testing standards.

Impact windows are there to support your home all year round and come with many additional benefits. Due to their shatterproof design, impact windows add an additional layer of home security. Would-be home invaders will need to face down multiple layers of force-resistant glass to gain entry. Impact windows have energy efficiency as well! Thanks to their thicker glass panes, impact windows cut down on your heating and cooling bills by up to 40% a year!

Our impact windows have a unique design and features that can’t be found anywhere else! This includes the thickest gauge vinyl in the industry, steel-reinforced sashes & 100% virgin vinyl construction, super-hydrophilic self-cleaning glass, fusion-welded frames and sashes, and a Polar Shield Technology to make your impact windows energy efficient against the Florida heat!
