THE
FINEST RETROFIT GARAGE DOOR
HURRICANE PROTECTION AVAILABLE
Do
You Know That …
The
garage door is potentially the largest and weakest opening of your
home to a hurricane? Do you have a hurricane protected garage door?
According to the Florida Alliance for Safe Homes about 80 percent
of residential hurricane wind damage starts with wind entry through
garage doors?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has identified the
loss of the garage door as one of four major factors in homes damaged
and destroyed in Hurricane Andrew? Hurricane protected garage doors
would have reduced home damage.
As the American Red Cross warns, if your garage door fails, the
full fury of the hurricane will enter your house and in all probability
blow off your roof and destroy your home?
Our
garage door hurricane brace is an extremely effective, Florida Building
Code approved (FL2364), highly affordable solution to hurricane
protect garage doors in the event of a major hurricane. The product
is a vertical bracing system made from high quality aircraft-grade
aluminum that attaches to the inside of the garage door. Our garage
door hurricane brace both strengthens the door and provides support
and anchors for the door in addition to the garage door tracks.
Our garage door hurricane brace is patented and its performance
capabilities have been proven through independent laboratory tests.
Our garage door hurricane brace was a participant in FEMA's Project
Impact. In addition, the University of Florida selected our vertical
bracing system for inclusion and exhibition in its Windstorm Training
Center "hurricane homes" in Ft. Pierce and St. Augustine,
Florida.
It is very easy and inexpensive to hurricane protect garage doors!
Our garage door hurricane brace is available in a kit that most
homeowners can install themselves. A single car steel garage door
requires only one brace to withstand Category 5 hurricane strength
winds while larger steel garage doors may require up to three braces.
The
product is suitable for almost all existing residential garage doors
in use today and, regardless of the type of garage door, greatly
increases its ability to withstand high winds. Our garage door vertical
brace is lightweight, requires no maintenance, can be put in place
in just a few minutes when needed, and can be inconspicuously stored
when not in use.

Our garage door vertical brace can help protects against even Category
5 storms, the strongest classification of hurricanes, which are
so rated because they have sustained wind speeds of 155 mph and
above.
