Metal Tech Windows and Doors

 

Many experts say that protecting window and door openings is the
single most important step you can take to protect your loved ones
and your property during a hurricane. That is precisely what all
hurricane shutter products are designed to do. During a
"category five hurricane", sustained winds reach speeds of
155 m.p.h., however gusts of wind may reach 200 m.p.h. and over.
Wind conditions this fierce can cause anything that is not
sufficiently secured to become airborne .. loose roofing materials,
trees, signs, pottery, possibly a neighboring home blown apart by
the hurricane. The impact of this flying debris can destroy a window
or a door and cause a breach in the building exterior. This allows
hurricane-force winds to enter the building. Within seconds a build-up
of internal pressure virtually blows the roof off and the windows out.
