Many older buildings have non-impact windows. These windows are not secure or durable when faced with many situations. When you live in a hurricane susceptible area the last thing you need are windows that will shatter. This is why impact windows are necessary. These windows are tested to withstand hurricane force winds and the kinds of things that might be carried in those winds as impact devices. They are able to withstand six key elements. They are proofed against air infiltration. They are resistant to water entry. They withstand intrusion. They are able to protect against high winds, flying debris, and the kinds of forces that a hurricane produces.

When you know you need this type of protection the most risky part of acquiring it is trusting the installation. You want to have a company that can install the product to specs and stand behind the work when the chips are down or the winds blow. You need a company that cares about how your home will look when they are finished and that you have protection that is functional and beautiful.

Unlike shutters, hurricane impact resistant windows can provide constant protection for your home or commercial property. Many times these windows include UV protection, noise reduction, savings on energy bills, and resistance to intrusions on top of the hurricane resistance. Because these windows will maintain their integrity even after an impact, they prevent the worse types of damage that a hurricane can cause. All of this is provided by beautiful open windows that maintain the views even in the worse weather.

After a hurricane one of the first improvements should be window replacement with impact resistant ones. This is true even if your property came through the hurricane intact. Although adding shutters to a building when that is an option can be cheaper initially, one should consider that the shutter will not provide noise reduction, UV protection, or resistance against forced entry all day, every day because in most cases those shutters are only used during a storm. More telling though is the fact that impact resistant glass windows provide a substantial boost to property values.

There are a couple of factors to consider when choosing a company to install these windows. You will want to get the right product for your building codes and insurance requirements. Dealing with a company that knows what is required makes this process much easier. A specialist in this field will help you locate the right products for your area and assist you in selecting the best one for your needs. You will want to get someone who understands how vital perfect installation is. Any one window installed flawed compromises the structure’s survival in the event of a storm. Select a company that knows this and stands by their work.

Select a company that has a high referral rate, one that has outstanding customer service and will be there from start to finish and beyond. Doing this will ensure that you get the best impact resistant windows you can from a company that takes pride in their work.
