4 Useful Tips to follow While Installing

• Equipping the exterior façade with the hurricane
  resistant doors not only ensure stronger
  structure but also beautiful appearance.
• The hurricane resistant entry doors are fixed
  with special fibres that are labelled as the
  hurricane resistant glass.
• They look similar to what regular glass appears,
  but are superior in terms of strength and impact
  resistance. Installed in houses located in stormy
  areas, coastal belts and earthquake zones, the
  hurricane doors used in the entry can face wind
  and debris blowing at a speed of over 150 miles
  per hour.
• Installing the hurricane doors can withstand
  heavy impacts caused by throwing stones and
  flying debris travelling with the hurricane.

We tell you how to ensure more productive outing
with the hurricane resistant entry door over a
long period of time.

1. Check for hinges

Hinges are the lifelines of doors. Exterior doors
should be checked for tightened hinges
occasionally. Replace the loose ones and refit
the ones that have lost their edge. Strong winds
may cause the bending of the front doors.

1. Anchor the door with the wall framing

To take the hurricane resistant entry door to the
threshold of strength, use long sized hinge
screws. Screw the door jambs through the wall
framing to ensure that the doors remain resistant
to break-ins.
This will keep the hurricane resistant doors from
splitting wide open or shaking when the
high-velocity winds come by. Use the double
barrel bolts for doors that are built in the
French styles and drill them at least one inch
into the flooring.

1. Shield exterior doors with plywood

Hurricanes may not visit the region twice in a
year. Even if they do appear, the hurricane
resistant doors can be prepared accordingly. For
the rest of the year, use the hurricane resistant
doors just like normal strength doors.
Overlapping the doors with 8 inch frame is a
fairly safe and be a cost-effective measure that
can work wonders in terms of appearance as well.

1. Use extra tempered glass panel in between

A single tempered glass may not be able to
withstand the force of wind. To caress all your
fears, use the high-impact panel in between the
outer frames. It will add additional bit of
safety margin and stand longer as well.
