Wind Load Certified Resources
Doors are often the largest break in a building's structural base, making them exceptionally vulnerable when severe weather strikes. Studies show that once a building's envelope is breached, it's common to see significant damage to the remainder of that building. With that in mind, staying protected from severe weather, pressure changes and impacts is no small task - that's where Wind Load-rated doors come in. By pairing the right door to your application, you can protect your building from tropical storms, hurricanes and even high speed wind damage.
