Impact-Resistant Windows

Modern windows are increasingly showcasing
new-age technology that not only resist
high-velocity winds but also shattering
projectiles from destroying the glass panes. As
focus shifts from structural integrity to
functionality, the modern impact windows protect
homes and the people living inside from the
inclement weathers and hurricanes.

1. Look for the options
You can secure the rather susceptible glass
windows and doors from the forceful elements and
projectiles by using two methods
- Use shutters - Use impact-resistant windows
Depending on the size of the windows and the age
of the building, the impact windows are your
go-to solution. They are easily available and
made from environment-friendly materials that
strengthen the overall structural integrity of
the building.

2. Where to install impact windows
The hurricane impact resistant windows and doors
can be installed at places where you have an
entry point. They can also be placed as immovable
structures as skylights, and panorama windows.
Patio doors and terrace doors too can be
installed with impact windows.

4. Windows framework
Impact windows derive their strength from the
supporting framework and the materials. Each
component of the window framework renders
structural rigidity to the overall structure. The
best professional window installers work with
best materials.

• Preferred materials for impact window framework
  are
• Solid wood and composites
• Fibreglass
• Polyvinyl
• Aluminium
• Composite alloys

5. Caulking and sealing
The only way you can keep the structure flawless
and rigid even when there is no evident trace of
moisture or rain outside. Caulking is a
silicone-based adhesive that is applied to the
framework and the wall during the dry weather
conditions.
6. Finally, will it fit the budget?
Impact windows are definitely costlier than
regular traditional windows. For coastal houses
built on millions of dollars, erecting the impact
windows everywhere at entry and exit points is a
rather profitable incentive.
