Most damage in a hurricane comes from flying objects and wind borne debris (see Product Performance-Physical Protection). However, wind pressure is also a critical factor. Once windows and doors fail, a building is likely to suffer severe damage or complete loss. The legacy of Hurricane Andrew facilitated the adoption of new code requirements and the development of stronger and tougher shutter systems.
Exeter's STORM SHIELD Hurricane Barriers exceed the requirements of design pressure test criteria. Coastal municipalities as well as owners of commercial and residential properties cannot afford to be unprepared for the next violent storm. STORM SHIELD Hurricane Barriers comply with the latest South Florida building codes and ASCE 7-88 design loads. Whether you require glass protection for single or multiple applications, STORM SHIELD can fill your opening without sacrificing aesthetics or safety.
