As a leading window and door manufacturer in China, we have participated in the construction of many whole-house window and door projects in coastal areas, and we are deeply aware of how important it is to have windows that can withstand extreme weather conditions. Strong winds and rainstorms do not test the wind pressure resistance and sealing performance of doors and windows, and salt spray corrosion can also threaten their functions. Poor quality impact windows and doors can easily add troubles to your life!
All hurricane impact windows produced by Grandsea are strictly certified to comply with the Florida Building Code (FBC). This certification ensures that Grandsea windows and doors meet the highest standards in hurricane resistance and commercial property safety.
Why impact windows are so important
When it comes to protecting your home, impact resistant windows are an absolute must. These special windows are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions and protect your home from damage. A key factor is the choice of materials. High-quality materials such as tempered glass and high-strength aluminum alloy frames provide an extra layer of protection.
Grandsea also uses an innovative design of mushroom head lock points with U-shaped locking rods, which is safer and can effectively resist the reciprocating action of positive and negative wind pressure, ensuring the safety and stability of impact-resistant window accessories.
Best aluminum storm windows
Aluminum windows are an ideal choice for storm windows. Aluminium windows are a great alternative to use for windows that are storm-proof. They are well-known for their strength and durability to weather extremes. They’re light and require minimum maintenance. The slim frames are able to accommodate greater glass sizes, and allow the sun to shine more freely into the home. But, they’re usually more expensive in comparison to uPVC windows but offer better performance and look.
The high-strength aluminum alloy used by Grandsae has an anodized surface, which is highly corrosion-resistant and durable. The design of the multi-cavity profile of its windows combines the principles of architectural mechanics and structural mechanics. It not only has excellent toughness and impact resistance, but also can effectively support the glass and resist strong wind pressure. It is a key supporting component in the exterior storm windows.

How Windows Resist Hurricanes: Construction and Design
Quality materials such as strengthened glass and sturdy frames are necessary. They supply structural toughness and durability. For instance, triple-glazed home windows can much better insulate and hold up against greater wind speeds than single-glazed windows; laminated glass can successfully stand up to the impact of storms and protect against shattering in extreme cases, thus securing you and your family members.
In addition to the choice of materials, the design of the window is also important. Reinforced corners and multiple seals can significantly improve wind resistance. We recommend sliding windows and tilt-and-turn windows as the first choice of hurricane impact windows. They can effectively prevent the erosion of airflow and moisture, thus ensuring that the windows have superior sealing performance.
Thoughtfully designed storm impact windows can not only improve safety, but also improve the energy efficiency of the home.

Window sealing cannot be ignored
It is very important to choose the right materials and technologies to effectively block wind and airflow. Good window sealing can not only improve the energy efficiency of the house, but also significantly improve comfort.
Here are some important points to remember:
- Material selection: It is crucial to choose the right material for your window seals. Silicone and EPDM are the best choices because they are both durable and flexible.
- Installation: Proper installation is just as important as the choice of materials. Make sure the seals are tight and evenly placed to avoid wind entering through the gaps.
- Regular maintenance: Check window seals regularly for wear and damage. Replace damaged seals immediately to ensure efficiency.
By paying attention to these points, you can ensure that your hurricane resistant windows are optimally protected from wind and draughts, ultimately creating a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
Both wind-resistant and energy-efficient
If you reside in a region that is frequently hit by powerful wind impact resistant windows are essential. The windows have the strength to withstand the harshest storms and also provide substantial advantages in energy efficiency. Through the combination of strong materials with cutting-edge manufacturing techniques the Grandsea's hurricane windows and doors are able to make your home more secure as well as more efficient in energy use while also reducing energy consumption.
One of the main benefits of hurricane impact windows is their ability to improve thermal insulation. This means your home is warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, resulting in significant savings on energy costs.
Investing in high quality impact windows not only protects against extreme weather conditions, but also pays off with long-term energy savings and extended service life. So if you're looking for a solution that optimizes safety while reducing energy costs, our high-quality windows and doors are the perfect choice.

There is no definite answer to this question. Because the wind pressure resistance level of doors and windows needs to correspond to the basic wind pressure of the city, it is necessary to calculate the standard value of wind load according to different landforms, installation heights, installation position coefficients, etc. However, one thing is certain. That is, the more complete the wind pressure resistance details on the doors and windows, the safer the doors and windows are.
If you still need to purchase windows according to the wind pressure resistance level, you can contact us directly, and our door and window experts will provide professional purchase advice!
The cost of hurricane windows varies greatly depending on size, material, style, and other factors. Due to their durability, hurricane resistance, and added safety features, hurricane resistant windows are also more expensive than standard windows. It is recommended that you purchase windows directly from the window and door manufacturer to purchase high-quality impact windows at an affordable price, which is a good investment.
Proper care for impact proof windows is extremely important to ensure their longevity. We recommend regular inspection of seals and frames. Damaged or worn seals should be replaced immediately to maintain hurricane proof capability.
Another point is cleanliness. Dust and dirt can accumulate in seals and frames and impair their function. Keep the windows clean using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the material. It is recommended to oil the window fittings regularly to maintain their mobility and prevent corrosion. This means your impact glass windows remain in top condition and are optimally protected.
