When people think of hurricane protection, they usually think of impact windows. But one of the most vulnerable points in any South Florida home is the Entry Door. Installing an impact-rated entry door significantly increases your home’s safety, energy efficiency, and overall value.
Here’s why upgrading to an impact door should be at the top of your home improvement list.
1. Front-Line Protection Against Hurricanes
Impact entry doors from Prestige are built to withstand:
- Presión extrema del viento
- escombros voladores
- Violent storms common in Miami-Dade and Broward
- Major pressure changes during hurricanes
These doors include:
- Reinforced cores
- Laminated impact glass (on models with glass inserts)
- Steel or fiberglass construction
- Heavy-duty hardware
- Multi-point locking systems
This creates a solid hurricane barrier where it matters most.
2. Mayor seguridad en el hogar
Impact doors offer superior protection against break-ins because:
- The laminated glass doesn’t shatter
- The door structure is reinforced
- Multi-point locks secure the door in several places
- Forced entry becomes extremely difficult
