New York's climate ranges from coastal storms and hurricanes impacting the southern regions to severe winter weather and strong winds throughout the state. The primary season for hurricane-related threats is typically from summer through fall. Our installation process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your current windows and your home's structural condition. We then take precise measurements for custom-fit impact windows designed to meet New York's specific weather demands. Installation involves the professional removal of existing windows, thorough preparation of the openings, and secure anchoring of the new impact-resistant frames. The final steps include sealing and weatherproofing to ensure maximum protection.
Impact-rated windows are tested to withstand specific wind speeds and projectile impacts. The rating indicates the window's ability to resist damage from debris during a storm. Look for products that meet or exceed Florida Building Code standards, often considered a benchmark for impact resistance in the industry.
The cost of hurricane impact windows is influenced by factors like window size, type of frame material, and the complexity of the installation.
