Buying an Impact Rated Garage Door or a Miami Dade approved Garage Door

In August 1992, Hurricane Andrew devastated the Miami-Dade area. Following this storm, officials in Miami–Dade County revamped the building codes to protect its residents from such extreme damage in the future. The result was the most stringent set of codes for windows, garage doors and protective shutters in the country. For example, a garage door has to be able to resist a nine pound 2×4 being fired at 34 miles per hour without penetration to meet the standard.At D and D Garage Doors we are proud to offer several lines of Clopay Garage Doors that meet the stringent Miami-Dade approval code. By offering garage doors that meet these codes, we can ensure the safety and security from natural disasters that these codes are meant to enforce. Also, just because these types of doors are built to meet these strict codes doesn’t mean they aren’t pretty to look at. A lot has changed in the world of garage doors, there are many designs to choose from. You will never have to sacrifice curb appeal for superior protection.
