In recent years, local and state governments have established more stringent building codes in response to the devastation caused by hurricanes and severe storms. These tougher buildings codes require stronger foundations, structures, and building components.
As a building component, garage doors are required to withstand certain wind velocities and pressures in accordance to specific building codes and/or government agencies requirements. Safe-Way garage doors are thoroughly tested and evaluated to establish the additional reinforcements needed to conform to or exceed these requirements for wind velocities and pressures.
