Garage doors need to be reinforced in high-wind conditions, but many people are unaware of this fact. These doors are often referred to as Wind Load Rated, Storm/Hurricane Rated, or simply Wind Rated. As the homeowner, you are responsible for choosing the appropriate wind load product to meet or exceed your local building code, with the help of your builder and garage door dealer. Local wind load requirements for garage doors can vary depending on the size of the door, its location on the structure, and the local wind zone, among other factors. Homeowners are responsible for making sure their garage doors meet local building codes. Our hurricane garage doors are the best way to protect your property from the most severe weather conditions.

A garage conversion involves transforming a garage, typically designed for storing vehicles, into a functional living space. This could mean converting it into a home office, gym, additional bedroom, or even a separate dwelling unit. Proper conversion often involves adhering to local zoning and building codes and might require insulation, plumbing, electrical, and heating or cooling system updates.
