Hurricane-Rated Door & Frame Assemblies
Doors & Frame Assemblies
Hurricane-rated door and frame assemblies designed to help protect exterior openings from windborne debris, cyclic pressure, and severe storm conditions while supporting secure commercial facility requirements.
How Hurricane-Rated Assemblies Are Specified
Hurricane-rated door and frame assemblies are specified around windstorm requirements, impact performance, pressure
ratings, opening conditions, and applicable code standards. Door size, frame type, wall construction, anchoring, hardware, and
facility use can all influence the final assembly configuration.
1
Identify the Opening
Confirm the door size, frame type, wall construction, swing, hardware needs, and surrounding conditions.
2
Confirm Windstorm Needs
Review applicable hurricane, windborne debris, impact, cyclic pressure, and code requirements for the opening.
3
Review Facility Needs
Evaluate exterior exposure, security needs, fire rating, egress, access, and daily operational requirements.
4
Engineer the Assembly
Configure the door, frame, anchors, hardware, and adjacent construction to support the required storm-rated performance.
