About Our Hurricane Windows

Our hurricane impact windows stand between your family and the outside world, holding up strong against hurricane-force winds and windblown debris. Built for durability and peace of mind, they serve as a powerful first line of defense during even the most severe storms. Our manufacturer designed these windows with several features that improve impact resistance, including:

Shatter-Resistant Laminated Glass

Our ¾-inch insulated glass is built for exceptional strength and safety, even in the harshest weather. Each pane features a clear, ultra-thin laminate layer that holds the glass together in the event of an impact. Instead of shattering into dangerous pieces, the glass remains intact, helping to protect your home. This design prevents glass shards from entering your living space and keeps your windows securely in place during severe storms. With laminated glass windows, you can feel confident knowing your home’s interior will be protected from wind, debris, and water damage.

Welded Sash and Frame

Fully welded sashes and frames make our impact windows strong and durable. You don’t have to worry about cracking or breakage at the corners of your window frames and sashes. Or anywhere else, for that matter. We warranty our windows against:

• Blistering

Hurricane Window FAQs

In the meantime, here are some of the most frequently asked questions we get from our customers.

Q: What are hurricane impact windows, and how will they protect my home?

A: Residential hurricane windows were developed in the 1990s in response to the devastating damage wreaked by Hurricane Andrew in the Miami, Florida, area. Their design incorporates the characteristics of safety glass used in automobile windshields, along with extra-strong window frames and sashes achieved through both engineering and special installation techniques.

Generally, the combination of laminated glass and fortified frames gives hurricane windows enhanced resilience to impact damage from high-pressure winds and flying debris. The glass may crack, but it won’t breach and allow wind-propelled debris to penetrate your home and threaten your family with bodily injury. Moreover, a window designed to absorb hurricane-generated impacts will block entry of wind gusts that could cause damage from sudden internal pressure changes inside your home and protect your home from high volumes of rain that can cause flooding.

Q: Are hurricane impact windows required for homes in the Pensacola area?

A: Florida building codes generally require some type of hurricane window protection for homes in coastal areas, and that would include much of the greater Pensacola area. Homeowners are encouraged to check with their local government for specific requirements. Residents can often meet the requirements by having hurricane shutters installed.

However, impact-resistant hurricane windows are considered the gold standard in window protection for good reason: They look just like standard windows but provide the necessary storm protection with no need for special deployment when dangerous weather is bearing down. Their continuous readiness is the primary benefit for homeowners, but they also provide exceptional protection against break-ins.

Q: What is the difference between hurricane impact windows and standard replacement windows?

A: Hurricane windows may look like standard replacement windows, but they’re specially fortified to protect homes from damage inflicted by storms that bring high-speed winds and unusually heavy rain. Hurricane windows are also rated according to which category of storm they’re engineered to withstand, with Category 5 hurricanes being the most powerful.

Thanks to their laminated glass and fully welded sashes and frames, the hurricane windows available from Majors Home Improvement are designed to stay intact when struck by flying debris that would easily break a standard replacement window. This characteristic also makes our hurricane windows better at keeping outside noise from getting indoors and will protect your home against break-ins.

Q: Do hurricane impact windows help improve energy efficiency and indoor comfort?

A: Yes, the impact-resistant windows available from Majors Home Improvement outperform standard replacement windows when it comes to energy efficiency. Our impact windows are not only designed with many of the same energy-saving features as modern energy-efficient windows, but their extra-tight seal helps ensure that the comfortable temperatures created by your HVAC system stay indoors no matter the season.

This means your investment in our impact windows can help you curb your energy bills and reduce the strain on your HVAC unit, all while you enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your home has the ultimate level of storm protection.

Additionally, the insulative benefits of laminated glass and ultra-airtight construction do a better job of keeping the noise of your neighbor’s lawnmower or pool party from disrupting the peace and quiet of your home than standard replacement windows.

Q: How long does hurricane impact window installation usually take?

A: The actual installation time for hurricane impact windows is not significantly different from that of standard replacement window installation, typically requiring one to three days. As with non-impact windows, the installation time can vary according to the number of windows to be replaced, complexities such as second-story installations, and the weather.

In some cases, however, the entire impact window project time may take a little longer because of the need for code inspections. Product demand and manufacturing times may also affect the time required from a customer’s initial consultation to the final completion of the window replacement project. When you partner with Majors Home Improvement, we’ll use our vast window installation experience to give you a realistic estimate of your project’s timeframe and cost, plus keep you informed every step of the way.
