The WindStorm Collection not only provides reliable protection against the high winds of Minnesota weather, but also delivers products that feature durable craftsmanship and offer trouble-free performance. WindStorm hardware and supports can be added to most standard Overhead Door products and will give you the lasting durability you’re seeking to defend your home. If you have an older door or a door from another manufacturer, it may be possible to retro fit the track and supports to withstand higher winds.
WHY WIND LOAD DOORS?
Overhead Door has engineered our products with extra support through the use of reinforced hardware adding strength, stability and protection to provide high wind load resistance. Pressure during a tornado or high straight-line winds can cause doors to pull out of their tracks or even collapse, exposing your home to becoming vulnerable to even more damage. In recent years, Minnesota building code has been rewritten to require garage doors meet higher wind load standards
