Why the Sunbelt StormSafe Impact Window Stands Out

Not all impact windows are built the same. The engineering inside the frame makes a critical difference.

The StormSafe Impact Window is engineered specifically for Florida’s toughest conditions, including HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) requirements.

What truly differentiates the StormSafe Impact Window isn’t just the glass—it’s the structural reinforcement system inside the window.

Reinforced Meeting Rail: Strength Where It Matters Most

The meeting rail is the horizontal section where the top and bottom sashes meet—and it’s one of the most vulnerable points in a single-hung window during a storm.

Advantage

• Heavy-duty aluminum reinforcement built directly into the meeting rail
• Dramatically increases structural rigidity
• Helps resist wind pressure, flexing, and blow-outs
• Plays a key role in achieving Missile D and HVHZ certifications

This reinforcement ensures the window remains stable even under extreme wind loads.

T-Lock Bottom Sash: A Smarter Weather Barrier

Another standout feature of the our StormSafe Impact Window is the T-Lock reinforcement design on the bottom sash.

Why the T-Lock Matters

• Creates a tighter mechanical interlock between sash and frame
• Improves water resistance, even in driving rain
• Reduces air infiltration and pressure penetration
• Adds an extra layer of structural and weather protection

This design helps prevent water intrusion at one of the most common failure points in traditional windows.

Built for Real-World Performance

In addition to its reinforced meeting rail and T-Lock bottom sash, the StormSafe Impact Window includes:

• Fusion-welded 3¼" frame and sash for added strength
• Multiple internal air chambers for energy efficiency
• Heavy-duty aluminum reinforcements throughout the frame
• Advanced weatherstripping in critical areas
• Lifetime warranty on vinyl frames and insulated glass
• ENERGY STAR®–qualified performance

All of this works together to deliver long-term durability, safety, and comfort—not just test-lab performance.

Do You Really Need Impact Windows?

If you live in Florida or a coastal region, impact windows aren’t just a luxury—they’re a smart investment in:

• Safety
• Peace of mind
• Lower long-term maintenance
• Increased home value

Choosing the right impact window—like the StormSafe Impact Window —means choosing engineering you can trust, not just glass that passes a test.

Protect Your Home with Confidence

Not all impact windows are built equally. The difference is in the details—like reinforced meeting rails and T-Lock bottom sash designs that strengthen the window where it matters most.
