Our Services Explained
At National Glass & Construction, we install high-quality impact resistant glass made to protect your home or business from harsh hurricanes and storms.
What is Impact Resistant Glass?
Impact-resistant glass, often referred to as hurricane glass or safety glass, is designed to be more resistant to breakage than standard glass, or if it does break, to fracture in a manner that minimizes the risk of injury by its shards. It is particularly valuable in areas susceptible to violent weather, like hurricanes, but it’s also used in security, automotive, and other applications where reducing the risk of injury from broken glass is paramount.
What Are the Benefits of Installing Impact Glass?
There are several ways your home or commercial building may benefit from the installation of impact glass.
Lower Home Insurance Premiums
Houses and business that utilize impact windows and doors instead of other alternatives receive savings on insurance premiums, which is one of the biggest costs of owning a building.
Increase the Value of Your Home
Impact glass has become more commonplace, which means selling a home or building without it will lower the value in buyers’ eyes. Installing impact class in your building will raise its property value, making it more attractive to prospective buyers.
Increased Safety
A home or building with impact glass will not only benefit from increased safety during hurricane and storm seasons, but also from other activities which could potentially harm your building. For example, thieves will have a more difficult time breaking into the premises, children playing nearby will be less likely to break your windows with flying sports equipment or other toys, and you won’t need to worry about any birds flying into your windows, either!
Energy Efficiency
Impact glass can also help your building be more energy efficient – windows and doors made of impact glass will be less likely to leak hot air or humidity into your home or business.
More Stylish
Impact glass allows your home or building to forego the metal shutters which are the default form of protection against storms. This will make your windows more compact, sleek, and stylish, not to mention easier to maintain.
