Garage door wind damage.
The most effective strategy for preventing wind damage to your home is to install a wind resistant garage door.
Garage doors are one of the most vulnerable parts of the home during high winds.
Hurricanes cause damage through the force of the wind direct object impacts and rain.
This process loosens hinges wears down bolts and creates stress fractures from side to side.
Windows and doors are often blown out by gusts of wind and wind pressure can weaken roofs and walls causing significant structural damage.
