Because IDEAL Door is the only manufacturer in the industry to develop a full line of wind code products and solutions for both residential and commercial applications, IDEAL Door’s line of WindCode® garage doors is the engineered solution.
IDEAL Door offers: • A full line of residential and commercial, code-compliant doors
Design professionals on staff
IDEAL Door Technical Center/R & D Department
An on-site wind chamber for testing (in compliance with ASTM E330) • WindCode product cycle testing
IBC and Metro-Dade product approvals
North Carolina and Texas compliance
If you are a consumer interested in tough, wind code-compliant garage doors, ask your IDEAL Door dealer or IDEAL Door retailing home center for assistance in selecting a door appropriate for your area.
IDEAL Door Building Products has wind load product drawings for each of its
WindCode® door
models. Included with the wind load drawing is information about the door sections,
horizontal reinforcement, door hardware (e.g. hinges), track, and pressures.
Also included is jamb attachment information about how the jambs are attached
to ensure that the wind load pressures on the door are successfully transmitted
to the buildings structure. However, how the supporting structure is
designed to resist these wind loads is the responsibility of the licensed architect
or engineer for the building, not the garage door installer or garage door
manufacturer.
