Garage Door Damaged in Powerful Windstorm in Chino?
5/7/2024 (Permalink)
Our local Chino/Chino Hills team has been restoring wind damage in Chino for many years. Garage doors are susceptible to wind damage due to their large surface area and relatively lightweight construction. When strong winds, particularly during storms, pressure garage doors, they can buckle, bend, or even be torn off their tracks. To prevent wind damage to garage doors, several measures can be taken:
Upgrade to Wind-Resistant Doors: Invest in garage doors designed to withstand high winds. These doors are typically reinforced with heavier materials and additional bracing.
Regular Maintenance: Conduct regular inspections and maintenance to ensure all components are in good condition, including tightening hardware, lubricating moving parts, and replacing worn-out components.
Install Wind Load Braces: Install wind load braces or reinforcement kits to strengthen existing garage doors and improve their resistance to wind forces.
Secure Door Openers: Ensure garage door openers are securely anchored and reinforced to prevent them from being ripped off during strong winds.
Consider Impact-Rated Doors: Impact-rated garage doors, designed to resist windborne debris, can provide additional protection against wind damage.
