Miami-Dade NOA (Notice of Acceptance) is one of the most stringent building code approvals for hurricane resistance in high-velocity hurricane zones. It certifies that the window has passed rigorous testing against high-impact debris and severe wind pressures.
NFRC (National Fenestration Rating Council) certification guarantees reliable energy performance ratings. It evaluates U-factor, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), and Visible Transmittance, ensuring energy efficiency and lower cooling costs in harsh weather.
AS2047 is the Australian Standard for windows and external glazed doors in buildings. It ensures structural performance, water penetration resistance, and air infiltration control under extreme environmental conditions.
Yes, these folding windows can be tailored in terms of frame finishes, glass thickness, panel numbers, opening directions, and hardware options to suit custom architectural designs.
They typically feature laminated safety glass or double-glazed insulated impact glass with a tough Interlayer (PVB or SGP) designed to absorb high impacts without shattering into the interior space.
