15 Mar Security Features of Our Windows and Doors: How Renewal by Andersen Keeps Your Home Safe
Home security is a top priority for Florida homeowners, especially with concerns about extreme weather, break-ins, and energy efficiency. At Renewal by Andersen, we understand that windows and doors play a vital role in protecting your home and loved ones. That’s why our replacement windows and patio doors come equipped with advanced security features designed to enhance safety while maintaining style and energy efficiency.
In this blog, we’ll explore the key security features of our windows and doors and how they help safeguard your home.
1. Multi-Point Locking System for Maximum Security
One of the standout features of Renewal by Andersen windows and doors is our multi-point locking system, which provides superior security compared to standard single-lock mechanisms.
- Windows: Our casement and double-hung windows come with locks that tightly secure the sash to the frame, making it difficult for intruders to force them open.
- Patio Doors: Our Hinged French Doors and Sliding Glass Doors feature multiple locking points, reducing the risk of break-ins and ensuring a tight seal.
This multi-point locking system adds an extra layer of protection, making it significantly harder for intruders to tamper with your windows or doors.
2. High-Strength Fibrex® Frames for Added Durability
Traditional window and door frames made of wood or vinyl can weaken over time, making them vulnerable to break-ins and harsh weather conditions. Renewal by Andersen windows and doors feature Fibrex® composite material, which is twice as strong as vinyl and more durable than wood.
Security Benefits of Fibrex® Material:
✅ Resistant to Warping & Cracking – Unlike traditional materials, Fibrex® won’t deteriorate over time, maintaining structural integrity.
✅ Tougher Than Vinyl – The extra strength of Fibrex® makes it harder for intruders to force entry.
✅ Weather-Resistant – Designed to withstand Florida’s heat, humidity, and storms without weakening.
3. Impact-Resistant Glass for Hurricane & Intruder Protection
In Florida, homeowners need protection not just from burglars but also from extreme weather. Renewal by Andersen offers impact-resistant glass options that provide an extra layer of security for both storms and forced entry attempts.
Key Benefits of Impact-Resistant Glass:
✔ Designed to Withstand Strong Winds & Debris – Ideal for Florida’s hurricane-prone regions.
✔ Shatter-Resistant – Even if the glass breaks, it stays in place, preventing easy access.
✔ Extra Noise Reduction – Helps block outside noise while enhancing security.
Whether you’re looking for hurricane-resistant windows or just extra security for your home, impact-resistant glass is a smart investment.
4. Reinforced Frames & Secure Installation
Even the strongest window or door is only as secure as its installation. That’s why Renewal by Andersen ensures every window and door is installed with precision and reinforced for security.
How Our Installation Enhances Security:
🔹 Custom-Fit Windows & Doors – No gaps or weak points that can be exploited.
🔹 Secure Mounting & Reinforced Frames – Helps prevent forced entry attempts.
🔹 Expert Installation by Certified Professionals – Ensuring your windows and doors are installed to maximize security and efficiency.
5. Tempered & Laminated Glass Options for Extra Protection
For homeowners seeking additional security, Renewal by Andersen offers tempered and laminated glass options that enhance protection.
Tempered Glass:
- Up to 5x stronger than regular glass.
- Breaks into small, dull pieces instead of sharp shards, reducing injury risk.
Laminated Glass:
- Features a tough plastic interlayer that holds glass together if shattered.
- Commonly used in car windshields and security windows for extra strength.
These glass options not only improve security but also provide better sound insulation and UV protection.
6. Secured, Smooth-Operating Sliding Glass Doors
Traditional sliding glass doors are often seen as a weak spot in home security. However, Renewal by Andersen’s sliding glass doors are engineered with security in mind.
Key Security Features of Our Sliding Patio Doors:
🔹 Reach-Out Locking System – Provides a secure, weather-tight seal.
🔹 Durable Glass & Frames – Resistant to impact, forced entry, and Florida’s extreme weather.
🔹 Optional Foot Bolts – Adds an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized entry.
Unlike standard patio doors, our sliding glass doors offer a tight, reinforced locking system that enhances security without compromising style.
