2026 Average Costs For Impact Glass Doors

The main differentiating factors between the Wahiawa impact glass doors and the standard glass doors are; appearance, convenience, cost and time commitment. Houses having standard glass doors require installing additional storm panels for protection against natural disasters like hurricanes. Combining the cost of shutters and regular glass doors installation is far cheaper than that of an impact-resistant door, however, if we factor in the time for installing and uninstalling the shutters each time there’s a hurricane alert, this comparison can shift substantially.

First is convenience; you won't have to rush back home or rely on neighbors to properly shutter your home in the event of a quickly approaching storm. You can still feel safe wherever you are, knowing your home is fully covered against the extreme weather and hurricanes. Second, protection against burglary; on top of shielding your from the hurricanes, the Wahiawa impact glass doors keeps burglars away. They are built with a PVB layer that’s sealed between two glasses, making any break-in attempt impossible. Third, insurance premium discounts; most insurance companies recognize the importance of the impact doors, and give up to 45% in premium discounts, which when combined with the low cooling and heating cost efficiency, makes impact glass doors the best choice than the standard glass doors with shutters. Furthermore, the laminate glass blocks the harmful ultraviolet light from entering your home and reduces external noise.

The Wahiawa impact glass doors are designed with a particular type of glass that’s shatter-resistant, durable, and secured with heavy duty frames. It’s meant to withstand high impact without breaking as the membrane holds the glass in place.
