The PS Florida Team brings hands-on experience and a dedicated approach to every project, delivering systems backed by the rigorous testing of Florida Product Approval. PS provides the proactive problem-solving needed to protect your building from the most severe storms.
Impact Resistance
Our impact-resistant systems are designed to withstand wind-borne debris, ensuring performance during the most demanding storms. By utilizing advanced interlayers and meticulous quality control, we deliver glazing solutions that maintain their integrity upon impact to protect both the building envelope and the people inside.
Structural Wind Resistance
Our systems are engineered to handle the specific positive and negative wind pressures of your building’s location and height. We focus on precision framing that limits deflection under load, protecting envelope integrity.
Water and Air Infiltration Control
Pressure equalization and advanced sealing technology prevent hurricane-force rain and wind from penetrating the building interior. A hurricane-resistant curtain wall must go beyond standard weatherproofing – our systems are specifically designed to manage extreme water intrusion by utilizing internal drainage paths that keep water out even under maximum pressure. High-performance gaskets and sealants ensure these components stay watertight, keeping your facility operational during sustained wind and rain.
Anchoring and Framing
Precision-engineered mullions and perimeter framing are anchored to withstand the combined forces of hurricane winds and debris impact. Redundant attachment points and high-strength fasteners ensure system integrity, providing a proactive defense against connection failure when the building envelope is under maximum stress.
Precision Design-Assist in High-Velocity Zones
What sets our Florida team apart is a proven design-assist approach tailored to the unique demands of hurricane-resistant construction. By collaborating early on detailing and stringent performance criteria, we help owners and architects make informed glazing decisions when they matter most.
Our hands-on experience allows us to identify opportunities to maximize value while ensuring that every system remains aligned with budget constraints, schedules, and complex architectural concepts. From early budget validation to procurement and field coordination, we act as a practical partner focused on reducing risk and delivering precise, impact-resistant solutions for the most demanding coastal environments.
