ICC- and FEMA-Compliant Rolling Storm Shutters
Rolling storm shutters are vital — and sometimes mandatory — safety features that you can install in a wide range of structures. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) publication P-361 and the most recent International Code Council (ICC) 500 guidelines require shelters to withstand the high winds expected with hurricanes and tornadoes, and the StormDefender® meets every demand. If your state follows the 2015 edition or a later publication of the ICC 500, depending on your location, you may be required to install a storm shelter if you operate a:
- Police station.
- Fire, EMS or rescue station.
- 911 or emergency call center.
- K-12 school with over 50 occupants.
These roll-up storm shutters can stand up against 250 mph winds and take the force of a 100 mph impact. They also meet the minimum mandated ICC-500 time requirements by providing shelter long enough to get through a tornado. Installing a StormDefender® system in your building will help you comply with these strict standards, ensure occupant safety and contribute to your eligibility for federal grant funding.
