Reduced Noise

Peace and quiet are important benefits that WinGuard® hurricane windows and doors offer. Common outdoor disturbances, like lawn mowers, barking dogs, airplanes, and thunder, are noticeably reduced.

How do WinGuard® Windows Reduce Noise?

Our impact-resistant glass absorbs sound to keep your home more peaceful. While WinGuard® windows and doors are not soundproof, they do reduce common noise.

Barking Dogs

Whether it’s your neighbor’s pet or one three doors down, barking dogs can disrupt your day and keep you up at night.

Lawn Mower

Nothing ruins a weekend sleep-in or nap like the sound of a lawn mower.
 

Traffic and Sirens

From honking to emergency sirens, the ruckus that comes from traffic can create noise pollution in your home.

Construction

Even with restrictions in place, construction sites begin operating early, and the sounds of loud machinery can make peace and quiet impossible.
 

Thunder

During a weather event, or even just a seasonal storm, the crashing sound of thunder can be unsettling — especially for little ones.
 

Neighbor’s Party

Are your neighbors social butterflies? Loud parties and festivities that go a little too late and get a little too loud can intrude on the calm of your own home.
