The Silverthornes’ life changed one afternoon after returning home from a relaxing family beach vacation. Their front door hadn’t survived a high-wind storm that had blown through their Florida neighborhood the night before—a common occurrence in their area. The storm left behind splintered wood panels, broken glass, and an unsettling, strange sense of exposure to the busy street. The lock had been broken, and the door was pulled off its flimsy, rusted hinges, tilting at an odd angle and refusing to close properly.

Jordan, the father, was able to temporarily reattach the door. With three small children to protect, his wife, Maria, insisted they needed a more secure replacement. Their home, less than 30 years old, seemed too new for such a failure. Jordan decided that the replacement had to offer more than a quick fix—it needed to provide lasting security and protection.

After some research, Jordan discovered ARMORVUE Window & Door Company. With over 125 years of experience, they seemed like the perfect solution. The next day, ARMORVUE sent Rick to assess the damage and provide a detailed estimate. Rick brought along sample cutaways and a full range of print and digital materials, allowing Jordan and Maria to evaluate their options thoroughly.

Rick went through the entire process, and patiently answered Jordan’s many questions, ensuring complete transparency. He even extended their consultation to make Jordan feel confident in the process. Rick was transparent about the process, and Jordan felt sure he wanted to move forward with ARMORVUE. Maria and Jordan spent some time discussing, and with so many options, they knew they’d find the right one.

Now, the only question was: Would they get a custom door to match the outside of their home or French doors to give their home that elegant style his wife had always wanted? 

After much debate, Jordan and Maria selected the impact door. These doors provide enhanced security, thanks to their reinforced frames, robust construction, and enhanced security from wind and potential storm damage. That also means extra protection from any possible burglaries. Because hurricanes and storms are powerful, the doors at ARMORVUE are made to withstand these strong winds and are tested thoroughly. Not only do they have wind resistance, but air infiltration as well. They’re also rated highly energy-efficient, as they’re conducted with innovative technology to help reduce energy bills and lessen the impact on the HVAC system.

The ARMORVUE team promptly began work, leveraging their knowledge of HOA regulations. Rick helped Jordan secure the necessary HOA approvals and permits, ordering the new door to ensure it was ready upon permit approval. The entire process took just under two months, in accordance with Florida’s permitting requirements. Throughout, the Silverthornes received excellent communication and transparency from the team. The installers arrived on time and worked efficiently, ensuring a smooth installation. Afterward, the team conducted a thorough inspection to confirm everything was secure.

In Jordan’s opinion, one of the best parts about ARMORVUE’s products is that they provide a Lifetime Limited Transferable Warranty. If another nasty gust of wind blows through their neighborhood, the Silverthorne’s don’t have to worry about another mishap, budget for more expenses, or use their savings to fix their home again.

The new door brought unexpected benefits. Not only does it withstand Florida’s severe weather, but it also significantly reduces noise from the busy street outside. Once their front door is shut, their house gets quiet. No more honking horns or traffic sounds coming from the street outside. They feel protected, safe, and secure from whatever comes their way. Maria also noticed that the door’s energy-efficient design helped keep their home cooler, reducing strain on their HVAC system during Florida’s sweltering summer months. It was a small but impactful difference that made their home feel even more comfortable.

Thanks to ARMORVUE, the Silverthornes have peace of mind knowing they’re protected from storms, intrusions, and whatever life throws their way. The experience gave Jordan and Maria a newfound appreciation for the importance of high-quality home improvements. For the Silverthornes, what started as a chaotic homecoming turned into a story of security, comfort, and lasting confidence in their home.
