Are Impact Windows Soundproof?
I get asked this almost five times a day every day, whether it’s at a family barbecue or sitting with a customer. People are really curious about this technology because we are taught from a young age that glass is very fragile and dangerous. That is the image a lot of people have of old school glass and how dangerous it is — and so do I!

SOUNDPROOF IMPACT WINDOWS
Density & Thickness of Glass
When you think of glass being able to be so strong it prevents a break in it’s difficult to understand because it contradicts everything we’ve grown up knowing, experiencing and understanding. So, can impact windows break? Kind of. It is a tricky question. They will break, but they will not compromise the integrity of inside the home. I mean that the elements from outside are not going to come in simply because the window breaks, similarly to a windshield. This is because of the laminate layer inside the glass. Whether the window is considered bullet proof, hurricane proof, or can withstand other intense elements, it is all due to the density and thickness of the glass, the stability of the frame that supports it, and the installation of the windows and doors.
How Much Can an Impact Window Take?
We’ve shot bullets at glass, tried to break in with crowbars, dropped them off forklifts, thrown rocks as hard as possible, taken a sledgehammer to them, thrown 20-pound dumbbells off a three-story building at the glass, and more — and NONE of them get through. Water, wind, and debris still can’t get through after all of that!

It's Time to Replace
But how do you know? And how do you choose the best option for your home?
Selecting the right replacement windows or doors can be challenging. Many people find themselves chasing down estimates or sifting through product catalogs when they should be enjoying the benefits of new doors and windows inside their home, such as how durable they are against hurricane winds, bullets, break-ins, and more.
Replacing windows and doors can be much easier. You can eliminate much of the stress of repairs and replacements with four key components: a free home consultation, a highly detailed proposal on what to expect, final measurements and order to the manufacturer, and a seamless installation that’s always on schedule.
When you work with Mister Window, you can always expect a knowledgeable team that delivers custom options and quality communication through the entire replacement and installation process, as we’ve been doing since we opened our doors in 1977.

The window ordering and install process went very well. Pony did a great job of orchestrating the install date despite having a very narrow install window to work with. Kept me informed of progress. Andrew was my install leader and did a superb job. He was on top of the install at all times. Worked problems as they arose and came up with creative solutions to keep the project moving. Andrew made sure the job site was cleaned up at the end of each day, worked around my schedule, and took a personal interest in making sure the job was done right. I love the windows. They look great and I feel safer with them installed. I would definitely recommend this company and Andrew, in particular. Thanks for a great job guys!

Mister Window did an awesome job on my window installation. They installed 5 windows in about 6 hours, and everything was clean as can be when they finished. The team of Andrew, Hugo, and Joe were terrific. They even worked around my crazy puppy all day"
