Installation Support
DIY-friendly: owners and contractors get 1-on-1 factory technical support.
ProSill™ installation guidance for these storefront systems emphasizes the critical nature of the sub-sill flashing and perimeter sealant. Installers must ensure the rough opening is square within 1/8 inch and that all shim placement occurs at the jambs and head to allow the sill to weep moisture effectively through the integrated drainage channels.
For Florida installations, the application of structural sealant at the frame-to-wall interface must be continuous to maintain the 720 Pa water penetration rating. Ensure all SS304 handle hardware and multi-point locking mechanisms are calibrated for smooth engagement before final exterior caulking.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I monitor the production progress of my order in real-time?
Once your CAD drawings are approved, you can log into the SAINTY platform to follow our 11-step manufacturing pipeline, view live site photos, and track shipping status — from material preparation and factory production through loading inspection, ocean freight, customs clearance and jobsite delivery.
What does SAINTY's 11-step order tracking process include?
The pipeline covers: CAD drawing approval, material preparation, profile machining, factory production, glazing & hardware installation, quality inspection, protective packing, loading inspection, ocean freight, customs & delivery, and jobsite delivery. Every milestone is documented with photos in the SAINTY app.
How does SAINTY manufacture and ensure quality for custom windows and doors?
Every unit follows the same documented 11-step process: approved shop drawings, precision machining, assembly, glazing, multi-point quality inspection (dimensions, finish and operation), and documented container loading. Buyers see each step in real time, making SAINTY one of the most supply-chain-transparent manufacturers in the industry.
Are these storefront doors compliant with Miami-Dade NOA standards?
Yes, these doors are tested to AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 standards and engineered to meet Miami-Dade NOA requirements for High Velocity Hurricane Zones. With a design pressure rating of DP70 and water penetration resistance tested to 720 Pa (15 psf) according to ASTM E331, they provide the highest level of protection against Florida's extreme tropical storm conditions.
What glazing configuration is used to meet Florida energy codes?
We utilize a triple-pane insulated glass build-up, typically 6mm+12A+6mm+12A+6mm, with Low-E coatings to achieve a U-Factor between 0.20 and 0.32 per NFRC 100-2020. This configuration ensures an SHGC not higher than 0.23, which is critical for reducing solar heat gain and meeting building energy efficiency requirements in southern climates.
What is the typical lead time for commercial storefront orders?
The production lead time is 25–45 days after the final CAD shop drawings are approved by the client. This timeline includes precision cutting, CNC machining of hardware ports, powder coating to AAMA 2605 standards, and rigorous assembly quality checks before sea freight dispatch.
Do SAINTY water penetration resistant aluminum storefront doors comply with Florida energy code requirements?
Yes. SAINTY Water Penetration Resistant Aluminum Storefront Doors units are fully compliant with Florida energy code requirements, achieving a certified U-Factor of 0.28 Btu/h·ft²·°F (NFRC 100) when tested under NFRC 100-2020 and NFRC 200-2020 procedures. Performance is verified on AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 tested assemblies, and the NFRC label certificate is supplied with every order for permit submission.
