Wind and Storm Protection for Your Property.

Living and working in the Jersey Shore area means dealing with frequent storms, high winds, and the threat of hurricanes. Protecting your property from damage is crucial to maintaining safety and minimizing costly repairs. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the most effective measures for storm-proofing your property.

Why Wind and Storm Protection is Important.

The Jersey Shore is no stranger to severe weather conditions. High winds can rip off shingles, break windows, and cause flooding, leading to extensive damage. Hurricanes, nor’easters, and heavy rainstorms pose a constant threat to homes and commercial buildings in this region. Proper wind and storm protection measures can:

• Reduce structural damage.
• Lower insurance premiums.
• Ensure safety for your family or employees.
• Increase property value.
• Protect your investment in coastal properties.

Key Areas to Fortify Against Storm Damage:

1. Roof Reinforcement

• Install Hurricane Straps or Clips: These metal connectors secure the roof to the walls, helping to prevent uplift during high winds.
• Upgrade Roofing Materials: Use impact-resistant shingles or metal roofing, which can withstand strong winds and flying debris.
• Regular Roof Inspections: Ensure shingles or tiles are secure and there are no areas of weakness.

2. Window and Door Protection

• Storm Shutters: One of the best defenses against flying debris and wind. Choose between accordion, Bahama, or roll-down shutters depending on your needs.
• Impact-Resistant Windows: These windows are designed to resist shattering, reducing the risk of interior damage.
• Reinforced Garage Doors: High winds can buckle standard garage doors, so installing a wind-rated garage door can prevent this weak point from being exploited.

3. Siding and Exterior Walls

• Reinforced Siding: Choose wind-resistant siding materials like fiber cement or engineered wood that can withstand harsh conditions.
• Seal Openings and Cracks: Ensure all cracks or openings in exterior walls are sealed to prevent wind-driven rain from entering your home.
• Waterproof Coatings: Applying waterproof paint or coatings to the exterior of your property adds an extra layer of protection.

4. Flood Prevention

• Elevate Structures: For properties close to the shore or in flood-prone areas, consider elevating your home or business to prevent flooding.
• Install a Sump Pump: A sump pump helps divert excess water during heavy rain, preventing basement or foundation flooding.
• Seal Foundation Cracks: Ensure your foundation is waterproof and all cracks are sealed to stop water seepage.

5. Landscaping for Storm Defense

• Trim Trees and Branches: Strong winds can turn loose branches into dangerous projectiles. Regularly trim trees near your home.
• Clear Gutters and Drains: Proper drainage is essential for diverting water away from your property during heavy rain.
• Windbreaks: Planting wind-resistant trees or shrubs can act as a natural barrier against high winds.

Preparing for a Storm

1. Secure Loose Items: Outdoor furniture, grills, and decor should be secured or brought indoors to prevent them from becoming dangerous projectiles.
2. Emergency Backup Power: Consider installing a backup generator to keep essential systems running during power outages caused by storms.
3. Waterproof Storage: Store important documents, electronics, and valuables in waterproof containers or move them to higher ground.
4. Create a Storm Kit: Include items like flashlights, batteries, first aid supplies, bottled water, and non-perishable food in case of extended power outages.

We Deliver Sand Bags.  Here's More About it:

Inspect Sandbags for Damage: Check each sandbag for signs of wear, tears, or weakened stitching. Look for leaks or visible sand escaping from the bag.
Gather Materials: Heavy-duty thread or twine (for sewing repairs). Needle (industrial or curved for thicker materials). Spare sand or filler material (to replace lost sand). Duct tape or sandbag patch kits (for quick repairs).
Empty Damaged Sandbags: If the damage is extensive, empty the sand from the bag. Set the sand aside for reuse after the repair.
Sewing Small Tears: Use a heavy-duty needle and thread to sew small tears along the edges. Sew in a crisscross pattern to ensure a strong seal.
Patching Large Holes: For larger holes or weakened areas, use duct tape or sandbag patch kits.
Ensure the patch covers the hole fully and overlaps the surrounding fabric by a few inches for extra strength. Refill and Reseal.
Repositioning for Future Use: Stack the repaired sandbags in a location that’s easy to access during storms. Make sure they are packed tightly to form an effective barrier.

Lighting Protection - Action & Information - Costs, Methods and Professional Design.

We offer consulting and installations for grounding and bonding. Cable and Supports, Cable Holders, Rooftop Projection Equipment, Clamps and Bonding Crimps.
Our products offering includes shield grounding kits, copper cleaning kits, clamps, copper straps and more.
We provide a wide range of services in this field: general electrical, site and system design compliance, electrical testing, product safety, electrical safety, lightning and surge protection, electromagnetic safety, and expert property evaluation. Put this wide experience to work for you. Our experience covers a diverse customer base in various industry sectors encompassing facilities of all sizes as well as residences.
Air Terminals, Mounting Equipment and Cables - Available in Copper and Aluminum.
Lightning protection is designed for two objectives: it must provide a direct path for the lightning bolt to follow to ground, and it must prevent destruction or damage, injury or death, as it travels that path.
Aluminum vs. Copper Lightning Systems: Aluminum is 25% cheaper than copper. Copper looks better with a darker color and shorter points. Copper will last longer, up to 100 years. Old style, high point antique rods are also available.

Surge Suppressors

should be installed with minimum lead lengths to their respective panels. Under fast rise time conditions, cable inductance becomes important and high transient voltages can be developed across long leads.

In all instances, use high quality, high speed, self-diagnosing protective components. Transient limiting devices may use a combination of arc gap diverters-metal oxide varistor-silicon avalanche diode technologies. Hybrid devices, using a combination of these technologies, are preferred. Know your clamping voltage requirements. Downconductors should be installed in a safe manner through a known route, outside of the structure. They should not be painted, since this will increase impedance. Gradual bends (min. eight inch radius) should be adopted to avoid flashover problems. Building steel may be used in place of downconductors where practical as a beneficial part of the earth electrode subsystem. Air terminal design may alter Streamer behavior. In equivalent e-fields, a blunt pointed rod is seen to behave differently than a sharp pointed rod. We have the lightning interception hardware to protect you. Lightning Protection Technology requires a combination of RF lightning protection devices. Our designs are engineered for low voltage let through and superior RF performance. A lightning protection system is a system designed to protect a structure from damage due to lightning strikes by intercepting such strikes and safely passing their extremely high voltage currents to "ground". Most lightning protection systems include a network of lightning rods, metal conductors, and ground electrodes designed to provide a low resistance path to ground for potential strikes. Faraday Cage and overhead shield designs produce yet other effects. Air terminal design and performance is a controversial and unresolved issue. Commercial claims of the "elimination" of lightning deserve a skeptical reception. Further research and testing is on-going in order to understand more fully the behavior of various air terminals. Surge arresters are devices that limit over voltages and/or divert surge currents or both. The IEEE Standard generic term is surge protective devices (SPD. Other common terms used for the SPD are: Lightning Arrester, Surge Suppressor, AC Power Arrester Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS), Secondary Surge Arrester, Secondary MOV Surge Arrester, Secondary Metal-oxide Surge Arrester Surge Filter, Protector. Lightning Protection Corporation (LPC) manufactures AC Power Arresters for: All worldwide voltages below 600Vrms 50, 60, 400 hertz operation, Single and three phase, Connections in parallel with power line No conduction of load current installed on unlimited KVA source. Each year thousands of properties are damaged or destroyed by lightning. Lightning accounts for more than one billion dollars annually in structural damage to buildings in the United States. What is not reported is the loss of business, downtime and liability that occurs when businesses or commercial tenants are forced to shut down to repair lightning damage. Insurers now require higher levels of safety for commercial buildings, schools, hospitals, institutions, historic landmarks, sports arenas and other public venues, including the installation of lightning protection systems.
