Wildland rated doors
March 2009
Garage Doors, Incorporated introduces its new line of doors designed to meet the "Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area" code in California. This new amendment to the California Building Standards Commission introduced on September 20, 2005 calls for unique production techniques. Any of our door series can be made to meet the new code. Doors meeting the specification will include the subtitle "Wildland Rated" on all approval drawings. Homes built in California within these Wildland Fire areas are required to meet this specification. We stand ready to quote as needed. Please call Tricia at 800.223.9795 for more information.

GDI is listed as one of the companies "Opening New Doors" through our innovative garage door offerings. An online version of the article can be found here.
