Wind Load to Design Pressure (PSF) Converter
Convert a local wind speed requirement (MPH) into a Design Pressure rating (PSF) for specifying a wind-rated garage door.
Understanding Wind Ratings
While building codes specify wind resistance in MPH, garage doors are tested and rated for Design Pressure, measured in Pounds per Square Foot (PSF). This technical tool provides a simplified conversion to help you understand the PSF rating you'll need to look for when purchasing a code-compliant, wind-rated garage door.
