This vertical door installation hardware set is designed for securing hurricane shutters and panels on door openings using either BOCA or non-BOCA compliant configurations. The system provides a complete fastening solution for mounting and securing hurricane panels using a combination of track hardware and anchoring components.
Each set includes a set of specialized fasteners that allow for secure installation of H-track and reverse F-track systems, ensuring strong attachment to both concrete and structural wall surfaces. Depending on your setup, the set can be used with a standard Reverse F Track or paired with a Reverse Studded Angle for simplified installation.

Florida Building Code/Non-BOCA
Requires a minimum of one hardware set every 12 inches, providing reliable panel attachment while maintaining standard code compliance for most applications. |
BOCA Standard
Requires one hardware set every 6 inches, offering tighter spacing for increased strength and improved performance in higher wind conditions. |
Standard Installation (H-Track + Reverse F-Track)
- Use the concrete screw anchor to mount the H-track above the door
- Install the machine screw anchor on the lower wall/concrete section
- Position the reverse F-track and secure it using the sidewalk bolt

Florida Building Code Formula (Non-BOCA):
- Count full + half panels
- Add 1
- Formula: (Number of panels) + 1 = Quantity needed
BOCA Standard Formula:
- Count full panels × 2
- Add half panels
- Add 1
- Formula: (Full panels × 2) + (Half panels) + 1 = Quantity needed
Optional Reinforcement Upgrade:
For increased strength, you may choose to double up hardware sets at both ends of each window for additional anchoring security.
