Hurricane tested
The average rainfall in the UK is between 700mm a year in East Anglia and 3,000mm a year in the Scottish Highlands.* So Door Stop designed their doors to be fully protected against extreme weather conditions. Door-Stop doors are tested in a pressurized chamber to simulate gusting winds starting at 63 miles an hour and up to 80 miles an hour - that's stronger than a hurricane. Then they are tested further by spraying two litres of water every minute directly at the door in their test chamber - that's a serious amount of rain. So even when it's cats and dogs out there, your door will keep you snug and dry.
