nails really, what's the wind resistance warranty? How does this product hold up against hurricanes and tornadoes? What about major hail events and wind driven projectiles?
Actually we test against wind, fire and hail ratings and we receive top scores. Our weep holes allow any water that may get behind the panel to move down and away from the home or evaporate. Steel offers a premium solution, but with our lifetime warranty including chalk and fade many homeowners feel it's one of the best values on the market. Thanks for the comment.
"When cutting steel siding a ferrous cutting blade must be used. A carbide tip saw blade with the max number of teeth per the diameter of the blade. Cutting thin steel requires lots of teeth on the saw blade. Never use a grinder or an abrasive type of saw. Failure to do this may damage the protective finish applied to the siding and void the warranty. Always make sure to wear protective safety glasses and gloves when cutting/handling steel siding. Follow safety instructions that accompany your tools/blades and wear the suggested protective gear."

Can this be installed vertically on a wall with no eave above it?
It can be installed vertically, but we recommend an eave above due to the design.
It will leak. The overlap is not enough. Strong wind will blow rain behind the overlap. Also notice no mention of high pricing.
