Why Should I Have Hurricane Shutters?
The security and piece of mind they provide is worth their price. Additionally, preventing loss from storms plus the added protection from vandalism, burglars and simple looting after the tragedy of a hurricane is a key justification. Insurance companies are moving toward requiring hurricane shutters before covering properties in hurricane-prone areas. We currently service Miami and surrounding areas in South Florida, including Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach metropolitans located within Miami-Dade County, Broward County, and Palm Beach County.

How Much Protection
Do Hurricane Shutters Provide?
Hurricanes Charley and Andrew were instrumental in an industry-wide upgrade of the standards for "storm shutters". Standard building codes require a product to withstand 146 M.P.H. winds. The "newer standard", commonly called ASCE-7-88, increases the wind-load standard plus adds a positive and negative pressure loads test and a positive and negative "cycling test" plus an "impact test". The new standards are much more stringent and expensive to satisfy but do provide a real degree of protection. All our storm protection products meet or exceed the Dade County Building Code and product approved materials.
