What are Hurricane Shutters and Do I Need Them in Florida?

Florida weather is notorious for humidity and storms. Florida natives take preventative measures like trimming trees, stocking their pantry, fueling the generator and protecting their home to minimize the aftermath of a hurricane. Technology has allowed us to have a more stylish, effective and efficient approach to protecting our home during hurricane season. The entry points of your Florida home, i.e. windows and doors, are the most vulnerable points and can drastically alter the outcome in a hurricane. In addition to protecting your home, hurricane shutters protect your family and keep your belongings safe and dry.

Hurricane shutters avoid the initial break by protecting those barriers from the wind and debris thus minimizing the hurricane damage.
