Code-approved storm shutters

Impact windows are the better long-term investment: insurance discount, daily energy savings, no deployment needed when a storm comes. Storm shutters are 40-60% cheaper upfront and ideal for second homes, lanais, French doors, and openings where impact glass would not be cost-effective. Many homeowners use both — impact glass on the main house, shutters on the lanai.

Accordion shutters (mounted permanently, deploy by hand in minutes), roll-down shutters (manual crank or motorized — the most secure option), and Bahama shutters (decorative + functional, popular for Florida architectural styles). All are Miami-Dade approved.

Accordion and Bahama shutters deploy by hand in 5-15 minutes per opening. Motorized roll-downs deploy at the touch of a button — useful if you travel often or have multiple openings. We train you on deployment during installation and provide written instructions.

Yes — code-approved shutters count toward Florida Wind Mitigation insurance credits, similar to impact glass. The discount is typically 15-30% (vs 20-45% for impact glass), but combined with the lower upfront cost, shutters often have a faster payback period.
