Impact Shutters
Dependable impact shutters for
every property and budget.
A full range of impact-rated systems — accordion, roll-down and storm panels — measured per opening and installed by our own crews. Engineered for performance, designed to look like part of the house.
The three systems
Which shutter fits the opening
Accordion Shutters
Permanently mounted beside the opening and pulled across on a track when a storm is named. The most common choice for a full house because nothing has to be carried or stored.
- Stays on the building year-round
- Closes by hand in seconds per opening
- Lockable from inside for security
- Best cost per opening on a whole-home job
Roll-Down Shutters
Housed in a headbox above the opening and lowered with a crank or a motor. The least visible system when open and the fastest to close on a large elevation.
- Manual crank or motorised operation
- Blocks light and heat completely when down
- Adds everyday privacy and sound damping
- Ideal for tall or hard-to-reach openings
Storm Panels
Corrugated aluminium or clear polycarbonate panels that bolt into tracks before a storm and come off afterwards. The lowest upfront cost per opening.
- Lowest investment of the three systems
- Clear panels keep daylight during a storm
- Stores flat in a garage between seasons
- Needs labour and storage each season
Compare
Accordion, roll-down or panels
All three meet code when installed to their approval. The difference is what happens the week a storm is named.
| Accordion | Roll-down | Storm panels | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to close a whole house | 15–30 minutes | 5–15 minutes, faster if motorised | 1–3 hours |
| Stored on the building | Yes | Yes | No — needs garage space |
| Visible when open | Stacked beside the opening | Headbox above the opening | Only the tracks |
| Daylight when closed | Blocked | Blocked | Clear panels let light through |
| Everyday privacy and shade | Partial | Full | None |
| Motorised option | No | Yes | No |
| Upfront investment | Middle | Highest | Lowest |
| Best for | Whole-home protection | Large or high openings, second homes | Budget projects and rentals |

Straight answers
What owners ask about shutters
What is the best hurricane protection for my property?
It depends on your openings, budget and how often you'll need to deploy it. Accordion shutters suit most homes, roll-down shutters add remote convenience and daily light control, and storm panels are the most economical for large or secondary openings. We'll walk your property and recommend the right mix.
Are your products impact-rated?
Yes. Every system we install is engineered and tested to meet Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade NOA requirements for wind-borne debris.
Can shutters be customized to match my home or business?
Yes — colors, finishes and mounting details can be specified so the protection reads as part of the architecture, not an add-on.
Do shutters qualify for the same insurance credit as impact windows?
Shutters normally qualify a Florida home for wind mitigation credits, but the credit is usually smaller than for impact-rated windows and doors, because protection depends on someone closing them. Your carrier and your wind mitigation report set the actual number.
Can I mix shutters and impact windows in the same house?
Very often that is the right answer. People put impact windows where they matter most for comfort, noise and resale, and shutters on the rest. We price it either way so you can see the difference before deciding.
How long does an installation take?
Manufacturing runs four to eight weeks depending on the system and the finish. Installation itself is usually one to three days for an average home, on a date we fix before we start.
Do roll-down shutters work in a power cut?
Yes. Motorised roll-downs include a manual override, and we show you how to use it at handover. It is the first thing we walk through, because a storm and a power cut tend to arrive together.
