"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

Hurricane Shutters questions, answered by experts

If you’re installing hurricane ties, consider other storm-proofing projects. You could call a window pro to install storm windows, get in touch with a door installer to add storm doors, or just ask your hurricane tie installer what other projects they’d recommend you get done at the same time.

Clean regularly, check for rust, and lubricate moving parts to ensure smooth operation.

Considering the advantages and disadvantages of hurricane shutters can help you decide if they’re the right choice for your home. Some pros and cons include:

Pros

  • Protection against flying debris during hurricanes and other strong storms

  • Many available styles

  • Relatively easy to remove compared to impact windows

  • Customizable to fit your home

Cons

  • Expensive cost

  • Require maintenance

  • Take up significant space

  • Many require you to go outside to operate

In many cases, hurricane shutters lower the cost of homeowners insurance. If your storm panels are code-compliant with your state or county (or insurance policy), they may lower your annual premium, even in storm-prone areas. Check with your homeowners insurance company to understand the compliance requirements. Even if your insurer doesn’t lower your premiums, hurricane shutters could save you from costly repairs after a storm. 

During hurricanes or other major storms, high winds can cause objects and debris to fly through the air, which can break your windows. Depending on how strong the storm is, the winds themselves may be strong enough to break your windows, too. Investing in storm windows or hurricane shutters can help protect you against potential window breakage.
