Benefits of Accordion Hurricane Shutters
Effortless Opening and Closing
One of the reasons accordion hurricane shutters are so popular with homeowners and business owners in Southwest Florida is how easy they are to use. You don’t need a hammer or power tools if you’re worried about storm season. Accordion shutters slide open and closed in seconds.
Enjoy beautiful views from clear picture windows and sliding doors throughout the day. When nasty weather comes around, simply slide the hurricane shutters closed. It’s as easy as that.
Strong Impact Resistant Accordion Shutters You Can Trust
When hurricane-force winds and debris are assaulting your home, you want the best protection possible. Our accordions are made of all aluminum construction and have been tested and approved to meet or exceed all the requirements of the Florida Building Code, including HVHZ Zones.
Accordion hurricane shutters with HVHZ ratings are designed for the harshest weather conditions in Southwest Florida. We want you to be able to rest easy knowing your family, your home’s interior, and your possessions are safe and sound. Your family is more valuable than anything else.
Maximum Hurricane Protection for Your Home
If your home already has hurricane windows and doors, do you really need impact-resistant accordion shutters, too? Many professionals recommend it because it provides a dual layer of protection. It’s essential to keep high-velocity debris from making any opening in your windows; otherwise, excessive pressure can cause roof failure.
With a physical barrier such as storm shutters, rocks, wood, metallic shards, and other debris have to get through a thick layer of metal first before they can even reach impact glass. That gives you maximum storm protection. Our hurricane shutters are designed to last ages, so this is a smart investment that adds value to your home.
Sleek Style Options for Southwest Florida Homes
Accordion style hurricane shutters may not offer the design flair of Colonial shutters or Bahamas, but they do provide a variety of style options. You can choose colors that match or complement your home’s exterior design to provide a nice decorative accent. These hurricane shutters have sleek, clean, vertical lines. Each accordion is custom-made and available in the following colors: bronze, beige, ivory and white.
Dual-Purpose Security To Protect Your Property
Hurricanes aren’t the only things that impact-resistant accordion shutters protect against. If you’re worried about crime or break-ins, our high-quality metal storm shutters can help put you at ease. It’s much harder, if not practically impossible, for thieves to get through both hurricane shutters and impact windows to get inside. If you have a winter home in Florida, we always recommend this option or Aluminum Roll Down Shutters for security.
Business owners in Southwest Florida can also benefit from the ease of use and solid protection that accordion shutters provide. They are available with push locks or as a high security accordion with commercial special locks. They can be closed from the inside or outside of your home or business. When faced with this level of security, most criminals would rather look for an easier target.
Accordion Shutter Maintenance
Operation
It is important that you open and close your shutter at least once a month. This will help keep your tracks clear and blades moving smoothly
Up Keep
2-4 times a year apply graphite or dry silicone spray, and / or wax spray in the upper tracks, paying special attention to the wheels. After spraying, open and close the shutters to ensure the lubricate is distributed.
Cleaning
First, ensure debris is removed from the upper and lower tracks. We recommend tracks are washed with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth or fine hair brush every three months to remove any dirt, slat or sand. Power washing your shutter improperly can damage them and void the warranty.
What to Use
Use a low PH level soap, such as automobile soap. Avoid cleaners that hade vinegar, citrus, sodium bicarbonate, solvents, or high PH. Once you have cleaned the shutter, ensure all surfaces are rinsed with clear water and dried with a soft absorbent cloth.
Do Not Use
- Abrasive Cleaners
- Sharp Bladed such as razors or paint scrapers
- Mineral spirits or solvents of any kind
- WD-40
