Our Hurricane Protection Products
ROLL DOWNS
Roll down shutters provide the ultimate in security, privacy and storm protection for your home. They offer an elegant design with minimal visual impact. They also provide significant energy savings and protect your home’s contents from sun exposure.
Many advances in electronics make it possible for roll up shutters to be operated with one push button for many units, so that all of them operate simultaneously.
ACCORDIONS
Accordion shutters are possibly the favorite shutters in South Florida. They are fairly affordable and strong against hurricanes. They slide sideways from right to left or left to right.
Accordion Shutters are permanently installed for year round protection. They are installed beside windows and doors, balconies, and large patio openings. Accordion shutters are convenient, and easily closed within minutes. They lock from the inside or outside for increased security and protection. Accordions are made of aluminum and should be cleaned and lubricated yearly. Accordion shutters are considered one of the strongest shutters available.
- Rapid response to storm threats – closes quickly to protect your opening in the event of a storm.
- Convenience – no more putting up, taking down or storing panels.
- No storage space needed – permanent installation of accordion shutters frees up valuable storage space. Puts an end to putting up and taking down storm panels through out the season.
- Provides added security with choice of either inside or outside locking mechanisms.
- Available in colors of White (WH), Ivory (IV), Beige (BG), and Bronze (MB).
- Unobstructed View – in the open position the accordion is equally stacked to both sides which offers a full view.
- Energy efficient – In closed or semi-closed position accordion reflects sun’s harsh rays and provides shade.
- Privacy – In the closed position the accordion shutter restricts ability to see into the opening.
- Increases value of your property- Permanent hurricane protection is seen as an upgrade to your property.
- Minimal Maintenance- aluminum construction needs only occasional washing as needed and regularly scheduled lubrication of plastic rollers and locking mechanism with a silicon based product.

EZ-Screens use Gore Tanara thread for all the seams. Gore warranties the seams for the lifetime of the fabric. Our seams do not degrade in strength like other products. Our product carries a 10 year warranty. If the workmanship or product fails, we will fix or replace it at no cost to you. Other companies pro-rate their warranty so they only pay 10% of the cost after 10 years.
EZ-Screens use metal cam buckles that do not slip – period! Our competitors use plastic buckles that slip and do not tighten effectively. They tell the customer to tie a knot or place a grommet below the buckle to stop the attachment from loosening. You do not have to do that with our metal buckles.
