Why Hurricane Shutters Are Essential

Windows and doors are the most vulnerable points during a hurricane. When a window breaks, wind pressure enters and can lift the roof. The Florida Building Code requires hurricane protection for all openings. Shutters can also reduce your insurance premiums by 25-45%.

Insurance Savings

Florida law requires insurance companies to offer discounts for hurricane mitigation. Storm shutters can reduce your windstorm premium by 25-45%. All openings must be protected to qualify—every window, door, and skylight.

Example: $5,000/year premium with 35% windstorm discount = $1,750 annual savings. Over 10 years, that’s $17,500—often more than the shutter cost.

My Safe Florida Home Grants: Florida’s $280 million grant program provides a 2-to-1 match—the state pays $2 for every $1 you spend, up to $10,000 in grants. Storm shutters are an eligible improvement. Learn how to apply →

Frequently Asked Questions

Storm shutters are exterior covers that protect your windows during hurricanes—they cost 3-4x less than impact windows but must be deployed before each storm. Impact windows have laminated glass that provides 24/7 protection without any action needed. Both meet Florida Building Code requirements and qualify for the same insurance discounts. Many homeowners use a combination: impact windows on main living areas and shutters on secondary windows and large openings like lanais.
Budget-conscious: Aluminum storm panels ($10-$20/sq ft) offer the lowest upfront cost.
Best convenience: Roll-down shutters deploy with a button press—ideal for snowbirds and elderly homeowners.
Best value: Accordion shutters ($15-$30/sq ft) balance cost and convenience—permanently installed, easy to close.
Best curb appeal: Colonial or Bahama shutters add architectural style while meeting code.
We recommend a free consultation so we can assess your home and recommend the best option for your needs and budget.
Aluminum hurricane shutters typically last 15-25 years with proper maintenance. Roll-down shutters with motorized components may need motor service after 10-15 years. Storm panels can last 20+ years if stored properly between storms. We also service and repair existing shutters of all types.
Yes—Florida law requires insurance companies to offer wind mitigation discounts. Storm shutters can reduce the windstorm portion of your premium by 25-45%. Important: ALL openings must be protected to qualify. One unprotected window disqualifies your entire home. After installation, a wind mitigation inspection verifies compliance and the discount typically lasts 5 years.
Yes! The My Safe Florida Home program provides matching grants up to $10,000 for hurricane protection improvements including storm shutters. The state matches $2 for every $1 you spend. Funding is first-come, first-served from a $280 million pool. Start by requesting a free wind mitigation inspection at MySafeFLHome.com.
For new construction and major renovations in Florida's Wind-Borne Debris Region (which includes all of Lee, Collier, and Charlotte counties), the Florida Building Code requires hurricane protection on all glazed openings. This can be either impact-resistant windows or approved storm shutters. Existing homes are not retroactively required to add protection, but it is strongly recommended and incentivized through insurance discounts and grant programs.
