Install hurricane shutters

8/24/2021 (Permalink)

Entry points such as windows and doors are usually the weakest and most vulnerable parts of your property during a hurricane. Regardless of how strong your windows or doors are, heavy rains and strong winds can still damage them. 

Once a window is broken, the strong winds will blow inside your house and wreck the interior of your structure. These winds will apply some upward pressure on your roof, which might just be enough to send it flying! And when the roof is gone, the walls will ultimately collapse and the house will be gone as well.

 Storm shutters are protective coverings that effectively prevent the force of strong winds and hurricane debris from causing damage to a house’s interior or destroying its windows and doors. 

Storms can easily send objects flying, causing damage to glass windows and doors. Shattered glass can fly around, potentially causing damage to both property and your family.

On most occasions, the material used in making hurricane shutters are aluminum and steel. Sometimes homeowners use plywood as a more cost-effective alternative. 

By having shutters installed, your home will stand a chance against destructive winds and flying debris. This will significantly protect your property and other important establishments from devastating calamities including storms, hurricanes, and heavy winds.
