Why Storm Protection Matters in Florida

80

Since the year 2000, more than 80 hurricanes have affected the state of Florida. In an average 3-year period, roughly 5 hurricanes strike the coastline, killing approximately 50 to 100 people anywhere from Texas to Maine.

$1,379.3 Billion

From 1980 to 2023, tropical cyclones have cost the United States the most in damage compared to any other disaster events.

Concerned About Storm Damage to Your Outdoor Space?

Strong winds, wind-driven rain, and sudden storms can quickly turn outdoor living areas into vulnerable spaces.

Many Homeowners Worry About:

Patio furniture exposed to high winds and rain
Large openings offering little protection during storms
Water intrusion into covered outdoor areas
Temporary solutions that feel bulky or permanent
Uncertainty when storms approach while you’re away

Storm protection doesn’t have to mean permanent shutters or closing in your space.

Motorized storm screens deploy smoothly at the touch of a button to help shield your outdoor living area from harsh weather. When conditions are calm, they retract completely into a discreet housing — preserving open views, airflow, and the look of your home.

Designed for strength and visibility, storm screens provide added peace of mind during storm season without changing how you enjoy your outdoor space the rest of the year.

Where Storm Protection Is Most Needed

In Florida, storms often impact the most open and exposed areas of the home first. Outdoor living spaces, large openings, and covered areas can quickly become vulnerable to high winds and heavy rain.

Storm protection is typically needed in spaces that are open and enjoyable day to day, but require added strength and protection when severe weather approaches.
