Each accordion shutter slides closed in seconds and locks in the middle. Most homeowners can close up a whole house in a short walk around, with no tools and no ladders for most windows. That is a big change from storm panels, which can take hours to put up.

The shutters we install are built for Florida weather. They use heavy-duty extruded aluminum, powder-coated finishes that resist rust and fading, and corrosion-resistant hardware. Like any system near salt air, they last longest with care. Rinsing the tracks and having them checked each year keeps them sliding smoothly.

Yes. Heavy-duty accordion systems are designed for wide spans like sliding glass doors, patios and lanai entrances. The shutter folds to one or both sides and closes across the whole opening. We measure each slider and lanai to make sure the system is sized and anchored correctly.

Advanced Hurricane Protection installs Bahama and colonial shutters in Stuart, Jensen Beach, Hobe Sound, Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, Vero Beach and across the Treasure Coast, from the Palm Beaches to the Space Coast and out to Okeechobee.

Any color you like. We can match your trim, your front door or the colors your HOA approves, so the shutters look like part of the house instead of an add-on. We’ll go over colors with you during your free in-home estimate.

Partly. When propped open, a Bahama shutter shades the top of the window and filters the view from above, while you can still see out underneath. Many people like that it cuts glare and adds privacy. If a full, open view matters most, colonial shutters or another system may suit that window better.

You release the support arms, lower the shutter flat against the window and secure it in place. The exact steps depend on the product. When we install your shutters, we show you how to close and secure each one, so storm prep is quick and you know it is done right.

Yes. Impact doors use tough laminated glass and reinforced frames, which make forced entry much more difficult than with standard doors. The glass is designed to stay intact even when it cracks. That security works every day of the year, not just during hurricane season.

Yes. Impact entry doors are available with decorative glass, and they can be paired with impact transom windows and sidelights. You can update the look of your front entry and add storm protection in the same project. We walk through door and glass options at your estimate so you can choose what fits your home.

Yes. The thicker laminated glass in impact doors helps reduce outside noise, so your home feels quieter. Many homeowners notice the difference most with sliding glass doors near busy roads, pools or the water. Better seals also help cut drafts and air leakage.

We install impact windows from Shwinco, Viwinco and many other makers, and choose the product for each opening by its size, exposure and the style of your home. Viwinco windows carry the maker’s limited lifetime warranty. We’ll show you the options that fit during your free in-home estimate.

Yes. Impact-rated windows often improve energy efficiency by reducing air leakage and blocking UV rays. Many homeowners notice better indoor comfort, less outside noise and lower energy costs after installation. Results depend on your home, the glass you choose and how many windows you replace.

They may. Many Florida insurers offer discounts for certified impact windows and doors because they lower the risk of storm damage. The amount depends on your insurer and policy. Ask your agent what paperwork they need, and we can share the product details for your windows.

Advanced Hurricane Protection installs motorized screens in Stuart and across the Treasure Coast. We are a family-owned company based at 4517 SE Commerce Ave in Stuart, and we install MagnaTrack screens by Progressive Screens, including the Defender hurricane screen. Call (772) 220-1200 to set up a free in-home estimate.

Hurricane-rated motorized screens are built for storm conditions. The MagnaTrack Defender we install carries Florida Building Code approval FBC#30798, according to the manufacturer. Standard bug and shade screens are not hurricane rated, so ask which type you are getting at your estimate.

The Defender is a motorized hurricane screen made by Progressive Screens as part of the MagnaTrack line. It rolls down from a hidden housing to protect lanais, patios and other large openings during a storm, then rolls back out of sight. It is backed by the manufacturer’s Limited Lifetime Warranty. We can explain the details at your estimate.

Yes. When the screens are up, they hide inside a slim housing and your view is fully open. When they are down, screen fabric still lets light through, so you can see out while blocking glare, bugs or wind. Shade and privacy fabrics come in different openness levels, and we explain the choices at your estimate.

Advanced Hurricane Protection installs aluminum roll-down hurricane shutters in Stuart and across the Treasure Coast. We are a family-owned company with our shop at 4517 SE Commerce Ave in Stuart, and we have served the Treasure Coast for over 20 years. Call (772) 220-1200 for a free in-home estimate.

Yes. Every roll-down shutter we install is motorized. A small motor inside the tube at the top lowers the aluminum curtain with a switch, remote or smart control, so large and second-story openings close as easily as small ones.

Power often goes out during a storm, so plan to close your shutters while you still have power. Many motorized shutter systems can be fitted with a manual override or a battery backup so you can still operate them without power. We will go over the options for your openings during your estimate.

A motorized roll-down shutter closes with the push of a button, far faster than putting up storm panels. That speed is the main reason people choose rolling shutters for storm prep.
