Motorized Screens, Impact Doors and Shutters in Palm City, FL

What hurricane protection suits a Palm City home?

Many Palm City homes are well suited to motorized screens on the lanai and impact doors on the back of the house, with roll-down or accordion shutters wherever a closed barrier makes more sense.

Palm City sits west of Stuart, across the St. Lucie River. It is mostly residential, with family neighborhoods, golf and gated communities, and homes on larger lots along the river and its canals. Outdoor living is a big part of how people use these homes. Covered lanais, pool areas and wide sliding doors are common.

Martin County is inside Florida’s wind-borne debris region, so every glazed opening needs approved protection under the Florida Building Code. We walk the house with you, opening by opening, and show which products meet code and fit how your family uses each space.

How do motorized screens and impact doors work together?

Motorized screens and impact doors work as two layers. The impact sliding doors protect the house all the time. The motorized screens cover the lanai in front of them. They give shade and privacy every day and protect the lanai when a storm is coming.

We install MagnaTrack screens, including the Defender hurricane screen. When lowered, the Defender adds a storm barrier in front of the doors behind it. We’ll confirm whether it can serve as approved protection for those openings on your home. Raised, it rolls into a slim housing so the view to the pool or yard stays open. The screens run from a remote, a wall switch or a smart-home system.

Impact sliding glass doors are built for wide openings and stay protected without anything to deploy. They also cut outside noise and block much of the sun’s UV. Planning the doors and screens together lets us match finishes and make sure both fit the openings properly.

Do Palm City HOAs have rules about hurricane shutters?

Many do. Gated and golf communities often have architectural rules about exterior changes, including shutter style, colors and visible hardware. It is worth reading your association’s guidelines before choosing a product.

Motorized screens and impact doors often fit within those guidelines more easily, because they stay out of sight when not in use. Where shutters are allowed, roll-down shutters can be finished to blend with the house, and accordion shutters fold back neatly beside each opening.

Advanced Hurricane Protection works with homeowners and HOAs and can supply the product details a review usually asks for. Our team also handles the permitting process and coordinates the inspections, which is a separate step from association approval.

If your board meets on a set schedule, tell us early. We can plan the estimate and paperwork so the review does not hold up your install date.
