If you’re like most Floridians, you sure get a lot of use out of your lanai. But with all its perks, this covered outdoor escape can also be a real pain. Weather, pesky insects, and the usual lanai maintenance comes with its own set of headaches.

Many Florida homeowners are on the search for impact windows to replace their old or damaged windows for added protection and increased temperature control. The solution? Low-E glass impact windows.
The front door of your home should be secure, private, and protective. For SW Floridians, we know that hurricanes are an inevitable part of life. That’s why impact protection against hurricanes is also a necessary benefit of our front doors.
Many Southwest Floridians already have a lanai or outdoor patio attached to their homes, but the weather is often too hot, rainy, or uncomfortable to enjoy it.
Now that hurricane season is almost over, many Floridians are eager to forget about hurricanes and start looking ahead to better days.
Here in Southwest Florida, when we mention impact windows, what’s the first thought that comes to mind?
When you look around your bathroom, does it feel open and relaxing with modern touches, or does it feature traditional (ancient) shower doors that make the space look a bit boring? Bathrooms are one of the most used spaces in a home and deserve to be relaxing and visually stunning. The doors on your shower alone can make or break a peaceful moment of zen within your morning routine.
When it comes to hurricane protection, you generally hear about impact windows and hurricane shutters. While those are effective against hurricane-force winds, there is another great way to protect your home during hurricane season.

When you think about dust storms, Florida typically isn’t the first location that comes to mind. However, during the summer months, Saharan dust starts to make its way across the ocean to South Florida, bringing warmer temperatures, hazy skies, and dry air.
If you want peace of mind during hurricane season, installing hurricane protection is a good investment. Luckily, protecting your Southwest Florida home from damaging winds, driving rain, and flying debris that often accompanies a tropical storm or hurricane, doesn’t have to break the bank.

Hurricane storm panels are removable coverings for your open spaces that are cost-effective and still offer great storm protection.
Hurricane panels are:
When installed properly, the panels can withstand wind speeds of around 170 mph, making them a match for all categories of hurricanes.
Hurricane screens are one of the most cost effective hurricane protection options available. If you want a budget-friendly and easy to store option, hurricane screens may be the best choice for you.
Hurricane screens are:
Hurricane screens offer great protection. Screens installed and sold by Storm Solutions have been tested to withstand the strongest storms. They’ve been tested at up to 276 MPH winds and can survive multiple large missile impacts without failure.
This strength has earned our screens approval from the Miami-Dade County and Florida Building Codes, some of the toughest approvals to achieve. Plus, you can see out of them so you won’t feel closed off during a storm.
While hurricane screens and panels work well when looking for low cost ways to hurricane proof your home, some styles of hurricane shutters also offer affordable protection.
If you’re looking for budget-friendly products, you’ll want to look at accordion shutters. Roll-down and Bahama shutters are more expensive, but they can be a nice upgrade to your hurricane protection strategy.
Hurricane shutters are:
These can be tricky to install, but most can withstand 170 MPH wind speeds. While these are not usually transparent, they do come in different colors and you can paint the attached storage box to match the look of your home.
While plywood might be cheap, it’s not good hurricane preparation. In fact, plywood can pull away from any nails used to attach it to your windows and become flying debris, even in a small storm. This debris can potentially damage your home or your neighbors’ homes.
Properly installed hurricane panels, hurricane screens, and hurricane shutters are your best route to effective hurricane protection. However, installing these yourself may not be the best solution, as improper installation can damage the product and leave openings for storm damage.
Having professional installation for your chosen low-cost hurricane protection can provide peace of mind and help you avoid costly mistakes. At Storm Solutions, we take storm protection seriously so you and your family can have peace of mind. Contact us for more information today.
