ABC
Awnings offers multiple Hurricane Shutter solutions.
Most
Homes have to utilize more than one type of shutter due to space
and design. It is not uncommon to have accordion shutters on the
windows, Roll-Ups on the sliding doors and storm panels on the
standard entry doors.

BERTHA™ Roll
Form Storm Panel System
Removable
panels are made of a variety of materials. The three main
materials are made of steel, aluminum or clear polycarbonate.
Panels are attached with anchors top and bottom or by tracks.
Panel tracks make assembly and installation faster and easier.
Storm
panels are considered one of the most economical choices for
hurricane and storm protection. They offer substantial protection
at a lower cost of other storm protection products. Clear
polycarbonate panels are the most expensive of the three types.
Aluminum panels are lighter than steel panels.
Panels
are stackable and require a dry place for storage, usually a
garage or carport. For assembly, do a dry run early to see how
long and difficult the process is for you. This will also give
you the opportunity to fix something before it's too late.

Accordion
Shutter Systems
Accordion
Shutters are permanently installed for year round protection.
They fold back compactly similar to a louvered door and are one
or two piece shutters. They are installed beside windows and
doors, balconies, and large patio openings.
Accordion
shutters are convenient, and easily closed within minutes. They
lock from the inside or outside for increased security and
protection. Accordions are made of aluminum and should be cleaned
and lubricated yearly. Accordion shutters are considered one of
the strongest shutters available.

Roll
Shutter Systems
When
built into a new home Roll Shutters are virtually invisible and
can be closed via electric motor. While in the closed position,
they not only provide storm protection, they also protect from
forced entry and theft. The system can be activated manually by
crank or remotely using a motorized system.

Bahama
& Colonial Shutters
Bahama
Shutters
Bahama
Shutters are similar in design to the Colonial Shutter. Bahama
shutters cover windows and are hinged at the top giving the
house a Bahamian or tropical appearance. The Bahama shutter also
reduces the amount of sunlight entering the window. Simply
lowering and latching the shutter provides storm protection.
Colonial
Shutters
Colonial
Shutters are hinged on the side and open to the outside of the
window promoting the look of a Colonial Estate. Before the storm
arrives, the shutters are simply closed and latched with hinges
and or locking bars.
