What Are Hurricane Shutters?

Hurricane shutters are a special type of shutter designed to protect your home or condo from hurricanes and other major storms. Extraordinarily dependable, these shutters can be made from a variety of materials, including plywood, aluminum, polycarbonate plastic and exceptionally strong fabrics.

They come in five basic styles:

  • Plywood: This affordable DIY method can work well for temporary protection of first-floor windows. It’s not a good option for long-term security or upper floors.
  • Colonial: Consisting of two panels attached via hinges on the sides of windows, colonial shutters look similar to decorative shutters and are made of wood or aluminum.
  • Bahama: This style is louvered and attaches to hinges at the top of the window, providing a type of canopy to keep debris away from the home. Although effective, these shutters can obstruct natural light or window views.
  • Accordion: These shutters unfold across a window via a metal track to protect it from storm debris. They’re typically aluminum and very dependable. Many homeowners choose them for large areas of glass like picture windows or sliding glass doors.
  • Roll-down: One of the strongest types of storm shutters, roll-down hurricane shutters are made of polycarbonate plastic or aluminum and are installed in an enclosed box that goes above the tops of windows.
