In Florida, preparation is everything. With advance notice before hurricane season storms, having storm panels on hand ensures your home or business stays protected when the weather turns severe. These removable barriers offer reliable defense against high winds and flying debris, making them one of the most efficient and affordable storm protection solutions available.
Let’s explore why storm panels remain a popular choice for Edgewater and Central Florida property owners.
Among the many hurricane shutter options available, storm panels consistently stand out as a cost-effective and durable solution. Here’s why they’re a trusted favorite:
Affordability: Storm panels are among the most budget-friendly hurricane protection options. Plus, many insurers offer discounts for properties equipped with approved storm protection systems.
Lifespan: Because storm panels are only installed when needed, they experience minimal wear. With proper care and storage, they can last for decades, providing long-term savings.
Security: Once in place, these panels form a solid barrier that shields windows and doors from wind, rain, and debris. Even if you must evacuate, your home remains secure while you’re away.
Ease of Care: Maintenance is virtually effortless. If mounted on permanent tracks, they may need occasional cleaning for appearance, but otherwise, no ongoing upkeep is required.
Storage: Lightweight and compact, storm panels stack efficiently — roughly seven panels fit into just one inch of space, making them easy to store in a garage or shed until needed.
Dulando Edgewater proudly installs hurricane-rated storm panels from Eastern Metal Supply (EMS) — a company known for its commitment to service, quality, and safety-tested materials.
