FAQ:
Q: Should I just be concerned about windows on the east side of the house?
A: No, in fact its recommended that you shutter all glazed openings even gable end vents.
Q: I do not live directly on the beach, why would i need storm panels?
A: Even though your residence may not reside on the beach itself, much of the damage you will endure during a storm is caused by debris being ripped off the buildings between your residence and the beach. The fact of the matter is even though the people who live on the beach may have to endure a small amount of debris, when compared to the houses that are more inland the amount is substancially differrent. Thus more damage can be caused on your property.

- convenient (can be rolled up, layed flat, or hung for easy storage)
- translucent (allows light to travel through)
- attractinve (offer a flat clean look once they are set up)
Q: What is involved in setting up these panels, does it requires a special tool?
A: All you would require is a screwdriver, or the wing-nuts (which we provide) depending on the method of installation that you choose.
