Shutters

A. At Majors Home Improvement, home of the Red Carpet Service policy, we recognize that no two customers have the same needs, preferences, and budgets. We also understand that some homeowners require storm shutter installation services that meet with their HOA’s approval. We’re pleased to offer several types of hurricane shutters.
1. Storm panels. Our most budget-friendly option, hurricane window panels are available in aluminum and translucent polycarbonate options.
2. Rolling shutters. These shutters remain out of sight in a box at the top of your window until needed. When a storm threatens, you can easily deploy them using a hand-crank or motorized control.
3. Bahama shutters. A stylish choice that will enhance your home’s exterior decor year-round, Bahama shutters provide shade from the sun when the weather is fine while offering protection from wind and flying debris when battened down against your window.
4. Accordion shutters. Like rolling shutters, these exterior window coverings are intended to remain out of sight except when storm protection is needed. They are typically installed as a pair at the sides of the window and designed to be pulled quickly to the center of the window and secured whenever a hurricane approaches.
5. Colonial shutters. Another stylish selection, colonial hurricane shutters look just like traditional colonial shutters, serving as an exterior home design element when not needed for storm protection. When a hurricane is on its way, these shutters can easily be folded over to cover the window and protect it from windblown debris.
6. Storm panels. Our most budget-friendly option, hurricane window panels are available in aluminum and translucent polycarbonate options.

A. Whether you’re considering replacing your front door or a set of patio doors, you’ll want wood-alternative replacements that are engineered to withstand the local climate. In the Florida Panhandle, that means doors that won’t warp or stick after years of enduring downpours, muggy weather, and even saltwater spray, depending on how close you live to the coast.
Moreover, because homeowners in the Panhandle experience sizzling hot summers and bitterly cold winters, you’ll want to be sure that any exterior doors you choose are equipped with energy efficiency features that can help keep your cooling and heating costs in check.
Finally, because hurricanes are a reality that homeowners near the Gulf must deal with, the best exterior doors will be engineered to resist damage from powerful winds and impacts from flying debris.

A. Dangerous storms often threaten coastal communities with little to no warning. One of the most important benefits of having protective hurricane shutters permanently installed is their quick and easy deployment. All of the hurricane shutters available for installation by Majors Home Improvement are easy to close and secure before a storm. But we can help you choose the ideal window protection solution based on ease of deployment and any other priorities you have.

A. The primary difference between these types of shutters is whether they’re intended to serve as a decorative element year-round or simply remain inconspicuous when storm protection isn’t needed. Bahama and colonial shutters, for example, are two popular hurricane shutter styles that are intended to add curb appeal year-round while providing valuable storm protection during bad weather. Accordion and rolling shutters are designed to remain discreetly in a box most of the time, deployed only when needed to defend your home against a hurricane or tropical storm.
