Why Choose Colonial Hurricane Shutters in Gifford?

Colonial shutters are a popular choice for homeowners who want storm protection without sacrificing aesthetics. These hinged, side-mounted shutters are installed permanently on each side of your windows and swing shut when needed, locking securely to create a strong barrier against wind and impact.

Benefits of installing Colonial hurricane shutters on your Gifford home include:

  • Classic Appearance: Add timeless Southern charm to your home’s exterior.
  • Hurricane-Grade Protection: Built from heavy-duty aluminum and tested to meet Florida Building Code requirements.
  • Quick Deployment: Easily close and secure your shutters before a storm—no heavy panels or ladders required.
  • Custom Colors: Match your shutters to your home’s design for a seamless look.
  • Low Maintenance: Simple to clean and designed to withstand years of Florida sun, salt, and rain.

Our Hurricane-Ready Colonial Shutters

Our Colonial hurricane shutters are available in several configurations to suit your home’s architecture:

  • Two-Piece Colonial Shutters: The most common style, opening outward from the center.
  • Bahama-Style Colonial Hybrids: For homeowners who want a combination of shade and storm protection.
  • Decorative Options: Choose from a variety of powder-coated finishes to enhance curb appeal year-round.

Every shutter we install is engineered for your specific window sizes to ensure a perfect fit and maximum protection.

Code Compliance for Colonial Shutters in Gifford

Florida’s building codes are some of the most rigorous in the nation—and for good reason. Our Colonial hurricane shutters are fully tested and approved for use in High-Velocity Hurricane Zones (HVHZ) and are designed to withstand wind speeds over 150 mph.

We provide:

  • Full permitting and engineering documentation
  • Products that meet ASTM impact-resistance standards
  • Professional installation to manufacturer and code specifications

This ensures your shutters not only protect your home but also may help lower your homeowner’s insurance premiums.

Maintenance Tips for Colonial Hurricane Shutters

Proper care of your Colonial shutters will keep them looking beautiful and performing optimally:

  • Inspect Annually: Check hinges and locking mechanisms for rust or wear.
  • Lubricate Hinges: Apply silicone spray to keep movement smooth.
  • Wash Seasonally: Clean with mild soap and water to remove salt and debris.
  • Check Before Storm Season: Make sure all shutters open, close, and lock properly before hurricane season begins.
