Our dedicated team at Lafferty Hurricane Protection specializes in hurricane protection, offering a wide range of hurricane shutters and hurricane-grade motorized screens. We prioritize premium materials to ensure your home is safeguarded against severe weather.
Living on Florida's barrier islands means waking up to beautiful ocean views—but it also means your home faces some of the harshest weather conditions in the country. Salt air, hurricane-force winds, wind-driven rain, and flying debris all take a toll on homes located along the coast.
At Lafferty Hurricane Protection, we install custom hurricane shutters designed specifically for beachside homes throughout Satellite Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Indialantic, Melbourne Beach, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral, Indian River Shores, Wabasso Beach, Vero Beach, and surrounding coastal communities.
Whether you're preparing for hurricane season, replacing aging shutters, or upgrading your home's protection, our team designs shutter systems that meet Florida's strict building codes while complementing your home's appearance.
Beachside properties experience unique environmental conditions that inland homes simply don't.
Homes located along the Atlantic coastline are exposed to:
Many beachside communities throughout Brevard and Indian River County also fall within High Velocity Hurricane Zones or Exposure D wind design requirements, meaning stronger engineering and properly installed protection are essential.

Homeowners often choose them because they:
Roll-down shutters offer one of the most convenient hurricane protection systems available.
With the push of a button—or manual operation—they quickly secure your home.
Advantages include:

If you're located near the Atlantic coastline, our team can help you determine the best hurricane shutter solution for your home.
There isn't one best option for every home. Accordion shutters are popular for their convenience, while Bahama shutters combine everyday shade with storm protection. Roll-down shutters provide the quickest deployment, and Colonial shutters offer a more decorative appearance. The best choice depends on your home's architecture, budget, and how you plan to use the shutters.
Many Florida insurance companies offer discounts for qualifying hurricane protection. Eligibility depends on your policy, the type of shutters installed, and whether they meet Florida's impact protection requirements. Your insurance provider can explain which discounts may apply.
High-quality hurricane shutters can last decades when properly installed and maintained. Coastal environments expose shutters to salt air and humidity, so periodic cleaning and routine inspections help maximize their lifespan.
Requirements vary depending on your home's age, location, local building codes, and whether you're building new or replacing windows. New construction and significant renovations often have stricter wind-load requirements than existing homes.
While they can remain closed, most homeowners only deploy them when a tropical storm or hurricane is approaching. Keeping them open allows natural light into your home while still keeping them ready for quick deployment.
Roll-down shutters are generally the fastest to deploy, followed closely by accordion shutters. Both eliminate the need to carry or store removable panels, making storm preparation much quicker.
Quality hurricane shutters are manufactured using corrosion-resistant materials and finishes designed for coastal environments. However, because salt air is highly corrosive, regular rinsing with fresh water and routine maintenance help preserve their appearance and operation.
They can. Many buyers appreciate hurricane protection, lower insurance costs, improved security, and the convenience of permanent storm protection, especially in coastal Florida communities.
Yes. Properly engineered and code-approved Bahama shutters are designed to provide hurricane protection while also serving as permanent shade structures. They must be professionally installed to meet their intended performance ratings.
Both provide storm protection, but they serve different purposes. Impact windows offer continuous protection without deployment, while hurricane shutters often provide a more cost-effective way to protect existing windows. Many homeowners choose shutters to upgrade protection without replacing all of their windows.
Preparing your home before hurricane season is one of the best investments you can make as a coastal homeowner.
