How to Storm Shutter Inspection
Windows are your home's most vulnerable point during a hurricane—when wind-driven debris breaks a window, wind enters and pressurizes the structure, potentially lifting the roof off. This inspection ensures your window protection system is ready for hurricane season. For accordion or roll-down shutters, verify smooth operation and lubricate tracks. For panel shutters or plywood, confirm all pieces and mounting hardware are present and in good condition. Practicing installation ensures you can protect your home quickly when a storm approaches.
