Hurricane Shutters on the Gulf Coast

Anyone who has lived in the Gulf Coast area for any length of time knows the importance of Pensacola hurricane shutters. Hurricanes can be devastating to anyone who lives in this area or anywhere in the great state of Florida. Protecting your home and family is one of the smartest investments a homeowner can make. 1st Choice Home Improvements offers several difference types of these hurricane protection options.

Whether you are looking for hurricane windows or shutters, our team of Pensacola window experts has got you covered. Our shutters are installed to meet Florida Building Codes. This includes pulling a permit and scheduling a final inspection with a county building inspector to confirm proper installation.

All of our shutters have successfully passed three grueling rounds of missile impact testing using an 8 foot 2×4 shot directly into the object while not allowing the 2×4 to penetrate the opening. Isn't this the sort of protection you want for your home and family in the event a hurricane or other weather related events take place?
