When it comes to protecting your home during hurricane season, there are a variety of products available that claim to do the best job. But how can you be sure? When a devastating hurricane is making its way toward our shores, you don't want to risk damage to your home or worse with inadequate hurricane protection. Here at Naples Shutter, one of our top recommended products for protecting your home from inclement weather is AstroGuard Hurricane Fabric. Although hurricane fabric might be the right choice for some Southwest Florida homeowners, it may not always be right for others, who desire a more permanent option. Let's weigh in on hurricane fabric versus one of our more permanent options for hurricane protection, accordion shutters, and talk pros and cons.

Dear Southwest Florida Neighbors,

Since 1891, nearly 40% of all hurricanes that have made landfall in the U.S. have landed in Florida. Nailing boards across windows and doors may protect your home in an emergency, but it’s better to think ahead. Investing in hurricane products from Naples Shutter not only safeguards your home and family, but it can also lower your insurance rate and bring peace of mind. 

Every year, hurricane season returns more wild and worrying than the last. The secret to safety is making sure you’re prepared for anything. Here’s how Naples Shutter suggests you prepare for the upcoming stormy weather to protect yourself and your property. 

Naples homeowners know that quality hurricane protection is essential to living in Florida. You might’ve stumbled upon hurricane fabric before, but you’re still curious. Does hurricane fabric work? There’s one fabric that answers that question with a resounding “yes” better than any other: AstroGuard Hurricane Fabric.

As residents of Southwest Florida continue to repair and rebuild their homes after Hurricane Ian, many are looking for ways to improve their defenses against future hurricanes.

Hurricane fabric is a popular choice for homeowners looking to protect their homes from strong winds and flying debris during a hurricane. But does it actually work?

In the weeks following the devastation caused by Hurricane Ian, you may have begun to wonder whether or not you should have done anything differently. Hurricane Ian’s arrival was definitely unexpected as many Southwest Florida residents believed it would make landfall farther north; however, it just goes to show how unpredictable these storms can be, and how important is it to be prepared, no matter what. You may think that hurricane protection is hurricane protection, and as long as you have something covering your windows, that’s enough. This couldn’t be further from the truth, which is why we’re here to help you navigate the world of hurricane protection. Remember, not all hurricane protection is the same, and here's why.

As hurricane season continues, you may have let your guard down a bit, but we always advise to remain vigilant during this dangerous time of the year. Now, especially, with record high temperatures, the waters are warm in the Atlantic and the Gulf, which is a recipe for a storm to form at any moment. If you’re new to the area or you haven’t yet experienced a hurricane, it’s important to be as prepared as possible, and part of this preparation is knowing what to expect. Fortunately, we tend to receive ample notice when the threat of a storm is imminent, but the time for preparation flies by in a blink of an eye. When it comes to what to expect before, during and after a hurricane, let us bring you up to speed, so you can stay safe.

It’s after June 1^st and we’ve officially entered into what’s called Hurricane Season. Mother Nature didn’t waste any time this year, greeting us with ample rain recently as a storm made its way past us in the Gulf, but what does that mean for the rest of the season? If you caught our last blog, you already know that Hurricane Season 2022 is predicted to be an active one, which means that if you’re not already prepared, we advise that you get prepared…and fast. You never know which storm system is going to take a turn and head straight for our sandy shores, and being prepared in advance is what we preach each and every year. So, it’s hurricane season…now what? Here are some of the next steps to take to get ready for what the Atlantic Hurricane Season has in store for us this year.
