Rolling hurricane shutters, commonly called roll-down shutters, roll-up shutters, or rolling security shutters, provide excellent protection from storms and hurricanes and are perfect for protecting unreachable or hard-to-reach application such as windows or glass enclosures.
Rolling Hurricane Shutters Provide Excellent Protection From High Winds and Storms
Roll down shutters retract completely into the housing just above window and roll up out of site.
Partial deployment of the rolling hurricane shutter makes them excellent for heat and light control.
Lowering the shutter half-way reduces glare, reduces furniture-fading UV light entering your home, and reduces radiant heat transfer, resulting in less demand on your AC unit and some customers report up to a 25% reduction in summer electric bills.
Motorized rolling hurricane shutters can be deployed in seconds with push-button operation and can even be operated remotely from a cell-phone.
Motorized rolling shutters are installed with an easy-to-operate manual override, so if a storm knocks out the power, you can open and close your rolling hurricane shutters at will with no need for electricity.

Beware of cheap storm shutters made with material that fail to meet or barely meet insurance standards and may not hold up when you need protection the most.
Motorized rolling shutters from John’s Shutter and Repair come with high-quality motors that easily handle the weight of the shutter and stand up to repeated operation.
Motors from John’s Shutters are rated for a load 20% higher than the actual weight of the shutter curtain being lifted, which means you can expect smooth, efficient operation with years of trouble-free service.
Beware of Cheap Motorized Rolling Shutters
Companies that sell cheap motorized shutters cut corners by installing cheap motors that will not dependably lift the weight of the shutter curtain. A small motor not rated to continuously raise and lower the weight of the shutter results in motor strain, slow shutter deployment, motors that fail years sooner than they should and result in costly repair that would have been avoided with a properly sized motor.
Always verify motors quoted for your job are rated to lift the full weight of the shutter curtain, and verify the motors quoted are in fact the motors delivered to the job site for installation.
