Accordion Hurricane Shutters are a very strong and durable shutter that opens and closes horizontally.  Supported on wheel assemblies, the Accordion Hurricane Shutter is one of the fastest and easiest ways to prepare your house in the event of a storm.  The system utilizes a strong .063 aluminum blade that interlocks to form the protective wall of the shutter. The accordion shutter can open or close as one unit that moves from left to right or right to left. The blades of the accordion stack out of view from the inside of the house at the ends of the track.  Accordion Hurricane Shutters provide protection against hurricanes, flying debris, theft and forced entry. The accordion shutter also reduces noise and adds privacy to your home.
