Fabric hurricane shutters are new on the market, and are perhaps the most cost effective way of protecting your home or business from hurricanes and violent storms. Made from a high quality durable PVC material, fabric shutters cover up windows and other openings easily and effectively. They protect your home or business while also keeping all of the element's like rain water out.
The most popular brand of fabric hurricane shutters is Fabric-Shield, manufactured by Wayne Dalton. They meet all South Florida Building Codes and provide the same amount of protection as a metal storm shutter, but only cost you a fraction of the price and installation time.

So how good can fabric hurricane shutters really protect your home or business? Well considering the same material in fabric shutters have been used to cover entire stadiums, and protect hangar doors for commercial aircraft, I would say it is some pretty tough stuff.
Unique Features of Fabric Shutters
If being made of fabric wasn't unique enough, fabric hurricane shutters are also made to be translucent, so some sunlight can still enter your home or business. This is a major advantage over traditional hurricane shutters, since they block out sunlight totally. Another unique feature is the fact that they can be rolled up tightly, so when they are compact they only take up a few inches of space.
Sizes Available
Usually fabric hurricane shutters come in the same size as standard windows and other openings, but also can be custom tailored to fit a specific area or window.
Storage of Fabric Hurricane Shutters
Storage is really a main attraction for this type of hurricane shutter. Fabric shutters can be rolled up and easily put away, hung vertically or laid flat on the ground until the next time they are needed. Also with designs like the roll up fabric shutter, they can be opened or closed with a simple pull of a rope or electric motor. Overall though, the reason fabric storm shutters are so great is because fabric cannot break into pieces, so therefore if debris should penetrate it, the shutter will still be intact and remain protecting your home or business.
