Storm Shutters & Panels contractors in Alabama

Storm shutters cover existing windows and doors. Removable panels mount on tracks or studs before a storm; accordion and roll-down shutters stay attached to the house and close by hand or motor. Shutters can protect openings for less than replacing every window, but someone has to close or install them before each storm.

Pros

  • Usually less expensive than replacing every window with impact glass.
  • Panels leave only tracks or anchors on the house when not in use.
  • Accordion and roll-down shutters stay on the house and can be closed by one person.

Things to consider

  • Shutters only protect when they are closed or installed; someone has to do it before each storm.
  • Panels must be stored, carried and installed by hand, which is hard on upper floors.
  • Permanently mounted shutters are visible and need periodic cleaning and maintenance.

What to ask for in a quote

  • The contractor's state license number and which board issued it, so you can confirm it on the board's website.
  • Product test or approval documentation for every product in the quote, including the rating it was tested to.
  • Who pulls the building permit, whether permit fees are included, and who schedules inspections.
  • Shutter type for each opening (panel, accordion or roll-down) and the material and thickness.
  • How the shutter is anchored to your wall type (brick, wood frame, block or siding).
  • For motorized roll-downs, what manual override is provided for power outages.

How should I store storm panels?

Store them flat or upright in a dry place, labeled by opening, with all hardware in a marked container. Do a practice install early in the season to find missing pieces.
