Hurricane Shutters Miami

As the season finale for AMC's Walking Dead approaches, you may be wondering what you can do to protect yourself against a Zombie Apocalypse.  You may state the obvious like; carry weapons with lots of ammo, locate and maintain a safe food supply, never turn your back on a zombie.  One thing you don't want to neglect is your home base.

Sometime after the fall of civilization, your home will be invaded by mobs of hungry zombies.  As you start picking them off your home, you will no doubt start thinking about your home's weakest links... your windows.

Tempered glass will be no match for the strength and determination of the undead.  Your halfhearted efforts of boarding up your windows with plywood will keep you up at night.  The only real solution for such a horrific yet plausible scenario are hurricane shutters.  

You will want to at minimum install storm panels, but who really wants to be putting up panels as your home is marauded by "walkers".  Look into accordion shutters or rolldown shutters that have met Miami Dade's rigorous anti-zombie protection approval process.

Get them before all hell breaks loose!

When you think of hurricanes, you think of wind speeds. You know the faster the wind blows, the more powerful the storm.  When we design hurricane shutters, we think of wind pressures.  This is when it starts getting complicated.  

During a storm, your home will experience Positive + and Negative - wind pressures.  Positive wind pressure is what is blowing against your hurricane shutters.  But Negative wind pressure is a force that pulls away from your house and hurricane shutters.  The best way to imagine this is as a giant vacuum cleaner trying to suck out your hurricane shutter.  What you may not know is that the Negative wind pressures along the corners of your home can be TWICE that of the Positive.  

Imagine a hurricane that's twice as powerful as you think!  No worries, Miami Dade Approved hurricane shutters are more than capable of handling the forces of tropical systems.

This saying may be cliche but it fits perfectly as a warning.  "Use Protection" is short and to the point.  It delivers an important message.  If you live along the coast and are considering upgrading your home's protection, please do it before it's too late.  There's just too much at stake.
