Imagine being able to leave your furniture out on your patio during the next storm! Storm screens allow you to do just that. Constructed of a technologically advanced fabric (95% solid 5% porous), the enclosure itself is "wrapped", allowing your furniture and belongings to remain on your patio, porch, lanai, balcony or veranda.
The combination of material and installation technique allows both wind and flying debris to decelerate upon impact, dissipating that powerful energy prior to its striking your building, thereby saving the structure from harm. In laboratory tests when hurricane forced winds struck this product, the barrier restricted through-flow of air to three miles per hour. An added benefit of a storm screens system is water intrusion protection.
This product is 95% solid, preventing all but a small amount of rain from getting through the screen. As a result, the water damage - one of the most costly elements of a hurricane - is greatly curtailed around the openings of the structure. Yet the material still allows natural light in and you to see out. Due to the ease and method with which the storm screens system is installed, building entrances can be left open until the last minute. In the event of a fire or other life-threatening emergency occurs, occupants can easily exit the building. Since the storm screens system is a fabric, it weighs 90% less than aluminum panels and can be folded for easy and efficient storage.
