Accordion Shutters vs Bahama Shutters vs Roll-Up Shutters
Hurricane season has started and many people are looking to purchase hurricane protection. At Johnson Aluminum Products we carry three different types of hurricane shutters; accordions, Bahamas, and roll-ups. Throw away those heavy steel panels or plywood that take hours to deploy and upgrade to hurricane shutters that deploy in seconds. In this blog article, I will be discussing the differences between accordion shutters, Bahama shutters, and accordion shutters so that you can make the most informed decision.
Accordion Shutters
The first hurricane shutter I will be discussing is the accordion shutter. These shutters are great because they are more affordable than the other two and deploy very quickly. These storm shutters operate using a sliding rail system that opens and closes the shutters with ease and lock them together to ensure maximum hurricane protection. If you’re looking for a more affordable option, I would choose the accordion shutters. These hurricane shutters are our best sellers and make every hurricane season easier.
Bahama Shutters
The most beautiful type of hurricane protection that we have is the Bahama shutters. Bahama shutters operate using a top-hinge design that allows the shutter to open and close with ease. These storm shutters are great because they provide sunshade, privacy, maximum hurricane protection, and beauty to your property. The bahama shutters add an extra layer of outdoor home decor that will make your neighbors jealous. If you’re looking for the most aesthetic type of hurricane protection, I recommend going with the bahama shutters.
Roll-Up Shutters
The quickest deploying hurricane shutter is the roll-up. Roll-up shutters deploy very quickly with no effort. These storm shutters are powered by an electric motor that is controlled by a wireless remote. This makes every hurricane season much easier and the wireless remote can deploy up to four shutters simultaneously. With convenience comes a price increase, these shutters are the most expensive type of hurricane protection that we carry. Our roll-up shutters are manufactured by Nautilus. These hurricane shutters undergo large missile impact tests and 20,000 cycle fatigue tests to ensure durability and reliability.
