Why Choose Aluminum?

Many people living in Florida understand there are hurricane threats very often. They often look for hurricane shutters with the best protection to save their property. Three of the most popular materials used in hurricane protection are steel, plywood, and aluminum. Here at Johnson Aluminum Products we only use aluminum for many reasons.

Aluminum is perhaps the best shutter protection material on the market. Not only weighing less than steel, but it also is double in thickness and more protective than steel panels. This makes it a better candidate for hurricane protection. Aluminum storm panels will be less of a hassle to deploy since they will weigh less. The reason many homeowners dread deploying their shutters every hurricane season is because of how heavy the steel storm panels are. Transitioning to aluminum will make it easier to deploy because they will be easier to take on and off as well as offer more protection to your house giving you the best of both worlds.

The worst material is plywood because it cannot be reused and is not nearly as strong as steel or aluminum. The more it rains and moistens the plywood, the softer it will get therefore providing less protection to your expensive home. When preparing to protect your property, invest in quality hurricane shutters.
