A wide variety of national suppliers, regional specialists, and major home improvement retailers sell and install code-compliant storm shutter systems.
Major Retailers (DIY & Material Supply)
Specialized Online Manufacturers & Direct Suppliers
Regional & Local Installers (Example Providers)
If you share your location/region and whether you prefer a DIY panel setup or a permanently mounted system (like roll-downs or accordions), I can help you narrow down the best specific options and requirements for your home.
If you’re preparing for a hurricane in the Coronado/San Diego area, you’ll want to look specifically for storm-rated exterior shutters, roll-down shutters, hurricane panels, or impact-rated window/door systems rather than ordinary decorative shutters. Here are some companies that serve your area:
When you call, ask:
One note: San Diego is not a typical Atlantic/Gulf hurricane market, so some local shutter companies focus more on security, sun protection, or decorative shutters. Be very clear that you want storm protection, not just window coverings.
If you tell me your home type (single-family, condo, historic Coronado home, etc.) and how many windows/doors you want protected, I can help narrow the best system type.
Where you buy storm shutter systems depends on whether you need a DIY kit, wholesale materials , or professional turnkey manufacturing and installation.
If you need standard-sized corrugated aluminum panels, clear polycarbonate panels, or basic hardware quickly, major home improvement stores carry them or ship them directly:
If you want custom-cut systems shipped directly to your house for self-installation or local contractor installation:
If a major storm is imminent or you want custom roll-downs, motorized screens, or heavy-duty accordions fitted precisely to your home, working with a local licensed contractor is usually the safest route. Depending on your region, prominent regional leaders include:
If you can share your general location (state or coastal area) and what type of shutter you prefer (e.g., cheap/removable panels vs. permanent roll-downs), I can help you find local providers or the most efficient product type for your timeline.
Storm-shutter sellers are location-dependent. I don’t have a user-provided or device-derived location for you, so please share your location or select your city below:

Once you provide it, I can find local companies that sell and install hurricane/storm shutter systems and compare them.

Depending on whether you need a DIY fix, pre-cut metal/clear panels, or custom permanent motorized systems, several national home improvement retailers, specialized online suppliers, and regional distributors sell hurricane shutter systems.
Major National Retailers (DIY & Materials)
Specialized Direct-to-Consumer & Wholesale Suppliers
Regional Professional Installers
If you need professional measurement and installation (which is often recommended for heavy rolling or motorized systems), look for regional licensed contractors or distributors like AMD Supply, Croci North America , or local hurricane protection companies that work with strict local building codes (like Miami-Dade NOA or FBC requirements).
If you want to narrow down your options, tell me:
Yes. Since you’re in the Commack/Long Island area, I found several companies that specifically sell or install storm/hurricane shutter systems:
Automat-Ed Gates and Shutters — Farmingdale
Specializes in hurricane/security shutters, including roll-down and accordion shutters, with installation and service. Their site says they serve all of Long Island.
Pinnacle Shutters — West Babylon
Local shutter supplier serving homeowners and contractors. They offer stock and special-order exterior shutters.
East End Awning LLC — Sag Harbor
Offers motorized and manual hurricane shutters and services Suffolk County.
RollShutters / Hurricane Storm Shutter
This company explicitly advertises rolling storm shutters for windows and doors and provides full installation throughout Long Island.
If you're preparing for an actual hurricane, I'd prioritize hurricane-rated roll-down shutters or accordion shutters, rather than decorative/exterior plantation shutters. Roll-down systems can be permanently installed and deployed quickly when a storm approaches. Automat-Ed, for example, offers both roll-down and accordion systems.
Important: If the storm is approaching soon, ask specifically about in-stock systems and installation availability rather than assuming a custom system can be installed before the storm.
If you tell me how many windows/doors you need to protect and roughly what size they are, I can narrow this down to the best local options and give you a ballpark price range.
Where you buy storm shutter systems depends on whether you prefer a DIY/removable solution , a factory-direct custom order , or a full-service local contractor for permanent installations (like accordion or roll-down systems).
If you need standard corrugated metal panels, clear polycarbonate panels, or flexible hurricane fabric that you can install yourself, major home improvement stores carry inventory online and in-store (particularly in coastal regions):
If you know your measurements and want custom-built accordion, rolling, Bahama, or colonial shutters shipped directly to your home:
For permanent or heavy-duty automated systems (roll-downs, large accordions), it is best to use regional fabricators who ensure compliance with local building codes (such as Miami-Dade or Florida Building Code HVHZ requirements). Local professional dealers include companies like Storm Smart, Assured Storm Protection , or local aluminum/shutter fabricators found via platforms like Thomasnet.
To help narrow down the right option, tell me:
If you're in the Phoenix metro area, there are several companies selling/installing exterior rolling or security shutters. One important caveat: Phoenix isn't normally a hurricane market, so verify that the system is specifically engineered and rated for hurricane-force wind and wind-borne debris rather than assuming a security/rolling shutter qualifies.
For an actual hurricane application, I'd specifically ask each seller:
There are also companies outside Arizona that specialize specifically in hurricane-rated roll-down and accordion storm shutters; for example, Hurricane Storm Shutter describes systems tested for hurricane-force winds and airborne debris.
If you tell me where the house is that you're preparing for (city/state), I can find sellers who specifically provide hurricane-rated systems there rather than ordinary rolling shutters.
If you're looking for hurricane-rated storm shutter systems, there are several well-established manufacturers and installers. The best choice depends on whether you want permanent protection, removable panels, or a DIY solution.
Here are some widely used options:
The most common shutter types are:
Since you're in North Texas, hurricane shutters aren't as common locally because building practices focus more on tornado protection. Nearby businesses such as Security Shutter & Screens offer rolling security and storm shutter products that may be suitable for wind protection, though it's worth confirming whether their systems carry the specific hurricane impact ratings you need.
If you're preparing for a home on the Gulf Coast or another hurricane-prone area, I can also recommend the best shutter type based on:
Where you buy storm shutter systems depends on whether you want a DIY/removable solution (like storm panels) or a custom, permanently installed system (like roll-downs, accordions, or Bahama shutters).
If you need straightforward, budget-friendly corrugated metal or clear polycarbonate panels that you can install yourself, major home improvement stores carry a selection in-store or online.
If you know your measurements and want factory-direct or custom-sized rolling, accordion, or clear-lexan panels shipped directly to your home:
For heavy-duty motorized roll-downs, complex architectural shutters (Colonial/Bahama), or professional code-compliant installation, look to regional specialists, especially if you are in high-risk coastal zones like Florida or the Gulf Coast:
If you can share your location and window types/sizes , I can help you figure out which shutter style and supplier type fits your timeline best.
