]]> All Defender Screens use a blend of high tenacity PET and Aramid core yarns encapsulated with a durable vinyl that defends against severe hurricanes, insects, solar rays and offers maximum outdoor privacy. It also protects your structure from category five hurricane winds, exceeding 156 mph with any heavy, flying debris. All fabrics used in Defender Screens come with a 10-year warranty.

​Defender Screen fabrics are “self-extinguishing,” unlike most competitive Polypropylene fabrics that are highly flammable, break down easily from U.V. rays and can only be used in the event of a storm, under warranty.

Structurally-engineered roller and weight bars are unparalleled in strength, rigidity and durability. ​Our Defender Hurricane Screen System uses MagnaTrack™ technology that is integrated with an exclusive reinforcement channel; this is the only system in the world that uses magnetic fields to dampen the impact of wind loads and flying debris while maintaining a flat and uniform screen surface appearance when deployed.

​Self Adjusting Technology (SAT) built into every system, allows the screen to freely deploy in windy conditions without hang-ups or rewraps, common in other competitive products.

Our patented system is built for unparalleled impact absorption, delivered by our MagnaTrack technology. At the push of a button, all Defender Screens can be controlled by a remote, smartphone or home automation system. In addition, all are available for use with fixed controls.

No matter the time of year, Defender Screens can always be to be used 24/7 and 365 days a year.

]]> Impact Windows & Doors https://firstalerthurricaneshutters.com/product/impact-windows-doors/ Sun, 07 Nov 2021 11:01:28 +0000 https://firstalerthurricaneshutters.com/?post_type=product&p=303

First Alert Hurricane Shutters, Windows & Wholesale offer a range of windows to fit everyone's needs and budget. The list of manufacturers include MR. GLASS, RC Home Showcase, PGT, CGI, & Lawson.  Impact Windows & Doors offer effortless storm protection and security while enhancing the look of your home or business. From hurricane protection to security, impact windows are the smartest way to protect your home, business and family.

1. Storm Protection – Impact windows provide the most protection possible for the interior of your home. Our impact glass meets Florida’s toughest building codes and have product approvals. The next time a storm is heading your way, you know that you will be protected and safe.

2. Security – Not only does impact glass keep you safe from hurricanes, it also makes burglaries and break ins incredibly difficult.

3. Saving Money – Impact windows help reflect outside heat and regulate the temperatures inside your home. This means that you may qualify for tax credits. Glass tint on impact windows is a very effective way to reduce energy costs and save money on your electric bill. The tinted glass absorbs solar radiation as it enters through the glass, thereby reducing heat and light transfer into the room. Additional money savings and energy efficiency is available by choosing a Low-E glass coating. Low-E coatings are applied to the internal glass to separate both heat and light energy. During the summer months, the Low-E coatings will allow natural light in but will keep the inside of your home cooler. This helps provide better insulation and more energy savings all year

4. Reduced Noise – Impact windows are ready to not only protect you against the elements and provide you with security, but they also dramatically reduce outdoor noise. Noise reduction is just one of many benefit to having impact rated windows.

5. Reduced UV Rays – Impact glass allows normal light transmission into your home without allowing harmful UV radiation. Impact windows can filter out 90% of UV rays, which helps protect against  fading of furniture, carpet, drapes, and artwork. This can be very important, especially in Florida since we experience so much direct sunlight throughout the year.

Features & Additional Benefits:
  • They come in many types and styles to fit your preferences
  • Adds value to your home
  • Helps extend the life of your A/C unit
  • Provide insurance discounts
  • Will improve your home’s curb appeal and appearance

]]> Roll Shutters are installed above an opening and are raised and lowered using an electric motor, manual crank or hand operation. When built into a new home Roll Shutters are virtually invisible. While in the closed position, they not only provide storm protection, they also protect from forced entry and theft. When not in use they store in an enclosed box located at the top of the opening.

The rolling shutters are designed to cover both small, as well as large openings and is an excellent solution for windows, balconies, lanais, and doors. The shutters are already in place so you can be easily prepared for a storm with just the push of a button. The roll shutter product is the perfect solution for blocking wind, repelling debris, and controlling drive rain. More than storm protection, energy conservation, and security; the roll shutter also provides a handsome exterior window treatment that compliments any style of residence or place of business.

Our Nautilus System is extremely compact, making it so much easier to transport and install. The compact size also means it is much easier to maintain aesthetics. We even offer snap covers for the tracks, so you can have maximum protection without sacrificing exterior design.

The small diameter of the reel along with the way the slats are engineered to nest together to form the tightest bundle possible makes the difference. The knuckles between the blades don’t rub against each other, eliminating damage, and the entire curtain is 40% lighter than anything else in the industry with comparable spans!

Click the link to our YouTube channel to see our roll shutter in action: https://youtu.be/QLarU3PduHg

Features & Benefits:
  • Unobstructed view for up to 24 feet.
  • Small bundle size compared to other standard roll-up shutters. The radius on the slat allows for the shutter to roll into a small hood (box).
  • Tracks are designed slimmer, but stronger.
  • Good spans at high pressures
  • Self-lubricated Slat Lock -does not require special maintenance by the homeowner to preserve strength and performance.
  • Quiet operation.
  • Vented slats let the light in
  • Blocks the sun, wind, and rain
  • Minimizes outside noise
  • Protects your patio, windows, and doors
  • Offers comfort and security
  • Double-wall slat for wide spans and strength
  • Powder coated paint finish in White, Ivory, Beige, or Bronze
  • Can operate with your smartphone

It also folds up neatly into its own storage bags, taking up very little room in an attic, storage unit or garage. You will never have to wrestle heavy, sharp metal panels again
