Merritt Island homeowners face unique weather challenges because the land sits between the Indian River Lagoon and the Banana River. Atlantic Storm Protection provides custom hurricane shutters designed to withstand the high wind speeds of our coastal environment.
We offer reliable, code-approved systems that keep your family and property safe during the Atlantic hurricane season.
Living on the island means your home is constantly exposed to salt air and sudden weather shifts. Our Cocoa-based team has spent over 20 years installing shutters that can handle the humidity and the famous 3 PM summer thunderstorms.
We focus on providing a noticeably better product that performs when it matters most.
Whether you live near Sykes Creek or closer to the Cocoa Beach corridor, our shutters provide the durability required for Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ).
Merritt Island homes face higher wind speeds and corrosive salt air from the surrounding lagoons and the Atlantic. Investing in high-quality hurricane shutters ensures your home meets Florida Building Code requirements.
These systems protect your glass and structural integrity during major storms, providing peace of mind for local families who want permanent safety solutions.
We do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every opening in your home is unique. Our team takes precise measurements to ensure a tight, secure fit that prevents wind from getting behind the shutter.
This custom attention is vital for homes near the water where wind pressure is most intense.
We help you choose the right style for your home, from accordion shutters to roll-down systems.
Roll-down shutters are the preferred choice for Merritt Island residents who value convenience and security. These systems deploy in seconds with a manual crank or an electric motor.
They provide a sleek look that fits modern riverside architecture while offering heavy-duty defense against flying debris and the high-velocity winds common on the Space Coast.
For homeowners between 30 and 65 years old, ease of use is a top priority. You can secure your entire house in minutes without lifting heavy plywood or climbing tall ladders. Beyond storm safety, roll-down shutters provide excellent noise reduction and light control.
They also act as a theft deterrent when you are away from home. We use premium powder-coated aluminum that stays looking new even after years of exposure to the Florida sun.
Merritt Island’s proximity to Sykes Creek and the coast means salt air constantly hits your window hardware. We use salt-air-resistant shutters with specialized powder-coated finishes and stainless steel components.
This prevents the corrosion and jamming common with cheaper systems installed by companies that do not understand our local coastal environment and moisture levels.
Many “big box” installers use standard hardware that rusts within a few seasons. This leads to shutters that are difficult to close when a storm is actually approaching. Because we are locally owned and operated in Cocoa, we know exactly which materials hold up against the salt spray.
We select every component to ensure your shutters glide smoothly for years. Our goal is to provide a system that works perfectly every time you need it.
We are a family-owned company based in Cocoa that never uses subcontractors for installation. Our own trained employees handle every Merritt Island project from the initial measurement to the final building department inspection.
This ensures your shutters exceed building codes and function perfectly, even if our price is slightly higher than that of less experienced installers.
Quality and accountability stay with us from start to finish. When you call our office, you talk to people who live in your community. We understand the local permitting process in Brevard County and the specific requirements for neighborhoods near Cocoa Beach.
Our customers see the value in our expert installation and clean, detailed workmanship. We stand behind our work long after the storm season ends.
High-quality hurricane shutters provide a significant return on investment through insurance premium reductions. Florida insurance companies often offer credits for homes with fully protected openings. Our code-approved installations help you qualify for these savings while increasing the resale value of your property in neighborhoods across Merritt Island and the Space Coast.
To get these discounts, your shutters must meet current Florida Building Codes. We provide the documentation you need for a wind mitigation inspection.
This proof of protection can lead to a lower annual premium, which helps the shutters pay for themselves over time.
Protecting your home’s “envelope” is the best way to prevent catastrophic damage and keep your insurance costs manageable in our coastal state.
