The Brevard Difference
A Brevard-Owned Shutter Installer
Brevard County has its own permitting process, its own design pressures, its own coastal exposure categories. National "shutter" companies regularly underspec products for Brevard — leading to failed inspections, returned permits, and wasted weeks. We've been pulling Brevard County permits since the 90s, and our specialists know the difference between Wind Zone 3 (West Melbourne) and Wind Zone 4 (Indian Harbour Beach) without looking at a chart.
Our Brevard service area covers Titusville, Mims, Port St. John, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral, Merritt Island, Rockledge, Viera, Suntree, Melbourne, West Melbourne, Eau Gallie, Indialantic, Indian Harbour Beach, Satellite Beach, Palm Bay, Malabar, Grant-Valkaria, Barefoot Bay, and Micco. One crew, one phone number.
Every Brevard install includes the wind mitigation paperwork your Florida insurance carrier needs to discount your premium — typically 15–30% off the wind portion of your policy.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What hurricane shutters does Brevard County permit?+
Brevard County permits any shutter system that passes Florida Building Code's Large Missile Test (TAS 201/202/203) and meets the design pressure requirements for your specific property. That includes aluminum panels, accordion shutters, roll-down shutters, Bahama shutters, colonial shutters, and approved fabric storm panels.
How much do hurricane shutters cost in Brevard County?+
In Brevard, removable hurricane panels typically install at $15–$25/sq ft, accordion shutters $25–$45/sq ft, Bahama shutters $35–$55/sq ft, and motorized roll-downs $50–$90/sq ft. Most Brevard homes are protected for $4,000–$15,000 depending on opening count.
Do all Brevard homes need hurricane shutters?+
Florida code requires either impact-rated glass OR approved hurricane shutters covering every glazed opening on a Brevard home built or remodeled after 2002. Older homes are grandfathered, but insurance carriers strongly prefer (and discount) homes with shutters or impact glass.
How long does Brevard County permitting take?+
Brevard's residential shutter permits generally turn around in 7–14 business days. We file electronically, monitor status daily, and schedule inspection the day the permit issues — most projects start install within 3–5 weeks of contract.
