Roll-Down
Hurricane Shutters & Screens
Roll-down hurricane shutters are the highest-end shutter system on the market — fully retractable, motorized at the push of a button, and virtually invisible when stowed in a discreet headbox above the opening. We also install roll-down hurricane screens that block driving rain and storm debris while preserving daylight. VIP installs roll-downs and screens across all of Central Florida.

Why Roll-Down Shutters Are Worth the Investment
Roll-down shutters are the only shutter system that is both fully invisible from the curb (when retracted into the headbox above the opening) AND deployable from inside the home with the press of a button. That combination — plus battery backup options that keep them working when power goes out — makes them the runaway favorite for premium Florida coastal homes.
They're especially valuable on second-story openings (no ladder needed), large picture windows (no panels to wrestle), and beachfront homes where curb appeal matters. They're also the fastest shutter to deploy if a storm forms quickly — under 60 seconds for the entire house with a remote.
Roll-down hurricane screens are a related product: they're fabric-reinforced mesh systems that pass HVHZ wind and impact testing while preserving 70–80% visibility. Popular on lanais and pool enclosures where you want light and a view but still need debris protection.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do roll-down hurricane shutters cost?+
Motorized roll-down shutters typically run $50–$90 per square foot installed in Florida. Hand-crank versions are about 30% less. A typical 4-bedroom Florida home installs for $20,000–$45,000 fully equipped with motors, battery backup, and Brevard or Orange County permitting.
Roll-down hurricane shutters vs accordion shutters — which is better?+
Roll-downs win on aesthetics (they vanish when retracted), speed (push a button vs walk to each opening), and ease of use for elderly homeowners. Accordions win on cost (about half the price). Many Florida homeowners do roll-downs on the front elevation and accordions on the back.
Do roll-down hurricane shutters work without power?+
Yes — every motor we install has either a hand-crank override or a battery backup option. We strongly recommend battery backup so your shutters function during the inevitable Florida power outages.
What are roll-down hurricane screens?+
Roll-down hurricane screens are mesh-reinforced fabric systems that retract into a headbox like a roll-down shutter but preserve visibility. They pass HVHZ testing for wind and small missile impact and are extremely popular for lanais, pool cages, and large picture windows.
Are roll-down shutters hurricane-rated?+
Yes — every roll-down system we install passes the Florida Building Code Large Missile Test (TAS 201/202/203) and qualifies for the OIR-B1-1802 wind mitigation discount.
