Reduce your Homeowners Insurance Cost with Hurricane Protection

With the rising cost of homeowners insurance due to storm damage, many homeowners are searching for ways to save money. A wonderful way to cut costs and protect your home is by purchasing hurricane protection for your home. Many homeowners' insurance companies offer discounts to homeowners who have hurricane fabric installed on their homes. This is because hurricane fabric can help to reduce the risk of damage to your home during a hurricane. The amount of the discount will vary depending on your insurance company and the specific type of hurricane fabric that you have installed. However, you can typically expect to save between 5% and 15% on your homeowners insurance premiums.

We reccomend Hurricane Fabric. It is a resin-coated hybrid fabric that has nearly twice the burst strength of the closest fabric competitor, providing unmatched protection from hurricanes. Hurricane fabric is a lightweight, flexible material designed to protect windows and doors from flying debris during a hurricane. Hurricane fabric is easy to install and can be stored compactly when not in use. This fabric weighs just ounces per square yard making it one of the easiest systems to manage. Another great feature of this product, it is Translucent. Unlike other hurricane protection, with Hurricane Fabric, you will not have the cave effect while the fabric is on your windows. Many other types of protection do not allow any light into your home, causing the cave effect.

Hurricane Fabric provides several benefits during a hurricane. First, it protects windows and doors from being shattered by flying debris. This can prevent water from entering your home and causing significant damage. Second, hurricane fabric can help to reduce the wind pressure on your home. This can help to prevent your roof from being lifted off or your walls from being blown down.

Another big difference between Hurricane Fabric and other fabric protection:

Similar to the use of large missile hurricane impact glass and small missile impact glass: Hurricane Fabric is the first hurricane screen manufacturer to recognize the difference between a large and a small hurricane protection screens. Smaller screens have less surface area to react to an impact – so we have developed a more flexible version of our High Modulus Clip to better handle large missile impacts on smaller openings. Our flex clip aids in the screens ability to decelerate an object. Static anchor points such as gromments used by our competition, do not have this ability. Hurricane Fabric.com’s system is the only system that tests both large and small screens, and the only hurricane screen manufacturer that independently tests (already approved) hurricane hardware.

Client Review: I am a licensed real estate broker in Pensacola, Florida. I have several investment properties and I was told by one of my insurance agents that I would save a significant amount of money on my premium if I could get hurricane fabric installed. After talking with several companies I decided to hire American Garage Doors for the purchase and installation of Hurricane Fabric. Their price was very competitive and the level of customer service far exceeded my expectations. I cannot speak for every situation but I will save thousands of dollars on my insurance renewals this year. This is not a one time discount. The savings will be annually. With insurance rates rising every year I would strongly recommend a phone call to American Garage Doors.
