Storm Protection That Stays Out of Sight 

Miami Dade Approved New Logo

Hurricane season is a fact of life in Florida. But being prepared doesn’t have to mean turning your home into a fortress or spending an exhausting afternoon wrestling panels into place. ArmorGuard Exteriors installs retractable hurricane screens in Jacksonville that protect patios, lanais, windows, large sliders, garage openings, and outdoor living areas without changing the look and feel of your home.

Our Sunesta and ArmorTex hurricane screens are Miami-Dade approved and rated for Category 5 storm conditions. When a storm is on the way, you lower the screen with the press of a button. That means no ladders, no plywood, and no bulky panels stacked in the garage waiting for their annual moment. Keep your panoramic views today, and get heavy-duty storm defense the moment you need it.

Hurricane Screens

Built for the Moment the Forecast Changes

When a hurricane is headed toward Northeast Florida, you want to know your protection has been put through serious testing. Miami-Dade approval was developed for South Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, where products must prove they can handle the impact and pressure forces associated with extreme storms. For Jacksonville homeowners, that approval is a meaningful benchmark. These screens aren’t just marketed as storm screens. They’ve been tested against the kind of wind and debris forces local homes may actually face.

That matters most for patios, lanais, and wide glass openings, which are often the most exposed parts of the home. A large sliding glass door, a covered porch, or a screened lanai can be difficult to shelter with traditional panels. Retractable hurricane screens offer a faster, more practical solution for those openings.

Florida-Strong Hurricane Screens

ArmorGuard Exterior’s hurricane screens are thoroughly tested and approved for use in Florida’s harshest weather zones. Every system meets or exceeds Florida Building Code and HVHZ (High-Velocity Hurricane Zone) requirements. These screens are strong enough for wide openings like lanais, sliding glass doors, and garages, yet light and flexible enough to use every day. The reinforced mesh resists tearing, wind lift, and UV damage, so it holds up well over time.

Our retractable hurricane screens are great for:

Pool cages and patio enclosures

Garage openings and large sliders

Grouped windows or wide spans of glass

Outdoor living spaces that need protection

Hurricane Protection Solutions

When the Winds Pick Up, Your Screens Come Down

Motorized hurricane screens stay tucked out of sight when you don’t need them, then roll down smoothly when conditions change. The screen stores in a compact housing above the opening, keeping your patio or lanai looking open and uncluttered during calm weather.

When a storm approaches, deployment takes seconds. You don’t have to climb a ladder, drill into hardware, or ask a neighbor to help lift shutters into place. Once the weather passes, the screen retracts back into its housing just as easily. Manual options may also be available depending on the opening and layout, and our team will walk you through both during your consultation to help you find the best fit for your home.

A Better Alternative to Plywood & Panels

Traditional shutters and plywood panels have protected homes for decades, but they come with frustrations that add up over time. They’re awkward, time-consuming to install, and difficult to manage on your own. They block natural light and leave the home feeling sealed off for as long as they remain in place.

Retractable hurricane screens address many of those pain points. They deploy in seconds, look far less intrusive, and are easy to manage without any extra hands. For homeowners who are tired of the annual storm prep scramble, a motorized system changes the routine considerably. Protecting a large opening no longer means pulling panels from storage, lining up hardware, and working around the house, one window at a time.

Shade, Privacy, & Bug Control in One System

These screens are engineered primarily for storms, but homeowners also appreciate their usefulness in other weather conditions. Northeast Florida's long, bright, and buggy seasons give homeowners plenty of reasons to lower a screen even when there’s no storm in the forecast.

Between hurricane seasons, retractable screens can help with:

  • UV Protection: The mesh reduces sun exposure and helps protect outdoor furniture, flooring, and finishes from harsh sunlight.

  • Shade & Heat Control: Screens make patios and lanais noticeably more comfortable during the high-glare parts of the day.

  • Insect Control: A lowered screen lets you enjoy the outdoors without donating blood to the local mosquito population.

  • Privacy: Darker mesh creates a sense of seclusion from neighboring homes without closing off the view you want to keep.

  • Daily Flexibility: You can lower the screen for shade or privacy and retract it completely when you want the area open again.

That kind of versatility is a big part of why these systems have become so popular in Jacksonville neighborhoods where homes sit close together, patios face afternoon sun, or outdoor areas see use well beyond the summer months.
