In this video I pick up and install hurricane roll down shutters on a Florida concrete block stucco home. The process is not difficult as long as you have some basic tools like a ladder, hammer drill, impact driver and level. I ended up doing one every couple days for nearly a month to get them done. Once you get the first one up and experience the process they go quicker. I was able to do all except one by myself. The one I needed help with my wife was able to help hold the roll to get it slid into the box and track. The weight of the roll was too much on a 6 foot tall window. Thanks for supporting the channel and please sub and like of you find value in the video. Thanks!!
There are several online businesses that will take your measurements and produce your shutters. These came from Empire Construction in Sunrise Florida.

Why not show us how to do the measurements? Pretty much stopped watching after you said that because then what's the point?

Same story...... different players, but same story for many products on the market. I thought I saw the kid in a video selling mosquito repellents.

This guy sounds like he’s from California.

If a burglar showed up with a cordless drill and a few batteries he could break in .

I purchased used hurricane shutters and of course it didn't come with instructions. This is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

Great job. Do you mind sharing the maufacturer or vendor?

Where did you get the material? And about how much was one window?

@vermontmike9800

5/8 plywood is more effective, though these are slightly more convenient.

Thank you for making and posting this video! Videos like this help others avoid pitfalls and things first timers might not think of. So valuable and much appreciated!

but why so many screws so there is no great weight, each screw holds at least 10 kg

Good video. The install looks a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. I have a house in Tornado alley. I will look into this for us. Have a nice day.

Great video! We are moving to Panama City when we retire next year and will be installing some form of window and door hurricane protection. I really like the manual roll up shutter like these. I think I can handle this since I am a licensed contractor in MD and PA. Thanks!
