How to Make Your Home Hurricane-Safe

In case you didn’t know, hurricane season hits the South Carolina coast every year from June through November. Fortunately, the likelihood of a major story hitting is rare but there are still some property adjustments you can make it play it safe. After all, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Metal Roof

Metal roofs are known to withstand fast and furious wind speeds. While the initial investment for a new roof might be a hefty purchase. In the long run, you’ll be glad you installed one.

Metal Garage Door

The garage can be another point of entry for major damage to occur. It may be best to protect your vehicles and belongings with a tough metal garage door.

Heavy Duty Windows

Broken glass isn’t only dangerous for your skin but it can also allow rainfall and gusts of wind to invade your home and cause chaos. Heavy duty windows that are shatter-proof will not only guarantee that your home is safe from hurricanes, but it can also deter burglars from breaking and entering.

Fiberglass Front Door

Just like your garage door, the front door of your home is the gateway to all of your property. Hurricane-proof doors often resemble your typical wooden front door while being made of fiberglass.
