Windows and Storm Protection for Siesta Key Homes
A window or storm-protection project can have different goals. Some homeowners may be replacing older windows, while others may want permanent impact protection or a storm-shutter system that can be deployed when needed.
Armored Dade offers impact and non-impact replacement windows in multiple styles and configurations. The company’s window selection is designed to give homeowners options for different home designs, operating preferences, and project requirements.
Storm shutters provide another approach to protecting windows and other openings. Different shutter systems can offer different methods of operation, appearance, convenience, and installation.
Before selecting products for a Siesta Key home, consider the existing openings, desired functionality, protection requirements, preferred appearance, and overall goals of the project.
Impact Windows in Siesta Key
Impact-resistant windows are designed to provide additional protection against wind and flying debris while functioning as permanent windows in the home.
Armored Dade offers impact windows in multiple configurations and styles. Available window styles include single-hung, double-hung, horizontal slider, picture, radius, casement, awning, bay, and bow windows.
For a Siesta Key homeowner considering impact windows, factors such as frame construction, glass performance, window style, ventilation, natural light, and installation requirements can all be considered during the selection process.
Impact windows can also be part of a broader replacement-window project. Homeowners replacing multiple windows can compare styles and configurations to create a consistent appearance throughout the property.
Storm Shutters for Siesta Key Homes
Storm shutters provide another way to protect window and door openings during severe weather. Different shutter systems are designed around different installation methods, operating characteristics, and exterior appearances.
Armored Dade currently offers several storm-protection options, including accordion shutters, roll-down shutters, storm panels, hurricane fabric, Bahama shutters, Colonial shutters, and Storm Catcher screens.
Accordion and roll-down systems can provide convenient operating options, while storm panels and hurricane fabric provide different approaches for homeowners considering removable protection.
Bahama and Colonial shutters can also combine storm protection with an exterior design element. The appropriate system depends on the home’s openings, project goals, preferred operation, and desired appearance.
Impact Windows or Storm Shutters: Which Option Fits?
Impact windows and storm shutters provide different approaches to protecting a home.
Impact windows are permanently installed and remain part of the home’s everyday window system. They can be considered by homeowners who prefer integrated protection without having to install separate coverings before severe weather.
Storm shutters provide a separate protection system. Depending on the product, shutters may be permanently mounted, manually operated, electrically operated, or deployed when needed.
There is no single solution that fits every Siesta Key property. Homeowners should consider the existing windows, opening sizes, desired operation, appearance, protection goals, maintenance, and overall project requirements.
A professional consultation can help homeowners compare the available options before making a decision.

Choosing the Right Shutter System
