What are anti-cyclonic blinds?

Anti-cyclonic shutters are roller systems specifically designed to protect windows, doors, and entrances from the impact of hurricanes, tropical storms, and extreme weather conditions. Unlike other systems, the shutters we offer at Stormscreen are made from high-strength interlocking aluminum slats or anti-cyclonic canvas or mesh, technical materials developed to absorb impact, block wind, and reduce damage caused by flying debris.

They are simple and effective: they unfold from an upper drawer and roll vertically, completely covering the opening to be protected. As they are retractable, they can be stored discreetly when not in use, without affecting the aesthetics of the property or requiring dismantling.

These hurricane shutters offer a modern, lightweight, and practical solution, ideal for those seeking effective protection that is quick to activate and visually integrated into the architecture of the building. In emergency situations, their ease of operation allows them to be deployed in seconds, providing a reliable barrier against wind, rain, and flying objects.

Importance of Anti-Hurricane Shutters in Hurricane-Prone Areas.

Mexico is one of the countries most exposed to tropical cyclones, and regions such as Quintana Roo, Baja California Sur, Sinaloa, Yucatán, Campeche, Oaxaca, and Veracruz face storms every year that cause intense winds, torrential rains, and structural damage.

In these areas, having a reliable protection system is not a luxury, but a necessity. Stormscreen's anti-cyclonic mesh or aluminum roller shutters are designed to respond quickly and effectively to these types of phenomena, providing a flexible, durable, and easy-to-activate barrier that protects both people and property.

These colors offer a modern and discreet aesthetic, ideal for those seeking protection without sacrificing style. Aluminum, in addition to being lightweight and durable, allows for finishes that are resistant to weathering and prolonged sun exposure.

Choosing the right color not only improves the aesthetics of your property, but also reflects attention to detail and harmony with the environment. At Stormscreen, we advise you on choosing the option that best suits your design and protection needs.

When are anti-cyclonic shutters recommended?

The hurricane shutters made of canvas or aluminum are ideal for those who are looking for an effective, lightweight and discreet protection solution during hurricane season. They are especially recommended for properties located in at-risk areas where tropical cyclones are frequent.

This type of system is perfect for:

Windows and doors that are frequently used and require quick and easy protection. Properties with space limitations, as they roll up and do not take up any useful space or interfere with the architectural design. Users who prioritize aesthetics and low maintenance without compromising on a certified and functional system.

They are the ideal option for those who want to be prepared with a real barrier of defense against storms, without complicating the daily operation of the property.

Do anti-cyclonic shutters comply with international safety standards?

Yes, of course. Stormscreen's hurricane shutters are designed with certified materials and technical specifications that meet exacting standards for protection in high-risk areas.

These blinds have been tested according to international standards such as those established for HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zones), areas where wind, pressure, and impact resistance requirements are particularly strict. The quality of the technical fabric and the installation system, including side rails and bottom counterweight, guarantee reliable performance in severe storms.

Although Mexico does not yet have a unified standard for hurricane protection, at Stormscreen we align ourselves with international benchmarks to ensure a real level of safety that is validated and adapted to the type of climate faced by many regions of our country.

How resistant are anti-cyclonic shutters to category 5 hurricanes?

Hurricane shutters are made of high tenacity materials, such as technical polypropylene or aluminum, specifically designed to withstand extreme conditions such as those generated by a category 5 hurricane.

Thanks to their structure and installation system with side rails and lower counterweight, these blinds withstand high winds and high-speed object projection. 

Its performance has been validated in areas classified as HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zones), which guarantees its effectiveness against extreme weather events, provided that it is installed correctly and maintained in optimal conditions.

Do anti-cyclonic canvas shutters affect visibility or interior lighting?

No, not at all. One of the main advantages of roll-up anti-cyclonic canvas or mesh blinds is that they allow you to maintain visibility outside and let natural light in, even when they are fully extended.

The technical fabric used in their manufacture offers high visual transparency, allowing you to see outside and maintain interior lighting without having to open windows or compromise protection. This is particularly useful during storms, as it allows you to monitor the environment without having to raise the blind.

Unlike other systems that completely block out light, Stormscreen's anti-cyclonic shutters provide security without losing visual connection to the outside, improving comfort inside the property during adverse weather events.

Can anti-cyclonic shutters be installed on doors or frequently used entrances?

Yes, roll-up anti-storm shutters made of canvas or mesh are perfectly compatible with doors or frequently used entrances. Thanks to their retractable design, they can be easily raised and lowered, allowing unhindered passage when there is no weather alert.

This type of installation is ideal for main entrances, back doors, terraces, or patio accesses, as the blind remains tucked away in an upper box when not in use, without interfering with daily traffic or requiring dismantling.

As it is a quick-release system, it can be completely closed in a matter of seconds in an emergency, without tools or complex processes. It is a practical, safe, and functional solution for spaces with constant traffic.

What is the delivery time for installing anti-cyclonic shutters?

Estimated delivery and installation time for hurricane shutters is 4 to 6 weeks from order confirmation.

This period covers the entire process: from the technical visit and measurements to the custom manufacture of the system and its final installation. Each blind is tailored precisely to the specific dimensions and conditions of the property, ensuring a perfect fit and safe operation.

At Stormscreen, we prioritize quality, precision, and adherence to deadlines. Our team accompanies the customer at every stage to ensure an efficient and smooth experience.

What is the approximate cost of installing an anti-cyclonic shutter?

The price of a roll-up storm shutter depends on various factors, such as the size of the area to be protected, the type of structure, the number of units to be installed, and the level of customization required.

As this is a bespoke system, there is no standard price. At Stormscreen, we carry out a personalized technical assessment to offer a proposal tailored to the real needs of each property, guaranteeing a functional, attractive, and long-lasting solution.

If you are considering protecting your home or business, we invite you to contact us to request a vulnerability assessment and a no-obligation quote. Our team will be happy to advise you and help you find the best option for your space.

What care do anti-cyclonic shutters require?

Stormscreen anti-cyclonic roller shutters are made from durable materials, but like any system exposed to the weather, they require minimal care to maintain their effectiveness and appearance over time. 

With this care, your hurricane shutter will maintain its optimal performance for many years, ready to protect when you need it most.

Here are some key recommendations:

Regular cleaning. Use water and mild soap to gently clean the mesh, canvas, or aluminum. This prevents the accumulation of dust, salt, or residue that could compromise the flexibility of the material.

Check the rolling system. Check periodically that the upper drawer is working properly and that the fabric rolls up and down smoothly. If you notice any tension or blockages, please contact us.

Inspection of side rails. Ensure that the rails are free of obstacles, securely fastened, and aligned. Accumulated dirt or debris can hinder movement.

Check the bottom counterweight. The weight at the base is essential for keeping the blind taut and stable. It must not be damaged, loose, or uneven.

Preventive activation outside of season. Unroll and rewind the blind at least once every two months, even outside of hurricane season, to keep all components moving.

Recommended annual professional maintenance. Although the system is low maintenance, an annual technical inspection helps detect wear and tear, renew fastenings, and ensure proper performance during storm season.

Is it necessary to hire professional maintenance for anti-cyclonic shutters?

It is not mandatory, but highly recommended, especially if you want to ensure maximum system performance over time. The rolling hurricane shutters are exposed to the elements and constant use, so a regular professional check-up can prevent wear and tear, ensure smooth operation and detect any necessary adjustments before hurricane season.

At Stormscreen, we have trained personnel to perform preventive maintenance, focused on keeping the system in good condition and ensuring that it is always ready to protect your property in case of an emergency.

Investing in this type of care is a smart way to extend the life of your system and keep it running safely year after year.

Do anti-cyclonic shutters also protect against burglary or vandalism?

No. Roll-up storm shutters are designed exclusively to provide structural protection against hurricanes, tropical storms, and extreme weather conditions. Their primary function is to act as a strong barrier against wind, rain, and flying debris.

Although they provide a basic level of visual security by completely covering doors or windows, they should not be considered a protection system against burglary or vandalism, as they are not made of armored materials and do not have reinforced locks.

For those who require additional physical protection, it is advisable to supplement their use with specific security systems.
