Reviews frequently highlight clear communication, timely scheduling, and installers who are courteous and tidy on site. Many customers mention the practicality of accordion-style shutters and straightforward operation. Several note helpful walkthroughs of options and proactive updates before installation. A few reviews also reference assistance with maintenance on existing systems.

I am very pleased with my new white hurricane shutters that can easily be pulled shut even from indoors in case of really windy weather. These are so much more practical than the heavy metal shutters we had to install for strong storms and then remove again in order to see out.

I had an excellent experience with American Hurricane Shutters! Mr. Burns met us promptly at our convenience to explain his array of products. We chose the accordion style hurricane shutters for our Ocean front side. I was notified in a timely fashion when they were about to arrived and allowed to pick a convenient date for installation at our house on Wrightsville Beach NC. The installers were kind enough to wait for us to come after they were finished do demonstrate their function. I tore a rotator cuff trying to close our 30 yr old rusty shutters and now can close these just using my finger tips! I highly recommend this company.

American Hurricane Shutters did an excellent job with our home. The team was professional and ensured that everything was installed in accordance with Florida's rules. Their attention to detail boosted our trust, and they even assisted us with the insurance paperwork.

Patrick Farrell on American Hurricane Shutters

We purchased a beach house with hurricane shutters already installed on our main sliding doors facing the beach, and Matt and his team at American Hurricane Shutters have done a fantastic job helping us maintain them. When we decided to add shutters to our windows, we again chose American Hurricane Shutters. The team was professional, responsive, and the product quality was excellent. We couldn’t be more pleased with both the shutters and the service. Highly recommend!

I researched every hurricane shutter company for 50 miles and American Hurricane Shutters won my business for several reasons (professionalism, knowledge, material, designs, options, pricing and installation). Not only are they decorative, but functional and easy to install. So many neighbors stopped by to ask me who did them, that I had to ask for their business card to hand out. I thought it would be better if the screws were affixed to the shutter so the cross bar could just hinge onto the screw and then be tightened. However, you wouldn't be able to replace the screw if it got stripped. They did give me extra screws in case I lost or stripped the heads of any. Thank you Mike Burns, Salesman, Matthew Burns, Office Manager, Casey and Shane, Installers for a great product and best service ever.
