Customize Your Screen

Protecting a patio or lanai from hurricane-force winds isn't a single decision — it's a sequence of them. Hurricane screens must be engineered to withstand sustained wind speeds, debris impact, and the pressure differential that develops when a storm surrounds a structure. The right system depends on your home's exposure, the size and orientation of the opening, local building code requirements, and whether you want passive or motorized protection. MaxForce™ motorized hurricane screens are engineered for use in High Velocity Hurricane Zones and approved for Miami-Dade County under Florida Product Approval 8637-R15 — among the most demanding hurricane standards in the United States — and deploy in under a minute at the press of a button. Understanding what separates a code-compliant installation from a cosmetic one is the difference between protection and exposure.

MaxForce™ News covers both sides of storm readiness: the code requirements that actually protect your home, the engineering that holds up past the marketing claims, the insurance coverage nobody explains upfront, and the questions to ask before you commit. Written for homeowners, not engineers.
