Is Your Home Ready When a Storm Hits?
Alabama storm season doesn't wait. Folkers designs and installs custom storm shutters that have stood up to some of the most powerful hurricanes on record — Ivan, Katrina, Sally, and more. Protection you can see. Strength you can count on.
Unprotected Windows Are Your Home's Biggest Vulnerability
Flying debris is what breaches homes during a hurricane. Once a window or door fails, wind pressure enters the structure — and the damage multiplies fast.
Plywood Isn't a Real Solution
Last-minute plywood offers minimal protection, doesn't meet Alabama building code standards, and leaves your home exposed every season.
Security Gaps Between Storms
Unprotected windows are year-round security vulnerabilities. Storm shutters add a locked physical barrier that deters break-ins long after hurricane season ends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about entry door installation
Do I need shutters if I have impact windows?
Impact windows provide full certified protection on their own. Many homeowners still add shutters for extra peace of mind, light control, or curb appeal.
Are your shutters rated for Alabama building codes?
Yes. Our shutters are engineered to withstand up to 200 MPH and meet Miami-Dade impact standards — exceeding most Alabama municipal requirements.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing options are available to help Alabama homeowners get started without waiting.
Do you use subcontractors?
Never. Only trained Folkers in-house professionals handle your installation — a standard we’ve held since 1972.
