Stainless Steel parts
Header thickness of .125"

accordion. Center header

offering. Top and bottom
is our accordion.
A
Regent commercial lock comes
standard in our shutter which is
on the right below.
Competitors offer the same lock
as an option up to $150 per
shutter. Standard for most
competitors is the thumb "push
lock" which is a .250" dia rod
and is on the left below.
Also take note of the structural
difference of the members which
the lock is mounted to.

thickness. Competitors use
a single piece of flat stock,
.062" thick.

standard. Check out the
lock mechanism difference!
Side
panels (.125" thick 2" x 4"
angle)/blades are anchored to
the structure with 1/4" anchors
on 12" centers, adding
additional anchoring strength.
Competitors side panel, (side
thickness is .090" and on right
below) typically anchor the side
panels to the top header and
lower track, two screws into
each. No anchor into the
wall structure.
Our walkover lower track,
which is on the left below,
could be said to be more "toe
friendly".
Tracks are anchored with 2
1/4" anchors on 6"
centers.Anchors exposed to the
elements are individually sealed
prior to being installed as an
extra step to insure your
structure water/insect tight
when we are finished!

Hurricane Zone or Miami/Dade.
So you be the judge, our
accordion on the left and a
