Bertha™ High-Velocity accordion shutters slide closed across each opening like interior draperies — one person can secure an entire home in under five minutes. The blades are impact-certified aluminum with a saltwater-rated locking system, and the whole assembly stows compactly on either side of the opening when not in use.

Accordions are the favorite of beach-house second homes, where the owner may not be on-property when a storm is forecast — a single trusted neighbor or property manager can have the home buttoned up in minutes. They're also the easiest system to operate from inside, so you can deploy them without going out into the weather.
